Book excerpt: Preface 4Chapter I 5Chapter II 14Chapter III 31Chapter IV 40Chapter V 51Chapter VI 60Chapter VII 73Chapter VIII 81Chapter IX 92The following sketch was written to supply what its author felt persuaded could not fail to interest his fellow Catholics in England; namely, some account of the only English Pope who ever reigned.In it he does not pretend to any novelty of research; but simply to present a connected narrative of such events in the history of Pope Adrian IV as have hitherto lain broken and concealed in old chronicles, or been slightly touched for the most part in an incidental way by modern writers.In the course of his sketch, the author has ventured to take part with Pope Adrian in some acts of his, which it is commonly the mode to condemn. Should his opinions in so doing not be deemed sound, he yet hopes that at least the spirit which inspired them - in other words, the spirit to promote the cause of practical rather than theoretical policy, as also of public order and legitimate authority, will deserve commendation.For the rest, the striking similarity between the difficulties which Pius IX in our day has to contend with, and those which Pope Adrian had to encounter in the twelfth century, should only lend the more interest to his story.- Richard Raby, Munich, May, 1849

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a biographical sketch by author Richard Raby on the 12th century pope Adrian IV. Pope Adrian IV (born Nicholas Breakspear) was head of the Catholic Church and ruler of the Papal States from 4 December 1154 to his death in 1159. He is the only Englishman to have been pope. One of the famous acts of Pope Adrian was the definitive statement of marriage as a sacrament, when he allowed serfs to marry without having to obtain their lord's permission as had traditionally been the case. Adrian's reasoning was that a sacrament outweighed a feudal due and that no Christian had the right to stand in the way of another's receiving of a sacrament.

Book excerpt: In over 2,000 years of Christianity, there has been only one pope from England: Nicholas Breakspear. Breakspear was elected pope in 1154, but his story started long before that. The son of a local churchman near St Albans, he would battle his way across Europe to defend and develop Christianity, facing war in Scandinavia and the Moors in the Iberian Peninsula. But it was after he took the throne of St Peter as Adrian IV that he would face his greatest threat: Frederick Barbarossa, who was determined to restore the Holy Roman Empire to its former greatness. In Breakspear: The English Pope, R.A.J. Waddingham opens the archives to tell the story of a man who rose from humble beginnings to glorious power – and yet has been all but forgotten ever since.
