Joasaph I of Constantinople (Greek:Ἰωάσαφ Κόκκας (Ioasaf Kokkas); died after 1463) wasEcumenical Patriarch of Constantinople in the 1460s. The exact dates of his reign are disputed by scholars at various times ranging from 1462 to 1465.

Life

[edit]

Antony Kokkas was born probably to Western parents and he became a monk. According to Laurent^[2] and Kiminas^[3] he was elected as Patriarch with the name of Joasaph I on 1 April 1462, in a rush the day after the death of PatriarchIsidore II of Constantinople. During his patriarchate, he had to face troubles caused by clashes with monks and intrigues of the Greek nobility.

The intrigue that led to the tragic end of Joasaph's patriarchate involved the scholar and politicianGeorge Amiroutzes, renowned for having persuaded EmperorDavid of Trebizond to surrender to theOttomans, and who, along with all the nobility of the formerEmpire of Trebizond, had moved toConstantinople. George Amiroutzes had become an intimate of SultanMehmed II and wanted to marry the beautifulMouchliotissa, widow of lastDuke of Athens Francesco II Acciaioli, notwithstanding that he was already married and his wife was still alive.^[4] Patriarch Joasaph I refused to grant his permission because it was a case ofbigamy undercanon law. George Amiroutzes pressed forward and turned to his cousin, theGrand vizier Mahmud Pasha Angelović, who tried to influence theHoly Synod to depose Joasaph I. Some scholars propose different details for these events.

Irritated by the refusal of Joasaph I to allow the new marriage of Amiroutzes, Sultan Mehmed II ordered the Patriarch's humiliation by cutting his beard and punished also theMegas Ekklesiarches (i.e. HeadSacristan) Manuel, the future PatriarchMaximus III of Constantinople, by cutting his nose.^[5] These events led Joasaph I to a state of depression which culminated in his attempted suicide: the day of Easter 1463 (10 April) he deliberately threw himself in thecistern beneath thePammakaristos Church.^[2]

Joasaph I was rescued, deposed and exiled toAnchialos,^[2] opening the way for George Amiroutzes to marry his new wife.^[5]

Disputed chronology

[edit]

The chronology of the reign of Joasaph I is disputed among scholars. Recent scholarship, such as Kiminas (2009),^[3] Podskalsky (1988),^[6] Laurent (1968)^[2] and Runciman (1985)^[4] place the reign of Joasaph I afterIsidore II of Constantinople and beforeSophronius I of Constantinople, dating it between 1 April 1462 and Easter (10 April) 1463.

Other scholars, following Bishop Gemanos of Sardeis (1933–1938)^[7] and Grumel (1958)^[8], as well as the official website of the Ecumenical Patriarchate,^[9] propose that Joasaph I reigned after Sophronius I and beforeMark II of Constantinople, suggesting that his reign begun in early 1465 (or July 1465) and ended in first months of 1466. Blanchet (2001)^[10] places the beginning of the reign of Joasaph I in summer 1464 directly after Sophronius I.

Furthermore, there is no consensus among scholars on the length and chronology of the second and third terms ofGennadius II of Constantinople which supposedly alternated the patriarchates of Joasaph I and Sophronius I. For a comparison of the main scholar suggestions, see theEcumenical Patriarch of Constantinople.
