Il "Ruinate" or "Ruinante"? edit

Most books that are available online refer to Donato Bramante as "Il Ruinante", every other source that refers to him as "Il Ruinate" are websites that appear to have copied the entire sentence from Wikipedia.

I cannot find an online version of Reardon's "The Deaths of the Popes", nor can I find a physical copy of the book in any libraries the country I live in. However, there are several books that spell Bramante as "Ruinante", all of which have portions available on Google Books:

Michelangelo: A Life in Six Masterpieces by Miles J. Unger.
Mighty Europe 1400-1700: Writing an Early Modern Continent by Andrew Hiscock (which itself cites "March of Follow" by Tuchman, p.116).
Mathematical Excursions to the World's Great Buildings by Alexander J. Hahn.
Rome by Maria B. Hall.
A Companion to Renaissance and Baroque Art by Babette Bohn and ‎James M. Saslow.
