Produktbeschreibung

The Emperor Henry II also known as Saint Henry the Exuberant, was Holy Roman Emperor during the first years of the 11th century. He was also a third order oblate of the Order of St. Benedict. During his lifetime he was regarded as a pious and righteous Christian monarch, and sought to establish policies to act as custodian over the church and its social mission. Following his death, Henry II was canonized in July of 1147 by Pope Eugenius III in Rome. The saintly cult around his person had grown in the century subsequent to his death, so much so that his spouse, Cunigunde was also canonized in March of 1200 by Pope Innocent III. Here, a partial contemporary of Henry, the bishop of Utrecht, gives an abridged account of his deeds as emperor.
