Locum Beati Petri

Last updated

Locum Beati Petri was a papal bull issued by Pope Leo XII on 30 June 1828, reorganizing the ecclesiastical jurisdiction in Dalmatia. [1]

The bull degraded the Archdiocese of Split to the level of a diocese. The Diocese of Makarska was merged with the Diocese of Split creating the Diocese of Split-Makarska. The diocese became subject of the Archdiocese of Zadar which was proclaimed seat of the Dalmatian ecclesiastical province. [2] [3]

The Archdiocese of Dubrovnik was also degraded to the level of a diocese. The Diocese of Poreč was merged with the Diocese of Pula creating Diocese of Poreč-Pula. Eight dioceses were abolished: Diocese of Korčula, Diocese of Ston, Diocese of Novigrad, Diocese of Osor, Diocese of Rab, Diocese of Skradin, Diocese of Nin and Diocese of Trogir. [1]

Madius was a prelate of the Catholic Church who served as the bishop of Duvno from between 1298 and 1311 to his resignation in 1344. Konrad Eubel considers him a second bishop of Duvno, while Dominik Mandić left the question open whether Madius was indeed the second or the first bishop of Duvno, as he couldn't find any document confirming his alleged predecessor John of Hoio as the bishop of Duvno. During his episcopate, he was involved in long-lasting litigations against the archbishops of Split as a representative of Bishop Valentin of Makarska over the control of Omiš and other church objects. Madius resigned due to, what he calls "maliciousness of the people", which might refer to the opposition of his faithful to pay taxes and the political plight which befell him after his patrons from the Šubić family lost the political influence after the conquest of their domains by Stephen II, Ban of Bosnia. He nevertheless retained the title of a bishop, and according to Ante Škegro lived on the territory of the Archdiocese of Split.
