Ferdinand Like Christina Before Him Was A Patron Ally And Friend Of Galileo. Galileo Dedicated His Dialogue Concerning The Two Chief World Systems To Him. This Work Led To Galileo's Second Set Of Hearings Before The Inquisition. Ferdinand Attempted To Keep Rome's Concerns From Leading To A Full-Fledged Hearing And Kept Galileo In Florence Until December 1632 When The Roman Inquisitors Finally Threatened To Bring Galileo To Rome In Chains If He Would Not Come Voluntarily. In June 1633 The Roman Inquisition Convicted The Astronomer For "Vehement Suspicion Of Heresy" And Sentenced Him To Imprisonment For Life; After This Was Commuted To House Arrest The Devoutly Catholic Ferdinand Welcomed Galileo Back To Florence.

One Brother Was Giovanni Carafa Duke Of Palianoanother Antonio Carafa 1520-1588 Was Made Marchese Di Montebello. Without Making A Name For Himself He Had A Long And Dubious Career As A Mercenary Soldier In Italy And Germany. He Entered The Household Of Cardinal Pompeo Colonna At An Early Age As A Page And Was Enrolled In The Order Of St John Of Jerusalem Later That Of Pierluigi Farnese Duke Of Castro Later Duke Of Parma The Son Of Paul Iii. He Then Fought Under The Alfonso D'avalos Marchese Del Vasto In Lombardy And Piedmont And Under Ottavio Farnese Duke Of Parma In Flanders And Germany Fighting Protestants In The Name Of The Emperor. Here An Incident Occurred That Reinforced Perceptions Among Contemporaries For Greed Arrogance And A Violent Nature: His Possession Of A Captive Gentleman Worth A Considerable Ransom Was Challenged By A Spaniard Whose Right Was Upheld By His Compatriot The Duke Of Alba; And In The Aftermath Carlo Pursuing His Adversary To Provoke A Duel Was Incarcerated At Trento Until He Agreed Not To Pursue The Vendetta. He Was Subsequently Exiled From Naples In 1545 For Murder And Banditry And Having Withdrawn To Benevento Was Embroiled In Another AssassinationAnd Was Then Alleged To Have Perpetrated The Massacre Of Spanish Soldiers As They Recuperated In A Hospital In Corsica. Two Weeks After Giovanni Pietro Carafa Was Elected Pope As Paul Iv He Raised Carlo To The Cardinalate On 7 June 1555. His Tenure As Cardinal Nephew Was Not A Great Success And He And Paul Iv Effectively Brought The Papacy To A Humiliating Defeat Against The Spanish That Nearly Resulted In Another Sack Of Rome. Carlo's Government Proved Unpopular And He Developed A Reputation For Avarice Cruelty And Licentiousness As Well As For Homosexual Sodomy Paul Had Chastised Cardinal Ghisleri For Not Sharing His Suspicions On This Latter Point. In January 1559 Paul Finally Accepted The Accuracy Of The Accusations Made And Exiled Both His Nephews From Rome And Replaced Carlo As Cardinal Nephew With Carlo's Own Nephew Alfonso Carafa Cardinal Archbishop Of Naples. In June 1560 Paul's Successor Pope Pius Iv Arrested The Leading Members Of The Family - Carlo His Brother Duke Govanni And Their Nephew The Cardinal Archbishop Of Naples Seizing Their Papers And Levying A Range Of Charges Relating To Abuses Of Power. Carlo Was Charged With Murder Sodomy And The Promotion Of Protestantism. After A Nine-Month Trial He Was Condemned Along With His Brother And Was Executed By Strangulation At Castel Sant' Angelo On The Night Of 6 March 1561.

Though Expected To Take Part In The Negotiations Which Led In 1648 To The Peace Of Westphalia Bishop Chigi And Other Catholic Delegates Declined To Deliberate With Persons Whom The Catholic Church Considered Heretics. Negotiations Therefore Took Place In Two Cities Osnabrück And Münster In Westphalia With Intermediaries Travelling Back And Forth Between The Protestant And The Catholic Delegates. Chigi Of Course Protested On Behalf Of The Papacy Against The Treaty Of Westphalia Once The Instruments Were Finally Completed.

Silvestro Valiero Or Valier Venice 28 March 1630 - Venice 7 July 1700 Was The 109Th Doge Of Venice Reigning From His Election On 25 February 1694 Until His Death Six Years Later. The Morean War Between The Republic Of Venice And The Ottoman Empire Which Had Been Ongoing Since 1684 Came To An End During Valiero's Reign As Doge In January 1699. He Was The Son Of Bertuccio Valiero Who Had Served As Doge From 1656 To 1658. Venice's War With The Ottoman Empire - The Morean War - Was Only One Part Of The Ottoman Empire's Struggle Against The Holy League Of 1684. On 11 September 1697 Ottoman Forces Were Defeated By Troops Of The Holy Roman Empire And The Kingdom Of Hungary At The Battle Of Zenta. This Decisive Battle Led To The Ottoman Empire's Determination To End The Great Turkish War And Peace Negotiations Began At Sremski Karlovci. These Negotiations Eventually Produced The Treaty Of Karlowitz Signed On 26 January 1699 And Ending The Great Turkish War Including The Morean War. Under The Treaty Venice Received The Morea Aegina Lefkada And Zakynthos Zante. Most Venetians Felt They Gained Far Too Little Territory To Compensate For The Huge Loss Of Life And Expense Of The Wars With The Ottoman Empire. The Republic Was Exhausted By The Long War And Facing Economic Distress But Little Changed For Valiero And He Continued Hosting Banquets Receptions And Parties At Which He Entertained Persons Of Rank.

All But One Of The Male Scions Of The Altieri Family Had Chosen The Ecclesiastical Career. On His Accession To The Papacy Clement X In Order To Save The Altieri Name From Extinction Adopted The Paoluzzi Family And Proposed That One Of The Paluzzi Should Marry Laura Caterina Altieri The Sole Heiress Of The Family. In Exchange For Adopting The Altieri Surname He Would Make One Of The Paoluzzi A Cardinal. Following The Wedding Which He Officiated He Appointed His Relative By Marriage Cardinal Paoluzzi-Altieri The Uncle Of Laura's New Husband To The Office Of Cardinal Nephew To Take On The Duties Which He Was Prevented From Doing By Age. The Main Activity Was To Invest The Church's Money And With Advancing Years Gradually Entrusted To Him The Management Of Affairs To Such An Extent That The Romans Said He Had Reserved To Himself Only The Episcopal Functions Of Benedicere Et Sanctificare Resigning In Favour Of The Cardinal The Administrative Duties Of Regere Et Gubernare.

1681réf. H0011a2-a6b-b7c-c7d-2315 pages. Small square octavo 7 ¾" x 6 ¼" bound in full leather. Second edition. Thomas Barlow 1607-1691 was an English academic and clergyman who became Provost of The Queen's College Oxford and Bishop of Lincoln. He was considered in his own times and by Edmund Venables writing in the Dictionary of National Biography to have been a trimmer a reputation mixed in with his academic and other writings on casuistry. His views were in fact Calvinist and strongly anti-Catholic and he was one of the last English bishops to identify the Pope as the Antichrist He worked in the 1660s for the 'comprehension' of nonconformists but supported the crackdown of the mid-1680s; and declared loyalty to James II of England on his accession having strongly supported the Exclusion Bill which would have denied the Catholic James the succession. Pope Pius V's response to Queen Elizabeth I of England assuming governance of the Church of England included support of the imprisoned Mary Queen of Scots and her supporters in their attempts to take over England "ex turpissima muliebris libidinis servitute". A brief English Catholic uprising the Rising of the North had just failed. Pius then issued a bull Regnans in Excelsis dated April 27 1570 that declared Elizabeth I a heretic and released her subjects from their allegiance to her. In response Elizabeth who had thus far tolerated Catholic worship in private now actively started persecuting them.
