Notes par Roger (Roger I) van Apulie Sicilie

Roger I, Count of Sicily, born 1031, died 15 July 1101

The youngest son of Tancred de Hauteville, he followed his elder brothersfrom Normandy to Italy in 1057. Roger was given the task of conqueringSicily from the Saracens; it took him from 1062 until 1091 before hefinally succeeded.

A local story tells how, while at Messina, he was besieged by Sicilianrefugees
2 CONC begging him to free Sicily from the Saracens. When he hesitated,Morgana, the fairy of Arthurian legends, appeared in her glory beforehim. She
2 CONC showed him her white coach which would carry him across thestraits. To show him her power, she made towns and palaces from the otherside
2 CONC appear so near that Roger could touch them.

However, being cautious, he replied that he would sail with his men forSicily
2 CONC in ships of his own fleet at the right moment, and that he wouldwin not by magic but with the help of Christ. At the mention of Christ'sname,
2 CONC the fairy, the coach, and the towns and palaces all disappeared.

Since then, due to reflection and refraction of light in unusualatmospheric
2 CONC states---the same causes for mirages in deserts---people canseemen, ships, streets, palaces and houses in the air or the sea. Thepeople
2 CONC living near the Straits of Messina call the phenomenon "FataMorgana".Roger's greatest support was his first wife, Judith d'Evreux, butsadlyshe died
2 CONC in 1076. A year later he married Eremberge de Mortain; but itwas his third wife, Adelaide de Savona, who became the mother of hisheir.Known
2 CONC as the Grand Count of Sicily, Roger died in 1101 and wasburied with his first wife in the Cathedral of Mileto.=*=*=*=*=Roger I, ook Roger d'Hauteville (Hauteville 1031 - Mileto, Calabrië, 22juni
2 CONC 1101), hertog van Apulië, was de jongste van de twaalf zoons van deNormandiër Tancred. Hij volgde zijn oudere broer Robert Guiscard inCalabrië op
2 CONC en werd door deze belast met het bestuur over Sicilië. In1085 werd hij hoofd van de Normandiërs in Italië. Dit alles gebeurde
2 CONC metinstemming van de paus, maar ook van de bevolking, want Roger toonde
2 CONC zichverdraagzaam en begunstigde de handel. Ook op zee werd hij machtig."Roger I," Encarta® - Encyclopedie 2000 - Winkler Prins. © 1993-1999Microsoft
