July 13 ,939 ),Pope fromJanuary 3 ,936 until his death in 939, was preceded byPope John XI (931–935), and followed byPope Stephen VIII (939–942). [9th edition (1880s) of theEncyclopædia Britannica ] Leo VII's election to the papacy was secured byAlberic II of Spoleto , the monarch inRome . Alberic wanted to choose the pope so that the papacy would continue to yield to his authority. Leo was the priest of St. Sixtus in Rome, thought to be aBenedictine monk. He had little ambition towards the papacy, but consented under pressure.As pope, Leo VII reigned for only three years. Most of his bulls were grants of privilege to monasteries, especially including the
Abbey of Cluny . [ [http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/09160a.htm "Pope Leo VII"] from New Advent Catholic Encyclopedia] Leo called forOdo of Cluny to mediate between Alberic andHugh of Italy , Alberic's stepfather, theKing of Italy . Odo was successful in negotiating a truce after arranging a marriage between Hugh's daughter Alda and Alberic. Leo VII also appointedFrederick, Archbishop of Mainz as a reformer in Germany. Leo allowed Frederick to drive outJews that refused to be baptized, but he did not endorse the forced baptism of Jews. ["Popes Through The Ages" by Joseph Brusher S. J.]After his death in July of 939, Leo VII was interred at
St. Peter's Basilica .References
