Home > Pope Innocent VI

In 1342 he was raised to the dignity of cardinal. On the death of Clement VI, after the cardinals had each bound himself by a solemn agreement as to a particular line of policy should he be elected, Aubert was chosen ( December 18, 1352); one of the first acts of his pontificate was to declare the paction to have been illegal and null.

His subsequent policy compares favourably with that of the other Avignon popes. He brought about many needed reforms in the administration of church affairs, and by his legate, Cardinal Albornoz, who was accompanied by Rienzi, he sought to restore order in Rome, where, in 1355Events January 7 Portuguese king Afonso IV sends three men to kill Ines de Castro, beloved of his son prince Pedro Pedro revolts and incites a civil war Scots defeat English at Nesbit Births 7 January Thomas of Woodstock (son of King Edward III of England, Charles IVThe Holy Roman Emperor Charles IV ( german: Karl IV. of the House of Luxembourg ( May 14, 1316 29 November 1378) was elected rival king of the Romans in 1346 to emperor Louis IV, succeeded his father John of Luxembourg as king of Bohemia in 1346, and was was with his permission crowned, after previously having come under an oath that he would quit the city on the day of the ceremony.

During this pontificate also John Palaeologus offered to submit the Greek church to the Roman see on condition of assistance being rendered him against John Cantacuzenus. The resources at the disposal of the pope, however, were all required for exigencies nearer home, and the offer was declined.
