Bernardo Salviati (February 17, 1508 – May 6, 1568) was an Italian condottiero and Roman Catholic Cardinal. Salviati was born in Florence, the son of Jacopo Salviati and Lucrezia di Lorenzo de' Medici, the sister of Giovanni de' Medici. From an early age he was a knight of the Order of St. John of Jerusalem. In his military career he fought against the Ottomans, obtaining the grade of admiral in the Military Order of Malta, which he represented as ambassador before Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor, at Barcelona. He also fought against the Republic of Siena during the Italian Wars. After establishing himself in France, where he rebuilt the Château de Talcy, he became Grand Almoner to Catherine de' Medici (she was his maternal cousin's daughter), who had convinced him to set aside his fighting career for an ecclesiastical one. He followed his brother as bishop of Saint-Papoul.〔His nephew Anton Maria Salviati succeeded him in the see and was later made a Cardinal.〕 He was named Cardinal by Pope Pius IV on February 26, 1561. His brother Giovanni and his nephew Anton Maria were also cardinals. Salviati was also uncle of the future pope Leo XI and of the first Grand Duke of Tuscany, Cosimo I de' Medici. He died in his residence in Trastevere, Rome, on May 6, 1568 and is entombed at Santa Maria sopra Minerva. As the cardinal he wasn't married but is known that Bernardo's daughter and granddaughter, Cassandre and Diane (her father's name was Giovanni), were the muses of two leading French poets of the time, Pierre de Ronsard and Théodore-Agrippa d'Aubigné, respectively. == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bernardo Salviati」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
