Wazo of Liège (c. 985 – 1048) was bishop of Liège from 1041 to 1048, and a significant educator and theologian. His life was chronicled by his contemporary Anselm of Liège. During this period Liège became known as an educational center. Wazo, himself a student with Heriger of Lobbes, served as school master, under his predecessor Notker of Liège, before himself becoming bishop.〔C. Stephen Jaeger (1994), ''The Envy of Angels: Cathedral Schools and Social Ideas in Medieval Europe, 950-1200'', p. 55.〕 He is noted also for his nuanced approach to cases of heresy (not common in his day). In a letter he wrote to Roger, Bishop of Châlons,〔(The Birth of Heresy, a Millennial Phenomenon )〕 he quoted the New Testament Parable of the Tares and argued "the church should let dissent grow with orthodoxy until the Lord comes to separate and judge them".〔Jeffrey Burton Russell, ''Dissent an Order in the Middle Ages: The Search for Legitimate Authority'' p. 23 (New York: Twayne Publishers 1992)〕 He was involved in the period 1021-5 in a controversy with John, canon and provost in Liège; Durandus of Liège, then bishop, had Wazo leave for a time.〔Jaeger, pp. 205-8.〕 His election as bishop in 1041 was strongly contested,〔Jeager, pp.208-9; Jaeger see the conflict as between the educational tradition of Brun of Cologne, and monastic tradition; and convicts Wazo of a lack of urbanity.〕 with Emperor Henry III against him. ==Notes== 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Wazo of Liège」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
