Benedict XIII (1649–1730), Pope from 1724. A
Dominican, he presided over the provincial Lateran Council of 1725 which tried to reform clerical morals. Also in 1725 he confirmed the bull ‘
Unigenitus’, though he suffered members of his own Order to preach a doctrine of
grace akin to that of the
Jansenists.
