Ippolito (I) d'Este ((ハンガリー語:Estei Hippolit); March 20, 1479 – September 3, 1520) was an Italian Roman Catholic cardinal, and Archbishop of Esztergom. He was a member of the House of Este. ==Biography== Born in Ferrara, he was the son of Duke Ercole I d'Este and Eleanor of Naples and was immediately educated for a career in the Church. In 1485, at the age of six, he was already at the head of an abbacy, and two years later, thanks to his aunt Beatrix of Aragon, who had married King Matthias Corvinus of Hungary, he was named archbishop of Esztergom in Hungary. The latter election was not confirmed by Pope Innocent VIII until he was eighteen; in the meantime Ippolito studied for seven years at the Hungarian court. After Matthias' death, he travelled frequently to Italy. During one of these trips, he was created cardinal by Alexander VI, on September 20, 1493. Three years later he returned to Italy to escape the plague that was striking Hungary and arrived in Rome with a following of 250 people. He was appointed archbishop of Milan in 1497 and named cardinal in 1509, after which he resided in Rome and governed the archdiocese of Milan through a vicar. According to the tax reports of the Curia for the year 1500, he was the fifth richest member. His influence grew further when his brother Alfonso married Lucrezia Borgia, daughter of Alexander VI, who granted him the title of ''archipresbyter'' of St. Peter's. He remained in Rome until February 15, 1503, although his relationship with the pope later deteriorated due to Ercole's philo-French maneuvers. After Alexander's death, Pius III appointed him bishop of Ferrara, but Ippolito was again at odds with his successor Julius II, and in 1507 he left the Curia. However, the following year Julius praised him for his conduct in the Bentivoglio plot. In 1509 he successfully led a military contingent to regain the Polesine territories that the Este had lost in the war with Venice in 1484, winning the decisive battle of Polesella. On July 27 the pope recalled him to Rome, but, feeling his life was unsafe, Ippolito fled to Hungary. On May 16, 1511, he was among the cardinals who signed the appeal to the pope to speak at the schismatic Council of Pisa. However, his brother Alfonso later convinced him to abandon the schism, and the pope authorized him to return to Ferrara. In 1513 Ippolito moved again to Hungary but, when in his absence Leo X Medici was elected pope, he returned again to his native city. On April 22, 1514, he and his family were pardoned for all their past anti-papal acts. In 1519 he left the archbishopric of Milan to his nephew Ippolito II d'Este. He was a famous patron of the arts. Among his protegée were the poet Ludovico Ariosto and architect Biagio Rossetti. He died in Ferrara during his last return to Italy from an indigestion of lobsters. He was buried in Ferrara Cathedral. His estate, inherited by Alfonso I, amounted to some 200,000 ''ducati''. Ippolito had two illegitimate children. 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「Ippolito d'Este」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
