Pope Paschal II, born Ranierio, was a native of Ravenna and entered a monastery at an early age. He was elevated to the papacy in 1099, and although he settled papal differences with Henry I of England and Philip I of France, he had much trouble over lay investiture with Henry IV and Henry V of the Holy Roman Empire. After Henry V held Paschal prisoner for two months in 1111, the pope came to see his point of view about the question. However, Paschal repudiated his support for the practice in 1116, the same year that rioting drove him from Rome. Shortly after his return to Rome in 1118, Paschal died at the Castel Sant'Angelo.
