Sarpi, Paolo

Japanese: サルピ（英語表記）Sarpi， Paolo

Born: August 14, 1552, Venice
[Died] June 16, 1623.
Italian Catholic theologian, historian, and politician. Also known as Fra Paolo. He is known for being excommunicated in 1607 for his strong opposition to the Pope's interference in Venice and the Society of Jesus as an elected theological consultant for the Republic of Venice. He showed talent from an early age, and in 1565 or the following year, he joined the Congregation of the Servants of the Virgin Mary, and served as its vicar general from 1585 to 1588. During this time, he devoted himself to the study of science and philosophy, but his sympathy with Protestants brought him under suspicion from the papacy. His main work, Historia del concilio tridentino (1619), is a criticism of the papacy after the Council of Trent, and although it lacks accuracy as a historical text, it is vividly written and has been widely read in many languages.

[生]1552.8.14. ベネチア

イタリアのカトリック神学者，歴史家，政治家。別名 Fra Paolo。ベネチア共和国公選神学顧問として，教皇のベネチア干渉およびイエズス会に強く反対したため，1607年破門されたことで有名。幼少から才能を発揮し，1565年あるいは翌年「聖母マリアの下僕会」に入り，85～88年その総代理となる。その間科学，哲学の研究に励んだが，プロテスタントに好意的であったところから，教皇庁の嫌疑を受けた。主著『トリエント公会議史』 Istoria del concilio tridentino (1619) は，トリエント公会議後の教皇政治に対する批判を展開し，史書としての正確さに欠けるが，叙述は生彩に富み，各国語に訳されて広く読まれた。
