OverviewAI-generated
Benedict XIII, born Pedro Martínez de Luna y Pérez de Gotor in 1328, was a male Latin Catholic priest and university teacher from the Kingdom of Aragon. Educated at the University of Montpellier, he served as a bishop, cardinal, and cardinal-deacon. He is distinct from the later Pope Benedict XIII and is also referred to by the pseudonym Papa Luna. His religious affiliation was with the Catholic Church, and he spoke Latin and Old French.
He held the position of antipope and was associated with the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Avignon. Significant events in his life included participation in the 1378 papal conclave and the Council of Constance, which were central to the Western Schism. Catherine of Siena is noted as a significant person in relation to him. He died on May 23, 1423, at Peniscola Castle.
