Leone XIII, a pope from Italy (born Vincenzo Gioacchino Pecci, 2 March 1810 – 20 July 1903), was Pope Leo XIII (Italian: Leone XIII), a Roman Catholic priest who was born in 1878 (Italian: Leone XIII) was the head of the Catholic Church from 1878 to his death on July 2031.
He was the oldest pope (reigning until 93), and he had the third longest confirmed pontificate after those of Pius IX (his immediate predecessor) and John Paul II. He is best known for his intellectualism and his attempts to define the position of the Catholic Church in the light of modern thought.
Pope Leo outlined the rights of employees to a fair wage, safe working environment, and the formation of trade unions in his 1891 encyclical Rerum novarum, while simultaneously defending both socialism and laissez-faire capitalism.
He influenced Mariology of the Catholic Church and promoted both the rosary and the scapular. Leo XIII published a record of eleven papal encyclicals on the rosary, bestowing him the title of "Rosary Pope."
In addition, he approved two new Marian scapulars, becoming the first pope to fully embrace the idea of Mary as Mediatrix.
Since the Papal States had been dissolved by 1870, he was the first pope to have never had any power over them.
He was briefly buried in the grottos of Saint Peter's Basilica before his remains were later transferred to Saint John Lateran's Basilica.

Giuseppe and Giovanni Battista Pecci were two of his brothers, who were both absorbed in Giuseppe and Giovanni Battista Pecci. He lived at home with his family "in which faith was regarded as the highest honour on earth," because it was her that salvation could be earned for all eternity."

Vincenzo, an 18-year-old Vincenzo, converted in favour of secular clergy in 1828, and Giuseppe became the Jesuit judge. Vincenzo studied at Academia dei Nobili, mainly diplomacy and law. He gave a student presentation on papal decisions in 1834, attended by several cardinals. He received accolades for his academic excellence and piqued Vatican attention for his address. Luigi Lambruschini, the Cardinal Secretary of State, was welcomed to Vatican congregations. He assisted Cardinal Sala in his duties as the city's health administrator during the cholera epidemic in Rome. In 1836, he received his doctorate and doctorates of civil and Canon Law in Rome.
