	GIOVANNI PAOLO COLONNA - LoveToKnow Article on GIOVANNI PAOLO COLONNA (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-06)
		Most of Colonnas works are for the church, including settings of the psalms for three, four, five and eight voices, and several masses and motets.
		The emperor Leopold I. received a copy of every composition of Colonna, so that the imperial library in Vienna possesses upwards of 83 church compositions by him.
		Colonnas style is for the most part dignified, but is not free from the inequalities of style and taste almost unavoidable at a period when church music was in a state of transition, and had hardly learnt to combine the gravity of the old style with the brilliance of the new.

		These views and his intervention in 'temporal' affairs led to many bitter quarrels with the emperor Albert I of Habsburg, the powerful family of the Colonnas and with Philip the Fair of France.
		However, before the Pope could lay France under an interdict, Boniface was seized at Anagni by a party of horsemen under Guillaume de Nogaret, an agent of Philip and Sciarra Colonna.
		The pontiff earned this when his feud with the Colonnas led him to demolish the city of Palestrina, killing 6,000 citizens and destroying both the home of Julius Caesar and a shrine to the Blessed Virgin Mary.

	Encyclopedia: Pope Eugenius IV (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-06)
		Taking the name Eugenius IV (or, Eugene IV), Condulmaro was another occupant of the papal throne who did little to curb the fantastic excesses of the Papacy during one of the most critical ever times of trouble for the Western Church and her societas Christiana.
		Showing some signs of promise in his early days as pope, Eugene attempted to reign in the excesses of the Colonna family (thus earning their bitter hatred).
		Within three years of his accession, the pope found himself driven out of Rome by vengeful political enemies (including the Colonnas) and forced to live much of his remaining years in Florence.

		The Colonnas were determined to take it away from them, and they put pressure on the three remaining independent cardinals who were unwilling to offend either family, both of whom had a history of murder and assassination throughout the streets of Rome.
		The Colonnas tried to instigate a revolt against the Pontiff by claiming that Boniface's election was invalid as he had usurped power that rightly belonged to Celestine.
		Under treachery, Colonna gained access with his troops and with drawn sword, Colonna found the eighty year old pontiff seated on his throne dressed in his pontifical regalia, with the three-tiered tiara on his head, cross in one hand and keys to St. Peter's in the other.

		In Colonnas Shipyard's proposed settlement with the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality, the company described three incidents -- two in 2003, one last year in which high concentrations of TBT washed into the Eastern Branch of the Elizabeth River, off company dry docks.
		They were negotiated in part because the yards have long complained that state regulations are too strict and that their contribution to TBT pollution is minute compared with what leaches off the hulls of ships passing through the port of Hampton Roads.

		The Orsini were the first to submit: the next morning their example was followed by the Colonnas.
		At the day and hour appointed Caesar sent out his artillery, which consisted of eighteen pieces of cannon, and 400 infantry of the Sacred College, on each of whom he bestowed a ducat: behind the artillery came a hundred chariots escorted by his advance guard.

		The Colonnas were pledged to maintain a neutrality, and had been consequently restored to the possession of their castles and the cities of Chiuzano, Capo d’Anno, Frascati, Rocca di Papa, and Nettuno, which they found in a better condition than when they had left them, as the pope had had them embellished and fortified.
		Cæsar was still in the Vatican with his troops, who, loyal to him in his misfortune, kept watch about the palace, where he was writhing on his bed of pain and roaring like a wounded lion.

		Princess Colonna's haughtiness, so evidently natural to her, alarmed Rodolphe, who would find enemies in Francesca's father and mother--at least so he might expect; and the secrecy which Princess Gandolphini had so strictly enjoined on him now struck him as a wonderful proof of affection.
		This is the key to her character; she laughs and she is touched; she becomes enthusiastic, and returns to arch raillery with a readiness, a facility, which makes her the charming and exquisite creature she is, and for which her reputation is known outside Italy.
		This rich heiress was at first intended for the cloister, being the fourth child of Prince and Princess Colonna; but the death of her two brothers, and of her elder sister, suddenly brought her out of her retirement, and made her one of the most brilliant matches in the Papal States.

		Caesar was still in the Vatican with his troops, who, loyal to him in his misfortune, kept watch about the palace, where he was writhing on his bed of pain and roaring like a wounded lion.
		Frightened by the troops that Caesar still had, especially since the command was entrusted to Michelotto, they collected all the money they could to levy an army of 2000 soldiers with Charles Taneo at their head, with the title of Captain of the Sacred College.
		Then Colonna saluted the duke, and rejoined his men, directing them towards Albano, while Caesar took the road to Citta Castellana, which had remained loyal.

	The Rule of Four by Ian Caldwell and Dustin Thomason
		The other was from the powerful Colonna dynasty in Rome, and though much is known about other members of his family, relatively little is known about Francesco.
		When these facts are combined with the strangeness of certain elements in the story – the detailed attention to the dimensions and features of buildings the protagonist sees, not to mention the protagonist’s sexual feelings toward those buildings – it’s easy to see why some readers believe there must be a hidden subtext.
		The Rule appears to be related to a set of four cardinal directions and distances found in a diary that surfaces at the beginning of the novel.
