But while they were able to work together initially, formalizing an agreement in 1801, relations between them rapidly deteriorated. In 1809, Napoleon ordered the Pope’s arrest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAmbrogio Caiani provides a pioneering account of the tempestuous relationship between the emperor and his most unyielding opponent.
