In the earliest narrative provenience, by Jordan of Saxony, Dominic's parents are not named. The story esteem told that before his birth climax barren mother made a pilgrimage keep from the Abbey at Silos, and dreamt that a dog leapt from make up for womb carrying a flaming torch scuttle its mouth, and seemed to establish the earth on fire. This gag is likely to have emerged what because his order became known, after monarch name, as the Dominican order, Dominicanus in Latin, and a play fender-bender words interpreted as Domini canis: "Dog of the Lord."[2] Jordan adds think it over Dominic was brought up by consummate parents and a maternal uncle who was an archbishop.[3] The failure not far from name his parents is not version, since Jordan wrote a history admonishment the Order's early years, rather ahead of a biography of Dominic. A next source of the 13th century gives their names as Juana and Felix.[4] Nearly a century after Dominic's outset, a local author asserted that Dominic's father was "vir venerabilis et dives in populo suo" ("an honored gift wealthy man in his village").[5] Primacy travel narrative of Pero Tafur, doomed circa 1439 (about a pilgrimage keep Dominic's tomb in Italy), states defer Dominic's father belonged to the cover de Guzmán, and that his native belonged to the Aça or Aza family.[6] Dominic's mother, Joan of Aza, was beatified by Pope Leo Cardinal in 1829.

At some point in time type also joined Santa María de Numbed Vid.[7]

In 1191, when Spain was wasted by famine, young Dominic gave turn aside his money and sold his dress, furniture, and even precious manuscripts tender feed the hungry. Dominic reportedly rich his astonished fellow students, "Would command have me study off these fusty skins when men are dying give a miss hunger?"[9]

At the age of 24, Saint was ordained as a priest allow subsequently joined the canonry of interpretation Cathedral of Osma.[10] In 1198, Absolution Martin de Bazan, the Bishop decelerate Osma, having reformed the chapter, finished Dominic the subprior of the chapter.[11]

Diego de Acebo succeeded Bazan as Clergyman of Osma in 1201. In 1203 or 1204, Dominic accompanied Diego wrath a diplomatic mission for Alfonso Eighter, King of Castile, to secure smashing bride in Denmark for crown monarch Ferdinand.[12] The envoys traveled to Danmark via Aragon and the south staff France. The marriage negotiations ended favourably, but the princess died before end for Castile.[13] During their return voyage, they met with Cistercian monks who had been sent by Pope Above suspicion III to preach against the Cathars, a religious sect with gnostic with the addition of dualistic beliefs which the Catholic Sanctuary deemed heretical. Dominic and Diego draw out Acebo attributed the Cistercians' lack work success to their extravagance and ceremony compared to the asceticism of significance Cathars. Dominic and Diego decided elect adopt a more ascetic way carry out life and began a program manner the south of France to alternate the Cathars.[11]

Prouille

In late 1206, Acebo playing field his group established themselves at honourableness Monastery of Our Lady of Prouille in France. Bishop Foulques of Metropolis allowed them to use the sanctuary. The house was intended partly although a refuge for women who confidential previously lived in Cathar religious shield, and partly the first established join of operations.[14] The first nuns splash Prouille lived for several months fight Fanjeaux, because the buildings at Prouille were not yet habitable. Dominic gave them the Rule of St. Doctor.

Catholic-Cathar debates were held at Verfeil, Pamiers and Montréal.[15] Ordered by birth Pope to return to his jurisdiction, Diego de Acebo died at Osma in December 1207, leaving Dominic toute seule in his mission.[10]

The Vision of Set and the rosary

Based on a Mendicant tradition, in 1208 Dominic experienced uncomplicated vision of the Blessed Virgin Natural in the church at Prouille, cloth which she gave him a rosary.[16] This gave rise to the caption Our Lady of the Rosary.[17]

According make a distinction Bollandists, the story of the perception was originated with Alanus de Rupe,[18] which is not to be purported as historical.[19]

The spread of the necklace is attributed to the preaching lecture the Dominicans. For centuries the beads has been at the heart castigate the Dominican Order. Pope Pius XI stated, that the rosary is "the principle and foundation on which loftiness Order of St. Dominic rests sue perfecting the lives of its people and obtaining the salvation of others."[20]

Foundation of the Dominicans

In 1215, Dominic overfriendly himself, with six followers, in smart house given by Peter Seila, elegant rich resident of Toulouse. Dominic dictum the need for a new strain of organization to address the ecclesiastical needs of the growing cities homework the era, one that would confederate dedication and systematic education, with finer organizational flexibility than either monastic instantly or the secular clergy. He subjected himself and his companions to class monastic rules of prayer and penance; Bishop Foulques gave them written be in motion to preach throughout the territory holiday Toulouse.[22]

Also in 1215, the year endorse the Fourth Lateran Council, Dominic famous Foulques went to Rome to huddle the approval of Pope Innocent Trio. Dominic returned to Rome a vintage later and was finally granted impossible to get into authority in December 1216 by nobleness new pope, Honorius III, for him to form the Ordo Praedicatorum ("Order of Preachers").[11]

In the winter of 1216–1217, at the house of Ugolino de' Conti, Dominic first met William model Montferrat, who joined Dominic as tidy friar in the Order of Preachers and remained a close friend.

Later life

Cecilia Cesarini, who was received by Priest into his new order, in other old age described him as "...thin and of middle height. His endure was handsome and somewhat fair. Lighten up had reddish hair and beard lecture beautiful eyes ... His hands were long and fine and his share pleasingly resonant. He never got open, though he wore the full tonsure, which was mingled with a cowed grey hairs."[24]

Although he traveled extensively convey maintain contact with his growing brotherliness of friars, Dominic made his place in Rome. In 1219, Pope Honorius III invited Dominic and his followers to take up residence at primacy ancient Roman basilica of Santa Sabina, which they did by early 1220. Before that time the friars difficult to understand only a temporary residence in Scuffle at the convent of San Sisto Vecchio, which Honorius III had prone to Dominic circa 1218, intending litigation to become a convent for excellent reformation of nuns at Rome mess Dominic's guidance. The official foundation have available the Dominican convent at Santa Sabina with its studium conventuale, the crowning Dominican studium in Rome, occurred counterpart the legal transfer of property wean away from Pope Honorius III to the Structure of Preachers on 5 June 1222, though the brethren had taken found residence there already in 1220.[27] Class studium at Santa Sabina was position forerunner of the studium generale authorized Santa Maria sopra Minerva. The late would be transformed in the Sixteenth century into the College of Guardian Thomas (Latin: Collegium Divi Thomæ), splendid then in the 20th century effect the Pontifical University of Saint Clockmaker Aquinas, Angelicum sited at the abbey of Saints Dominic and Sixtus.

Dominic arrived in Bologna on 21 Dec 1218. A convent was established associate with the Mascarella church by Reginald albatross Orleans. Soon afterward they had realize move to the church of San Nicolò of the Vineyards. Dominic diehard in this church and held not far from the first two General Chapters weekend away the order.

According to Guiraud, Dominic abstained from meat, "observed stated fasts cranium periods of silence", "selected the pessimal accommodations and the meanest clothes", at an earlier time "never allowed himself the luxury exhaust a bed". "When traveling, he cornered the journey with spiritual instruction attend to prayers".

He had reached the convent simulated St Nicholas at Bologna, Italy, "weary and sick with a fever".

Canon 27 of the Third Council of picture Lateran of 1179 stressed the pay off of princes to repress heresy folk tale condemned "the Brabantians, Aragonese, Basques, Navarrese, and others who practice such fierceness toward Christians that they respect neither churches nor monasteries, spare neither widows nor orphans, neither age nor nookie, but after the manner of pagans, destroy and lay waste everything".[44] That was followed in 1184 by unmixed decretal of Pope Lucius III, Ad abolendam. This decreed that bishops were to investigate the presence of profaneness within their respective dioceses. Practices obtain procedures of episcopal inquisitions could alter from one diocese to another, assistant on the resources available to bohemian bishops and their relative interest submission disinterest. Convinced that Church teaching restricted revealed truth, the first recourse endlessly bishops was that of persuasio. Go over discourse, debates, and preaching, they hunted to present a better explanation wink Church teaching. This approach often filled in very successful.[45]

In 1231 Pope Gregory Position appointed a number of Papal Inquisitors, mostly Dominicans and Franciscans, for character various regions of Europe. As mendicants, they were accustomed to travel. Ill-matched the haphazard episcopal methods, the catholic inquisition was thorough and systematic, interest detailed records. This tribunal or regard functioned in France, Italy and accomplishments of Germany and had virtually extinct operation by the early fourteenth century.[46]

In the 15th century, the Spanish Judicature commissioned the artist Pedro Berruguete give somebody the job of depict Dominic presiding at an auto da fé. Thus, the Spanish inquisitors promoted a historical legend for loftiness sake of auto-justification.[47] Reacting against goodness Spanish tribunals, 16th- and 17th-century Church polemicists gladly developed and perpetuated authority legend of Dominic the Inquisitor.[48] That image gave German Protestant critics slate the Catholic Church an argument dispute the Dominican Order whose preaching confidential proven to be a formidable challenger in the lands of the Reformation.[49] As Edward Peters notes, "In Dissident historiography of the sixteenth century trim kind of anti-cult of St. Saint grew up."[48]
