Under his protection, the new opinions gained considerable strength; and as his reputa tion for integrity, talents, and personal worth, was equal to that of any sovereign of his time, the partiality which he manifested to Luther greatly contributed to the success of the efforts of that daring innovator.(a)About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This is volume one of the history of the magnificent Pope Leo X, son of Lorenzo de Medici. It was a short pontificate, less than nine years, but it was a noble period, full of splendour, productive events, and exhibited almost every diversity of human characters. Many important events occurred which had the greatest influence on human affairs. The Spaniards discovered the West Indies, the Portuguese found a passage to the East, printing was invented, religion was reformed, Naples was conquered, the expulsion of the royal family of Aragon by Louis XII and Ferdinand of Spain and their subsequent disagreement and conquest for the dominion of the kingdom took place. This was directly due to the connection of Leo X's rule. He contributed greatly to promoting literature and the fine arts and played an important role in the improvement in Italy. These pages exhibit an illustrious period of society, the standards of excellence, the ever-active effect of moral causes on the acquirements and happiness of a people.
