The College of the Neophytes,〔The history of the popes from the close of the middle ages: Volume 11 – Page 583 Ralph Francis Kerr – 1968 "Gregory XIII. endowed this with privileges and assigned it to the College of the Neophytes."〕 in Italian Collegio dei Neofiti (Latin ''Collegium Ecclesiasticum Adolescentium Neophytorum'' or ''Pia Domus Neophytorum'') was a Roman Catholic college in Rome founded in 1577 by Gregory XIII for education of young men, in an institution for converts from Judaism and Islam that itself been started in 1543 by Pope Paul III. Neophyte in this context generally means converts from Judaism, and ''neofito'' was often appended to Italian surnames to indicate a convert. From 1634 the College was adjacent to the church of Santa Maria ai Monti. The first head of the ''Collegio dei Neofiti'' was Giulio Antonio Santoro (1532–1602), a powerful and authoritative supporter of Gregory XIII, and judge of the Holy Inquisition.〔Azariah de Rossi's observations on the Syriac New Testament. ed. Joanna Weinberg, Azariah ben Moses dei Rossi, Warburg Institute – 2005 "There is, on the other hand, a wealth of material regarding Giulio Antonio Santoro (1532–1602), a powerful and authoritative figure in the Rome of Gregory XIII. As 'Iudex sacrae Inquisitionis', and head of the Collegio dei Neofiti, .."〕 The purpose of the Collegio, in the plan of the Inquisition, was to train the ''neofiti'', or "new Christians," to convert their fellows.〔The Jews of Europe and the Inquisition of Venice, 1550–1670 – Page 248 Brian Pullan – 1998 "As is well known, the conversion campaigns were developed under Pope Gregory XIII: in 1577 he founded the Collegio dei Neofiti to train converts for missionary work, and seven years later issued a Bull urging Christian authorities who ..."〕 ==The Palazzo dei Neofiti== From 1634 the College had a permanent home "at the Madonna de Monti," where cardinal Antonio Barberini, brother of Urban VIII, had constructed a new building, the ''Palazzo dei Neofiti,'' for the college.〔Lance Gabriel Lazar ''Working in the vineyard of the Lord: Jesuit confraternities'' 2005 Page 114 "The last piece of the puzzle came from the Capuchin cardinal Antonio Barberini (brother of Urban VIII, and supporter of S. Caterina as well), who in 1634 constructed the enormous Collegio dei Neofiti next door, and had the last .〕 Barberini also had the last catechumens from S. Giovanni transferred to the new institution.〔Nicholas Terpstra ''The politics of ritual kinship: confraternities and social order'' 2000 Page 147 In 1634, the Confraternity's Cardinal Protector, the Cappuchin Antonio Barberini (brother of Urban VIII), constructed the enormous Collegio dei Neofiti next door, and had the last Catechumens from S. Giovanni transferred there.〕 Notable teachers at the college during this period included Giulio Bartolocci (1613–1687) a Cistercian Hebraist, and author of the ''Bibliotheca Magna Rabbinica'' or "Great Rabbinical Library."〔''Spain and its literature: essays in memory of E. Allison Peers'' 1997- Page 217 ed. Ann L. Mackenzie "Fr Giulio Bartolocci (1613-1687) was a Cistercian orientalist who became professor of Hebrew at the Collegio dei Neofiti in Rome, where he prepared his monumental Bibliotheca Magna Rabbinica (Rome: Ex typ. Sac. Congregado, 1675–1694)"〕 From 1713 the Collegio was allocated away from its original purpose of training missionaries to become a charitable institution, under the ''Pii Operai,'' or "Holy Works." It is from this period that the title ''Pia'' "Holy" is appended, though the title ''Pia'' was not always formally attached, and Papal bullae record subventions to the "poor of the House of the Neophytes."〔Charles Cocquelines ''Bullarium Privilegiorum Ac Diplomatum Romanorum Pontificum'' 1760 Page 56 "Um alias piae memorise Julius Papa Tertius Praedecettor noñer in subventionem, et alimoniam pauperis Domus Neophytorum ad fidem catholicam convertorum , íéu cathecumenorum Urbis nuncup. decreverit, quamlibet Synagogam, adunantiam ..."〕 Like many charitable institutions music played a part in the education and life of the school but only two Latin graduation cantatas survive from the 17th Century.〔Saverio Franchi ''Drammaturgia romana: repertorio bibliografico cronologico'' 1988 Page cxvii "Per il Collegio dei Neofiti alla Madonna dei Monti, dal 1713 affidato ai Pii Operai, mi sono note solo due cantate latine per laurea eseguitevi nel Seicento (cfr.
