First resident bishop of Avenches

[edit]

The text states, "According to the Synod of Mâcon of 585[1] St. Marius seems to have been the first resident Bishop of Avenches."

(1) The citation is overly broad, extending over 11 pages. (2) The citation does not validate the statement. (3) The citation only demonstrates that Maximus was present at the synod: "Marius episcopus ecclesiae Auentice subscripsi." There is nothing about "resident" or about "first."

The sentence needs to be recast, so that it does not exceed what is stated in the citation.

Prince Bishop of Lausanne ?

[edit]

I wrote the following on the "Bishop of Lausanne" page:

It is claimed that the bishops of Lausanne[1] were granted the title of Prince of the Holy Roman Empire in 1270.[2] The deed of grant is published by Jean Joseph Hisely in his work on the comtes de Genevois, but it bears the date 28 September 1273, not 1270. It states that the grant was requested by Pope Gregory X in person, on the very day on which he presided at the consecration of the cathedral of Lausanne.[3] On 28 September 1273, however, Pope Gregory was in Reggio Emiliana, on his way to France for the Second Council of Lyon.[4] The cathedral of Lausanne was consecrated by Gregory X in 1275, not 1273, and on 20 October, not 28 September.[5] The deed of grant has been labelled a forgery.[6] Vicedomino (talk) 04:30, 28 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
