Sequitur una in Blondelium exercitatio Neapoli 1780 cioè la confutazione del De Imperio. summarum porestatum circa sacra dell'arminiano olandese. La polemica contro le teorie del Grozio ha dato luogo a qualche equivoco e ha fatto talora annoverare il C. tra gli scrittori perfettamente ortodossi e addirittura curialisti. Ma il pensiero del teologo è ben compreso dai suoi contemporanei e valga per tutti l'affermazione di G. M. Galanti che a sostegno della tesi della separazione di poteri tra sacerdozio e imperio cita l'Antigrotius DBI Pasquale Villani Porcelli unknown
