sometimes called LOTHAIRE OF SAXONY, succeeded Henry V as emperor of Germany in 1125. Lothaire was born in 1075, and was the son of Gebhard, count of Arnsberg. He is noted in Church history for the part he took in the struggle against Innocent II, whom he installed in Rome in 1136, a service for which he was rewarded by the papal incumbent with coronation at Rome (comp. the comments on this act by Lea, Studies in Ch. Hist. page 37, note). He died in 1137. Jaffe, Gesch. des deutschen Reiches unter Lothar von Sachsen (1843). (See INNOCENT II).
