Encyclopedic overview
Cesare Baronio, known more commonly as Caesar Baronius CO (30 August 1538 – 30 June 1607), was an Italian Oratorian, cardinal and historian of the Catholic Church. His best-known works are his Annales Ecclesiastici ("Ecclesiastical Annals"), which appeared in 12 folio volumes (1588–1607). He is a candidate for sainthood, having been declared venerable in 1745 by then-Pope Benedict XIV.
