  Bernardo Tanucci
At the University of Pisa, where certain benefactors enabled him to study, he was appointed in 1725 to a chair of law, and attracted attention in the republic of scholars by the vehemence, rather than by the erudition, with which he defended the authenticity of the Codex Pisanus of the Pandects.
When Charles III of Naples succeeded to the throne of Spain in 1759, Tanucci was made president of the council of regency instituted for the nine-year-old Ferdinand V.

To excommunication by Clement XIII Tanucci responded with the occupation of Benevento and Pontecorvo, which were not evacuated until after the suppression of the Jesuits in 1773.

Until he came of age, the kingdom was run in all respects by Tanucci, who continued without delay the reformist policy of Charles of Bourbon, in close agreement with the Throne of Madrid.
A clash with Tanucci was therefore unavoidable, as unavoidable was the progressive break with Madrid, in which the Queen succeeded in involving also Ferdinand (a reason, this, of deep sorrow for the then old King of Spain, who saw not only the political control escape him, but also in a way his son Ferdinand).
In 1775 Maria Carolina officially became member of the State Council; at first, Tanucci had to consent to a great reduction of his scope of action, and then he had to leave the scene in 1777.

 Order of Saint Januarius (Ordine di San Gennaro)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
In a letter from Marchese Tanucci to King Charles III, dated August 12th 1766, the Prime Minister of the Two Sicilies wrote to his former master to request that he make some disposition concerning the Grand Magistery of the Order of Saint Januarius.
He suggested that if the King of Spain wished to retain the Grand Magistery, as founder of the Order, during his lifetime, then he should concede the title of Grand Master Governor of the Order to his son, the King of the Two Sicilies, since the majority of knights were Neapolitans and Sicilians.
[9] Until recently no document was thought to have survived showing when the King actually made this resignation, causing some historians speculatively to date it to 1764; however, it seems that Tanucci's 1765 letter decided King Charles to resign the Grand Magistery, which he did on December 9th 1766.

The next two stages in the settlement story of the Society of Jesus in Messina were the founding of the third Probation House, made possible by a generous legacy, and the founding of the College of San Francesco Saverio on the plains of Terranova which would be destroyed after the Messina anti-Spanish rebellion of 1674-1678.
The last act in the settlement story before the expulsion order decreed by Bernardo Tanucci was the Society's building of the House of Spiritual Exercises in the district of Carrubara.
