Eufrozina magyar királyné [szerkeszt%C3%A9s]

Eufrozina vagy Fruzsina (Kijev, 1130 - Jeruzsálem, 1193): magyar királyné, II. Géza felesége, III. István és III. Béla anyja.

Élete [szerkeszt%C3%A9s]

1130-ban született I. Miciszláv kijevi nagyfejedelem és második felesége, egy Liubava nevű novgorodi nemeslány leányaként. 1146-ban kérte meg kezét Belos bán a 16 éves II. Géza magyar király számára, hogy az orosz anyától származó és orosz neveltetésű magyar trónkövetelőnek, Borisz hercegnek az oroszországi összeköttetéseit ezáltal gyengítse. A házasságot még ugyanebben az évben megkötötték, Eufrozina Magyarországra költözött. Nyolc gyermeke született:

-1. III. István (1147 - 1172. március 4.)

-2. III. Béla (1148 - 1196. április 24.)

-3. Margit (1149 - 1190 után), Frigyes cseh herceg felesége

-4. Géza (1151 - 1210 előtt)

-5. Árpád - fiatalon meghalt

-6. Odola (kb. 1156 - 1169 után), kb. 1164-től Svatopluk cseh herceg felesége

-7. Ilona (1158 - 1199. május 25.), 1172/74-től V. Lipót osztrák herceg felesége

-8. Margit (1162 - 1208), előbb Isaac Macrodukas, majd András somogyi főispán felesége

Mint magyar királyné, igen nagy befolyást gyakorolt férje elhatározásaira. Felesége kedvéért II. Géza több ízben nyújtott katonai segítséget rokonainak, különösképpen sógorának, II. Izjaszláv kijevi nagyfejedelemnek a csehek elleni háborúiban.

Eufrozina 1162-ben jutott nagyobb szerephez, amikor férje korai halála után kiskorú fia, III. István nevében átvette a kormányt. A bizánci támogatással fellépő II. László elől 1162-ben Pozsonyba menekült, majd Ausztriában talált menedéket. Nagy része volt abban, hogy III. István 1166-ban feleségül vette Ágnest, II. Henrik osztrák herceg leányát.

II. Géza fivéreinek, az I. Mánuel bizánci császár által pártfogolt II. Lászlónak és IV. Istvánnak a bukása után III. István 1165-ben hosszas harcok után ismét visszaszerezhette trónját. Fia uralkodása alatt Eufrozina csendesen és köztiszteletben élt a királyi udvarban.

III. István néhány évvel később, 1172. március 4-én váratlanul meghalt, és hívei Bizáncban élő öccsének, III. Bélának ajánlották föl a trónt. Béla 1172 tavaszán hazaérkezve szembesült azzal, hogy a Bizánchoz fűződő kapcsolatai miatt nem egységes a támogatottsága. Eufrozina is ellene fordult, és helyette ifjabbik fiát, Géza herceget akarta trónra juttatni. Ezért Béla félreállította testvérét: miután Géza fellázadt, börtönbe záratta, az anyakirálynét pedig elfogatta, majd a Szentföldre száműzte.

Eufrozinának ennélfogva el kellett hagynia az országot, szentföldi száműzetésébe legkisebb leánya, Margit hercegnő is elkísérte. Jeruzsálemben halt meg 1193-ban, holttestét később hazahozták, és az általa alapított templomban Székesfehérvárott temették el.

Euphrosyne of Kiev

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Euphrosyne of Kiev, (c. 1130 – c. 1193), Queen Consort of Hungary.

Euphrosyne was the first daughter of Grand Prince Mstislav I of Kiev and his second wife, Liubava Dmitrievna. In 1146, she was married to King Géza II of Hungary, who had come of age shortly before.

During his husband's reign she did not intervene in the politics of the kingdom, but after his death on 31 May 1162, her influence strengthened over their son, King Stephen III. The young king had to struggle against his uncles Ladislaus and Stephen to save his throne, and Euphrosyne took an active part in the struggles. She persuaded King Vladislaus II of Bohemia to give military assistance to her son against the invasion of the Emperor Manuel I Komnenos.

Euphrosyne's favourite son was the youngest, Duke Géza. Therefore, when King Stephen III died on 4 March 1172, she was planning to ensure his succession against her older son, Béla who had been living in the court of the Emperor Manuel I Komnenos. However, Béla came back, and he was crowned on 13 January 1173 although the Archbishop Lukas of Esztergom denied his coronation. Shortly afterwards, King Béla III had his brother arrested which increased the tension between Euphrosyne and his son. Although, Duke Géza managed to escape from his captivity soon, probably with Euphrosyne's help, but in 1177 he was again arrested.

In 1186, Euphrosyne tried to release his younger son again, but she failed. King Béla III ordered to arrest his mother and kept her confined in the fortress of Barancs (Serbian: Braničevo). Shortly afterwards, Euphrosyne was set free but she was obliged to leave the kingdom for Constantinople. From Constantinople she moved to Jerusalem where he lived as a nun in the convent of the Hospitallers and then in the Basilian monastery of Saint Sabbas.

Snorre Sturlasson nevner heller ikke Euphrosyne som datter til Christina. I følgende avsnitt fra Magnussønnenes saga kalles Mstislav «Kong Harald Valdemarsson øst fra Holmgard»:

«20. Kong Sigurd ble gift med Malmfrid, datter til kong Harald Valdemarsson øst fra Holmgard. Mor til kong Harald var Gyda den gamle, datter til den engelske kongen Harald Gudinesson. Mor til Malmfrid var Kristin, datter til sveakongen Inge Steinkjelsson. Søster til Malmfrid var Ingelborg, som var gift med Knut Lavard, sønn til danekongen Eirik den gode, som var sønn til Svein Ulvsson. Knuts og Ingelborgs barn var Valdemar (den store), som tok kongedømme i Danmark etter Svein Eiriksson, Margret, Kristin og Katrin. Margret var gift med Stig Hvitlær, og de hadde en datter Kristin, som var gift med sveakongen Karl Sorkvesson. Deres sønn var kong Sorkve (Sverker).»
