A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

On Dec. 30, 1797, two days after the death of General Duphot, a catastrophe which promised to entail the most serious consequences on the government of the Pope-K ing (1), Pope Pius VI. issued the Consistorial Bull (2) Christi Ecclesiae regendae munus, providing for the contingencies which would probably occur, if, as seemed probable, he should die in a foreign land, and if the members of the Sacred College should be dispersed (3) :W ewish and command that after the demise of the Sovereign Pontiffs (4), such of the cardinals of the Holy Roman Church as are present at the time shall assemble immediately. They will then examine the situation, and determine whether the Conclave shall be held in the customary place, or whether it be preferable to not fix on any place for the assembly. They will also determine whether the entrance into Conclave shall be hastened or deferred. All will obey the voice of the majority. When Pius YI. had been dragged from Rome by the troops of the One and Indivisible French Republic, and the cardinals had fled to various hospitable countries, this Bull was regarded as insufficient; and accordingly, the Pontiff issued from Florence, on Nov. 13, 1798, the Constitution Quum nos superiori anno, whereby the following dispositions were promulgated. Derogating from the Constitutions of his prede(1) See our Vol. iv., p. 578. (2) So termed because it was signed by all the cardinals present in the Consistory. (3) These measures were supposed not to be divulged ;but the Nouvelliste Politique of Paris, in its issue of the iv. Messidor, An vi. (J uly 2, 1798), gave a synopsis of the Bull. (4) The Latin text of the Bull uses the plural; and so does Baldassari in his Italian translation. It would seem, therefore, that Pius VI. anticipated a prolonged exile of the Papacy from its legitimate seat.
