P.V. CLAVERIE, The succession to archbishop Giles of Nicosia (1268-1269).
The Eastern Latin clergy has hardly been sufficiently researched in spite of recent
studies. Thanks to a so far unpublished testamentary will to be found in the
« Archives Nationales de France » we can find out more about the career of a Cypriot
prelate of the time, namely Archbishop Giles of Nicosia (1267-1268). It appears that
this friend of Popes Urban IV and Clement IV was born in Picardy, then grew up in
the area in the north of France called Thierache before going through an outstanding
university career, all in the first half of the 13th century. Giles bought a house in Paris
while officiating in the cathedral chapters of Cambrai and Rouen. Though his fortune
was limited he could still bequeath part of it to a great many religious establishments,
among which the Sorbonne college. His death at Viterbe on 27 July 1268 led to a
succession settlement that was ratified by the religious tribunal (« officiality ») in
Paris in January 1269. Source : Éditeur (via Cairn.info) |
