Background |
| |
He was born in Siena. In October 1150, Pope Eugene III (1145-1153) appointed him him Cardinal Deacon of the Title of Santi Cosma e Damiano; later he became Cardinal Priest of the Title of St Mark. |
| |
In 1153, he became papal chancellor, and was the leader of the cardinals opposed to Frederick I Barbarossa (1152–1190). He negotiated the Treaty of Benevento, restoring peaceful relations between Rome and the Kingdom of Sicily. |
| |
On September 7, 1159, he was chosen the successor of Pope Adrian IV (1154–1159), a minority of the cardinals, however, electing the cardinal priest Octavian, who assumed the name of Victor IV (1159–1164). |
| |
This antipope, and his successors antipope Paschal III (1164–68) and antipope Calixtus III (1168–1178), had the imperial support; but after the defeat of Legnano (1176), Barbarossa finally (in the Peace of Venice 1177), recognized Alexander III as pope. |
| |
On 12 March 1178, Alexander III returned to Rome, which he had been compelled to leave twice: the first time from 1162, when he was sent into a Campanian exile by Oddone Frangipane following his brief arrest and detainment, until 23 November 1165; and again in 1167. The first period he spent in France, the latter chiefly in Gaeta, Benevento, Anagni, and Venice. |

Crime |

|
Of moral indecency and depravity for the purpose of profiting from slavery (1172): That Pope Alexander III did ensure the profit of the Roman Catholic Church by falsely selling the entire population of Ireland into perpetual slavery to England. Furthermore that the church appointed Irish bishops to whitewash this act of wholesale slavery at the Synod of Cashel by accepting the law of the Pope. |
|
|
Of historic moral indecency and depravity for the purpose of slave trade: That Pope Alexander III and the bishops representing the whole Catholic Church at the Third Lateran Council of 1179 to vote to imposed slavery on those helping the Saracens (Negro Kingdom of Africa). That this action represents a historic milestone in the establishment of the international slave trade by the Roman Catholic Church and clearly demonstrates that slavery for both profit and political advantage was fully endorsed across the Roman Catholic Church. |
