MALVEZZI, VINCENZO. - Cardinal, b. in Bologna on 22 Feb. 1715, d. at Cento on 3 Dec. 1775. Created archbishop of Bologna and cardinal by Benedict XIV, an enemy of the Jesuits and pleasing to the sovereigns, who hoped for his election as pontiff, he attempted, on the commission of Clement XIV, the elimination of the Jesuits from his diocese: he encountered resistance also in the Senate and among the Bolognese people and had to resort to force. He requested and approved the suppression of the Company.
