Luigi Andruzzi <ref name="term_19682" />  

<p> an [[Italian]] theologian, count of Sant Andrea, was born about 1688 or 1689 on the Isle of Cyprus. He probably belonged to a Venetian family. From 1709 to 1732 he was professor of [[Greek]] in the University of Bologna. He wrote several controversial works against Dositheus, patriarch of Jerusalem, for the defence of the [[Roman]] [[Catholic]] Church, as his opponent had attacked the infallibility of the pope, and revived the famous dispute upon the Filioque. He died near the middle of the 18th century. Among his principal works we notice, Vetus [[Graecia]] de Sancta Romana Sede Prceclare Sentiens, sive Responsio ad Dositheum Patriarchant Hierosolymitanum (Venice, 1713) — Consensus tum Grcecorum turn Latinorum Patrum de Processione Spiritus Sancti e Filio, contra Dositheum, Patriarchanm Hierosolymzitanum (Rome, 1716), dedicated to pope [[Clement]] XI: — [[Perpetua]] Ecclesice Doctrina de Infallibilitate Papce in Decidendis ex [[Cathedra]] Fidei Quaestionibus extra Concilium Ecumenicum et ante Fidelium Acceptionem (Bologna, 1720): — Vindiciae Sermnons Sancti Ildefonsi, Archiepiscopi Toletani, de ‘ Perpetua Virginitate ac Parturitione Dei Genitricis Marice (Rome, 1742). He also translated into Greek several homilies of Clement XI, and a speech of [[Benedict]] XIV. See Hoefer, Nouv. Biog. Generale, s.v. </p>
