	Encyclopedia: Giovanni Leone
		Giovanni Leone, who has died aged 93, was president of Italy during the country's difficult terrorist years, but is now best remembered for his resignation, forced on him by his implication in a corruption scandal.
		Leone is the only Italian head of state to have left office in this traumatic manner, his fall coming more than 20 years before the decapitation of the country's political class for similar reasons.
		Leone was twice famously photographed making the "horns" sign with his index and little fingers, a traditional southern Italian gesture used as an insult or to ward off the evil eye.

	Guardian Unlimited \| Obituaries \| Obituary: Giovanni Leone
		Leone's presidential dignity was further strained by the behaviour of his family and the court of hangers-on who accompanied him to the Quirinale Palace.
		Leone's wife, Donna Vittoria, was an active society hostess.
		Leone's downfall was precipitated by the Lockheed scandal, in particular the payment of bribes to Italian politicians in connection with the purchase of Hercules military transport planes from the United States.

		Leone's independence from the main Christian Democrat factions was one of the reasons for his choice as stopgap prime minister.
		A brilliant professor and successful practitioner of law, Leone is said to have obtained the acquittal of a murder suspect by addressing a court non-stop for three days.
		Leone's disgrace was a rare event in a period when impunity for political corruption was one of the privileges of the ruling elite.

		GIOVANNI LEONE, who has died aged 93, was President of Italy from 1971 until 1977, when he resigned amid allegations of corruption, becoming the first Italian president to do so.
		A short, chubby, convivial Neapolitan, Leone had been called the "babysitter of the republic" for his willingness to form caretaker governments in times of uncertainty (these were not infrequent: since the war, Italian governments had had an average life of just 11 months).

		Giovanni Antonio Leone's Sonate di violino a voce sola, libro primo, opera terza, were published in 1652 in Rome by Vitale Mascardi.
		Going by it, Leone must have enjoyed the favour and protection of Cardinal G.B. Pallotta in Rome, where he composed and played vocal and instrumental concerts promoted by the same Catrdinal in the Church of Lauretana Vergine.
		He must have been very famous at the time because in 1625 one of his motets, Domine, Dominus noster, for Soprano, Bass and thorough bass was published in the collection entitled Sacri affetti con testi da diversi eccellentissimi autori by Francesco Sammaruco.

		There was a measure of justice in the choice: Leone had lost in the 1964 presidential election largely because of Fanfani's opposition.
		Beyond Leone's personal qualifications for the job, there was one other reason why many Italians were ready to forgive the Deputies for their indecision and rejoice in the final selection.
		That was Vittoria Leone, 42, a radiant beauty, who as the new hostess of the Palazzo del Quirinale will rival—and, said some, perhaps overshadow—Madame Claude Pompidou of France as the most beautiful of Europe's first ladies.

	The Harvard Crimson :: News :: Chronicles of Comedy and Corruption
		The portrait of Giovanni Leone (whom the author envisions as still president of the Italy of 1980 in which the coup occurs) is condescending but sympathetic.
		The bite of the satire is playful; Leone is irritated by the noise of electric guitars because he "was himself.
		This hidden political bias becomes clearer when one compares the portrait of Leone, where the satire is deflected from its supposed object and diffused over undefined groups, with the caricature of Berlinguer.

		The birthdate given was one day later than the date I had from family oral history: not important, as it's a very minor and common inconsistency in genealogical research.
		But my grandfather's middle name was always believed to have been Leo (probably Leone, as he was born in Italy), and this birth certificate gave it as Giovanni.
		Crescentia acknowledged that her mother was notorious for changing names, calling people what she preferred rather than what they were actually named, and had given the middle name Leo to three sons, as well as naming one daughter Leonora.
