Cornelio Bentivoglio

Cornelio Bentivoglio (27 March 1668 – 30 December 1732 in Ferrara) was an Italian nobleman and cardinal.

Cornelio went to Rome at an early age and was appointed Archbishop of Carthage.

He locked horns with the Jansenists, led by Pasquier Quesnel in Paris, and was recalled after the death of Louis XIV of France in 1715.

He was then named Spanish Minister Plenipotentiary at Rome, a position which he held until his death.
