Pope Clement IX
Clement IX was
pope from
1667 to
1669. Born Giulio Rospigliosi, Clement IX was elected pope in June 1667. Nothing remarkable occurred under his short administration beyond the temporary adjustment of the disputes between the Roman see and those prelates of the
Gallican church who had refused to join in condemning the writings of
Jansen. He died in December
1669.
