Cyril II patriarch of Jerusalem (1845-1872)
Summary:
Cyril II (1845-1872) was one of eminent patriarchs of the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate of Jerusalem and the most important of the 19th century. During his patriarchate Cyril had to resolve important issues that troubled the patriarchate. This research for Cyril’s patriarchate examines his efforts to resolve the majority of them. During the Great and Holy Synod of Constantinople (1872) where Bulgaria’s anticanonical establishment of the Bulgarian Exarchate was condemned Cyril opposed the declaration of schism and declined to sign the decision of the Synod. Consequently, the Brotherhood of the Holy Sepulcher dethroned him and with decree of the Ottoman government he was exiled from Jerusalem and was sent to Constantinople, where he died on the 18th of August, 1877. The research on Cyril the II is based mainly on archives (the majority were manuscripts) and the press. The use of bibliography is sufficient but not too extended because of is a dearth of books and articles referring exclusively to patriarch Cyril; rather, most of the pertinent literature comprises references in books and articles referring to the history of the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate of Jerusalem and the Middle East in the 19th century.
