Saint Lucius I
Pape (22 ème) de 253 à 254 (+ 254)
Il fut le successeur du pape saint Corneille. Exilé pour sa foi au Christ durant la persécution de l'empereur Valérien (253-260), il revint à Rome où les fidèles l'accueillirent avec enthousiasme selon ce qu'en écrit saint Cyprien. Il est inhumé au cimetière romain de saint-Calixte.
À Rome, au cimetière de Calliste sur la voie Appienne, en 254, la mise au tombeau de saint Lucius, pape. Successeur de saint Corneille, il fut presque aussitôt envoyé en exil, sous l’empereur Gallus, mais ensuite, par une disposition divine, il revint indemne dans son Église, confesseur invincible de la foi. Saint Cyprien l’a célébré par de grandes louanges.

Saint Lucius Ier, pape et martyr
Mort en 254, fête en 1602.
Bhx Cardinal Schuster, Liber Sacramentorum
La fête annuelle de cet illustre Pontife (+ 254) célébré par saint Cyprien pour sa douceur et son esprit de concorde, est notée dans le Catalogue Philocalien des Depositiones Episcoporum de 336. Aujourd’hui encore, dans la crypte papale de la nécropole romaine de Calixte, l’on voit son épigraphe sépulcrale primitive.
Cependant, après l’abandon des cimetières vers le VIIIe siècle, sa commémoration disparut complètement des Sacramentaires et des calendriers romains, et ce fut seulement sous Clément VIII qu’elle fut rétablie dans le Bréviaire. Saint Lucius ne mourut pas, à vrai dire, de mort violente, aussi anciennement son nom ne se trouvait pas dans les Natalitia Martyrum, mais seulement dans les Depositiones Episcoporum. En effet, il fut exilé de Rome presque aussitôt son ordination ; il revint ensuite à son Siège, mais mourut peu de semaines après. Saint Cyprien. qui loue grandement saint Lucius, mentionne une ou plusieurs de ses lettres sur la manière de traiter les lapsi [1]. On vénère son corps dans la basilique transtévérine de Sainte-Cécile.
La messe (avant 1942) est celle du Commun des Martyrs Pontifes, Sacerdótes Dei, puisque l’usage liturgique de ces derniers siècles est de considérer comme une peine équivalente au martyre les tribulations de l’exil et les afflictions que, en temps de terrible persécution, durent supporter ces antiques héros de la foi, même si le glaive du bourreau ne trancha pas leur tête. Le voisinage des tombes de sainte Cécile et du pape Lucius est digne de remarque. Ce Pontife fut d’abord enseveli dans la crypte papale de la voie Appienne, tout à côté par conséquent de l’hypogée des Cœcilii chrétiens, où, jusqu’au temps de Paschal Ier, avait reposé l’illustre vierge Cécile. Quand celle-ci fut transférée dans le Titre élevé sur l’emplacement de son habitation, on y porta aussi les corps des papes Urbain et Lucius, qui attendent dans son voisinage la résurrection finale. La Secrète et la Postcommunion sont empruntées à la messe Statuit.

Papa Lucio I nella Cappella Sistina
S. Lucius Ier
4 mars
RÉSUMÉ :
Saint Lucius, prêtre romain, fut élu pour succéder
à saint
Corneille martyrisé sous Gallus. Exilé pour la Foi, il fut rappelé
« avec le double honneur de confesseur et d’évêque ». Tellement que
« il sembla avoir été proscrit non pas pour priver l’Église de son
pasteur, mais seulement pour accroître son honneur et la joie des fidèles par
son heureux retour » (S.
Cyprien le félicitant).
C’est à saint Lucius que remonte le décret qui ordonne qu’au moins deux prêtres accompagnent toujours l’évêque en quelque lieu qu’il réside, afin « qu’il ait toujours des témoins de sa vie » (S. Damase). Saint Lucius eût la tête tranchée le 4 mars 253.
Saint Lucius Ier pape et martyr le 4 mars 253
Quelques auteurs disent que saint Lucius était natif de Lucques, et fils de Lucin, et d’autres, qu’il était Romain, et que son père s’appelait Porphyre. On pourrait concilier ces deux opinions, en disant qu’il est appelé Romain, à cause du long séjour qu’il a fait à Rome ; mais qu’il était de Lucques, et que son père s’appelait Porphyre Lucin. Ce qui favorise cette conjecture, c’est qu’anciennement le nom de Lucius était fort commun parmi les Lucquois.
Il fut ordonné Prêtre sous saint
Corneille, son prédécesseur, et envoyé avec lui en exil à
Civita-Vecchia ; mais il en fut délivré par la divine Providence, qui le
destinait à monter sur le siège apostolique, vacant depuis trente-cinq jours,
par le martyre de saint
Corneille, sous les empereurs Gallus et Volusien.
Aussitôt que saint Cyprien, Évêque de Carthage, apprit son élection, il l’en félicita par lettres. Mais son repos ne dura pas longtemps ; car les mêmes empereurs, continuant leur persécution contre les Chrétiens, le renvoyèrent une seconde fois en exil. Néanmoins, la même Providence, qui l’en avait délivré la première fois, l’en délivra encore celle-ci pour le bien de Son peuple : et il en revint plein d’honneur et de gloire, pour avoir constamment supporté cette peine, et donné des témoignages éclatants de son zèle et de son ardeur pour la religion chrétienne.
Saint Cyprien et les autres Évêques d’Afrique lui écrivirent des lettres de congratulation, dont voici quelques fragments : « Comme nous nous sommes réjouis depuis peu avec vous, Très-Saint Père, lorsque la divine Bonté vous a confié l’administration de Son Église, avec le double honneur de confesseur et d’Évêque, ainsi nous remercions maintenant cette même Bonté de ce qu’Elle vous a ramené avec la même gloire du lieu de votre exil, afin que le pasteur fût rendu à son troupeau, le pilote à son navire et le recteur à son peuple ; de sorte qu’il ne semble pas que vous ayiez été relégué pour priver l’Église de son Évêque, mais seulement pour accroître votre honneur et notre joie, par votre heureux retour ». Ce saint Évêque lui dit ensuite, par un esprit de prophétie, que, si son martyre était différé, la gloire de sa confession n’en serait pas diminuée, puisque Dieu ne l’avait ramené à Rome que pour lui préparer un plus beau théâtre de sa constance et de sa passion.
Il conféra deux fois les Ordres au mois de décembre, et créa quatre Prêtres, quatre Diacres et sept Évêques pour divers lieux. Il ordonna qu’au moins deux Prêtres et trois Diacres accompagneraient toujours l’Évêque en quelque lieu qu’il allât, afin, comme écrit saint Damase, qu’il eût des témoins de sa vie. Il fit aussi quelques autres décrets, que Gratien a recueillis. Ils se trouvent au premier tome des Conciles, et tous, comme saint Cyprien l’écrivit au Pape saint Étienne Ier, successeur de saint Lucius, sont dignes de vénération et de respect.
Enfin, ce que ce grand Évêque de Carthage lui avait
prédit arriva incontinent après ; car, l’empereur Volusien, continuant la
persécution contre l’Église, ce très saint Pape eut la tête tranchée le 4 mars,
l’an de Notre-Seigneur 253, le second de son pontificat, ainsi que le cardinal
Baronius l’a remarqué, au deuxième tome de ses Annales, où il rétracte ce
qu’il avait écrit sur le Martyrologe romain, que ce martyre arriva sous
l’empereur Valérien. Tous les Martyrologes font mémoire de saint Lucius, et
disent qu’il a été inhumé sur la voie Appienne.

Pope St. Lucius I
Reigned 253-254; died
at Rome,
5 March, 254. After the death of St.
Cornelius, who died in exile in the summer of 253, Lucius was chosen to
fill his place, and consecrated Bishop
of Rome. Nothing is known of
the early life of this pope before
his elevation. According to the "Liber
Pontificalis", he was Roman born, and his father's name
was Porphyrius. Where the author obtained this information is not known.
The persecution of
the Church under
the Emperor Gallus, during which Cornelius had
been banished, still went on. Lucius also was sent into exile soon after
his consecration,
but in a short time, presumably when Valerian was
made emperor, he was allowed to return to his flock. The Felician Catalogue,
whose information is found in the "Liber
Pontificalis", informs us of the banishment and the miraculous return
of Lucius: "Hic exul fuit et postea nutu Dei incolumis
ad ecclesiam reversus est." St.
Cyprian, who wrote a (lost) letter of congratulation to Lucius on his
elevation to the Roman
Seeand on his banishment, sent a second letter of congratulation to him and
his companions in exile, as well as to the whole Roman
Church (ep. lxi, ed. Hartel, II, 695 sqq.).
The letter begins:
Beloved Brother,
only a short time ago we offered you our congratulations, when in
exalting you to govern His Church God graciously
bestowed upon you the twofold glory of confessor and bishop.
Again we congratulate you, your companions, and the whole congregation, in
that, owing to the kind and mighty protection of our Lord, He has led you
back with praise and glory to His own, so that the flock can again
receive its shepherd, the ship her pilot, and the people a director to govern
them and to show openly that it was God's disposition
that He permitted your banishment, not that the bishop who
had been expelled should be deprived of his Church,
but rather that he might return to his Church with
greater authority.
Cyprian continues, alluding to the three Hebrew children in the fiery furnace, that the return from exile did not lessen the glory of the confession, and that the persecution, which was directed only against the confessors of the true Church, proved which was the Church of Christ. In conclusion he describes the joy of Christian Rome on the return of its shepherd. When Cyprian asserts that the Lord by means of persecution sought "to bring the heretics to shame and to silence them," and thus to prove where the Church was, who was her one bishop chosen by God's dispensation, who were her presbyters bound up with the bishop in the glory of the priesthood, who were the real people of Christ, united to His flock by a peculiar love, who were those who were oppressed by their enemies, and at the same time who those were whom the Devil protects as his own, he obviously means the Novatians. The schism of Novatian, through which he was brought forward as antipope, in opposition to Cornelius, still continued in Rome under Lucius.
In the matter of confession and the restoration of the "Lapsi" (fallen) Lucius adhered to the principles ofCornelius and Cyprian. According to the testimony of the latter, contained in a letter to Pope Stephen (ep. lxviii, 5, ed. Hartel, II, 748), Lucius, like Cornelius, had expressed his opinions in writing: "Illi enim pleni spiritu Domini et in glorioso martyrio constituti dandam esse lapsis pacem censuerunt et poenitentia acta fructum communicationis et pacis negandum non esse litteris suis signaverunt." (For they, filled with the spirit of the Lordand confirmed in glorious martyrdom, judged that pardon ought to be given to the Lapsi, and signified in their letters that, when these had done penance, they were not to be denied the enjoyment of communion and reconciliation.) Lucius died in the beginning of March, 254. In the "Depositio episcoporum" the "Chronograph of 354" gives the date of his death as 5 March, the "Martyrologium Hieronymianum" as 4 March. The first date is probably right. Perhaps Lucius died on 4 March and was buried 5 March. According to the "Liber Pontificalis" thispope was beheaded in the time of Valerian, but this testimony cannot be admitted. It is true that Cyprian in the letter to Stephen above mentioned (ep. lxviii, 5) gives him, as well as Cornelius, the honorary title of martyr: "servandus est enim antecessorum nostrorum beatorum martyrum Cornelii et Lucii honor gloriosus" (for theglorious memory of our predecessors the blessed martyrs Cornelius and Lucius is to be preserved); but probably this was on account of Lucius's short banishment. Cornelius, who died in exile, was honoured as a martyr by the Romans after his death; but not Lucius. In the Roman calendar of feasts of the "Chronograph of 354" he is mentioned in the "Depositio episcoporum", and not under the head of "Depositio martyrum". His memory was, nevertheless, particularly honoured, as is clear from the appearance of his name in the "Martyrologium Hieronymianum". Eusebius, it is true, maintains (Church History VII.10) that Valerian was favourable to the Christians in the early part of his reign. The emperor's first persecution edict appeared only in 257.
Lucius was buried in a compartment of the papal vault in the catacombs of St. Callistus. On the excavation of the vault, de Rossi found a large fragment of the original epitaph, which only gives the pope's name in Greek: LOUKIS. The slab is broken off just behind the word, so that in all probability there was nothing else on it except the title EPISKOPOS (bishop). The relics of the saint were transferred by Pope Paul I (757-767) to the church ofSan Silvestro in Capite, or by Pope Paschal I (817-824) to the Basilica of St. Praxedes [Marucchi, "Basiliques et eglisesde Rome", Rome, 1902, 399 (inscription in San Silvestro), 325 (inscription in S. Praxedes)]. The author of the "Liber Pontificalis" has unauthorizedly ascribed to St. Lucius a decretal, according to which two priests and three deacons must always accompany the bishop to bear witness to his virtuous life: "Hic praecepit, ut duo presbyteri et tres diaconi in omni loco episcopum non desererent propter testimonium ecclesiasticum." Such a measure might have been necessary under certain conditions at a later period; but in Lucius's time it was incredible. This alleged decree induced a later forger to invent another apocryphal decretal, and attribute it to Lucius. The story in the "Liber Pontificalis" that Lucius, as he was being led to death, gave the archdeacon Stephen power over the Church, is also a fabrication. The feast of St. Lucius is held on 4 March.

The
Lives and Times of the Popes – Saint Lucius I – A.D. 252
Article
It is probable that Saint
Lucius I, a Roman priest, one of the companions in exile of Saint Cornelius,
was elected at Civita Vecchia. He received the pontificate A.D. 252. He ordered
that the ministers of the altars should never be chosen except from among men
of the purest virtue, and that none of them should ever go unaccompanied into a
house occupied by a woman, and that no priest should reside with a woman unless
she should be of his nearest kindred. The penalty of the priest for breach of
that regulation was deposition; for the woman, exclusion from the Church.
Lucius, who, like Saint
Evaristus, was anxious for the greatness and dignity of the pontificate and the
episcopacy, ordered that two priests and three deacons should constantly
accompany the pontiff and the bishops as witnesses of their whole course of
life. At the commencement of his pontificate, Lucius was sent into exile, but
was soon afterwards recalled. This recall was caused, not by repentance, but
merely by a caprice of cruelty, as the Eternal City was soon convinced. We are
informed of this return by a letter of Saint Cyprian congratulating him. Lucius
received that letter with a transport of joy. The motive of the congratulation
was worthy of both saints. The African doubted not that God had granted the
termination of an exile in an obscure place to bring back upon a more brilliant
theatre one who was destined to perish before the people of Rome. Felicitations
of this kind are to be found only in the epistles of Christians.
Saint Lucius received the
crown of martyrdom on the 5th March, A.D. 253.
In two ordinations this
pope created seven bishops, four priests, and four deacons. He governed the
Church a little more than five months. He was interred in the cemetery of Saint
Calixtus.

LUCIO I, santo
di Francesco Scorza Barcellona - Enciclopedia dei Papi
(2000)
Lucio I, santo
L'episcopato di L. durò poco meno di otto mesi,
secondo quanto afferma Eusebio di
Cesarea: dall'estate del 253 al 5 marzo dell'anno successivo, data della
sua morte documentata dal Catalogo Liberiano e dalla Depositio episcoporum
del Cronografo
del 354: erroneamente il Catalogo Liberiano e il Liber pontificalis,
nr. 23, gli attribuiscono un pontificato di oltre tre anni.
Da una lettera indirizzatagli da Cipriano di Cartagine si
ricava che L. era stato esiliato, verosimilmente dall'imperatore Gallo, come
già il suo predecessore Cornelio, ma che in seguito poté rientrare a Roma, probabilmente dopo
l'accesso al potere di Valeriano: Cipriano vi si congratula per il suo ritorno
dall'esilio, accenna a un'altra lettera che gli avrebbe scritto in occasione
della sua elezione (Epistularium 61, 1, 1), e allude alla presenza di seguaci
di Novaziano a Roma quando afferma che nella persecuzione il Signore mostra
quale sia la sua Chiesa, l'unico vescovo da lui scelto e i suoi sacerdoti uniti
al loro vescovo, in quanto il diavolo perseguita solo gli accampamenti e i
seguaci di Cristo, mentre non degna di uno sguardo quelli che sono già stati
abbattuti e sono diventati suoi (ibid. 61, 3, 1-2). L'esilio di L. è attestato
anche nel Catalogo Liberiano e quindi dal Liber pontificalis.
In un'altra lettera Cipriano accomuna Cornelio e L.,
definiti "beati martyres", per la loro decisione di dover concedere la
pace a quanti avevano ceduto durante la persecuzione (Epistularium 68, 5, 1),
accennando a loro lettere in cui si affermava che non si dovesse negare la
comunione a chi avesse fatto penitenza. La lettera di L. a Cipriano è andata
perduta: presumibilmente anche L., come il suo predecessore Cornelio, vi doveva
assumere una posizione contraria al rigorismo di Novaziano e dei suoi seguaci.
Nonostante il fatto che Cipriano attribuisca il titolo di martire a L. come a
Cornelio, L. non morì martire, in quanto nei primi anni del suo impero
Valeriano si dimostrò favorevole ai cristiani, come afferma il contemporaneo
Dionigi di Alessandria in
una sua lettera a Ermammone (citata in Eusebio di Cesarea, Historia
ecclesiastica VII, 10, 3). Del resto la più antica tradizione della Chiesa
romana, consegnata nella Depositio episcoporum, distingue nettamente L. dai
papi martiri elencati nella Depositio martyrum.
Il Liber pontificalis, nr. 23, riprende la tradizione
del martirio di L. che sarebbe avvenuto per ordine di Valeriano; più
precisamente, ma solo nella seconda redazione, vi si racconta che, mentre era
diretto al luogo del martirio, L. avrebbe affidato il governo della Chiesa al
suo arcidiacono Stefano. Un'analoga scena si legge nello stesso Liber
pontificalis, nr. 24, in una aggiunta del ms. Vat. lat. 3764 (sec. XI), a
proposito di papa Stefano e del suo arcidiacono Sisto, ed è propria della
tradizione agiografica relativa a Sisto II e all'arcidiacono Lorenzo:
verosimilmente si tratta di un luogo comune originatosi forse nella leggenda di
papa Sisto e dell'arcidiacono Lorenzo, poi variamente applicato a L. e Stefano,
immediati predecessori di Sisto II. Il Liber pontificalis aggiunge altri
dettagli non tutti verificabili: L. sarebbe stato romano, figlio di Porfirio
(una variante è "Tuscus, de civitate Luca, ex patre Lucino", in luogo
di "Romanus ex patre Porphyrio"), avrebbe emanato la disposizione che
il papa non fosse mai abbandonato da due presbiteri e tre diaconi "propter
testimonium ecclesiasticum", espressione che probabilmente esprime la
necessità di affidare la reputazione del vescovo a testimoni autorevoli e
vigili; L. avrebbe inoltre ordinato quattro presbiteri, quattro diaconi e sette
vescovi e la sua morte sarebbe stata seguita da trentacinque giorni di sede
vacante. La sepoltura di L. sarebbe avvenuta il 28 agosto nel cimitero di
Callisto, ove, effettivamente, nella cripta dei papi è stato ritrovato un
frammento di iscrizione con il nome "ΛΟϒΚΙC", che potrebbe a lui
riferirsi. Si ritiene che la data della sepoltura distinta da quella della
morte sia falsa, nonostante i tentativi di de Rossi di ammetterle entrambe
considerando l'eventualità di una sepoltura provvisoria e di un'altra
definitiva.
Risale alla seconda metà del sec. XI una Passio sancti Lucii papae (Bibliotheca Hagiographica Latina [...], nr. 5022), opera di Guaiferio di Montecassino, attivo nell'abbazia tra il 1084 e il 1086. Questa Passio, che ci è giunta mutila della parte finale, è quasi del tutto priva di riferimenti biografici su L., tutta intesa ad esaltare in lui la figura del papa.
A Roma le reliquie di L. furono collocate nel IX
secolo nella basilica di S. Cecilia insieme a quelle che si ritennero essere
della vergine romana e dei suoi compagni di martirio, e dove furono oggetto di
ricognizioni in età
moderna. Una tradizione medievale, attestata da un racconto di traslazione
nelle lezioni dell'Ufficio per l'apposita festa del 25 agosto, vuole che la
reliquia del suo capo si conservi a Roskilde, in Danimarca, della cui
chiesa cattedrale è attestata la titolatura a s. Lucio sin dal sec. XIII: il
racconto di traslazione non ha però riferimenti cronologici.
Non è certo, ma non è stato escluso, che la commemorazione di L. al 4 marzo figurasse già nel Martyrologium Hieronymianum. Questa data, presente nel Liber pontificalis nella sua prima redazione (la seconda, più correttamente, riporta quella del 5 marzo attestata dalla Depositio episcoporum), è passata ai martirologi medievali, a partire da quello dell'Anonimo Lionese, e da questi al Martyrologium Romanum. Nel Calendarium Romanum del 1969 la commemorazione di L. è stata espunta perché stando alla fonte più attendibile, in questo caso la Depositio episcoporum, non risulta che a L. spetti il titolo di martire.
