Thomas II Zaremba, also known as Tomas, was a medieval bishop of Wrocław, Poland from 1270 till 1292.〔( Bishops of Wroclaw ) at the Wrocław Diocese Webpage .〕 Thomas Zaremba was a nephew and confidant of his predecessor, Thomas I. Prior to being Bishop he had been a canon in Wrocław and Archdeacon of Opole. As Bishop, he advocated extensively on behalf of the church in the political sphere.〔Oskar Halecki, W: F. Reddaway, J. H. Penson, The Cambridge History of Poland, Cambridge University Press, ( page 100 ).〕〔Sebastian Piotr Bartos, Negotiations of Power in a Medieval Society: Ecclesiastical Authority and Secular Rulership in Little Poland, 1177-1320,ProQuest, 2008. ( page 165 ).〕 Notably, Thomas was involved for years in a violent dispute with Duke Henry IV as to the prerogatives of the Church in Silesia,〔Anne Duggan, Nobles and Nobility in Medieval Europe: Concepts, Origins, Transformations. Boydell & Brewer Ltd,2000 (page 124 ) & 103.〕 and was forced to leave Wrocław in 1285 and seek refuge with Prince Mieszko in Raciborz.〔Richard W. Unger, Jakub Basista, Britain and Poland-Lithuania: Contact and Comparison from the Middle Ages.BRILL, 2008 ( page 72 ).〕 In 1287 a reconciliation was effected between them at Regensburg, and in 1288 the duke founded the collegiate ''Church of the Holy Cross'' at Wrocław as part of the reconciliation.〔( The Church of the Holy Cross ).〕 Before his death, on the Eve of St. John in 1290, the duke confirmed the rights of the Church to sovereignty over the territories of Neisse and Otmuchów making Thomas the first Prince-Bishop in Wrocław. Other achievements of Thomas II include the consecration of the high altar of the cathedral, attendance at the First Council of Lyon (1274), holding a diocesan synod in 1279 and the establishment of the St. Thomas Collegiate Church in Racibórz.〔( tourist routes in Wroclaw ).〕 == References == 〔 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「Thomas II, bishop of Wrocław」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
