ACCIAPACCIO, NICCOLÒ. - Cardinal, b. at Sorrento, d. at Rome on 3 April 1447. He was a counsellor of Joanna II of Naples. On 17 Sept. 1410 he was elected by Gregory XII bishop of Tropea; on 24 Dec. 1436, under Eugene IV, he became archbishop of Capua, and on 18 Dec. 1439 cardinal of the title of St. Marcellus. He supported René of Anjou and, for this reason, for some time the revenues of his church were taken from him and he was even sent into exile. He returned to Rome after the death of Eugene IV. He was buried in St. Peter's.
