PAGI, ANTONIO. - Friar Minor, b. at Rognes (Provence) on 31 March 1624, d. at Nice on 5 June 1699. He was elected provincial for France in 1652 and three more times thereafter.

A scholar of great worth, he published the Sermones of St. Anthony of Padua and learned dissertations; but better known is the work whose first volume he published in Paris in 1689: Critica historico-chronologica in Annales ecclesiastico cardinalis Baronii, the other three volumes were published by his nephew Francesco (b. 7 Sept. 1654 in Provence, d. 21 Jan. 1721) who had been his companion in the work. The latter in turn published a Breviarium historico-chronologico-criticum on the deeds of the popes up to 1447, on the general councils and the ancient rites of the Church (Antwerp 1717-27 in 4 volumes), continued in turn by his nephew Antonio together with two other volumes.
