Popes
Pre Council of Trent
Alexander VI (1492-1503) - had at least 7 illegitimate children and gave them handsome endowments at the church's expense
When low on finances, he would take money from the rich after murdering or jailing them with false charges
Julius II (1503-13) - 'Warrior Pope'. Reforming the Catholic Church was last thing on his mind, devoting his energy to political & military matters
more of a soldier than churchman; focused on gaining territory for the Papacy at the expense of France, Spain and the HRE
Leo X (1513-21) - financially unstable, had to borrow huge sums from creditors. Practices nepotism and sold indulgences to build St Peter's
Paul III (1534-49) - nepotism & financial corruption. Commissioned report on clerical abuses in 1536: need to reform moral & spiritual conditions
Post Council of Trent
Paul IV (1555-59) - Strict, introduces first Index in 1559. Encouraged Inquisition to arrest and sentence heretics
Also excluded absentee bishops from Rome and sentencing of 100+ monks and friars to prison and to the galleys
Pius IV (1559-65) - Revised Index in 1564 and a catechism was commissioned and completed after his death.
Fathered 3 illegitimate children, appointed underage cardinals, and dispensed papal patronage lavishly
Pius V (1566-72) - epitomised Catholic Reformation. Visited poor, attended lepers, spent weeks in meditation.
Although he encouraged rulers to attack heresy, little was achieved apart from the Catholic triumph over the Turks at Lepanto
In keeping with the Tridentine Decrees (from CoT), enforced clerical residence among Italian bishops
Gregory XIII (1572-85) - 'Super Pope'. Focused energy on reforming Rome for its jubilee. Ordered destruction of decayed buildings, removed prostitutes
Keen to promote Jesuit missions to Protestant countries. Interested in education and refounded Jesuit college in Rome, all bishops should be qualified
