Bertrand de la Tour (1265? – 1332 or 1333), also known as Bertrand de Turre, was a French Franciscan theologian and cardinal.[1]
De la Tour was born in Camboulit in the old province of Quercy, France. Serving as a provincial minister in Aquitaine from 1312 onwards he became a leading opponent of the Franciscan Spirituals.[1] He undertook diplomatic missions for Pope John XXII with Bernard Gui from 1317–1318. After this time, he was asked to aid in evaluating the heresy of Peter Olivi.[1] De la Tour was made Archbishop of Salerno and then Cardinal of San Vitale in 1320. In 1323 De la Tour was appointed cardinal bishop of Tusculum.[2]
After the deposition of Michael of Cesena in 1328, on John XXII's behest de la Tour acted as vicar general of the Franciscan Order.[1]
He was nicknamed "Doctor famosus".
