Biography

Luca Castellini was ordained a priest in the Order of Preachers.[2] A competent theologian, he was elected Procurator of the Dominican Order, and then, in 1611, Vicar General.[3]

On 19 November 1629, he was appointed by Pope Urban VIII as Bishop of Catanzaro. On 25 November 1629, he was consecrated bishop by Antonio Marcello Barberini, Cardinal-Priest of Sant'Onofrio.[2]

He served as Bishop of Catanzaro for only fourteen months, until his death in 1631.[1][2]

While bishop he was the principal co-consecrator of Marcantonio Bragadin (cardinal), Bishop of Crema (1629).[2]

He was the author of De electione et confirmatione canonica praelatorum, and De canonizatione sanctorum: Tractatus de miraculis.[4]

gollark: I run Discord in the browser, personally, to mildly reduce RAM use and data gathering, and use old reddit because new reddit is just terrible.
gollark: I've not heard of that, but that's !!FUN!! too!
gollark: It's really irritating that the web has reached a state where we only have something like two different browser engines, they contain horrendously complex and vast amounts of code which new projects probably can't replicate, websites regularly use hundreds of megabytes of RAM for some reason, and a bunch of "desktop" apps effectively just ship an entire copy of Chrome to run in.
gollark: I find Firefox's inter-device syncing and password manager pretty nice, but most browsers do that anyway now.
