Giacomo Orsini (Шаблон:Circa – 15 August 1379), also spelled Jacopo Orsini (Шаблон:Lang-la), was a Roman prelate, the cardinal deacon of San Giorgio in Velabro from 1371 until his death shortly after the start of the Western Schism.

Early life and education

A member of the Orsini family, Giacomo was born around 1350.[1] His mother was Isabella Savelli. His father, Orso Orsini, count of Tagliacozzo and lord of Vicovaro, died in 1360. His brother Rinaldo became count of Tagliacozzo. His uncle, Cardinal Rinaldo Orsini, played a role in Giacomo's upbringing. Pope Urban V gave the young Orsini a canonry in the diocese of Padua in November 1362 and in 1367 appointed him a protonotary apostolic.Шаблон:Sfn

Orsini studied canon law at the University of Bologna. He was examined by Giovanni da Legnano and Uguccione da Thiene on 24 May 1371. On 30 May, Pope Gregory XI named him cardinal deacon of San Giorgio in Velabro. The new cardinal received his doctorate in a public ceremony on 2 June.Шаблон:Sfn

Cardinal at Avignon

Over the years, Orsini acquired numerous ecclesiastical benefices throughout Europe, including canonries in Elne (1371), Kraków (1371), Utrecht (1374) and York (1374); the archpriestship of Chiusi (1372); the archdeaconries of Leicester (1372), Ely (1373) and Durham (1374); and the deanery of Salisbury (1374). In September 1374, he was named protector of the hospital of Santo Spirito in Sassia in Rome. By September 1376, he was also collector of tithes for England and Sardinia.Шаблон:Sfn

Orsini was a cardinal during the last years of the Avignon Papacy. In a consistory on 7 February 1375, he defended the decision of Gregory XI to return to Rome against the arguments of Duke Louis I of Anjou. In July 1376, he was sent ahead to Rome to notify the city of the planned return.Шаблон:Sfn He then accompanied Gregory XI from Marseille to Rome in 1376–1377, having made out his will on 20 September 1376 in advance of the journey by sea.Шаблон:Sfn

Conclave of 1378 and the beginning of the Great Schism

On the death of Gregory XI, Orsini was a papal candidate, but he was strongly opposed by Cardinal Jean de Cros on account of his youth.Шаблон:Sfn Witnesses later claimed that a crowd of onlookers, spurred by members of the Orsini family, was chanting his name at the conclave of 1378.Шаблон:Sfn In the end, he was the only cardinal to refuse to vote for Urban VI, but he performed the role of cardinal protodeacon during the papal coronation on 18 April.Шаблон:Sfn He placed the tiara on Urban's head because the bishop of Ostia, Шаблон:Ill, had recently died.Шаблон:Sfn

Orsini, with Шаблон:Ill, Шаблон:Ill and Шаблон:Ill, was part of an Italian faction among the cardinals. When the non-Italian cardinals broke with Urban, claiming they had elected him under pressure from a Roman mob, Urban sent the Italians to negotiate a reconciliation. On 26 July, the Italian cardinals drew up a report (casus) on the election, which was revised by Orsini shortly afterwards. Orsini's draft became the basis for the schismatic cardinals' manifesto of 2 August. During these early negotiations, the Italian cardinals stayed at Vicovaro, aloof from both parties.Шаблон:Sfn

Orsini sought legal advice concerning the validity of Urban's election from Giovanni da Legnano, Baldo degli Ubaldi and Шаблон:Ill, to whom he forwarded his casus.Шаблон:Sfn The responses of all three strongly defended Urban VI.Шаблон:Sfn Orsini and the other Italians withdrew to Naples, where they were received by Queen Joan I on 30 July.Шаблон:Sfn Although present, they did not take part in the counter-conclave at Fondi that elected Antipope Clement VII on 20 September.Шаблон:Sfn After this, he withdrew with Cardinals Corsini and Borsano to Tagliacozzo.Шаблон:Sfn

Urban VI called Orsini an idiot (sotus).Шаблон:Sfn Catherine of Siena also had a low opinion of Orsini. In a letter, she castigates the Italian cardinals in 1378.Шаблон:Sfn Already in 1377, when seeking Orsini's intervention to bring an end to the War of the Eight Saints,Шаблон:Sfn she had labelled him a "stinking flower" in the church's garden.Шаблон:Sfn In the estimation of a modern Jesuit researcher, Marc Dykmans, however, Orsini was "one of the very few who did not lie" in the depositions taken down in 1378 for the monarchs of Spain and recorded in the Libri de Schismate.[2]

Orsini advocated a general council to resolve the burgeoning schism. He died in Tagliacozzo on 15 August 1379 of an ailment of the liver.Шаблон:Sfn
