Γραμμή 15:
'''Benedict VII''' (born in [[Rome]], the son of David, and previously [[Bishop of Sutri]]; died [[July 10]], [[983]]) belonged to the [[nobility|noble]] family of the [[count]]s of [[Tusculum]]. He was elected by the Roman clergy and people under the influence of Sicco, imperial envoy of Emperor [[Otto II]] (973–983). He governed [[Rome]] quietly for nearly nine years, a somewhat rare thing in those days. Benedict VII's date of birth is not known with certainty. Benedict VII was related to Prince [[Alberic II]] (932–954), and connected to the [[Crescenti family]]. He succeeded to the papacy as a compromise candidate, to replace [[antipope Boniface VII]] (974, 984–985). Boniface VII was [[excommunicate]]d and unsuccessfully attempted to retake the papacy.
Benedict VII promoted [[monasticism]] and ecclesiastical reform along with Emperor [[Otto II]]. He also consecrated the priest James, who had been sent to him by the people of Carthage "to help the wretched province of Africa." Benedict VII visited the city of Orvieto with his nephew, [[Filippo Alberici]], who later settled there and became Consul of the city state in 1016. The Alberici family live there to this day.
