He was made See also:cardinal-See also:priest of Sti Nereo ed Achilleo and See also:administrator of the bishopric of See also:Avignon by See also:Benedict XII. in 1338, and four years later succeeded him as pope. He continued to reside at Avignon despite the arguments of envoys and the verses of See also:Petrarch, but threw a sop to the See also:Romans by reducing the See also:Jubilee See also:term from one See also:hundred years to fifty. He appointed Cola di Rienzo to a See also:civil position at See also:Rome, and, although at first approving the See also:establishment of the tribunate, he later sent a See also:legate who excommunicated Rienzo and, with the help of the aristocratic See also:faction, drove him from the See also:city (December 1347).

Clement proclaimed a crusade in 1343, but nothing was accomplished beyond a See also:naval attack on See also:Smyrna (29th of October 1344). He also carried on fruitless negotiations for See also:- CHURCH

He successfully resisted encroachments on ecclesiastical See also:jurisdiction by the See also:kings of England, See also:Castile and See also:Aragon. He made See also:Prague an archbishopric in 1344, and three years later founded the university there. During the disastrous See also:plague of 1347-1348 Clement did all he could to alleviate the See also:distress, and condemned the See also:Flagellants and See also:Jew-baiters. He tried See also:Queen See also:Joanna of See also:Naples for the See also:murder of her See also:husband and acquitted her. He secured full ownership of the See also:county of Avignon through See also:purchase from Queen Joanna (9th of See also:June 1348) and renunciation of feudal claims by Charles IV. of France, and considerably enlarged the papal See also:palace in that city. To See also:supply See also:money for his many undertakings Clement revived the practice of selling reservations and expectancies, which had been abolished by his predecessor. Oppressive See also:taxation and unblushing nepotism were Clement's See also:great faults. On the other See also:hand, he was famed for his engaging See also:manners, eloquence and theological learning. He died on the 6th of December 1352, and was buried in the Benedictine See also:abbey at See also:Auvergne, but his See also:tomb was destroyed by Calvinists in 1562. His successor was See also:Innocent VI.
