Guido of Valence

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Guido von Valence (lat. Guido de Valentia ) was the Bishop of Tripoli , to whom Philip Tripolitanus dedicated his translation of the Secretum secretorum in the first half of the 13th century .

As Valencia was under Muslim rule in Guido's youth, the most likely place of origin is Valence . It is unknown what functions Guido performed before his episcopate. Steven J. Williams names two different people with whom he could be identified, based on the career paths customary at the time: an archdeacon of Caesarea Magister Guido, mentioned in 1207 , or Magister Guido, who was papal chaplain and notary from 1222 to 1226. According to Wolfgang Antweiler, Guido may have come to the Holy Land in the wake of Patriarch Gerold , previously Bishop of Valence. Pierre-Vincent Claverie claims that Guy came to the Orient with his brother Brelon during the Fifth Crusade from what is now the Drôme department . In the 1237 in a document by Pope Gregory IX. Wolfgang Antweiler assumed that Guido von Valence was named Bishop G. of Tripoli, and in older research the name was added to Gaufrid, one of his predecessors in office. A Johannes de Valentia named in 1244 , who had difficulties taking up his office as prior of the monastery of St. Michael in Tripoli, could have been a relative of Guido of Valence.
