===Other events=== In 1487, Innocent confirmed [[Tomas de Torquemada]] as Grand Inquisitor of [[Spain]]. Also in 1487, Innocent issued a bull [[Id Nostri Cordis]]<ref>{{cite book|last=Innocent VIII |title=Id nostri cordis |series=Histoire générale des Eglises Evangeliques des Vallées du Piemont ou Vaudoises |volume=2 |page=8|date=1669}}</ref> denouncing the views of the [[Waldensians]] (Vaudois), offering plenary [[indulgence]] to all who should engage in a Crusade against them. Alberto de' Capitanei, archdeacon of [[Cremona]], responded to the bull by organizing a crusade to fulfill its order and launched an offensive in the provinces of [[Dauphiné]] and [[Piedmont]]. [[Charles I, Duke of Savoy]] eventually interfered to save his territories from further confusion and promised the Vaudois peace, but not before the offensive had devastated the area and many of the Vaudois fled to [[Provence]] and south to Italy. The noted [[Franciscan]] theologian [[Angelo Carletti di Chivasso]], whom Innocent in 1491 appointed as Apostolic Nuncio and Commissary, conjointly with the [[Bishop of Mauriana]], was involved in reaching the peaceful agreement between Catholics and Waldensians.<ref name=Donovan>{{cite CE1913|last=Donovan |first=Stephen |wstitle=Bl. Angelo Carletti di Chivasso |volume=1}}</ref> In 1486, Innocent VIII was persuaded that at least thirteen of the 900 theses of [[Giovanni Pico della Mirandola]] were heretical, and the book containing the theses was interdicted.<ref>{{cite CE1913|last=Lejay |first=Paul |wstitle=Giovanni Pico della Mirandola |volume=10}}</ref> In Rome, he ordered the [[Belvedere (structure)|Belvedere of the Vatican]] to be built, intended for summer use, on an unarticulated slope above the [[Vatican Palace]]. His successor would later turn the building into the [[Cortile del Belvedere]]. In season, he hunted at Castello della Magliana, which he enlarged. Constantly confronted with a depleted treasury, he resorted to the objectionable expedient of creating new offices and granting them to the highest bidders.<ref name=Weber/> The fall of [[Granada]] in January 1492, was celebrated in the Vatican and Innocent granted [[Ferdinand II of Aragon]] the epithet "Catholic Majesty."
