The Diocese of Arezzo-Cortona-Sansepolcro (Latin: Dioecesis Arretina-Cortonensis-Biturgensis seu Burgi Sancti Sepulchri) is a Latin diocese of the Catholic Church. It has existed since 1986. In that year the historic diocese of Arezzo was combined with the diocese of Cortona and the diocese of Sansepolcro, the enlarged diocese being suffragan of the archdiocese of Florence.[1][2]

History

[edit]

Arezzo was the see of a diocese in Tuscany, directly dependent on the Holy See. Tradition says it was converted in the 1st century by Romulus of Fiesole, afterwards Bishop of Fiesole, a disciple of St. Paul. Another foundation tale has it that Christianity was brought to Arezzo by S. Barnabas, and by S. Timothy, the disciple of S. Paul.[3] An equally implausible claim is that all of Arezzo was baptized during the episcopacy of Bishop Dicentius in the 5th century.[4]

The city's clerks often helped build the church in their own free time. The church helped reward these people with seats of Cardinals. Many of the seats are still there with the names of people who had helped build and donated to the church.

It became a bishopric about 304, under Saint Satyrus. Saint Donatus, his successor, is patron of Arezzo Cathedral, also dedicated to Saint Peter the Apostle. The diocese was originally very large, embracing most of southeastern Tuscany. In 1325, however, Pope John XXII created the diocese of Cortona out of the territory of Arezzo. In 1462, Pius II created the dioceses of Pienza and Montalcino. In 1561, Pius IV created the diocese of Montepulciano. In 1515 (1520), Leo X created the diocese of Borgo San Sepolcro.[5]

The Canons were gathered together as a corporation by Bishop Petrus, c. 840, on instructions from the Emperor Lothair.[6] Bishop Helmpertus built new quarters for them in 1009.[7] In 1677, the cathedral Chapter was composed of four dignities (the Provost, the Archdeacon, the Dean, and the Primicerius) and fourteen Canons.[8]

Bishop Theodaldus (1023–1036?) invited Guido of Arezzo to train the cathedral singers in the plainchant. He dedicated his book Micrologus to Bishop Thedaldus c. 1025.[9] A letter of Guido to Bishop Theodaldus survives, in which he explains his methodology.[10]

Between 1480 and 1485, Luca Pacioli, O.Min., a native of Borgo San Sepolcro, which is a distance of 16 miles (25 km) from Arezzo, visited the site, and described it as "utterly stunning."

While Cardinal Guadagni was Bishop of Arezzo, he was able to obtain from his uncle, Pope Clement XII, a number of privileges for himself and Arezzo. In the bull "Insignes Ecclesias" of 1 November 1737, Pope Clement lauded the antiquity, faithfulness, and prestige of the diocese as a direct subject of the Roman Church, and conceded to its bishop in perpetuo archiepiscopal insignia, the pallium (which could only be worn inside the diocese, and on certain specified feasts and holy days) and the patriarchal cross.[11]

Reorganization of the diocese

[edit]

On 18 February 1984, the Vatican and the Italian State signed a new and revised concordat. Based on the revisions, a set of Normae was issued by the Vatican on 15 November 1984, which was accompanied in the next year, on 3 June 1985, by enabling legislation. According to the agreement, the practice of having one bishop govern two separate dioceses at the same time, aeque personaliter, was abolished. Instead, the Vatican continued consultations which had begun under Pope John XXIII for the merging of small dioceses, especially those with personnel and financial problems, into one combined diocese. In Tuscany, this particularly affected three dioceses: Arezzo, Cortona, and Borgo San Sepolcro (Biturgensis).

On 30 September 1986, Pope John Paul II ordered that the dioceses of Arezzo, Cortona, and San Sepolcro be merged into one diocese with one bishop, with the Latin title Dioecesis Arretina-Cortonensis-Biturgensis. The seat of the diocese was to be in Arezzo, and the cathedral of Arezzo was to serve as the cathedral of the merged diocese. The cathedrals in Cortona and San Sepolcro were to become co-cathedrals, and their cathedral Chapters were to be a Capitulum Concathedralis. There was to be only one diocesan Tribunal, in Arezzo, and likewise one seminary, one College of Consultors, and one Priests' Council. The territory of the new diocese was to include the territory of the former dioceses of Cortona and Borgo San Sepolcro.[12]

  47. ^ Hieronymus had been Prior of the church of S. Fridiano in Lucca. He was notified by Pope Innocent II in a letter of 22 November 1142 that he had been selected as Bishop of Arezzo.

  55. ^ Tarlati was appointed Bishop of Arezzo by Pope Clement V on 26 September 1312, but was deposed by Pope John XXII for his support of the Emperor Louis IV. He nonetheless continued to usurp the seat of Arezzo until his death in 1328. He was officially replaced by an Apostolic Administrator, Boso Ubertini, though Guido hindered him from carrying out his mandate. He also presumed to crown Louis IV as King of Italy. Ughelli I, pp. 424-426. Cappelletti XVIII, pp. 141-145. Eubel I, p. 104 with note 4.
  56. ^ Boso Ubertini was the Provost of the cathedral of Arezzo, and an enemy of the Tarlati of Petramala. Boso was initially named Apostolic Administrator by Pope John XXII, but was promoted Bishop of Arezzo on 5 December 1326. He was still not consecrated a bishop, however, on 12 April 1333, and his spiritual functions were carried out by Bishop Matteo, titular bishop of Caffa. Eubel I, pp. 104, with note 5; 154, with note 3.
  57. ^ Jacobus, who held the degree of Doctor in utroque iure, had previously been a Canon of Ostia, and an Auditor causarum Sacri Palatii (judge) in Avignon.

  58. ^ Albergotti was a native of Arezzo, and a Benedictine abbot of the monastery of S. Maria in Florence. He was appointed bishop of Arezzo by Pope Gregory XI on 18 July 1371, and was made papal legate in Tuscany. He instigated a rebellion on the part of the Aretines against Florence, and, when the effort failed, he and many of his fellow citizens were exiled or put to hard labor. Ughelli, pp. 427-428 (who confuses him with his nephew and successor). Cappelletti, p. 146. Eubel I, p. 104.
  59. ^ Joannes was the nephew of his predecessor of the same name, and held the licensiate in Canon Law. He was Prior of Santa Croce in the diocese of Arezzo. He was appointed bishop on 15 October 1375 by Pope Gregory XI. He died in 1390. Ughelli p. 428. Eubel I, p. 104.
  60. ^ A Roman, Arcioni had previously been Bishop of Ascoli Piceno (1387–1390). He was appointed Bishop of Arezzo on 10 October 1390, but was unable to obtain possession of his diocese, and therefore he returned to Ascoli. Ughelli, p. 428. Cappelletti XVIII, p. 146. Eubel I, pp. 104, 111.
  61. ^ Angelo de' Fibinacci de' Ricasoli had previously been Bishop of Sora, then of Aversa (1357–1370), then of Florence (1370–1383?), and then of Faenza (1387–1391).

  62. ^ Ricci had been a Canon of Florence and the priest of S. Andrea of Empoli. He was appointed bishop of Arezzo on 29 November 1403 by Pope Boniface IX. He was transferred to the diocese of Pisa by John XXIII on 9 October 1411 (accepting apparently the deposition of Gregory XII by the Council of Pisa on 5 June 1409). He died on 30 November 1417. Ughelli, p. 428. Cappelletti XVIII, p. 147. Eubel I, pp. 104, 400.
  63. ^ Capponi had been Provost of the cathedral of Florence. He was appointed by John XXIII on 9 October 1411. Evidently, Arezzo had broken with Gregory XII, who had been deposed from the papacy in June 1409 by the Council of Pisa. Eubel I, p. 104.
  64. ^ Francesco Jacobi Bellarmino was the Archpriest of Montepulciano. He was appointed to the diocese of Arezzo by Pope John XXIII on 22 December 1413.
