Honorius Ier
Honorius Ier , born in Campania with an unknown date, died with Rome the October 12th 638, pope of 625 with 638.
Wire of a honorary Consul, he is elected in succession of Boniface V and is devoted the October 27th 625. The emperor Héraclius being in shift, it cannot confirm the election. To avoid any time, it is thus the exarque one of Ravenne which proceeds to this formality.
Honorius continues work of urbanization of Rome carried out by papacy. For this purpose, it makes remove the tiles of the temple of Rome to repair the roof of the Basilique Saint-Pierre. It also makes build many churches.
It intervenes only seldom in Occident, except in England: it sends a bishop to Dorchester, in the kingdom of Wessex, and sanctions the foundation of évêché of York after the conversion of the king Edwin I {{er}} of Northumbrie. In the East, it follows a political policy of compromise between “orthodoxe” and monophysites. This pushes it to approve, in 634, an intermediate solution suggested by Serge I {{er}}, patriarch of Constantinople: Jesus-Christ would have two natures ( hypostaseis ) but only one will, qualified “theandric”, the i.e. divino-human one. It is these doctrines which fought the saints Maxime the Confessor, Sophrone of Jerusalem and Martin Ier because it deprived Christ of part of her human nature, the human will.
Under the pontificate of the one of its successors, Leon II, and the reign of the emperor Constantin IV, Honorius is condemned as monothelist to the III {{E}} council of Constantinople and undergoes the Anathème.
Its body rests with the Saint-Pierre basilica.
