[Footnote 56: Joachim Jean Xavier Cardinal Duc d'Isoard (1766-1839), after taking part in several royalist plots, had been appointed secretary to Cardinal Fesch in 1803. He was ordained priest in 1805, created a cardinal by Leo XII. in 1805, and Archbishop of Auch, a duke and peer of France in 1829. The Revolution of July deprived him of his peerage, but he retained his archdiocese.--B.] [Footnote 57: Belisario Cardinal Cristaldi (1764-1831), created a cardinal in 1826.--B.] [Footnote 58: Luigi Lambruschini (1776-1854), Archbishop of Genoa, Grand Prior of the Order of the Knights of Jerusalem, and Papal Nuncio to Paris.--T.] [Footnote 59: The Abbé Pierre (in religion, Marie Joseph) Coudrin (1768-1837) accompanied the Prince de Croy, Cardinal-Archbishop of Rouen, as his conclavist. He did not deserve Chateaubriand's strictures. The Abbé Coudrin was a man of virtue and intelligence, a founder of the Congregation of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary, and of the Perpetual Adoration of the Most Blessed Sacrament of the Altar, known as the Congregation of the Picpus.--B.] [Footnote 60: Ercole Cardinal Dandini (1759-1840), created a cardinal in 1823.--B.] [Footnote 61: Louis I. King of Bavaria (1786-1868) ascended the throne in 1825, in succession to his father, Maximilian I., the first King of Bavaria. Louis was an ardent Philhellenist, and therefore acceptable to Chateaubriand. He neglected no effort to turn Munich into a modern Athens, and introduced an Aspasia into it in the shape of the dancer Lola Montes, whom he created Countess von Lansfeld. Louis I. was driven from his States in February 1848, and abdicated in the following month in favour of his son Maximilian II.--B.] [Footnote 62: Gino Alessandro Giuseppe Gaspardo Marchese Capponi (1792-1876), the Tuscan politician and historian, and author of, among other important works, the _Storia della Republica di Firenze_ (1875).--B.] [Footnote 63: Chateaubriand does not give the name of the correspondent to whom he addressed this letter, but it is clearly the lady of whom he spoke as "a furious Turcophile" in his letter to Madame Récamier of the 15th of January 1829 (_vide_ Vol. IV, p. 297).--B.] [Footnote 64: Domenico Zampieri Domenichino (1581-1641), the noted painter of the Eclectic-Bologna School.--T.] [Footnote 65: Auguste Hilarion Comte de Kératry (1769-1859), one of the editors of the _Courrier français_, and author of the _Dernier des Beaumanoir_ (1824). He was made a peer of France by Louis-Philippe in 1837.--B.]
