Soundbite of the day: At the 1655 conclave, apparently, some young cardinals played pranks to the older ones and one, Cardinal Caracas, died of pneumonia! #conclave #popefrancisdeath #cardinals.

So nice! After years I returned to some notes I took a long time ago and I am offering a paper on the topic on Friday at a workshop at the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia. There may be a volume coming out of the meeting. Riveting material!.
To mark the start of #conclave, I wrote for @ConversationUK about the astrologers who once made a living predicting the death of popes (with lots of citations of @ProfM_Azzolini).
