Abstract
Hay obispos cuya vida está vinculada
con los orígenes de una determinada diócesis.
Estos obispos suelen adquirir un valor
muy simbólico para la historia de ésta.
Durante los siglos XII y XIII se produce
un importante avance en el proceso de fundación
de nuevas diócesis en Castilla. La
mayoría de los datos biográficos sobre los
primeros obispos de estas nuevas diócesis
están referidos a los principales hechos del
proceso de institucionalización diocesana.
En este contexto, este artículo estudia el
caso de los dos primeros obispos de Cuenca
y de sus paralelismos biográficos, destacándose
la relación entre biografía, poder
y memoria y la importancia histórica del
proceso de santificación del segundo de estos
prelados.
There are bishops whose life is closely linked to the origins of a particular diocese. These bishops tend to be a very simbolic value for the history of their dioceses. During the 12th and 13th centuries a breakthrough occurs in the process of foundation of new dioceses in Castile. Most of the biographical data about the first bishops of these new dioceses are referred to the main acts of the Diocesan institutionalization process. In this context, this article explores the case of the first two bishops of Cuenca and their biographical parallels, emphasizing the relationship between biography, power, and memory and the historical importance of the process of sanctification of the second of these prelates.
