He was a slaveholding planter in Maury County, Tennessee, and a second cousin of President James K. Polk. He resigned his ecclesiastical position to become a major-general in the Confederate States Army, when he was called "Sewanee's Fighting Bishop". His official portrait at the University of the South depicts him dressed as a bishop with his army uniform hanging nearby. He is often erroneously referred to as "Leonidas K.

dbp:quote
Besides being a basically incompetent general, Polk had the added fault of hating to take orders. My pen and ability is inadequate to the task of doing his memory justice. Every private soldier loved him. Second to Stonewall Jackson, his loss was the greatest the South ever sustained. When I saw him there dead, I felt that I had lost a friend whom I had ever loved and respected, and that the South had lost one of her best and greatest Generals. The army had suffered a severe loss. It was not that Polk had been a spectacular corps officer. His deficiencies as a commander and his personal traits of stubbornness and childishness had played no small role in several of the army's disasters in earlier times. The loss was one of morale and experience. Polk was the army's most beloved general, a representative of that intangible identification of the army with Tennessee. Bragg thoroughly despised ... the genial but pompous and often incompetent Bishop Polk. Bragg considered Polk "an old woman, utterly worthless", especially at disciplining men. Unfortunately for Bragg and for the Confederacy as a whole, Polk remained a great favorite of Jefferson Davis despite carefully couched hints from Bragg, which protected the irritatingly self-righteous Polk from the increasingly sycophantic Bragg and made his appointment to wing command a political necessity.

Leonidas Polk fue un general confederado en la Guerra de Secesión. También fue obispo de la Diócesis Episcopal de Luisiana y fue por ello es conocido como "El Obispo Guerrero" (en inglés: "The Fighting Bishop"). Polk fue uno de los generales políticos más controvertidos de la Guerra de Secesión, porque fue elevado a una posición militar de alto rango sin experiencia real previa debido a su amistad con el presidente confederado Jefferson Davis. Luchó como comandante en muchas de las grandes batallas del teatro de operaciones occidental. Aunque su fama por sus desacuerdos con Braxton Bragg (General de Tennesse) es mucho mayor que la de sus escasos éxitos militares. Más tarde, bajo el mando del general Joseph E. Johnston, murió en combate en 1864 durante la Campaña de Atlanta. Leonidas Polk (10 avril 1806 – 14 juin 1864) est un militaire américain, général de l'armée confédérée durant la guerre de Sécession.

Принадлежал к епископальной церкви и служил епископом в диоцезе Луизиана, из-за чего известен так же как «The Fighting Bishop» (Сражающийся епископ). Полк был одной из самый противоречивых фигур той войны. Не имея военного опыта, он достиг высоких воинских званий только благодаря своей дружбе с президентом Дэвисом. Он командовал корпусом во многих сражениях Западного Театра, но ничего выдающегося не совершил, хотя солдаты его любили, и он был своего рода символом Теннессийской армии. Полк погиб в сражении при Мариетте, во время битвы за Атланту. レオニダス・ポーク(英: Leonidas Polk、1806年4月10日-1864年6月14日)は、南北戦争の時の南軍の将軍である。かってはテネシー州モーリー郡の農園主であり、ジェームズ・ポーク大統領とはふた従兄弟だった。米国聖公会ルイジアナ教区の主教を務めてもおり、そのことで「戦う主教」とも呼ばれた。ポークはアトランタ方面作戦のときの1864年に戦死した。 Lieutenant-General Leonidas Polk (April 10, 1806 – June 14, 1864) was a bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Louisiana and founder of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the Confederate States of America, which separated from the Episcopal Church of the United States of America.

His official portrait at the University of the South depicts him dressed as a bishop with his army uniform hanging nearby. He is often erroneously referred to as "Leonidas K. Polk," but he had no middle name and never signed any documents as such. Polk was one of the more notable, yet controversial, political generals of the war. Recognizing his indispensable familiarity with the Mississippi Valley, Confederate president Jefferson Davis commissioned his elevation to a high military position regardless of his lack of prior combat experience. He commanded troops in the Battle of Shiloh, the Battle of Perryville, the Battle of Stones River, the Tullahoma Campaign, the Battle of Chickamauga, the Chattanooga Campaign, and the Atlanta Campaign. He is remembered for his bitter disagreements with his immediate superior, the likewise-controversial General Braxton Bragg of the Army of Tennessee, and for his general lack of success in combat. While serving under the command of General Joseph E. Johnston, he was killed in action in 1864 during the Atlanta Campaign. Leonidas Polk (ur. 10 kwietnia 1806, zm. 14 czerwca 1864) – generał-porucznik CS Army w czasie wojny secesyjnej, posiadacz ziemski w hrabstwie Maury w stanie Tennessee i daleki krewny prezydenta Jamesa Polka. Z powodu posiadanej godności biskupa episkopalnego żołnierze nadali mu przezwisko The Fighting Bishop (Walczący Biskup). Polk był jedną z najbardziej kontrowersyjnych postaci wojny secesyjnej. Został wyniesiony na wysoki stopień generalski mimo braku jakiegokolwiek doświadczenia bojowego (wcześniej był duchownym), a jedynie dlatego, że był kolegą z West Point i przyjacielem prezydenta Skonfederowanych Stanów Ameryki, Jeffersona Davisa. Uczestniczył w wielu kluczowych bitwach zachodniego teatru działań, ale zapamiętany został raczej z ciągłych kłótni ze swym przełożonym, dowódcą Armii Tennessee generałem Braxtonem Braggiem, niż z sukcesów bitewnych. Poległ w 1864 roku podczas kampanii atlanckiej.
