EUGENIUS II

This article appears in Volume V09, Page 885 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: EUD-FAT
EUGENIUS II .,
pope
 , was a native of Rome, and was chosen to succeed Pascal I. in 824. His election did not take place without difficulty. Eugenius was the candidate of the nobles, and the clerical
faction
  brought forward a competitor. But the
monk
  Wala, the representative of the emperor Lothair, succeeded in arranging matters, and Eugenius was elected. Lothair, however, came to Rome in person, and took advantage of this opportunity to redress many abuses in the papal administration, to vest the election of the
pope
  in the nobles, and to confirm the
statute
  that no pope should be consecrated until his election had the approval of the emperor. A
council
  which assembled at Rome during the reign of Eugenius passed several enactments for the restoration of
church
  discipline, took
measures
  for the
foundation
  of schools and chapters, and decided against priests wearing a secular dress or engaging in secular occupations. Eugenius also adopted various provisions for the care of the poor and of widow s and orphans. He died in 8'27. (L. D.*)
