Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: NEW-NUM
NICHOLAS V . (Pietro Rainalducci), antipope in Italy from 1328 to 1330 during the pontificate of John XXII. at Avignon, was a native of Corbara in the Abruzzi. He joined the Franciscan order after separating from his wife in 1310, and became famous as a preacher. He was elected through the influence of the excommunicated emperor, Louis the Bavarian, by an assembly of priests and laymen, and consecrated at St Peter's on the 12th of May 1328 by the
bishop
  of Venice. After spending four months in Rome, he withdrew with Louis to Viterbo and thence to Pisa, where he was guarded by the imperial
vicar
 . He was excommunicated by John XXII. in
April
  1329, and sought
refuge
  with
Count
  Bonif ace of Donoratico near Piombino. Having obtained assurance of pardon, he presented a
confession
  of his sins first to the archbishop of Pisa, and then (25th of August 1330) to the
pope
  at Avignon. He remained in honour-able imprisonment in the papal palace until his death in October
1333
