The Archdiocese of Bologna (Latin: Archidioecesis Bononiensis) is a Latin Church ecclesiastical territory or archdiocese of the Catholic Church in Northern Italy. The cathedra is in the cathedral church of San Pietro, Bologna. The current archbishop is Cardinal Matteo Zuppi, who was installed in 2015.[1]

The Archdiocese of Bologna is a metropolitan archdiocese and has three suffragan dioceses within its ecclesiastical province: the Diocese of Imola, the Diocese of Faenza-Modigliana, and the Archdiocese of Ferrara-Comacchio.

History

[edit]

A detailed list of the various governments that have ruled Bologna is provided by Giovanni Battista Guidicini. In 1527, the Holy See became the absolute ruler of Bologna, and was represented by a Legatus a latere and a Vice-Legate.[2] On 22 February 1530, Pope Clement VII crowned the Emperor Charles V as Holy Roman Emperor in Bologna, the last such event in history.[3]

The bishopric of Bologna was founded in the 3rd century.

Originally it was a suffragan (under the supervision) of the diocese of Milan, but at the end of the 5th century became a suffragan of Ravenna. Because of the schism of the Antipope Clement III, Pope Paschal II, at the Council of Guastalla in October 1106, released Bologna from obedience to the church of Ravenna, and made it directly dependent on the papal See; but on 7 August 1118 Pope Gelasius II restored the previous status.[4] Bishop Victor, therefore, enjoyed the privilege of being consecrated a bishop by Pope Paschal II in 1108. But when he came to die in 1129, the Bolognese resisted the demands of Archbishop Gualterius of Ravenna that he should consecrate the newly elected Bishop Henricus. The papal Legate, Gerardus of S. Croce in Gerusalemme, heard the dispute in his court on 13 April 1130, and Archbishop Gualterius established his right to consecrate the bishops of Bologna.[5]

In 973, Bishop Albertus participated in a provincial synod of the ecclesiastical province of Ravenna, presided over by Archbishop Honestus, and held in the village of Marzalia in the diocese of Parma. Bishop Albertus complained to the assembly that his diocese was so poor that he was not able to sustain his clergy or his churches, on top of which Bishop Ubertus of Parma had taken control of certain territories near Parma which were the property of the diocese of Bologna. Ubertus replied that he had received them from his predecessors. The Archbishop and bishops agreed with the Bishop of Parma, chastised Albertus for raising the subject in the synod, and ordering both parties not to raise the matter again.[6]

A major earthquake struck Bologna on Christmas Day, 1222, causing the vaults of the cathedral ceiling to collapse. Another severe earthquake occurred on 21 April 1223, centered at Cremona; and a third centered in Bologna in 1229.[7]

In the winter of 1410, Pope Alexander V and the Papal Court arrived in Bologna, on their way from Pistoria (where plague had been detected) toward Rome, which had fallen to papal forces on 1 January 1410. Alexander died, however, while he was still in Bologna, on 4 May, waiting for the pacification of Rome and its neighborhood. A Conclave, therefore, took place in Bologna, beginning on 14 May and concluding on 17 May with the election of Cardinal Baldassare Cossa, the Legate of Bologna, who took the name John XXIII.[8]

Pope Leo X visited Bologna from 8 December 1515 through 18 February 1516, where he held negotiations with King Francis I of France. Their talks resulted in the abrogation of the French Pragmatic Sanction and the conclusion of a new Concordat between the Papacy and France.[9]

In 1568, as one of his efforts to implement the decrees of the Council of Trent, Bishop Gabriele Paleotti established the diocesan seminary of Bologna.[10]

Archdiocese and metropolitan

[edit]

In 1582 the diocese of Bologna was raised to the status of a metropolitan archbishopric by Pope Gregory XIII in the bull Universi orbis of 10 December 1582, which removed it from the ecclesiastical province of Ravenna. It was assigned as suffragans the diocese of Faenza and the diocese of Imola.[11] In a decree of the Vatican Sacred Congregation of Bishops of 8 December 1976, a new arrangement of certain dioceses in ecclesiastical provinces was announced; the diocese of Ferrara was made a suffragan of the Archbishop of Bologna, though the Archbishop of Ferrara was allowed to keep the title of archbishop.[12]

Nine of the early bishops have been recognized as saints in popular culture, and three other bishops and three archbishops have been elected to the Papacy as Pope Innocent VII (1404), Pope Nicholas V (1447), Pope Julius II (1503), Pope Gregory XV (1621), Pope Benedict XIV (1740) and Pope Benedict XV (1914).

Cathedral and Chapter

[edit]

Bishop Adalfredus (after 1031 – 1055) suffered many sleepless nights, worried about the number and behavior of his Canons and their hangers-on. Finally, exasperated, he acted. On 16 August 1045, citing decrees of the holy Fathers that in each Church clerics should be ordained in accordance with the ability of that church to support those clerics ministering at the altar, he issued a decree in which he limited the number of Canons in the Cathedral of Bologna to fifty. Specifically mentioned are the Archpriest, the Cantor, and the Archdeacon. To support them, he granted them three parts of the ten percent tithe which was the episcopal income.[13]

The Canons of the Cathedral Chapter were, according to information laid before the pope, interfering with the jurisdiction of the Archdeacon of Bologna. On 28 March 1219, Pope Honorius III wrote to the clergy and people to support the Archdeacon against the rebellion of the Canons. So that the Church of Bologna might not be despoiled of its rights if there were no person in the Chapter to have oversight of it, on 22 April 1219 Honorius granted the Archdeacons of Bologna full and free administration, spiritual and temporal, to correct and reform and decide matters. In separate letters, the Pope warned the Chapter and the Bishop not to interfere with the legitimate and canonical rights and jurisdiction of the Archdeacon.[14]

In 1687, the Chapter of the Cathedral of S. Peter was composed of four dignities and sixteen Canons. In 1842 there were eighteen Canons.[15] The dignities were: the Archdeacon, the Archpriest, the Provost, and the Primicerius.[16]

Synods

[edit]

A diocesan synod was an irregularly held, but important, meeting of the bishop of a diocese and his clergy. Its purpose was (1) to proclaim generally the various decrees already issued by the bishop; (2) to discuss and ratify measures on which the bishop chose to consult with his clergy; (3) to publish statutes and decrees of the diocesan synod, of the provincial synod, and of the Holy See.[17]

In 1535, a diocesan synod was held by Bishop Agostino Zanetti, the suffragan bishop of Bologna under Cardinal Alessandro Campeggio (1526–1553),[18] and another in 1547.[19] Cardinal Gabriele Paleotti (1566–1597) held a diocesan synod on 16 October 1566,[20] another in 1580, and another in 1594.[21]

Cardinal Alessandro Ludovisi (1612–1621) held a diocesan synod on 11 June 1620.[22] Cardinal Ludovico Ludovisi (1621–1632) held a Congregationn of the diocese's archpriests on 9 March 1623, and then a diocesan synod on 8 June 1623.[23] He held another on 30 May 1624.[24] On 8 June 1634, Cardinal Girolamo Colonna (1632–1645) held a diocesan synod.[25] Cardinal Girolamo Boncompagni (1651–1684) presided over a diocesan synod on 15 October 1654.[26] Cardinal Giacomo Boncompagni (1690–1731) presided over a diocesan synod in Bologna on 17–19 June 1698.[27] A diocesan synod was held in Bologna by Cardinal Andrea Giovanetti (1775–1800) on 2–4 September 1788.[28]

Cardinal Giacomo Lercaro held a synod in 1962.[29]

In 1586, Cardinal Paleotti held the first provincial synod of the ecclesiastical province of Bologna.[30]

Patrimony

[edit]

He left his entire estate worth an estimated €1.7 billion euro to the diocese, including 66% of FAAC shares. Eventually the Archdiocese acquired the entire company. Cardinal Caffarra established a three person trust to manage the business with the diocese receiving a share of this. In 2015 in received €5 million, in 2019 it was €10 million. This money was distributed to schools and the poor, the homeless and migrants.[112]

  33. ^ Lanzoni, pp. 784–785. The episcopal list and an inscription refer to Bishop Zama as the first bishop of Bologna. Carlo Sigonio (p. 9) dated him c. 270. Writers of the 17th and 18th centuries postulated nine or ten bishops before Bishop Zama, out of local patriotism and without evidence.
  34. ^ The date of Faustianus, as he is called in the episcopal list, depends on his identification with a Bishop Faustinus of an unnamed diocese who did not attend the Council of Sardica in 342. Lanzoni, p. 785, no. 2.
  35. ^ Eusebius was present at the Synod of Aquileia in 381. He was a friend of Archbishop Ambrose of Milan, and the recipient of several dedications. Lanzoni, p. 785, no. 5.
  36. ^ Felix was a deacon of the Church of Milan, attested in 394 and 397. His episcopacy therefore is later than that date, and before the accession of Petronius in 431. Lanzoni, p. 787, no. 7.
  37. ^ Parthenianus was a bishop of Fano. Lanzoni, p. 788, no. 10.
  38. ^ A letter of Pope Gelasius I is addressed to a bishop Iocundus. Lanzoni, p. 789, no. 16, doubts that the addressee is Iocundus of Bologna, but rather Iocundus of Ravenna.
  39. ^ Bishop Luminosus was present at the Roman synod of Pope Martin I in October 649, and subscribed its decrees. Lanzoni, p. 789, no. 25.
  40. ^ Adelbertus, Albertus: In 955 he participated in a provincial synod. In 967–968 he was present in Ravenna with Pope John XIII and the Emperor Otto I. In 973 he took part in the provincial synod of the ecclesiastical province of Ravenna, which met at Marzalis. On 16 July 983, he participated in an imperial assembly in Ravenna. Schwartz, p. 162.
  41. ^ Bishop Giovanni is first noted in a document of 997: Ludovico-Vittorio Savioli (1784). Annali Bolognesi (in Italian and Latin). Vol. I, Part. II. Bassano. p. 66. On 1 May 998 he attended the provincial synod of Archbishop Gerbert of Ravenna. Guidicini, p. 8, states that his name is found in the archives of the monastery of S. Stefano from 997 to 1012. Schwartz, p. 163.
  42. ^ In the dedication of an altar on 12 May 1045, he is called Hedelfridus. In a document of the same year he signs his name Adalfredus. Cappelletti, pp. 479–480.
  43. ^ Bishop Sigifredus, a German, became bishop of Bologna through the (simoniacal) agency of the Emperor Henry IV, whose party he supported in opposition to Pope Gregory VII. He was excommunicated in the Roman synod of 11 February 1079. He was present at the schismatical council summoned on 25 June 1080 by the Emperor, at which Gregory VII was excommunicated and Archbishop Wibert of Ravenna named pope under the name of Clement III. He died of a plague in 1085. Amorini & Bosi, pp. 215–216. Kehr, p. 248, no. 13.
  44. ^ Gerardus was the Gregorian bishop. A certain Pietro was the schismatic imperial bishop. Schwartz, p. 165.
  45. ^ Writing from Pavia on 19 September 1096, as he was returning from France, Pope Urban II commended to the Catholics of Bologna Bishop Bernardus, whom he had consecrated with his own hands. He died on 15 April 1104, according to his tomb inscription in S. Stefano. Guidicini, p. 16 (with the wrong year). Kehr, p. 248, no. 14. Schwartz, p. 165.
  46. ^ Bishop Victor first appears in a document dated 7 May 1105. He was a supporter of Pope Gelasius II against the Ghibbelines. He died on 27 September 1129. Sigonio, p. 78 (who says that Victor resigned the diocese to Henricus in 1129). Guidicini, pp. 16–17. Schwartz, p. 165 (who states that he died in 1130).
  47. ^ Bishop Henricus was consecrated in mid-April 1130 by Archbishop Gualterius of Ravenna. He is found in a document of 13 January 1144. In May 1144 Bishop Enrico was in Rome and obtained the confirmation of the privileges of the church of Bologna from Pope Lucius II. Kehr, p. 250, no. 20, no. 22. Guidicini, pp. 18–19 (wrongly giving the month of March). According to Sigonio, p. 80, Enrico died in 1145; in July, according to Cappelletti, III, p. 491.
  48. ^ Gerardo was the son of Alberto Grassi, a lawyer. He was a Canon Regular of S. Giovanni in Monte, and a Canon of the Cathedral Chapter. In August 1148, Pope Eugene III wrote to Bishop Gerardo, thanking him for his help in getting the people of Bologna to support the people of Nonantola, who were being attacked by Modena (Kehr, p. 250, no. 24). He was present at the Diet of Roncaglia in 1158. In 1161 at the schismatic council of Lodi, the antipope Victor IV proclaimed his deposition, and appointed one Samuel in his place. The Necrology of S. Giovanni in Monte registered his death on 8 August 1165. Guidicini, pp. 21–23. Cappelletti, pp. 491–493. Gams, p. 676 column 1, places the beginning of his episcopate in 1145. Prodi & Paolini, p. 385, place it in 1148 (or perhaps that is the date of earliest attested reference).
  49. ^ On 7 August 1169, Bishop Ioannes, acting as a delegate of Pope Alexander III, pronounced judgment between the Abbot of Pomposa and the Prior of S. Maria de Portu. In 1169, perhaps in September, Pope Alexander III wrote to Bishop Joannes, confirming the possessions of the Church of Bologna. He died on 15 January 1187, according to the Necrologio Lateranese. Savioli, II.ii, pp. 13–16. Cappelletti, p. 494. Kehr, p. 252, no. 30.
  50. ^ Gerardo had been Canon (not Archdeacon) of the Cathedral Chapter. Bishop Gerardo was granted the territories of the papacy in Bologna on 2 July 1187 (Kehr, p. 253, no. 39). In 1192 he was elected Podestà of Bologna, but was deposed because of maladministration. He died on 26 October or 7 November 1198. Cappelletti, p. 495. Guidicini, pp. 25–30.
  51. ^ Gerardo, a native of Bologna, had previously been a Canon of the Cathedral Chapter, and Archdeacon of Bologna. At the end of 1201, Pope Innocent III suspended his right to confer holy orders. On 10 June 1213, Pope Innocent III ordered Archbishop Hubaldus of Ravenna and Bishop Sicard of Cremona to obtain the resignation of Bishop Gerardo Ariosti, suam insufficientiam recognoscens (J.-P. Migne, ed., Patrologiae Latinae Cursus Completus, Tomus CCXVI (Paris 1891), pp. 966–967). Bishop Gerardo was still functioning as bishop on 23 October 1213, when he granted tax income to the Archpriest. Savioli, II.ii, pp. 232, 342. Cappelletti, pp. 495-496. Guidicini, pp. 30-31. Eubel, I, p. 140, with note 1.
  52. ^ A native of Bologna, Henricus had been a Canon of the Collegiate Church of S. Giovanni in Monte. Bishop Henricus had already been elected by 25 November 1213. He resigned the bishopric in 1240, and retired to the monastery of S. Vittore, where he died on 11 May 1241, according to the Necrology of S. Giovanni in Monte. Guidicini, pp. 32–36. Gams, p. 676. Eubel, I, p. 140,
  53. ^ A native of Florence, Ottaviano had studied law at the University of Bologna, and was a Canon of the Cathedral Chapter (from 1232) and Archdeacon (from 1236). He was appointed Auditor of the Sacred Palace (judge of appeals).
