Ramiro II de Aragón
De Wikipedia, la enciclopedia libre
Saltar a: navegación, búsqueda
La Campana de Huesca de José Casado del Alisal, que ilustra la Campana de Huesca. Ramiro II (c. 1075–16 de agosto de 1157, Huesca), llamado Monje, fue Rey de Aragón desde 1134 hasta 1137. Era el hijo menor de Sancho Ramírez, rey de Aragón y Navarra, y Felicia de Roucy.
Pasó la mayor parte de su vida temprana como monje en un monasterio francés y más tarde como abad de San Pedro en Huesca. En 1134, cuando su hermano Alfonso el luchador murió sin heredero, Ramiro era obispo de Barbastro-Roda. Renunció temporalmente a sus votos monásticos para asegurar la sucesión a la corona de Aragón, mientras perdía a Navarra, que había formado parte de los dominios de su difunto hermano, pero en 1134 se independizó con García Ramírez. Luchó contra otros dos reclamantes al trono, uno, Pedro de Atarés, descendiente de un hermano ilegítimo del rey Sancho Ramírez, y el otro, Alfonso VII, rey de Castilla.
El reinado de Ramiro el Monje, como se le conoce, fue tumultuoso. Al comienzo de su reinado tuvo problemas con sus nobles, quienes pensaron que sería dócil y se guiaba fácilmente por sus deseos, pero descubrieron que era inflexible. Para producir un heredero, se casó con Agnes, hija del duque Guillermo IX de Aquitania. Una vez casados, su esposa dio a luz a una hija, Petronila, que se comprometió con Ramón Berenguer IV a la edad de dos años. El contrato de matrimonio, firmado en Barbastro el 11 de agosto de 1137, convirtió a Petronila en la heredera de la corona de Aragón, que en caso de muerte sin hijos pasaría a Ramón Berenguer y a cualquier hijo que pudiera tener con otra esposa. Ramón aceptó a Ramiro como "Rey, Señor y Padre", renunció a su apellido a favor de la Casa de Aragón y unió el Condado de Barcelona con el Reino. Esta unión, que pasó a llamarse Confederación Catalanoaragonesa (Confederación Catalano-Aragonesa), creó la Corona de Aragón, devolviendo el 'reino de bolsillo' de Aragón a la posición de poder peninsular que había tenido antes de la pérdida de Navarra, también como si le diera una ventana al Mediterráneo occidental, llegaría a dominar.
En el tiempo transcurrido entre su adhesión y el compromiso de su hija, Ramiro II ya había tenido que sofocar una rebelión de los nobles, y sabiendo que no era un rey de guerra, pasó la autoridad real al yerno Ramon Berenguer en 13 de noviembre de 1137. Ramón se convirtió en el "Príncipe del pueblo aragonés" y jefe efectivo de los ejércitos del reino. Si bien Ramiro nunca renunció formalmente a sus derechos reales y se mantuvo al tanto de los negocios del reino, luego se retiró de la vida pública y se retiró al Monasterio de San Pedro en Huesca.
Si bien Ramiro nunca renunció formalmente a sus derechos reales y se mantuvo al tanto de los negocios del reino, luego se retiró de la vida pública y se retiró al Monasterio de San Pedro en Huesca.

Ramiro II of Aragon
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
La Campana de Huesca by José Casado del Alisal, illustrating the Bell of Huesca.Ramiro II (c.1075–16 August 1157, Huesca), called the Monk, was King of Aragon from 1134 until 1137. He was the youngest son of Sancho Ramírez, King of Aragon and Navarre, and Felicia of Roucy.
He spent most of his early life as monk in a French monastery and later as abbot of St. Peter at Huesca. In 1134, when his brother Alfonso the Battler died heirless, Ramiro was bishop of Barbastro-Roda. He temporarily gave up his monastic vows in order to secure the succession to the crown of Aragon, while losing Navarre, which had formed part of his late brother's dominions but in 1134 became independent under García Ramírez. He fought off two other claimants to the throne, one, Pedro de Atarés, descended from an illegitimate brother of king Sancho Ramírez, and the other, Alfonso VII, king of Castile.
The reign of Ramiro the Monk, as he is known, was tumultuous. At the beginning of his reign he had problems with his nobles, who thought he would be docile and easily steered to their wishes, but discovered him to be inflexible. In order to produce an heir, he married Agnes, daughter of Duke William IX of Aquitaine. Once wed, his wife bore a daughter, Petronila, who was betrothed to Ramon Berenguer IV at the age of two. The marriage contract, signed at Barbastro on 11 August 1137, made Petronila the heiress to the crown of Aragon, which in event of her childless death would pass to Ramon Berenguer and any children he might have by another wife. Ramon accepted Ramiro as "King, Lord and Father", renounced his family name in favor of the House of Aragon and united the County of Barcelona with the Kingdom. This union, which came to be called the Confederacion Catalanoaragonesa (Catalan-Aragonese Confederation), created the Crown of Aragon, returning the 'pocket kingdom' of Aragon to the position of peninsular power it had held prior to the loss of Navarre, as well as giving it a window to the Western Mediterranean it would come to dominate.
In the time between his accession and the betrothal of his daughter, Ramiro II had already had to put down a rebellion of the nobles, and knowing himself not to be a war king, he passed royal authority to son-in-law Ramon Berenguer on 13 November 1137. Ramon became the "Prince of the Aragonesse people" and effective chief of the kingdom's armies. While Ramiro never formally resigned his royal rights and kept aware of the business of the kingdom, he then withdrew from public life, retiring to the San Pedro Monastery in Huesca. He later became known for the famous and passionate legend of the Bell of Huesca. He died there 16 August 1157, the crown then formally passing to his daughter Petronila.
Ramiro II of Aragon
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ramiro II of Aragon 'the Monk' (c. 1075-August 16, 1157, at Huesca/Uesca), son of Sancho Ramírez, King of Aragón and Navarre and Felicie of Roucy, was king of Aragon from 1134 until 1137.
He spent most of his early life as monk in a French monastery and later as abbot of St. Peter at Huesca. In 1134, when his brother Alfonso the Battler died heirless, Ramiro was bishop of Barbastro-Roda. He temporarily gave up his monastic vows in order to secure the succession to the crown. Although Ramiro had to put up with the loss of Navarre, which had formed part of his late brother's dominions but in 1134 became independent under García Ramírez, he fought off two other claimants to the throne, one Pedro de Atarés, an illegitimate connection of the royal line, and the other, Alfonso VII, king of Castile.
The reign of Ramiro the Monk, as he is known, was a turmoil and although he never renounced to his legitimate Royal Rights (until his death in Huesca, 16-VIII-1157) he relied his Royal Authority quite soon to his son in law Ramon Berenguer IV, Count of Barcelona. Ramiro was not a war king and he was aware of it. At the beginning of this reign he had a lot of problems with his nobles who though he was going to be a docile man and they discovered he was a piece of ice. However, in that short time he managed to put down the rebellion of his nobles. In order to produce an heir, he married Agnes, daughter of Duke William IX of Aquitaine. Once wed, his wife bore a daughter, Petronila, who was betrothed to Ramon Berenguer IV at age two.
This way Ramiro was sure to have a great commanding general for his (the Aragonesse) armies. The conditions for this marriage were arranged and signed in the city of Barbastro the August 11 of 1137. Ramon Berenger IV had to accepted Ramiro as his "King, Lord and Father", he had to renounce his family name in favour of the House of Aragon and the Count of Barcelona united to the Kingdom. The "Corona de Aragon" was initially formed. The name Confederacion Catalanoaragonesa was not recorded until XIX siecle. This denomination comes from the renaixença, and was stablished in books as the "monografía de Antonio de Bofarull y Broca" and "La confederación catalano-aragonesa" (Barcelona, Luis Tasso, 1872)).
Ramon Berenguer became then the "Prince of the Aragonesse people" (as the meaning of that time was "Chief of the Army")and then "Count of Barcelona". This document is now kept and can be checked in the "Archivos de la Corona de Aragón" in Barcelona. Later this year, the November 13, Ramiro II gives the authority of the kingdom to his son in law but never his title, instead he came back to San Pedro Monastery in Huesca where he was always aware of the bussiness of the Kingdom, this way he will be always known as the "Ramiro the Monk" and he is also celebre for the famous and passionate legend "The bell of Huesca". The heir-line for the Aragonesse Crown fixed in the marriage contract was: Petronila de Aragón became the Queen of Aragon and the Countess of Barcelona. Then the line passed to her descendants, if she was dead with no child then the right could have passed to Ramon Berenguer. Her son Alfonso II became King of Aragon and Count of Barcelona.
