Jean, Cardinal of Lorraine

Jean de Lorraine (9 April 1498 – c. 18 May 1550[1]) was the third son[2] of the ruling Duke of Lorraine, and a French cardinal, who was (at one time or another) archbishop of Reims (1532–1538), Lyon (1537–1539), and Narbonne (1524–1550),[3] bishop of Metz, and Administrator of the dioceses of Toul, Verdun, Thérouanne, Luçon, Albi, Valence, Nantes and Agen (1538–1550).[4] He was a personal friend, companion, and advisor of King Francis I of France. Jean de Lorraine was the richest prelate in the reign of Francis I, as well as the most flagrant pluralist.[5] He is one of several cardinals known as the Cardinal de Lorraine.

Biography edit

Born in Bar-le-Duc, Jean was the sixth child of twelve, of René II, Duke of Lorraine and his wife Philippa of Guelders, sister of Charles, Duke of Guelders. He was a younger brother of Antoine, Duke of Lorraine and Claude, Duke of Guise.[6] His younger brother, François, Comte de Lambesc, died in the Battle of Pavia in 1525. In 1520 his mother retired to the Convent of S. Claire du Pont-à-Mousson, where she became a professed nun.[7]

Bishop of Metz edit

In 1500 baby Jean succeeded Cardinal Raymond Peraudi as Coadjutor of his uncle Henri de Vaudemont-Lorraine, Bishop of Metz. The Chapter of the Cathedral gave its consent, on 3 November 1500, and Pope Alexander VI gave his consent in 1501. The Cardinal was compensated for his trouble with the monastery of S. Mansu in Toul. The purpose of such a strange arrangement was the desire of Duke René to keep the bishopric of Metz in family hands.[8] Bishop Henri formally resigned the See of Metz on 16 July 1505 in favor of his nephew Jean, but, due to Jean's extreme youth, Henri continued as Administrator until his own death on 20 October 1505. From that point the Cathedral Chapter, whose Dean was the Bishop of Toul, assumed responsibility for the administration of the diocese, until Jean de Lorraine became twenty in 1518, with Jean receiving one-third of the episcopal revenues. Spiritual functions were in the hands of the Bishop of Nicopolis, Conrad de Heyden, O.Cist., suffragan of Metz.[9]

Despite his youth, on 19 October 1517, following the death of Bishop Hugh de Hazards, Jean de Lorraine was elected Bishop of Toul by the Chapter of the cathedral. He resigned the bishopric in 1524.[10]

It is conjectured that Jean was introduced to the French Court and met King Francis for the first time at the wedding of his brother Antoine to Renée de Bourbon on 26 June 1515.[11]

Cardinal edit

 
Cardinal Thomas Wolsey

On 28 May 1518 Jean de Lorraine, Bishop of Metz, aged twenty, was created a Cardinal-Deacon by Pope Leo X in his seventh Consistory for the creation of cardinals. Jean was the only cardinal created on that occasion. Leo, who had been made a cardinal himself at the age of thirteen, could hardly refuse the King of France on the grounds of youth. On 7 January 1519 he was assigned the Deaconry of S. Onofrio in Trastevere, and his red hat was sent to him in France. He visited Rome in April 1521, at which time he was admitted to Consistory.[12] He had already returned home when Leo X died on 1 December 1521, and thus he did not attend the Conclave of 27 December 1521 − 9 January 1522, which elected Cardinal Adrian Florenszoon Dedel, who took the throne name Pope Adrian VI.[13]

In 1520 Jean de Lorraine was present at the Field of the Cloth of Gold, along with Cardinals Adrien Gouffier de Boissy, François Louis de Bourbon, and Amanieu d'Albret; but he played no political role.[14] And indeed his non-political position continued to be the case throughout the 1520s.[15]

Cardinal Jean de Lorraine was appointed Bishop of Terouanne (Morinensis) on 29 October 1521, taking possession of his church on 7 January 1522.[16] He held the See until 1535. From 1522 his career path is that of an individual who enjoys without interruption the favor of the King, all the way to the King's death in 1547. He enjoyed the status of favorite, along with the realities of familiar and counsellor.[17]

Archbishop of Narbonne edit

On 7 January 1524 Cardinal Jean was named Archbishop of Narbonne, in succession to Giulio de' Medici who had been elected Pope Clement VII. He held the church until his death.[18]

In August 1527 the Cardinal de Lorraine was appointed by King Francis to meet and greet Cardinal Thomas Wolsey, who had come to France to negotiate with King Francis, and to escort him to the French Court. He was not yet a royal advisor or a member of the Royal Council, but was being tested and groomed. He was, after all, only twenty-nine years old. Negotiations were conducted with Wolsey by royal commissioners, leading to the Treaty of Amiens, ratified by the King on 18 August.

The treaty addressed the joint English and French reaction to the Sack of Rome (1527) in May 1527 and the imprisonment of Pope Clement VII in the Castel S. Angelo. But the Cardinal de Lorraine had no part in that business. The principal negotiator was the Chancellor, Antoine du Prat. He was, however, one of the four French cardinals who were present at Compiègne on 16 September and wrote, under Wolsey's leadership as Papal Legate, to the Pope, informing him that they were praying for his release from captivity and planned, if the Emperor should not accommodate them, to refuse any papal orders issued under duress. He also witnessed the investing of the Chancellor, Antoine du Prat, with the symbols of the cardinalate which had been granted him by the Pope at the request of King Francis. His growing importance is reflected in a list of precedence of 1528, in which he and the King of Navarre follow immediately after the King.[19]

Abbeys: Cluny, Fécamp, Gorze edit

 
Francis I of France

In 1528 he was named Abbot Commendatory of the Abbey of Cluny by King Francis I, a benefice he held until his death in 1550. The monks of Cluny had tried to reassert their old rights of election, and had chosen Jacques le Roy, Abbot of Saint-Florent, to be the new abbot of Cluny, but the King and the Pope intervened, in accordance with the Concordat of Bologna of 1516, and Le Roy was made Archbishop of Bourges instead.[20]

On 1 August 1530, Pope Clement VII granted the Cardinal of Lorraine an indult allowing him to hold and accumulate the benefices in his diocese of Narbonne and the benefices of his abbeys.[21]

On 26 March 1531, King Francis signed an order to his treasurer to pay his lost wagers to the Sieur de Villiers, the result of a tennis match with the Cardinal de Lorraine and others on March 1.[22]

In 1532, Jean de Lorraine was named Abbot Commendatory of the royal abbey of Fécamp by the patronage of King Francis I.[23] He held the Abbey during his lifetime. In 1534 Pope Paul III named Cardinal de Lorraine his Apostolic Legate in the dioceses of Metz, Toul and Verdun.[24]

Part of his ecclesiastical preferment he gave up in favour of his nephews, as part of the strategy of establishing the family of Lorraine permanently in various benefices.

Pope Clement VII died on 25 September 1534, having lived 56 years. The Conclave of 1534 opened on 10 October 1534, and Cardinal de Lorraine was present as the leader of the French faction, which numbered between ten and twelve members. Their candidate was Cardinal François de Tournon, who had negotiated the marriage of Henri, King Francis' second son, and Catherine de' Medici. Cardinal Alessandro Farnese was supported by Cardinal Ippolito d'Este and his fellow Florentine cardinals who had been created by Clement VII. The Italians favored Agostino Trivulzio, the Protector of France before the Holy See and the holder of several French episcopal benefices, whose uncles were Marshals of France, but he realized that he could not marshal sufficient votes to be elected. He therefore threw his support behind the oldest of the cardinals, Alessandro Farnese, hoping that Farnese's reign would be a short one and that he would be in a better position at the next conclave. Farnese was elected by acclamation on 11 October, the first day of voting, and was formally elected by ballot the next morning. He chose the name Paul III, and reigned for fifteen years. Trivulzio died the year before Paul did.[25]

Royal Councillor edit

He became a regular member of the royal council in 1530.[26] In 1536 he was entrusted with an embassy to Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor.[27] He met the Emperor, who was travelling north to Genoa, at Siena on 24 April 1536. He spent three days with the Emperor explaining the concessions which Francis I was prepared to make, but Charles was prepared for war, and rejected the French overtures. After a quick trip to Rome to inform the Pope of the situation and to discover what the Pope's intentions were, Jean de Lorraine headed back north toward Bologna to try one last time to argue peace to the Emperor. The Pope, who was trying to maintain neutrality, sent legates to both sovereigns on 29 April to argue for peace, but it was without effect.[28] The invasion of southern France by the Emperor was inevitable.

There survives a document showing that on 12 July 1536 the Cardinal de Lorraine was possessed of the dioceses of Metz, Toul and Verdun, of the Abbey of Gorze in southern Lorraine (1533–1542),[29] and of the castellanies of Hattonchâtel, Dombasle-en-Argonne, Thilly, Mangiennes, Fresnes-en-Woevre, Dieudouard, and Sampigny.[30] In 1537 he was granted the Abbey of Saint-Médard in Soissons, which he held for two years.[31]

When the Dauphin Francis died at Château Tournon-sur-Rhône on 10 August 1536, the rest of the courtiers tried to delay presenting the disastrous news by telling the King that the Dauphin was increasingly ill. When Francis finally realized he was being lied to, it was the Cardinal de Lorraine who was left alone with the King by the courtiers and he had to confirm the news of the death of the King's son. The King retired to indulge his grief without witnesses, and left it to Cardinal de Lorraine to make the appropriate arrangements.[32]

 
Constable Anne de Montmorency

In April–May 1537, Jean de Lorraine was sent as Ambassador to the Emperor and granted powers to negotiate with him. He returned to Court on 17 May.[33] In accordance with the Concordat of Bologna of 1516, King Francis nominated Jean de Lorraine to the diocese of Lyon in 1537. He took possession of the diocese by procurator on 13 August 1537, and was immediately sent along with the Constable, Anne de Montmorency, on a diplomatic mission to the Emperor to put the final touches on a treaty of peace between France and the Empire. They returned to Narbonne on 13 January 1538, and Montmorency returned to report to the King at the end of January. In May and June the pair were at Nice, engaged in additional negotiations with the Emperor.[34] On his return he resigned the administration of the diocese of Lyon in favor of Cardinal Ippolito d'Este, who was appointed by King Francis and whose bulls were dated 29 October 1539. The Cardinal de Lorraine had been Administrator for only two years and two months.[35]

The Cardinal de Lorraine travelled with King Francis to Aigues-Mortes for his meeting with the Emperor Charles, which took place between 14 and 17 July 1538, and was present at at least one private meeting.[36]

On 14 August 1540 the Cardinal de Lorraine renounced all his interests in the succession to the Duchy of Lorraine in favor of his brother, for a consideration of 50,000 francs.[37]

On 22 March 1542, King Francis signed letters ratifying the nomination of the Cardinal de Lorraine as Abbot Commendatory of the Abbey of Blanche-Couronne in Brittany (1542–1548).[38]

A document of 11 April 1544 indicates that the Cardinal was possessed of the Abbeys of Fécamp, Saint-Ouen, Marmoutier, and the Priory of La-Charité, from which the King had ordered extraordinary cutting of old-stand trees in their forests for the purpose of building galleys. The Cardinal was instructed to deliver the timber to Rouen at his expense.[39]

Patronage edit

 
Jean de Lorraine, by Cellini

The Cardinal was also an open-handed patron of art and learning, as the protector and friend of the humanist scholar Erasmus,[40] the poet and translator Clément Marot, and the satirist Rabelais. It has been argued that the character of Panurge in Gargantua and Pantagruel is based on the Cardinal de Lorraine, and his residence at the Hôtel de Cluny.[41]

In 1527, upon the recommendation and urging of Erasmus, the Cardinal de Lorraine took on Claude Chansonette (Cantiuncula) as his Chancellor.[42]

In 1537 Benvenuto Cellini, the Florentine jeweler, sculptor, and medallist, was in Paris, and was commissioned to create several pieces for King Francis I. On one occasion, the King invited Cellini to an after-dinner gathering, at which he found himself in the company of Mme. d'Estampes, the Cardinal de Lorraine, and the King of Navarre and his wife, Marguerite, the sister of King Francis, the Dauphin and the Dauphine.[43] Cellini produced a medal of the Cardinal de Lorraine. The reverse shows the allegorical figure Truth, holding a mirror and a compass, with the legend SIC•ITUR•AD•ASTRA ('This is the way to the stars').[44]

In 1549 at Piacenza (not the Plaisance in the south of France[45]) he met the Franciscan André Thevet, one of the future chaplains of Queen Catherine de' Medici, and encouraged him (par l'autorité et faveur duquel, j'ay eu l'opportunité de faire le voyage de Ierusalem) to make his journey to the Holy Land and the Levant, which began his career as a cosmographer.[46]

Conclave of 1549–1550 edit

Cardinal Jean de Lorraine participated in the Conclave following the death of Pope Paul III, which began on 29 November 1549. The Cardinal de Guise, Jean de Lorraine's nephew, had been instructed (by the King, it was said) to support the Cardinal de Lorraine, then the Cardinal de Tournon, and any other French cardinals; failing those, he was to work for Salviati, Ridolfi or de Cupis. Ridolfi took himself out of the contest when he died during the Conclave.[47] It is recorded that, on the fifteenth Scrutiny on 18 December, even before Guise's arrival, Lorraine had received five votes. Jean de Lorraine, though, did not arrive in the Conclave until 29 December, by which time alliances and antipathies had solidified. In the evening of 7/8 February 1550, Cardinal Giovanni Maria Ciocchi del Monte, aged sixty-three, was elected and chose the throne name Julius III.[48] Julius III, was crowned on 22 February 1550, the Feast of St. Peter's Chair.

The Cardinal de Lorraine died from a stroke in Neuvy-sur-Loire[49] on 18 May 1550, on his way back to France from Italy. He was buried in Nancy in the Church of Saint-François-des-Cordeliers.[50] In his Last Will and Testament, he left 30,000 livres to the poor orphans of the Three Bishoprics, Metz, Toul, and Verdun.[51]

Antoine Duke of Lorraine and Claude Duke of Guise 6 His younger brother Francois Comte de Lambesc died in the Battle of Pavia in 1525 In 1520 his mother retired to the Convent of S Claire du Pont a Mousson where she became a professed nun 7 Bishop of Metz edit In 1500 baby Jean succeeded Cardinal Raymond Peraudi as Coadjutor of his uncle Henri de Vaudemont Lorraine Bishop of Metz The Chapter of the Cathedral gave its consent on 3 November 1500 and Pope Alexander VI gave his consent in 1501 The Cardinal was compensated for his trouble with the monastery of S Mansu in Toul The purpose of such a strange arrangement was the desire of Duke Rene to keep the bishopric of Metz in family hands 8 Bishop Henri formally resigned the See of Metz on 16 July 1505 in favor of his nephew Jean but due to Jean s extreme youth Henri continued as Administrator until his own death on 20 October 1505 From that point the Cathedral Chapter whose Dean was the Bishop of Toul assumed responsibility for the administration of the diocese until Jean de Lorraine became twenty in 1518 with Jean receiving one third of the episcopal revenues Spiritual functions were in the hands of the Bishop of Nicopolis Conrad de Heyden O Cist suffragan of Metz 9 Despite his youth on 19 October 1517 following the death of Bishop Hugh de Hazards Jean de Lorraine was elected Bishop of Toul by the Chapter of the cathedral He resigned the bishopric in 1524 10 It is conjectured that Jean was introduced to the French Court and met King Francis for the first time at the wedding of his brother Antoine to Renee de Bourbon on 26 June 1515 11 Cardinal edit nbsp Cardinal Thomas WolseyOn 28 May 1518 Jean de Lorraine Bishop of Metz aged twenty was created a Cardinal Deacon by Pope Leo X in his seventh Consistory for the creation of cardinals Jean was the only cardinal created on that occasion Leo who had been made a cardinal himself at the age of thirteen could hardly refuse the King of France on the grounds of youth On 7 January 1519 he was assigned the Deaconry of S Onofrio in Trastevere and his red hat was sent to him in France He visited Rome in April 1521 at which time he was admitted to Consistory 12 He had already returned home when Leo X died on 1 December 1521 and thus he did not attend the Conclave of 27 December 1521 9 January 1522 which elected Cardinal Adrian Florenszoon Dedel who took the throne name Pope Adrian VI 13 In 1520 Jean de Lorraine was present at the Field of the Cloth of Gold along with Cardinals Adrien Gouffier de Boissy Francois Louis de Bourbon and Amanieu d Albret but he played no political role 14 And indeed his non political position continued to be the case throughout the 1520s 15 Cardinal Jean de Lorraine was appointed Bishop of Terouanne Morinensis on 29 October 1521 taking possession of his church on 7 January 1522 16 He held the See until 1535 From 1522 his career path is that of an individual who enjoys without interruption the favor of the King all the way to the King s death in 1547 He enjoyed the status of favorite along with the realities of familiar and counsellor 17 Archbishop of Narbonne edit On 7 January 1524 Cardinal Jean was named Archbishop of Narbonne in succession to Giulio de Medici who had been elected Pope Clement VII He held the church until his death 18 In August 1527 the Cardinal de Lorraine was appointed by King Francis to meet and greet Cardinal Thomas Wolsey who had come to France to negotiate with King Francis and to escort him to the French Court He was not yet a royal advisor or a member of the Royal Council but was being tested and groomed He was after all only twenty nine years old Negotiations were conducted with Wolsey by royal commissioners leading to the Treaty of Amiens ratified by the King on 18 August The treaty addressed the joint English and French reaction to the Sack of Rome 1527 in May 1527 and the imprisonment of Pope Clement VII in the Castel S Angelo But the Cardinal de Lorraine had no part in that business The principal negotiator was the Chancellor Antoine du Prat He was however one of the four French cardinals who were present at Compiegne on 16 September and wrote under Wolsey s leadership as Papal Legate to the Pope informing him that they were praying for his release from captivity and planned if the Emperor should not accommodate them to refuse any papal orders issued under duress He also witnessed the investing of the Chancellor Antoine du Prat with the symbols of the cardinalate which had been granted him by the Pope at the request of King Francis His growing importance is reflected in a list of precedence of 1528 in which he and the King of Navarre follow immediately after the King 19 Abbeys Cluny Fecamp Gorze edit nbsp Francis I of FranceIn 1528 he was named Abbot Commendatory of the Abbey of Cluny by King Francis I a benefice he held until his death in 1550 The monks of Cluny had tried to reassert their old rights of election and had chosen Jacques le Roy Abbot of Saint Florent to be the new abbot of Cluny but the King and the Pope intervened in accordance with the Concordat of Bologna of 1516 and Le Roy was made Archbishop of Bourges instead 20 On 1 August 1530 Pope Clement VII granted the Cardinal of Lorraine an indult allowing him to hold and accumulate the benefices in his diocese of Narbonne and the benefices of his abbeys 21 On 26 March 1531 King Francis signed an order to his treasurer to pay his lost wagers to the Sieur de Villiers the result of a tennis match with the Cardinal de Lorraine and others on March 1 22 In 1532 Jean de Lorraine was named Abbot Commendatory of the royal abbey of Fecamp by the patronage of King Francis I 23 He held the Abbey during his lifetime In 1534 Pope Paul III named Cardinal de Lorraine his Apostolic Legate in the dioceses of Metz Toul and Verdun 24 Part of his ecclesiastical preferment he gave up in favour of his nephews as part of the strategy of establishing the family of Lorraine permanently in various benefices Pope Clement VII died on 25 September 1534 having lived 56 years The Conclave of 1534 opened on 10 October 1534 and Cardinal de Lorraine was present as the leader of the French faction which numbered between ten and twelve members Their candidate was Cardinal Francois de Tournon who had negotiated the marriage of Henri King Francis second son and Catherine de Medici Cardinal Alessandro Farnese was supported by Cardinal Ippolito d Este and his fellow Florentine cardinals who had been created by Clement VII The Italians favored Agostino Trivulzio the Protector of France before the Holy See and the holder of several French episcopal benefices whose uncles were Marshals of France but he realized that he could not marshal sufficient votes to be elected He therefore threw his support behind the oldest of the cardinals Alessandro Farnese hoping that Farnese s reign would be a short one and that he would be in a better position at the next conclave Farnese was elected by acclamation on 11 October the first day of voting and was formally elected by ballot the next morning He chose the name Paul III and reigned for fifteen years Trivulzio died the year before Paul did 25 Royal Councillor edit He became a regular member of the royal council in 1530 26 In 1536 he was entrusted with an embassy to Charles V Holy Roman Emperor 27 He met the Emperor who was travelling north to Genoa at Siena on 24 April 1536 He spent three days with the Emperor explaining the concessions which Francis I was prepared to make but Charles was prepared for war and rejected the French overtures After a quick trip to Rome to inform the Pope of the situation and to discover what the Pope s intentions were Jean de Lorraine headed back north toward Bologna to try one last time to argue peace to the Emperor The Pope who was trying to maintain neutrality sent legates to both sovereigns on 29 April to argue for peace but it was without effect 28 The invasion of southern France by the Emperor was inevitable There survives a document showing that on 12 July 1536 the Cardinal de Lorraine was possessed of the dioceses of Metz Toul and Verdun of the Abbey of Gorze in southern Lorraine 1533 1542 29 and of the castellanies of Hattonchatel Dombasle en Argonne Thilly Mangiennes Fresnes en Woevre Dieudouard and Sampigny 30 In 1537 he was granted the Abbey of Saint Medard in Soissons which he held for two years 31 When the Dauphin Francis died at Chateau Tournon sur Rhone on 10 August 1536 the rest of the courtiers tried to delay presenting the disastrous news by telling the King that the Dauphin was increasingly ill When Francis finally realized he was being lied to it was the Cardinal de Lorraine who was left alone with the King by the courtiers and he had to confirm the news of the death of the King s son The King retired to indulge his grief without witnesses and left it to Cardinal de Lorraine to make the appropriate arrangements 32 nbsp Constable Anne de MontmorencyIn April May 1537 Jean de Lorraine was sent as Ambassador to the Emperor and granted powers to negotiate with him He returned to Court on 17 May 33 In accordance with the Concordat of Bologna of 1516 King Francis nominated Jean de Lorraine to the diocese of Lyon in 1537 He took possession of the diocese by procurator on 13 August 1537 and was immediately sent along with the Constable Anne de Montmorency on a diplomatic mission to the Emperor to put the final touches on a treaty of peace between France and the Empire They returned to Narbonne on 13 January 1538 and Montmorency returned to report to the King at the end of January In May and June the pair were at Nice engaged in additional negotiations with the Emperor 34 On his return he resigned the administration of the diocese of Lyon in favor of Cardinal Ippolito d Este who was appointed by King Francis and whose bulls were dated 29 October 1539 The Cardinal de Lorraine had been Administrator for only two years and two months 35 The Cardinal de Lorraine travelled with King Francis to Aigues Mortes for his meeting with the Emperor Charles which took place between 14 and 17 July 1538 and was present at at least one private meeting 36 On 14 August 1540 the Cardinal de Lorraine renounced all his interests in the succession to the Duchy of Lorraine in favor of his brother for a consideration of 50 000 francs 37 On 22 March 1542 King Francis signed letters ratifying the nomination of the Cardinal de Lorraine as Abbot Commendatory of the Abbey of Blanche Couronne in Brittany 1542 1548 38 A document of 11 April 1544 indicates that the Cardinal was possessed of the Abbeys of Fecamp Saint Ouen Marmoutier and the Priory of La Charite from which the King had ordered extraordinary cutting of old stand trees in their forests for the purpose of building galleys The Cardinal was instructed to deliver the timber to Rouen at his expense 39 Patronage edit nbsp Jean de Lorraine by CelliniThe Cardinal was also an open handed patron of art and learning as the protector and friend of the humanist scholar Erasmus 40 the poet and translator Clement Marot and the satirist Rabelais It has been argued that the character of Panurge in Gargantua and Pantagruel is based on the Cardinal de Lorraine and his residence at the Hotel de Cluny 41 In 1527 upon the recommendation and urging of Erasmus the Cardinal de Lorraine took on Claude Chansonette Cantiuncula as his Chancellor 42 In 1537 Benvenuto Cellini the Florentine jeweler sculptor and medallist was in Paris and was commissioned to create several pieces for King Francis I On one occasion the King invited Cellini to an after dinner gathering at which he found himself in the company of Mme d Estampes the Cardinal de Lorraine and the King of Navarre and his wife Marguerite the sister of King Francis the Dauphin and the Dauphine 43 Cellini produced a medal of the Cardinal de Lorraine The reverse shows the allegorical figure Truth holding a mirror and a compass with the legend SIC ITUR AD ASTRA This is the way to the stars 44 In 1549 at Piacenza not the Plaisance in the south of France 45 he met the Franciscan Andre Thevet one of the future chaplains of Queen Catherine de Medici and encouraged him par l autorite et faveur duquel j ay eu l opportunite de faire le voyage de Ierusalem to make his journey to the Holy Land and the Levant which began his career as a cosmographer 46 Conclave of 1549 1550 edit Cardinal Jean de Lorraine participated in the Conclave following the death of Pope Paul III which began on 29 November 1549 The Cardinal de Guise Jean de Lorraine s nephew had been instructed by the King it was said to support the Cardinal de Lorraine then the Cardinal de Tournon and any other French cardinals failing those he was to work for Salviati Ridolfi or de Cupis Ridolfi took himself out of the contest when he died during the Conclave 47 It is recorded that on the fifteenth Scrutiny on 18 December even before Guise s arrival Lorraine had received five votes Jean de Lorraine though did not arrive in the Conclave until 29 December by which time alliances and antipathies had solidified In the evening of 7 8 February 1550 Cardinal Giovanni Maria Ciocchi del Monte aged sixty three was elected and chose the throne name Julius III 48 Julius III was crowned on 22 February 1550 the Feast of St Peter s Chair The Cardinal de Lorraine died from a stroke in Neuvy sur Loire 49 on 18 May 1550 on his way back to France from Italy He was buried in Nancy in the
