Bertrand was born in around 1280 in Castelnau-Montratier in the Lot department of south-western France.^[1] He may have been a nephewofPope John XXII.^[2] As cardinal he was closely involved in dealing with the practical consequences of the migration of the papacy to Avignon, and also in striving to uphold papal prestige in Italy, for example by artistic commissions in Bologna.^[3] He expelled Galeazzo I Visconti, imperial vicar for Emperor Henry VII, from Piacenza^[4] and in 1329 arranged for a public burning of Dante's De monarchia.^[5]

He was created cardinal priest of S. Marcello in 1316, and became bishop of Ostia in 1327.^[6] He participated in the conclave of 1334 that elected Pope Benedict XII and the conclave of 1342 that elected Pope Clement VI.^[7] He died on 3 February 1352. His funeral was held in the church of the Cordeliers in Avignon and he was buried at the church of the Monastery of Clarisse de Saint-Marcel du Puget that he had founded.^[1]^[a]
