Walk to Canossa : ウィキペディア英語版 | Walk to Canossa
The term Walk to Canossa (German, ''Gang nach Canossa''), sometimes called the Humiliation of Canossa (Italian, ''l'umiliazione di Canossa''), refers to the trek of Holy Roman Emperor Henry IV from Speyer to Canossa Castle in Emilia Romagna to obtain the revocation of the excommunication imposed on him by the Pope Gregory VII. He was forced to humiliate himself on his knees waiting for three days and three nights, before the entrance gate of the castle, while a blizzard raged in January 1077. ==Historical background==
When, in his early papacy, Gregory VII attempted to enact reforms to the investiture process, he was met by much resistance from the Holy Roman Emperor Henry IV. Henry insisted that he reserved the traditionally established right of previous emperors to "invest" bishops and other clergymen, despite the papal decree. Henry renounced Gregory as pope; in return, Gregory excommunicated and deposed Henry, in the Lenten synod of 1076, at Rome. He stated furthermore that, one year from that day, the loss of kingship would become irrevocable. 〔(Conflict of Investitures ) From New Advent〕
