Honorius
Honorius explores the personal life and tumultuous times of one of the last emperors of the Roman West. From his accession to the throne aged ten to his death at thirty-eight, Honorius’ reign was blighted by a myriad of crises: military rebellions, political conspiracies, barbarian invasions, and sectarian controversies. The notorious sack of the city of Rome occurred on Honorius’ watch, and much of the western empire was given over to anarchy and violence. This book should interest undergraduates, research students, and professional scholars. Given the enduring appeal of the fall of Rome and the collapse of western Roman civilization, the wider public should also find much of interest.
Emperor Honorius
Emperor of the Western Roman Empire at the age of eight, Honorius ruled over one of the most chaotic periods of Roman History. During his reign, the empire witnessed both the abandonment of Britain and the 'Sack of Rome,' two historically significant events. This period also saw the rise of rebellions and usurpations from within the Roman Empire and invasions from beyond its borders. The one constancy in this period that provided a sense of stability for the Empire’s citizens was the emperor who reigned for thirty years and defeated all others who attempted to steal his throne. The name of Honorius has been considerably blackened by his enemies and is almost forgotten. This is due to the 'Sack of Rome' and the abandonment of Britain, for which many blamed Honorius personally, despite his attempts at preventing the two events. It is this image of Honorius as being feeble and weak that has most successfully travelled through history. This is a new (and short) history of the life and reign of the Western Roman Emperor Honorius.

The one constancy in this period that provided a sense of stability for the Empire’s citizens was the emperor who reigned for thirty years and defeated all others who attempted to steal his throne. The name of Honorius has been considerably blackened by his enemies due to the 'Sack of Rome' and the abandonment of Britain, blaming him personally for the disasters, despite the fact that he attempted to prevent them.

The Papacy and Ecclesiology of Honorius II (1124-1130)
A complete reappraisal of the papacy of Honorius II, highlighting the strategies to which this pontificate turned in order to govern ecclesiastical institutions and to deal with secular matters.The papacy of Honorius II (1124-1130) has often been overlooked by historians, usually considered uneventful, transitional and colourless. This book offers a complete reappraisal, drawing on a detailed examination of the surviving letters produced by the papal chancery to show that conversely, it was a vital and innovative pontificate. It argues that during what was a stabilising period for the papacy in an era of peace, Honorius and the chancery were able to enact the instruments and ecclesiological ...

The Grimoire of Pope Honorius, English Edition
The Grimoire of Pope Honorius, or Le Grimoire du Pape Honorius, is an 17th to 19th century grimoire, claiming to be written by Pope Honorius III (1150 -1227). It is unique among grimoires in that it was specifically designed to be used by a priest, and some of the instructions include saying a Mass. While its name is derived from the 13th century Grimoire of Honorius, its content is closer to later grimories like the Key of Solomon and Grimorium Verum. Edited and translated into English by Edmund Kelly The Grimoire of Pope Honorius Is a book that holds its place in occult literature.
The Condemnation of Pope Honorius
From the intro: "Much ink has been spilt in the cause of Pope Honorius. Some writers have been chiefly occupied in defending or assailing the authenticity of the documents, others in attacking or supporting the orthodoxy of Honorius. But the inner sequence of events as described in the following sketch has never been given in all this voluminous literature. Though it will, I hope, be made clear in these pages that much has been misunderstood or only half understood, yet the work of so many distinguished writers has no inconsiderable value. Certainty has been attained on some points. The authenticity of the documents is now above suspicion. It has been made clear that Honorius' meaning was far better than his expression, and that his real mind was confused rather than unorthodox. This is not, however, a very important point, since at the present day no one is likely to teach that Honorius published his famous letters ex cathedra. The real difficulty has been worded with admirable precision by Bishop Gore in his Roman Catholic Claims."
