Инокентий XII Папа Инокентий XII (13 март 1615 – 27 септември 1700), (рождено име Антонио Пинятели) е римски папа от 1691 до 1700 г. Биография[редактиране | edit source] Роден е в Спинацола (понастоящем Апулия) в една от най-аристократичните фамилии и получава образование в йезуитски колеж в Рим. На 20 години постъпва в двора на папа Урбан VIII (1623–1644); при следващите папи е апостолически нунций във Флоренция, Виена и Полша; служи като инквизитор в Малта. При папа Инокентий XI (1676—1689) става кардинал през 1681 година, а също и архиепископ на Неапол. След като папският конклав, свикан след смъртта на Александър VIII, продължава пет месеца, той се оказва компромисен кандидат измежду кардиналите на Франция и на Свещената Римска империя. Веднага след избирането си на 12 юли 1691 г. Инокентий XII се обявява против непотизма[1], който от дълго време е един от най-сериозните проблеми в папството. През 1692 г. Инокентий XII издава булата Romanum decet Pontificem и забранява честата практика по онова време папата да прави свои близки кардинали или да ги облагодетелстват с имоти, служби и парични средства. Освен това въвежда правило, че само един-единствен роднина на папата, и то „при условие че е подходящ като цяло“ би могъл да бъде издигнат до кардинал. В същото време Инокентий XII преразглежда симоническите практики и във връзка с това въвежда по-скромен и икономичен начин на живот в папския двор. Известно е твърдението му, че „бедните са неговите племенници“. Инокентий XII въвежда редица реформи в църквата. Неговият понтификат се различава от този на мнозина негови предшественици по изявения уклон към Франция, вместо към Германия. Инокентий XII се явява като един от разказвачите в дългата поема „Пръстенът и книгата“ (The Ring and the Book) на английския поет Робърт Браунинг, за основа на която е послужила истинската история за намесата на папата в исторически процес за убийство в Рим по време на неговото управление. Смятаният за благочестив, самоотвержен и великодушен папа Инокентий XII умира на 27 септември 1700 година, а на негово място идва папа Климент XI (1700–1721).

Pope Innocent XII Pope Innocent XII (Latin: Innocentius XII; 13 March 1615 – 27 September 1700), born Antonio Pignatelli, was Pope from 12 July 1691 to his death in 1700. He took a hard stance against nepotism in the church, continuing the policies of Pope Innocent XI, who started the battle against nepotism. To that end, he issued a papal bull strictly forbidding it. Contents Biography[edit] Early life[edit] Antonio Pignatelli was born on 13 March 1615 in Spinazzola (now in Apulia) to one of the most aristocratic families of the Kingdom of Naples, which had included several Viceroys and ministers of the crown. He was the fourth of five children of Francesco Pignatelli and Porzia Carafa. His other siblings were Marzio, Ludovico, Fabrizio and Paola Maria. He was educated at the Collegio Romano in Rome where he earned a doctorate in both canon and civil law. At the age of 20 he became an official of the court of Pope Urban VIII. Pignatelli was the Referendary of the Apostolic Signatura and served as the Governor of Fano and Viterbo. Later he went to Malta where he served as an inquisitor from 1646 to 1649.[1] Shortly after this, he received his priestly ordination. Episcopate and cardinalate[edit] Pignatelli was made Titular Archbishop of Larissa in 1652 and received episcopal consecration in Rome. Pignatelli served as the Apostolic Nuncio to Poland from 1660 to 1668 and later in Austria from 1668 to 1671. He was transferred to Leece in 1671. Pope Innocent XI appointed him as the Cardinal-Priest of San Pancrazio in 1681 and then moved him to the see of Faenza in 1682. He was moved to his final post as Archbishop of Naples in 1686. Papacy[edit] Papal election[edit] Pope Alexander VIII died in 1691 and the College of Cardinals assembled to hold a conclave to select his successor. Factions loyal to the Kingdom of France, Kingdom of Spain and the broader Holy Roman Empire failed to agree on a consensus candidate. After five months, Cardinal Pignatelli emerged as a compromise candidate between the cardinals of France and those of the Holy Roman Empire.[1] Pignatelli took his new name in honour of Pope Innocent XI and was crowned on 15 July 1691 by the protodeacon, Cardinal Urbano Sacchetti. He took possession of the Basilica of Saint John Lateran on 13 April 1692. Actions[edit] Immediately after his election on 12 July 1691, Innocent XII declared his opposition to the nepotism which had afflicted the reigns of previous popes. The following year he issued the papal bull, Romanum decet Pontificem, banning the curial office of the Cardinal-Nephew and prohibiting popes from bestowing estates, offices, or revenues on any relative. Further, only one relative (and only "if otherwise suitable") was to be raised to the cardinalate. At the same time he sought to check the simony in the practices of the Apostolic Chamber and to that end introduced a simpler and more economical manner of life into his court. Innocent XII said that "the poor were his nephews" and compared his public beneficence to the nepotism of many predecessors. Innocent XII also introduced various reforms into the States of the Church including the Forum Innocentianum, designed to improve the administration of justice dispensed by the Church. In 1693 he compelled French bishops to retract the four propositions relating to the Gallican Liberties which had been formulated by the assembly of 1682. In 1699, he decided in favour of Jacques-Benigne Bossuet in that prelate's controversy with Fénelon about the Explication des Maximes des Saints sur la Vie Intérieure of the latter. Innocent XII's pontificate also differed greatly from his predecessors' because of his leanings towards France instead of Germany; the first in the 20 years following France's failure to have its candidate elected in 1644 and 1655. Other actions[edit] Innocent XII also created 30 cardinals in four consistories. He canonized Saint Zita of Lucca on 5 September 1696. Innocent XII beatified Augustin Kažotić on 17 July 1701 and approved the cultus of Angela of Foligno in 1693. He also beatified Osanna Andreasi on 24 November 1694, Mary de Cerevellon on 13 February 1692, Jane of Portugal on 31 December 1692, Humiliana de Cerchi on 24 July 1694, Helen Enselmini on 29 October 1695 and Delphine in 1694. Death[edit] Innocent XII died on 27 September 1700 and was succeeded by Pope Clement XI (1700–1721). His tomb at St. Peter's Basilica was sculpted by Filippo della Valle. Legacy[edit] Innocent XII appears as one of the narrators in Robert Browning's long poem "The Ring and the Book" (1869), based on the true story of the pope's intervention in a historical murder trial in Rome during his papacy.
