When Bishop Thomas II was holding the diocese of Wroclaw in 1270, he found a difficult situation after the rules of Prince Bishop Władysław, the interests of church suffered greatly, there was lawlessness and disorder. The first task was the establishment of law and order. During of implementating of order in the diocese, there was a dispute with Prince Henry IV. It was a big dispute concerning the views of law, power, church and state. During the dispute the bishop was using excommunication, interdict, and the Prince was using the policy of fait accompli and the military dominance as much that the bishop had to run to Otmuchów and then to Racibórz, which Prince Henry had invaded by armed troops. The article describes the efforts of Bishop Thomas for announcement of crusade against the prince. The idea emerged during the Synod meeting in 1285 in Krakow, but Pope Honorius IV did not agree. Once again, the bishop strives for an armed expedition against the prince in 1287. He was striving for this in Rome and by the Polish bishops.

In 1201 Cyprian became the bishop of Wrocław. Cyprian was a distinguished clergyman, because of his charismatic nature and organizational skills quickly climbed the ladder of church hierarchy. His church career began as a norbertine monk and ended as a bishop. Place and date of birth of Cyprian are unknown, but because of the name – Cyprian (not known in Poland in those days), it is to think, that he came from Latin or German countries. We know from the records, that Cyprian appeared in Silesia before 1193, where he got the task of reforming the norbertine community in Wroclaw. Organizational sense, efficient diplomacy and patronage of Prince Bolesław the Tall, Archbishop Peter of Gniezno and Bishop Żyrosław were contributing that he became the first abbot of the monastery of St. Vincent in Ołbin. Cyprian undertook also efforts, that premonstratensians communities occurred in other parts of Poland. In 1193 Cyprian became the bishop of the diocese in Lubusz, through the intercession of the Duke Boleslaw the Tall, but we do not have information about the rule on those areas. Cyprian enjoys great affection of Prince Boleslaw the Tall and his son Henry, soon became the bishop of Wrocław. This election, as well as personality of Cyprian in this position didn’t meet with the approval in Rome, but Duke Bolesław enjoying large graces from the Pope, because he favored the reform of the church, pushed through the approval of this choice. In this way Cyprian became the first Polish elective bishop. Cyprian’s tenure in Wrocław did not last too long. But in the annals was this time recording as abounding in good relations with the ducal manor, monasteries, with their own archbishopric and the papacy. During his reign and by his participation came to great foundation of Henry the Bearded, cistercian monastery in Trzebnica. He became a carer of cistercian, johannite and regular canons, he gave them new or approved old privileges. Cyprian as a bishop of Wrocław proved to be also an effective politician and diplomat. Thanks to him and support of archbishop of Gniezno and bishop of Kraków came to a settlement between Henry the Bearded and his uncle Mieszko. Bishop Cyprian died October 25, 1207. He was buried in the cistercian church in Lubiąż, next to his patron the Duke Boleslaw the Tall.

Czy biskup Henryk z Wierzbna wykorzystywał swoje pieczęcie tylko dla celów prawnych, ustrojowych? Ustalenie tego to cel artykułu. Aby go zrealizować, zachowane pieczęcie zostały przeanalizowane pod kątem użycia wizerunku napieczętnego i legendy. Dokonując analizy pieczęci Biskupa Henryka, zauważamy, że mają one cechy pieczęci książęcej; okrągły kształt charakterystyczny był dla władzy świeckiej. Duży wpływ na pieczęcie biskupa miał Arnold ze Zwróconej. Biskup używał pieczęci do trzech celów: potwierdzenia prawdziwości wystawianych dokumentów (cel prawno-ustrojowy), podkreślania boskiego pochodzenia otrzymanej władzy i wiekowości władzy biskupów wrocławskich.

In January 24, 1207 through archbishop Henry Kietlicz, Pope Innocent III issued a bull, which main content was to remind the polish princes of the right of free election, under penalty of excommunication for the opposition. Prince Henry the Bearded in order to avoid the conflict with the church, supported the candidacy of Wroclaw’s canon Wawrzyniec. The new bishop of Wrocław came probably from the lineage of knights – the lords of Pogorzela near Brzeg nad Odrą and walked out of the chapter. A very important moment in the life and pastoral activity of Bishop Wawrzyniec was to participate in the fourth Lateran council in 1215, convened by Pope Innocent III. The Council fathers occupied i.a. with an important problem, which is going to be occupied by the bishop Wawrzyniec, ie. the matter of ecclesiastical tithes, when the bishop Wawrzyniec come out strongly against the policy of Henry the Bearded, which release German’s settlers from payment of this dues. In the last years of his life, prominent archbishop Henry Kietlicz, with whom bishop Wawrzyniec was generally in good relations, was losing slowly the gained influence and was leaving by most faithful collaborators of the episcopate. Many historians believed that this group joined also the bishop Wawrzyniec, because in last years of live of archbishop, he stood firmly at the side of Henry the Bearded. Bishop Wawrzyniec has contributed to the development of the organization of the diocese of Wrocław. He, who had good relationship with the cathedral chapter held a minor reforms aimed at strengthening its organizational structures. During the reign of bishop Wawrzyniec there was extended an episcopal office, which served primarily the private needs of the bishop and later ecclesiastical issues of his diocese. It wasn’t given to bishop Wawrzyniec to play a significant political role comparing to so prominent and powerful prince, as Henry the Bearded.

The Middle Ages in Silesia is a time of great dispute between the bishop and the prince, church – political and legal disputes, which liberated the church from the power of the prince. One of these disputes was between Bishop Thomas II (the second) and the Duke Henry IV (the fourth) Probus. In these big disputes were involved not only the main representatives of power, but also a lot of people from modern elites, as ecclesiastical and secular as well. This article aims to present one of the person, who influenced the course of the dispute – canon and later bishop of Cracow John Muskata. This study is the discovery of an important thread in the history of the medieval church in Silesia. For many years the historians were interested in the person of John Muskata and his ability to be a good negotiator and objective peacemaker. Was he like that in a dispute between Bishop Thomas and Prince Henry of Wroclaw? I think so. He showed in practice his art of mediation, as he repeatedly changed the front and by each of the quarrelled parties he was received with open arms, especially when it appeared a hope for a peaceful compromise. His diplomatic skills appreciated already during his studies in Bologna Bishop Thomas, who admired his ability to win big curial figures for his personal gain. For the Muskata himself the controversy and his presence in it, was the cognitive field of contemporary polish reality on the peak of power. These silesian experiences gained at the beginning of his career, the papal service, as collector of Peter’s pence, had a significant impact on his further course of life. This was reflected in his work as Ordinary of Cracow and in conflict with Władysław Łokietek.

By the end of the twelfth century the bishopric of Wrocław owned a lot of goods and become a major economic power, although it was not sovereign against princely power. On the lands, which were granted to the Bishop, were goods belonging to the prince or knights and it was the separation of power. This situation has helped the prince to keep the right to use the benefice of ecclesiastical property. The Church had to apply for the immunity privileges, defining the power of the Church to his estate (the statute of Łęczyca from 1180), the acquisition of the economic and judicial immunity and the right to the free judiciary with the state as a judgment executor. In the bishopric of Wrocław the process to obtain the immunity was slower, as a result of disputes between bishops and silesian princes. Most of these disputes ended in a settlement, more or less favorable to the Church. The dispute between Prince Henry the Bearded and Bishop Thomas I was more hardened. The Bishop accused the prince in a letter to Rome of violating the immunity of Churches goods and forcing the population of the episcopal estates to work for the prince. Prince Henry doesn’t appear to call of the papal legate to resolve controversial issues, he was covered by excommunication, forcing the prince to intervene in Rome. The dispute lasted until March 18, 1238, to the death of Prince Henry the Bearded. After his death, his son Henry the Pious took the power, who was implacable in fundamental issues. In 1239, after the intervention of Pope Gregory IX, there is a trade-off between Prince Henry II and the Bishop of Wrocław. The first half of the thirteenth century, despite the political turmoil in Silesia, inefficient power of the son of Henry – Boleslaw Rogatka and the division of Silesia, has brought many law benefits to Church of Wrocław, which were written in the contract from June 26, 1249 in St. Giles Church in Wrocław. This contract has been written in form of rights articles of the Church and theprince in the castellany Milicz and regulates the legal relations between the two authorities. It is lack of informations about class of population and the existing german colonization in the county of Milicz. Issues raised in the agreement can be divided according to the general system of the Middle Ages into two categories: causae maiores, belonging generally to the prince and causae minores, belonging to the patrimonial judiciary (thefts, beatings, disputes and others). The range of ducal and ecclesiastical rights in Milicz contained in the contract was based on two elements of administrative system: burgum – urban settlement, including the castle, the other prison management indicating the administrative and judicial nature. Location of this burgum by the Church took place before the signing of the contract (1241–1249) and there judicial matters of maleficium controveria vel iniuria and futurum belonged to the Church castellan. The exception was the trial of the people caught in the crime in burgum or on his salary. Depending on the location, time and the causer of the crime, the penalty and the income from court fines were differentiated. The same principle was binding for the murder, so-called head. Another discussed issue was the prison of Milicz (carcer). This prison was located in the interior of the castle or in the dark of the castle or in a tower. In § 10 of the contract was stated that „the prison has always belonged and still belongs to the Church” (however it really happend to the end of the eleventh century). In the Church prison there were not only doing their time the people because of the Church judgment but also prisoners of the prince, the prince probably hadn’t have his own prison. In the contract was raised the issue about security against escapes of prisoners. It was determined, that the amount of the fine and the guilt will depend on the number of fugitives and on whose judgment they have been convicted. The contract of 1249 refers in general terms about social composition of prisoners. From this documents can only be deduced, that the penalty for the same crime were different depending on social and financial status. Based on this contract, it can be analyzed the process of taking over the secular reins of the Church in castellany Milicz, which will be completed in 1290. In the agreement was settled the case of the judiciary power of the Church castellan, who had the right to sue, prosecute, punish and dismiss the subjects of the Church on the territory of castellan and the whole income from this activity belonged to him. Over time developed the range of his power. Similar agreements the Church signed in 1241 in the duchy of Opole, in 1253 in Głogow, in 1260 in Legnica. After analyzing these agreements, it should be noted, that the authority of the Church in the castellany Milicz was much bigger than in other areas of Silesia and in the middle of the thirteenth century the authority of the Church exceeded the power range of princely castellan. In 1290 follows the taking over reins by the Church on the territory of the castellan, but it was not a full judicial and economic immunity.

In the thirteenth century hierarchs of the church of the diocese of Silesia strove for church liberation from the sovereign power of the state, to obtain complete autonomous individuality, to subject the state and society to canonical rules and obligations arising from them, eg.: tithing. Gregorian reforms were implemented. In Silesia, the first church claim for tithe took place in the time of administration of Bishop Cyprian, but there were many concessions and exemptions in paying. The successor to the bishop Cyprian, Bishop Lawrence came stricter to the issue of tithing - no concessions and no exemptions. This attitude of bishop to the tithes contributed to dissatisfaction by the Prince Henry the Bearded. The conflict between two mens increased. Prince Henry the Bearded didin’t fulfil the terms of the Lateran Council concerning the tithe, which brought, that Bishop Lawrence complained to Pope Innocent III. Pope supported the claims of Bishop Lawrence. After death of Innocent III, the new Pope Honorius III supports the complaint of Prince Henry and to resolve the dispute, deputed the throughout Europe respected monk diplomat Konrad Krossigk, who tried to mitigate the conflict. It was only in 1227 a settlement agrement were signed, which was a compromise on both sides. The settlement allowed the development to colonize the areas of Silesia.

That same year he came to Wrocław, where on 11 October he became canon of the Wrocław chapter and cathedral priest in Wrocław. Förster emphasised the fundamental importance of the principles of faith in the preaching of the Word of God. His preaching ministry coincides with the dispute over mixed marriages, in which he took an upright position. From 1845 to 1853, i.e. during the reign of Cardinal Melchior von Diepenbrock, Rev. Canon Förster was his closest and trusted collaborator. On 20 September 1845, he received an honorary doctorate from the Wrocław Theological Faculty. After the death of Cardinal Melchior von Diepenbrock, the cathedral chapter elected Förster as chapter vicar on 20 January 1853, and as Ordinary of the Diocese of Wrocław on 19 April.
