Pope Benedict XIV Lambertini (r. 1740â58) was one of the driving forces behind the Italian Enlightenment of the eighteenth century. His campaign to reconcile faith and empirical science, re-launch a dialogue between the Church and the European intellectual community, and expand papal patronage of the arts and sciences helped restore Italyâs position as a center of intellectual and artistic innovation.
