Stephen du Perche : ウィキペディア英語版 | Stephen du Perche
Stephen du Perche (1137/8–1169) was the chancellor of the Kingdom of Sicily (1166–68) and Archbishop of Palermo (1167–68) during the early regency of his cousin, Queen Margaret of Navarre (1166–71). Stephen's relation to Margaret of Navarre is unknown, as is his parentage. He is described by the contemporary chronicler Hugo Falcandus as a son of the Count of Perche.〔Hiroshi Takayama, "''Familiares Regis'' and the Royal Inner Council in Twelfth-Century Sicily", ''English Historical Review'' 104 (1989), 363; Hugo Falcandus, ''La Historia: o Liber de Regno Sicilie e la Epistola ad Petrum Panormitane'' (series '' Ecclesie Thesaurarium'' 22'');, ed. G. B. Siragusa (Rome, 1897), 109.〕 He was a young man when he entered politics, born at the earliest in 1137 or 1138. He may have been named after King Stephen of England, at the time ruling the Duchy of Normandy.〔G. A. Loud and Thomas E. J. Wiedemann, eds. and trans., ''The History of the Tyrants of Sicily by “Hugo Falcandus”, 1154–69'', Manchester medieval Sources Series (Manchester University Press, 1998), 25.〕 ==Arrival in Italy== In 1166, Margaret appealed to her other cousin, Rotrou, Archbishop of Rouen, to send her a family member to aid and support her in government. Coincidentally, Stephen was at that moment preparing to go on crusade to the Holy Land and so decided to visit Palermo, the capital of Sicily, for a few months. There he ended up staying for two years. He was very young at the time, described as ''puer'' and ''adolescens'' by William of Tyre, and may have still been in his teens. Nevertheless, in November, Margaret appointed him chancellor. His appointment was resented by the local nobility. His chancellorship was noted, according to Hugo Falcandus, in that "he never allowed powerful men to oppress their subjects, nor ever feigned to overlook any injury done to the poor. In such a way his fame quickly spread throughout the Kingdom . . . so that men looked on him as a heaven-sent angel of consolation who had brought back the Golden Age". The opinion of Falcandus probably coincides better with that of the lower classes than Stephen's fellow aristocrats.
