Felice Cornicola
Felice Cornicola (Latin: Felix Cornicula), also Felicius, was a Venetian statesman who served as magister militum of Venice in 738. He was the second person to hold the office during the interregnum that followed Doge Orso Ipato's murder in 737. Its first incumbent was Domenico Leoni.
Biography
Originally a citizen of Malamocco, he was described as being a mild and unassuming man whose tenure as magister militum was marked by justness and moderation.[1] He is said to have become so popular with his subjects that he was able to freely and without challenge rescind the sentence of exile against Teodato Ipato, which had been issued soon after the assassination of his father Orso Ipato. Once his twelve-month term had reached its end, Felicius was succeeded as magister militum by Teodato himself, he having gained the favour of the electors since being recalled from exile.[1]
