## Bio

Born Bartolomeo Alberto Cappellari in Belluno in 1765, he joined the Camaldolese order at eighteen, taking the name Mauro, and was ordained a priest in 1787 while teaching philosophy and theology. Made a cardinal, he was elected pope in February 1831 and took the name Gregory XVI. His fifteen-year pontificate became a rearguard defense of traditional doctrine and the temporal power of the Papal States against the rising tide of Italian patriotic movements. Overseas, he pushed a renewed commitment to missionary work. In 1839, his papal brief In supremo apostolatus condemned both the slave trade and slavery itself. He died of erysipelas in June 1846, the most recent pope to bear the name Gregory.
