Alanus Anglicus, English canonist teaching and writing at Bologna around 1190-1215. He composed an influential apparatus on the Decretum, Ius naturale, and then revised it to offer a far more enthusiastic defense of papal power. It remains doubtful, however, if his authorship also extended to the commentary on De consecratione as it is transmitted in three MSS of Ius naturale. Because the same comment also circulated separately and is once ascribed to a 'R. de parvi passu' (MS Seo de Urgel, Bibl. Capit. 8 (2882): cf. Rodoricus Modicipassus). The first recension of Ius naturaleexerted great influence on the Anglo-Norman Summa Duacensis. Besides an apparatus on Compilatio I, Alanus further produced a decretal collection (and glosses) which, with that of Gilbertus, became the prime source for Johannes Galensis's Compilatio secunda.

Albertus de Morra Beneventanus (see Gregory VIII)


Albertus Gandinus, born at Cremona, studied civil law at Padua and Bologna under Johannes de Anguissola and Guido de Suzzaria. Later on, he practised as a judge in various Italian communes. The same practical interests are reflected in his writing on criminal procedure, which also relates to canonical matters. He died around 1310.

Aldricus, a Bolognese teacher of Roman, and perhaps of canon law, as his common epithet 'magister' would suggest. Of his canonistic activities we know only indirectly, however, through the references of other canonists (Egidius, Huguccio) of the 1180's.

Alexander III (Rolandus Bandinelli), pope (1159-81). Although John Noonan and Rudolf Weigand have recently disproved the old identification of Alexander with the canonist Rolandus, the contribution of this pope to the history of canon law remains important. Alexander was the first pope who fully grasped the signficance of his role as the supreme legislator of the Church. He issued decretals in unprecedented numbers, deciding many legal disputes that Gratian's Decretum had raised but left unresolved. Contemporary decretists soon appreciated these legislative efforts, whence Alexander figured prominently in the collections of extravagantes proliferating since the 1170's. This was later reflected in the authoritative Liber extra of Gregory IX (1234), which gave Alexander's decretals an importance equalled only by those of Innocent III (1198-1216).

Altmann of St. Florian, provost of the canon regulars of St. Florian from 1212 until his death in 1221/23, published three canonistic works, composed in part in hexameters (d.1221/23). Among them is the Medulla, perhaps the oldest known canonistic monograph. It survives in an earlier version which Altmann later expanded by including verses. Four different recensions of the text circulated. Altmann also composed a procedural ordo (1204/5) which shows resemblances to that of Eilbert of Bremen whom he probably knew personally. His principal work, however, was the Ysagoge, a versified introduction into canon law.

Ambrosius, wrote a Summa (ca. 1213-15) on the titles of the decretals which was based on that of Bernardus Papiensis, but included decretals from Compilatio secunda and Compilatio tertia. Ambrosius further utilized the commentaries of Vincentius in the two Compilationes.

Azo de Lambertaciis (de Lambertazzi). The first news about Azo date back to 1258, when he was a consiliarius with dispensation. Since 1259, he appears as a doctor decretorum, then as a Bolognese professor and lawyer. A. was also a canon at Bologna. As a member of the Ghibelline party, he had to leave Bologna between 1274 and 1278, and was again penalized sometime later. He died probably in 1289.

b.-glosses on the Decretum were produced in the 1160's and 1170's. R. Weigand, has shown that the manuscripts use this siglum consistently, although it may refer in some of them to Bazianus, in others to Bernardus of Pavia. Weigand further believes that the author of the b.-glosses in MS Pommersfelden 142 was a third Bolognese canonist, not to be identified with either Bernard or Bazianus.

Balbus (see Bernardus Papiensis)


Balduinus Brandenburgensis, a Franciscan, composed an important commentary on the Gregorian decretals, ca. 1266-70. He had studied theology at Paris, but probably also spent a considerable amount of time as a student of the canon law.

Baldwin (of Ford), a 'magister scholarum' in the mid-twelfth century. B. served as Archdeacon of Totnes in the diocese of Exeter from 1161-1170. He then retired to the Cistercian Abbey of Ford and became Abbot there by 1175. As Abbot, he served as a Papal judge-delegate on several occasions. B. became Bishop of Worcester in 1180, Archbishop of Canterbury in 1184, and died at Acre in 1190. As a canonist, Baldwin was a collector of Papal decretals (to Exeter, Worcester and Canterbury) and his influence may be seen behind the so-called 'Wigorniensis Group' of Decretal collections. (Collectiones Trinitatis, Wigorniensis, Claustroneoburgensis, Cheltenhamensis, Cottoniana, and Petrihusensis).

Bandinus (Familiatus), Bolognese decretist and civilian (?).  A Bandinus is also cited by the anonymous author of the Fragmentum Cantabrigiense (before 1159).   Tancred mentions Bandinus in his Commentary on 1 Comp. 1.35.7 (X 3.22.3), Admont, Stftsbibl. 22, fol. 39r.  Bandinus Familiatus swore an oath to the city of Bologna on 31 December, 1198.  From Tancred's gloss one might assume that he also wrote on Roman law. 

Bandinus de Gaetano (Gattanus), iurisperitus, is mentioned in a document from Pistoia dated 1215 and witnessed the oath sworn by Bandinus Familiatus in 1198.

Bartholomeus Brixiensis (fl. 1234-58), a student of Tancred and the civilian Hugolinus and later professor of canon law at Bologna. He devoted most of his time to re-editing the canonistic works of his older colleagues which had been rendered obsolete by the appearance of the Decretales Gregorii IX in 1234. Besides revising Brocarda, the Historiae of Damasus, the ordo iudiciarius of Tancred, and the Casus of Benencasa Senensis, he also updated Johannes Teutonicus's Gloss to the Decretum (after 1234), adding his own comments. This text became the Glossa Ordinaria. Bartholomeus's Quaestiones have likewise been shown to be updates of an older collection.

Bazianus (Basianus), one of the most active Bolognese decretists of the 1180's. His glosses, carrying various sigla ('magister basianus', 'b', 'ba', 'baz', 'bar', etc.) appear in most gloss-compositions of the period, such as the apparatus Ordinaturus Magister. He does not seem to have composed a coherent work of his own, but there are several contemporary Summae which closely follow his teachings. His influence on the Summa Casinensis, for example, was very strong. Little is known about his life, but if we believe the information given on a tombstone in the cathedral of Bologna, Bazianus was a native of Bologna and died there in 1197. Most scholars since Diplovatatius have distinguished the decretist Bazianus from Johannes Bassianus (Cremonensis), the famous Roman lawyer. To the contrary, Annalisa Belloni and Domenico Maffei have recently presented evidence which may favor their identification as one person.   It should be noted that the sigla 'Io. Cre. ', or 'Io. b.' were uniform when referring to the civilian.   André Gouron, however, has argued that the two jurists should be distinguished from each other.

Bernard of Pavia (see Bernardus Papiensis)


Bernardus Compostellanus Antiquus, canonist teaching and writing at Bologna from the end of the twelfth century well into the second decade of the thirteenth. Bernardus was unique among canonists in holding that the Emperor in Constantinople was the 'verus imperator'. Bernardus wrote glosses on the Decretum (c.1206-10) which have been preserved in the last layer of glosses in Gniezno MS 28. Bernardus wrote glosses on Compilatio prima, and may also have written on Compilatio secundathough such glosses have not been found. In two manuscripts from Vienna and the monastery of Zwettl may be found a reportatio of quaestiones from Bernardus which he put together while teaching at the short-lived school of Vicenza (1204-9). His most important work was a collection of Innocent III's decretals, the Compilatio Romana. Other sources attest that Bernardus wrote glosses on Compilatio secunda and a tract on marriage, though these works have never been identified. A manuscript in Douai contains an epilogue to Compilatio tertia bearing Bernardus's sigla. Bernardus' last work was a group of additiones to Johannes Teutonicus's gloss on the Decretum written in 1216-17. Bernardus' identification with the homonymous archdeacon of Santiago, attested between 1183 and 1232, is not certain.

4. Compilatio Romana This collection was made up of Decretals from the first ten years of the reign of Pope Innocent III. Bernardus relied on the compilations of Alanus and Gilbertus for the texts of decretals, but there is evidence that he also consulted the Papal registers. Bernardus seems to have been a cavalier editor, cutting out much material from the texts of Decretals. For this reason, perhaps, Petrus Beneventanus was inspired to create another compilation of Innocent's decretals, the Compilatio tertia, which quickly superseded Bernardus's work.DATE/PLACE: 1208, Bologna EDITION: H.

Bernardus de Montemirato (Abbas antiquus), born c. 1225 at Montmirat, near Nîmes. He studied and taught canon law at Bologna, as is attested by his Lectura on the Gregorian decretals, written c.1259-66. The latter date can be determined through the records of the Benedictine abbey of Aniane (near Montpellier), where he first appeared in 1266. Later in the same year, Pope Clement IV made him abbot of Montmajour. In 1386, he was appointed to the bishopric of Tripoli in Syria, but did not arrive there as long as it was still in the crusader's hands (until 1289). After several years in papal diplomatic service, he was finally assigned the administration of the monastery of Montecassino (1295), where he died in 1296.

Bernardus Papiensis (Balbus), born in Pavia. Bernardus studied at Bologna under Bazianus, Gandulphus, and (perhaps) Huguccio. He taught at Bologna during the 1170's and then spent time at Rome working in the curia. In 1187, Bernardus became Provost of Pavia. In 1191, he succeeded Johannes Faventinus as Bishop of Faenza. In 1198, he was postulated to the bishopric of Pavia. He died there on 18 September 1213.

Bernardus was the most important twelfth-century canonist after Huguccio. He wrote glosses on the Decretum which formed the core of the apparatus Ordinaturus magister, which passed for the Ordinary Gloss to the Decretum until the time of Johannes Teutonicus. But Bernardus's lasting achievement was as a decretalist. Bernardus first compiled a modest decretal collection, the Collection in ninety-five titles (or Parisiensis II), between 1177-1179. But far more important was Bernardus's creation, around 1190, of the large, systematic decretal collection, Breuiarium extrauagantium, which became the model for all subsequent collections. He also wrote glosses, Casus and a Summa on the Breuiarium organized by title which helped to establish the genre of the Summa super titulis. The chronology of Bernardus's writings poses significant problems; it seems likely that he wrote and then revised most of his works at least once and perhaps several times.

Bernardus Parmensis (Bottono, de Botone), born in the late twelfth or early thirteenth century, Bernardus studied canon law at Bologna under Tancred; eventually he became a canon and taught canon law there. By 1247, Bernard was also a papal chaplain. His major work was his gloss on the decretals of Gregory IX, which became the Glossa Ordinaria. Bernardus revised and rewrote this work repeatedly from 1241 until his death in 1266, resulting in at least four recensions.

TEXTS:1. Gloss to the Decretales Gregorii IX (Glossa ordinaria) Bernardus integrated many glosses by Alanus, Bernardus Compostellanus Antiquus, Laurentius, Tancredus, and Vincentius on the Compilationes antique into a large apparatus which quickly became accepted as the Glossa ordinaria.

Bonaguida Aretinus, advocate at the Roman curia during the pontificate of Innocent IV (1241-54). His writing on the advocacy deal with the practical, procedural concerns of his profession. It was an important source of the ordines of Egidius de Fuscarariis and Guilelmus Durantis. Bonaguida's Consuetudines offer a unique source for the administrative routines of the papal curia and the chancery in the thirteenth century.

Casus legum I, offer a collection of summaries (casus) of those laws to which Bartholomaeus Parmensis refers in his Glossa ordinaria on Liber extra. The compiler was probably from Paris and the original purpose of his work may have been to provide a reference book for the local school of canon law which since the prohibition of Honorius III from 1219 (Super specula) was denied the direct involvement in civilian studies. Soon it became a useful tool for canonists all over Europe who could not afford full copies of the legal sources.

Walter Deeters has postulated that all members of the Bambergensis-group sprang from an archetype, 'Urbambergensis', consisting of 418 items in 56 titles. This putative collection would have been produced c.1180. The eleven manuscripts containing members of the B.-group were then produced over more than two decades and were influenced by other collections.

Collectio Lucensis, 124 items, the core of which belonged to the pontificate of Alexander III (1159-81). The decretals were assembled unsystematically by at least three scribes at different times, in a process that seems to have lasted from ca. 1194 until 1199 or later. Apparently, the collection was designed as a supplement and update of Continuatio I, since they both do not contain any common material.

Collectio Palatina I, comprises 15 letters, no titles. Its content often overlaps with that of two other collections, Pragensis and Abrincensis II.

Compilatio prima (Breuiarium extrauagantium)

AUTHOR: Bernardus Papiensis (Balbus)

DATE/PLACE: 1189-92/Bologna, likely in more than one phase.

EDITION: E. Friedberg (ed.), Quinque compilationes antiquae Leipzig 1882 [reprint ed. Graz 1956]). In this edition, Friedberg presents only the texts of decretals which had been omitted from the Gregorian Decretals. He presented a register including incipits, explicits, and references to the Gregoriana for the remaining chapters. Thus, this edition must be used in conjunction with Friedberg's edition of the Gregoriana: Corpus iuris canonici, vol. II (Leipzig 1879 [reprint ed. Graz 1956]) 1-928. He claims to have used the following manuscripts for this edition: Munich, Clm 3879; Freiburg 361; Munich, Clm 6352; Fulda D.5; and Leipzig 983; as well as the edition of Antonio Augustin.

MANUSCRIPTS: There are over 140 manuscripts containing all or part of Compilatio prima still in existence. Gerard Fransen has done extensive study on the development of Bernardus's decretal collection, although he has only published a portion of his results. He has argued that this work passed through several phases of development, though it is not clear that Bernardus was responsible for each phase. Acording to Fransen, the manuscripts of Compilatio prima may be divided into four basic groups:

GROUP A (given the Greek letter ) This is the oldest group; it omits 26 of the 912 chapters which Friedberg presents in his edition. Cracow, Domkapital 89; Grenoble 476; Siguenza 10.

GROUP B (given the Greek letter ) Fransen calls this the French group: some chapters omitted in A have been added. This may have happenned in two or perhaps more stages: 1. (10 chapters omitted which are also omitted in group A) ; 2. (only 2-5 chapters omitted: manuscripts vary on 1.12.2 and 4.4.4-5; Fransen believes this subgroup had a single common ancestor. In total this group contains 38 manuscripts: 29 are French/Belgian/Swiss, 7 are German, and 2 are Austrian.

GROUP C (given the Greek letter ) This is the classic group as contained in Friedberg's edition. 36 manuscripts: 12 French, 11 German, 7 Italian, and 6 Austrian.

GROUP D Fransen does not call this a group; but he refers to several manuscripts which contain incongruous or 'intermediary' forms of Bernardus's compilation. 1. A very old Alcobaça manuscript; 2.(something close to but distinct from group B, including Padua 35; Troyes 944; Paris B.N. 15997; Vatican City, Pal. lat. 652; Berlin 231; Worcester, Cath. F.122; and London, Lambeth palace ; and finally, 3. An intermediary group between A and C which is contained in Laon 385.

Fransen has not published a more specific list of the manuscripts in these groups. The remaining manuscripts containing Compilatio prima are: Bruges, Stadtbibl. 367; Bruges, Grande-Séminaire 44-63, fol. 1-86v; Brussels, Bibl. Royale 1407-9 Kat. 2560, fol. 1-90; Bamberg, Staatsbibl.

Compilatio secunda, called 'secunda' even though it was produced after Compilatio tertia because it contains decretals prior to Innocent III. Johannes Galensis seems to have relied upon the Collectiones Gilberti and Alani for the text of decretals. This compilation was likely produced because Compilatio tertia essentially rendered the Compilations of Gilbertus and Alanus half-obsolete; Johannes Galensis simply salvaged from their collections the material not taken by Petrus Beneventanus and put it into a more convenient form.

Compilatio tertia

AUTHOR: Petrus Beneventanus

DATE/PLACE: 1209/10 (Rome?)

EDITION: E. Friedberg, Quinque Compilationes Antiquae (Leipzig 1882 [reprint ed. Graz 1956]) 105-134. In this edition, Friedberg presents only the texts of decretals which had been omitted from the Gregorian Decretals. He presented a register including incipits, explicits, and references to the Gregoriana for the remaining chapters. Thus, this edition must be used in conjunction with Friedberg's edition of the Gregoriana: Corpus iuris canonici, vol. II (Leipzig 1879 [reprint ed. Graz 1956]) 1-928. He claims to have used the following manuscripts for this edition: Munich, Clm 3879; Freiburg 361; Munich, Clm 6352; Fulda D.5; and Leipzig 983; as well as the edition of Antonio Augustin.

Compilatio quarta, an odd compilation in that it contained decretals from Innocent III as well as the Constitutions of the Fourth Lateran Council. It thus was in part a duplication. Only the compiler, Johannes Teutonicus, ever glossed Compilatio quarta. Johannes brought the collection to Pope Innocent III and he went away angry. Stephan Kuttner has asserted that he sought the same sort of authentication for his decretal compilation that was given to Petrus Beneventanus's Compilatio tertia.

Conradus Teutonicus (Konrad von Höxter), the author of a penitential Summula magistri Conradi, which was composed ca. 1226-29. It is based chiefly on the Summa of Damasus. Conradus is held to be identical with Konrad of Höxter, the first Dominican general for the German province (1221-36).

Continuatio prima (see Summa Casinensis)

 

Cy(prian?) may have been the full name of an otherwise unknown magister, who wrote and signed some of the early glosses on Gratian's Decretum. Rudolf Weigand has counted seven of them in two manuscripts.

TEXTS: Glosses on the Decretum, MANUSCRIPTS: Arras, Bibl. Munic. 500; Munich, Clm 28175.

d.-glosses, appear in a strata of Bolognese glosses composed during the 1180's. They are probably unrelated to David of London, whose canonistic activities date to a time prior to the 1170's. As an alternative, Weigand suggests identity with Magister Daifer.

Daifer, Magister, wrote at least one gloss on the Decretum. Rudolf Weigand suggests that Daifer may have been the author of d.-gloss.

Damasus, born in Hungary rather than Bohemia, studied at Bologna and was 'Magister Decreti' at the beginning of the thirteenth century. Damasus taught there until c.1217, the date of his glosses on the arbor consanguinitatis, his last known work. He may also have taught in Hungary. D. wrote an apparatus of glosses on the first three Compilationes, the Constitutions of the Fourth Lateran Council and the Arbor consanguinitatis. Danasus also wrote Brocarda on the Decretum, Quaestiones, and two Summae on decretals. With Alanus Anglicus and Laurentius Hispanus, Damasus influenced the study of canon law in the early thirteenth century by the heavy introduction of Roman law learning.

Decretales Gregorii IX (Also Liber Extra), a compilation of the Decretals from the Compilationes antique edited and reorganized by Raymundus de Peñafort at the command of Pope Gregory IX. According to the promulgation bull of 1234, 'Rex pacificus', Raymundus eliminated all that was contradictory or repetitious. Pope Gregory also contributed decretals, some of them not written on specific cases but stating more abstract points of law. Although the Pope declared that decretals which had been omitted were no longer to be cited, some canonists did so because they valued the 'ratio' which a particular decretal contained. Although 'Rex pacificus' marked an important step on the road to a positive theory of law, nevertheless the older paradigm of law as a sort of written reason was by no means overthrown.

The organization of the Decretales followed the pattern established in the Compilationes antique. There were five books whose contents were suggested by the mnemonic, 'iudex, iudicium, clerum, connubia, crimen'. Each book is divided into titles such as 'de consuetudine', 'de prebendis' and 'de uerborum significatione' which contained a series of decretal letters arranged generally in chronological order.

Major commentaries on the Decretales Gregorii IX were written by the following canonists in the thirteenth century: Aegidius de Fuscarariis, Balduinus Brandenburgensis, Bernardus de Montemirato Bernardus Parmensis (this was the Glossa Ordinaria), Boatinus of Mantua, Bonaguida Aretinus, Egidius de Fuscarariis, Franciscus de Albano, Goffredus de Trano (Tranensis), Guillelmus Naso, Henry of Merseyburg, Henry of Susa, Innocent IV, Pope, Johannes (Guidonis) de Ancona, Johannes Hispanus de Compostela, Johannes de Phintona, Petrus Sampson and Vincentius Hispanus. Later commentaries were written by Alexander de Nevo, Alexander Tartagnus, Andreas Barbatius, Angelo da Castro, Antonius de Butrio, Antonius de Rosellis, Arnold Westphal, Augustin Bero, Baldus de Ubaldis, Benedictus Capra, Cosma Contarini, Dominicus de Sancto Geminiano, Egidius de Bellamera, Felinus Sandeus, Franciscus de Accoltis, Franciscus Zabarella, Giacomo Zocchi, Giovanni Giacomo Can, Henricus Bohic, Henricus minor, Jacobus Cionis Illerdensis, Johannes Andreae, Johannes Franciscus Poggius, Johannes de Lignano, Marianus Socinus, Martinus Martini, Nicolaus de Tudeschis, Paulus de Aretio, Petrus de Ancharano, Petrus Joannis, Philipus Decius, Prosdocimo Conti and Stefano Buonaccorsi.

Gérard Pucelle (Girardus, Gherardus, G. Coventris Episcopis), born c.1115-20 probably in England. Gérard studied and taught theology and possibly law in France. John of Salisbury said Gérard taught 'leges et decreta'. His students included Lucas of Hungary, Walter Map, Ralph Niger, master Richard, and a certain Gervase who retired to Durham. Gérard was connected to the familia of Thomas Becket. He undertook a mission to the Empire in 1165/66 even though Frederick Barbarossa had been excommunicated. In 1168 Gérard returned to England and took the loyalty-oath to King Henry II which had been rejected by Becket. Thereafter, Gérard got the permission of the Pope and King Louis VII of France to reside in Cologne. Cologne was one of the most important centers of canon law learning in the 1160's and 1170's, producing works such as the Summa 'Elegantius in iure diuino'. From c.1174-1183, Gérard served as a principal clerk to Becket's successor, Archbishop Richard. In 1183, he was made Bishop of Coventry, but died only a few months thereafter.

Gratia Aretinus (see Petrus Aretinus), a 13th century canonist from Arezzo who wrote an Ordo iudiciarius after 1234. In a Madrid MS (B.N. 12691, fol. 53ra-60ra), the same work appears under the title of Summa de causis, ascribed to a 'magister Petrus Aretinus'.

Gratian, a monk (?) and canonist working in Bologna (c.1125-40). Little is known of his life. His chief work, the Decretum (Concordia discordantium canonum), was completed c. 1140 and was the culmination of attempts to shape the materials of canon law into a system and provide a basis for its study and application. It became the first standard textbook of the subject in the schools.   A whole new stage in our understanding of Gratian and his work has begun with the publication of Anders Winroth's book (see bibliography below).  Winroth discovered an earlier recension of the Decretum.  Carlos Larrainzar has argued that Sankt Gallen, Stiftsbibliothek 673 contains an even earlier version of Gratian's work.  The full ramifications of Winroth's and Larrainzar's studies have yet to be worked out.

TEXTS: Decretum, formally titled Concordantia discordantium canonum, this was the founding work of the classical period of canon law study. The work was composed by Gratian between  ca. 1120 and 1140 out of approximately 3,800 texts from from patristic writers, conciliar canons and papal letters, as well as other sources which were included in the canonical collections on which he relied. The Decretum adopted the Scholastic 'Sic et non' method pioneered by Peter Abelard, arranging texts on different sides of particular questions and then attempting to resolve the difference in passages written by the author, the dicta. The received work is in three parts. I: 101 Distinctiones; II: 36 Causae subdivided into Quaestiones; and III. de consecratione a work on sacramental matters divided into five Distinctiones. The structure of part II is interrupted in C.33 q.2 by the inclusion of the De penitentia, which is divided into six Distinctiones; this was an interpolation which quickly became accepted into the Decretum text (see Wojtyla).

Gratian relied upon a number of earlier canonical collections as sources for his texts, as Peter Landau has indicated, including certainly the collection of Anselm of Lucca, two collections of Ivo of Chartres (the Tripartita, and the Panormia), the collection of Polycarp, the Collection in three books, and the Liber de misericordia et iustitia of Algers of Lüttich. He may also have used or at least known Ivo's Decretum, the Decretum of Burchard of Worms, Isidore's Etymologiarum, and the Collection in seventy-four titles.

Gratian's methodological antecedents were most importantly the Prologue of Ivo of Chartres and the book by Algers of Lüttich, both of which treat the harmonization of canonical texts.

As has been said, the Decretum which became the accepted text in the Bolognese law-school was not the work which left Gratian's hands. The  De consecratione were likely added to Gratian's original work shortly after its publication. The brief chapter summaries were also quickly added. Furthermore, a number of passages from Roman law were interpolated into the Decretum in the mid-twelfth century along with more than 150 other texts from canonical sources, but these are identified in the manuscripts as 'paleae', a term which was once thought to have derived from the decretist Paucapalea, the putative interpolator. The contemporary view seems to be, however, that the word palea means 'chaff': texts which were winnowed by Gratian but were then added back to his good grain by canonists of the mid-twelfth century.

This modification of Gratian's text could be even more radical. Abbreviations of the Decretum were written during the twelfth and thirteenth century (see Abbreuiatio Decreti); and there were several attempts to reorganize and rework the Decretum, the most important being that of Laborans (See Transformatio Decreti and Laborans).

Guillelmus Durantis the Elder (William Duranti; the Speculator) is the famous author of the Speculum iudiciale, the most widely used procedural treatise of the Middle Ages. He was born near Beziers in Southern France, in 1236. He studied canon law at Bologna under Bernardus Parmensis and later taught at Modena. Pope Clement IV (1265-68) made him auditor generalis of the Rota, which gave him the pratical experience reflected in his chief work. G. attended the Second Council of Lyons in 1274 and later wrote a commentary on the council's constitutions. The peak of his administrative career was reached when he became rector generalis of the papal states in 1278, which he then exchanged for the rectorship of the new French papal provinces (1281-82). Guillelmus became bishop of Mende in 1286. He died at Rome ten years later.

Henry of Susa (Hostiensis), one of the most eminent of the thirteenth-century decretalists who combined his accomplishments as a jurist with an equally successful ecclesiastical career. Born around 1200, he studied law at Bologna in the 1220's, at about the same time when Sinibaldo dei Fieschi, the future pope Innocent IV (1241-54), began his training as a lawyer there. It remains uncertain whether Hostiensis ever taught in Italy. By 1239, he was apparently archdeacon of Paris and may have taught on the Gregorian decretals, whereas other sources relate his long stay in England (1236?-44) as a member of the household of Queen Eleanor. Simultaneously, his relationship to the the papacy grew very close, whence Henry soon served as Pope Innocent's chaplain. He received the bishopric of Sisteron in 1243-1244, and later became archbishop of Embrun (1250-61). The pope repeatedly employed him in diplomatic missions. His efforts were finally rewarded with the cardinalate, which Pope Urban IV bestowed upon him in 1262, in form of the bishopric of Ostia whence he was later called Hostiensis. He participated in the protracted conclave at Viterbo (1268-70), but illness forced him to leave before the final election took place. When he died in the Dominican convent at Lyons (1271), he had just completed the second version of his Lectura on the Decretales Gregorii noni. Among his earlier works, the Summa on the Decretals of Gregory IX, completed ca. 1253, was even more celebrated. Since the early days of printing, this work came to circulate with the epithet aurea (first in ed. Rome 1477). Henry also published a Lectura on the first two collections of Novelle promulgated by Innocent IV (1245/46), to which he added several later decretals (before Sept. 1253).

Honorius III, Pope (1216-1226), commissioned Tancred, then the leading canonist at Bologna, to compile a collection of his decretals. This became the Compilatio quinta, the last of the Compilationes antiquae. Known especially for the decretal Super speculam, which restricted the study of Roman law among clerics. Like a number of very long decretals, Super speculam circulated as a separate text.

Honorius, Magister, may be the Honorius who received a benefice at Willesborough through a letter of Lucius III in 1184 or 1185. Honorius probably spent the years 1185-95 at Paris studying and perhaps teaching law, although he did witness a charter in England in 1192. H. wrote the Summa 'De iure canonico tractaturus' at Paris very close to 1188 and the Summa quaestionum soon therafter. From 1195, Honorius was in the service of the Archbishop of York. H. also served the King in the dispute over the election of Hubert Walter's successor as Archbishop of Canterbury. Honorius was imprisoned in 1208 for unknown reasons and not, as had been thought, for failure to pay 300 marks owed to the crown for letters of protection. He died in prison by 1213.

Hostiensis (see Henry of Susa)


Hubaldus, Magister, this cardinal priest of SS. John and Paul (c.1149) was once identified with the twelfth century canonist Cardinalis by Rudolf Weigand. But this has recently been disproven and he has agreed with Gouron that Cardinalis was Raymond des Arènes (see Cardinalis).


Huguccio (Hugo, Uguccione; not to be confused with the grammarian, Huguccio of Pisa), fl. 1180-1210, Bolognese decretist and author of one of the most influential Summae on Gratian's Decretum (ca. 1188-1190). The first signs of his teaching appear in decretist commentaries and glosses of the 1180's, such as the apparatus Ordinaturus Magister(1180-1190) and the Summa Casinensis. There are strong indications that Huguccio completed the work in intermittent stages, putting off the writing of the sections on Causa 1 (stage II), De consecratione (stage III), and De penitentia (stage IV), until he had finished the rest (stage I). On 1 May, 1190, Huguccio became bishop of Ferrara, whereupon he seems to have abandoned the completion of his commentary, leaving the portion on C.23 q.4 c.34 - C.26 (stage V) unfinished. Huguccio died after 'twenty years less one day' in office, on 30 April 1210.

Prior to composing his great Summa, Huguccio had composed a minor exegetical treatise on the Apostolic Creed (Expositio de symbolo apostolorum), as well as a work containing etymological explanations on the names of saints, called Hagiographia. Both texts reveal Huguccio's great interest in etymologies. This may suggest his identity with the Bolognese grammarian Huguccio of Pisa, who during the 1160's wrote the Derivationes, a widely used and comprehensive Latin etymological dictionary. The lexicographer also produced minor grammatical writings, which most likely included a Summa artis grammatice. The title and contents of this Summa, as well as some of the sources used by the Derivationes, point towards a strong French intellectual background of the grammarian Huguccio and a close acquaintance with the writings of French teachers such as William of Conches, Petrus Helias, and Robert of Paris (in the 1150's ?). These chronological and other considerations speak against an identification of the canonist with the grammarian.

Huguccio Vercellensis (da Borromei), born at Vercelli, Huguccio was a canon of St. Peter at Bologna and taught canon law and perhaps also Roman law there during the 1280's. He later became a papal auditor and finally bishop of Novara in 1304. Four quaestiones survive from his days as a teacher. Huguccio died in 1328.

Innocent III, Pope (1198-1216) Lothario di Segni (born c.1161), Pope who exerted a great influence on the development of the medieval papacy and the canon law. Once reputed to have been a lawyer taught by the great canonist Huguccio, the work of Pennington and others strongly suggests that, whatever his legal talents, Innocent III was not a university-trained jurist by the standards of the time. Innocent studied theology in Paris and probably studied law for a short time at Bologna.

Innocent had a celestial image of the papacy as the intermediary between God and man. This image is best understood as theological rather than juristic, nevertheless, in the language of Innocent's sermons and decretal letters, he established the language and arguments with which jurists discussed the power and role of the papacy for more than a century.

Innocent III also effected important changes in the administration of the Church. The curia was greatly expanded during his pontificate, and the papacy began to gain control over the translation, deposition and renunciation of bishops and the collation of ecclesiastical benefices. Even though Innocent asserted, in the decretal Quanto personam, that the translation of a bishop was such a serious and extraordinary matter that it required divine authority, he translated many more bishops than any previous pope. Innocent asserted more control over prebends and, in the Fourth Lateran Council constitution De multa, the power of bishops to dispense from the prohibitions against pluralism was curtailed.

Innocent also asserted and defined (broadly) papal power to interfere in secular affairs in a series of decretals, Licet, Novit, Solet, Venerabilem, and Per Venerabilem.

Innocent's decretals, which effected tremendous changes in many areas of canon law, were collected by several canonists; Petrus Beneventanus's Compilatio tertia which Innocent himself authenticated for the law school at Bologna, and Johannes Teutonicus's Compilatio quarta were the most important.

Innocent IV, Pope (1243-54) (Sinibaldus Fieschi, Fliscus), born in Genoa before 1200. Innocent studied law Parma and perhaps at Bologna   Some accounts say that, early in his career, Innocent taught law in Bologna, but there is not evidence. He worked as a jurist at the papal curia from 1226 and was for some time the auditor of the court of audientia litterarum contradictarum. I. was made a cardinal by Pope Gregory IX in 1227. He was elected Pope in 1243 after a long, rancorous vacancy following the brief pontificate of Celestine IV (1241). Innocent IV died on December 7, 1254 in Naples.

Innocent IV's pontificate was notable for three things: a decisive struggle with the Emperor Frederick II, the Pope's extended absence from Rome, and for his contributions to the canon law. Innocent presided over the first general council of Lyon, in which the pope deposed Frederick II in absentia, and in which a number of important canons reforming aspects of ecclesiastical law and administration were enacted.

As a jurist, Innocent IV wrote a lengthy and extremely influential Apparatus on the Decretals of Gregory IX, which he worked on over a long period of time and was finished ca. 1245. He prepared three collections of his own decretals, which included the canons of Lyons I (Novelle Innocentii quarti). Innocent also wrote commentaries on his novelle, including an authoritative commentary on the Lyon deposition decree of Frederick II (Ad apostolicae dignitatis apicem, VI 2.14.2). An Ordo iudiciarius exists which, at least in an early form, has been attributed to Innocent IV, but it seems very doubtful that he wrote such a work.   There is still not certainty whether Innocent wrote the polemical tract 'Eger cui lenia(levia)'.  William of Ockham thought that he did, but Ockham is a late witness.  Short Biography of Innocent IV

Introductio ad Decretum 'In prima parte agitur', one of the oldest introductory summaries to the Decretum which precedes Gratian's text in several twelfth-century manuscripts. It was composed by an anonymous  canonist probably during the 1140's. There are also at least two copies in which it is transmitted separately, attesting to its great success. As is true for other early twelfth-century introductions, it does not cover De consecratione.

From 1220-30, Jacobus taught canon law at Bologna. Among his students were Henry of Susa (but not, as was once thought, Peter Sampson). He was promoted provost of Albenga and then to the Bishopric. Guilelmus Durantis referred to Jacobus as the Bishop of Faenza. Schulte believed this but Kuttner does not.

Jacobus wrote the most important apparatus to Compilatio quinta. His glosses to the Decretum appear in Glossa Palatina. Jacobus also wrote additiones to Tancred's gloss on Compilatio prima and some glosses to Compilatio quarta.

Johannes (Guidonis) de Ancona, wrote a Summa on the Decretales Gregorii IX (c. 1265-68). He was most likely a layman and a Roman lawyer and worked at the curia of the patriarch of Jerusalem when he composed the work. Johannes also served as a procurator for the Knights Templar. Johannes's Summa was an elaboration on the Summa of Goffredus Tranensis. In two places in his Summa, Johannes de Ancona refers to his own commentary on the Libri feudorum, but this work has never been found. Johannes's Summa was not influential.

Johannes de Deo, born in Silves, Portugal. He studied law at Bologna during the 1220's under Zoen Tencararius. From 1229 until at least 1255, he taught there and produced numerous canonistic writings, usually of a more introductory than a scholarly nature. Perhaps his most important work was a historical work on the study of canon law (No. 7). Johannes spent the last years of his life in Lisbon where he had become archdeacon in 1260. Johannes died in 1267.

Johannes Faventinus, born in Faenza, studied canon law in Bologna and became a professor around 1170. He immediately began his publishing career as a commentator and glossator of the Decretum, which continued undisturbed when he left Bologna, in 1174, to become a canon in Faenza. He probably has to be identified with the Bishop Johannes of Faenza (1177-90), who rules over his diocese just about the time when Huguccio's teachings began to gain predominance over his own. Unlike most of his colleagues, Johannes prepared the ground for his glossing activities by composing a Summa (ca. 1171). It consisted of little more than a compilation based on the two Summae of his predecessors, Rufinus and Stephan of Tournay. Modern scholars have often called him a plagiarist for that reason, despite the fact that Johannes fully acknowledged his indebtedness in the prologue. More importantly, the work was warmly welcomed by his audience, as is attested by the great number of surviving manuscripts, more twelfth century manuscripts even than for Huguccio. In addition, Johannes expressed his own doctrinal opinions in a vast amount of single glosses on all parts of Gratian's work. They also enjoyed great success and circulated widely, in what made Johannes the most cited canonist prior to Huguccio.

Johannes Galensis (John of Wales), little is known about Johannes's life except for the years arund 1210, when he suddenly appeared among the Bolognese decretalists. In 1210-12, he privately assembled a collection of papal decretals soon to be accepted as Compilatio II. Drawn from the collectiones of Alanus and Gilbertus, it was mainly concerned with supplying the chronological gap (1191-97) left by the preceding Compilationes I (1191) and III (1210), the latter of which had only included decretals from the first twelve years of Innocent III's pontificate (1198-1209). Johannes also wrote single glosses on it and produced the first apparatus on Compilatio III.

Johannes Teutonicus (Zemeke), ca. 1170-1245, taught canon law at Bologna ca. 1210-1212/1213-18. He studied law in Bologna in the last decades of the twelfth century and then began to teach there.  In 1216 Johannes visited the papal court and departed in anger. Kuttner and Pennington have argued that he was seeking papal endorsement for his decretal collection (Compilatio quarta). Although Innocent III did not grant his request, Johannes's collection followed Compilatio tertia into the accepted canon of Compilationes antiquae. He also provided a gloss-apparatus for it, which is the only one ever to be composed on this (perhaps) reluctantly accepted collection. After his departure from Bologna, he became scholasticus(1220), provost (1223), and dean (1235) at S. Mariae in Halberstadt. Later, he advanced to the position of provost (1241) in the cathedral church of Halberstadt.  A legend in Halberstadt credits him with being an important figure in the building of the new gothic cathedral.   His tomb and fifteenth-century epitaph (probably based on an earlier one) are in the Cathedral of Halberstadt.

As a canonist, Johannes was quite capable as a synthesizer. He managed to draw together the contributions of Huguccio, Laurentius, and the 'Ordinaturus magister' apparatus so successfully in his gloss to the Decretum that it became the Glossa ordinaria. But he could also be independent and creative, as in his gloss to the constitutions of the Fourth Lateran Council (1215) and - even more so - to Compilatio tertia.

John of Kent, an Anglo-Norman canonist of the late twelfth century. J. Goering has suggested his identity with Master John of Kent who in 1204 became chancellor of St. Paul's Cathedral in London, and later (ca. 1213/14)seems to have entered the service of the Archbishop of Canterbury. At any rate, the canonist was still alive after 1215, since John's recently discovered Summa on Penitence (ca. 1212-20) includes several passages invoking the Fourth Lateran Council. Therein, the author reveals a canonist's approach to the topic. Some canonistic quaestiones carrying solutions ascribed to 'Jo. de chent' are further reported in the Quaestiones Londinenses (see ibid.)

TEXTS:1. Summa de penitentia EDITION: None. The prologue and the incipits of book I-III have been printed by J. Goering, BMCL 13 (1983) 22-24, also a list of the rubrics (book I-III), ibid. 29-31 (transcribed from the only known, complete copy in MS London, Brit. Libr. Royal).

John of Tynemouth, a prominent canonist of the Anglo-Norman school. His lecturing on Gratian's Decretum is amply reported in a Cambridge manuscript. Several quaestiones of his have also survived in written form. He was also active as a commentator of English decretal collection preceding Compilatio I. All of these materials, which represent reportationes rather than writings of his own, derive from John's teaching during the years 1188-1198, probably at Oxford. After joining the household of the archbishop of Canterbury, around 1199, and a stay at Lincoln (ca. 1206-15) as a canon of the cathedral chapter, he returned to Oxford, in 1215, as an archdeacon. There he died in 1221.

Laborans, born at an unknown date at Pontormo near Florence, studied in France and received the cardinalate in 1173. Besides several theological treatises, he spent twenty years (1162-82) working on his Compilatio decretorum, which aimed at re-arranging Gratian's Decretum in a more orderly fashion. Gratian's material, plus a minor amount of other legal and biblical (!) texts (with the conciliar statutes of Lateran III [1179] added in the margin), was re-distributed into six books and subdivided into 'partes' and titles. Like Gratian, Laborans presented the single chapters along with his own comment. He also provided cross-references. Although Laborans transformed Gratian into a much better organized text, the Decretum was by this time too well established as to be replaced by the new compilation. In fact, it received no attention at all among contemporaries. Laborans died ca. 1190.

Laurentius Hispanus, fl. 1200-48, taught canon law at Bologna (c.1200-1214); archdeacon of Orense (1214-1218); bishop of Orense from 1218 to his death in 1248. Laurentius was an important and innovative legal thinker whose writings betray a lively, sarcastic wit. Laurentius wrote two influential works, the Glossa Palatina on Gratian's Decretum, and an apparatus of glosses on Compilatio tertia. Laurentius' glosses from these works were cited occasionally in the Glossa Ordinaria to the Decretum and extensively in the Glossa Ordinaria to the Decretals of Gregory IX, as well as in the works of later canonists. In fact, a revision of Johannes Teutonicus's Glossa Ordinaria on the Decretum, called the 'Laurentiustype', was produced in the mid-thirteenth century which incorporated much material added from Laurentius which Johannes had not used. And at the end of the thirteenth century, the canonist Guido de Baysio incorporated a great deal of Laurentian material into his enormous Decretum-commentary, the Rosarium.

Laurentius also wrote glosses to Compilatio prima which can only be found in the apparatus of Tancred. In addition to these works, Stickler has demonstrated that Paris, B.N. MS lat. 15393 contains an independent reportatio of Laurentius lectures on the Decretum written by someone who heard them.

Laurentius's numerous references to Azo and Bernardus Compostellanus suggest that these two were among his teachers. An early work, a Distinctiones Decretorum, shows the influence of Ricardus Anglicus. Tancred and perhaps Sinnibaldo Fieschi (Innocent IV) were his most important students.

TEXTS:1. Distinctiones decretorum, in Monte Cassino Bibl. Abbaziale 313 pp. 69-84. Laurentius' authorship remains doubtful.

2. Tractatus de penitentia, Laurentius wrote a large number of glosses on the de penitentia many of which he gathered together into a self-standing apparatus. This work circulated commonly with the Glossa Palatina and with other Decretum apparatus. García y García counted over two-hundred and fifty manuscripts containing Laurentius's glosses on the de penitentia. Unfortunately, these collections of glosses do not conform to clear recensions. It may be that a large number of glosses which Laurentius presumably left out of his apparatus or wrote later on were added to it piecemeal by canonists over many years, making for numerous sets of glosses conforming to no apparent development. see García, Laurentius Hispanus.

3. Glossa Palatina, an important apparatus on Gratian's Decretum named for the Vatican manuscript in which it was first identified. The Glossa Palatina, which quotes many glosses from Bernardus Compostellanus, Ricardus, Huguccio, Sylvester and others, was almost certainly compiled by Laurentius. Alfons Stickler produced an intricate argument establishing Laurentius' authorship, the central point of which is that Glossa Palatina, despite the massive number of his glosses which it contains, has no sigla at all for Laurentius, but many sigla for the other canonists that are quoted. Only Laurentius' authorship of the work could account for this.

Lecturae decretalium Aurelianenses, contain a series of lecture notes which were taken at Orleans around 1285-87. The materials gathered are largely anonymous, while the remainder attests to the canonistic teaching of several jurists, who are otherwise known only for their civilian works. Martin Bertram has called the compilation the most important testimony to the school of canon law at Orleans.

Nothing is known about the author, but the date of composition can be inferred from the fact that the text is preserved in a Montecassino manuscript along with a marginal gloss containing references to the Compilationes antiquae. It was probably composed prior to 1234.

Marcoaldus (Marquard von Ried, M. de Padua, Marcoardus Teutonicus), magister decretorum at the University of Padua, ca. 1226-36, later provost of the collegiate chapter Mattsee (1240). Around 1229, Marcoaldus composed a metric praise of Frederick II, which showed that he was strongly in favor of the imperial cause in its contest with the papacy. At the same time, the poem attest to Marcoaldus' expertise in canon law through its skillful use of legal terminology. That he was a renowned canonist is further suggested by the fact that the copies of Compilatio V sent by Pope Honorius III to Padua in 1226 were addressed to 'Magistro Marcoaldo et universibus scholaribus Padue commorantibus.' In fact, glosses of Marcoaldus on Compilatio survive in two manuscripts.

Martinus Zamorensis (Martin Arias?), bishop of Zamora 1193-1217 (according to A. García y García). His performance as the chief administrator of the bishopric seems to have met with severe criticism, including that of Innocent III in a letter of 1198 (Register 1.58). But on the same occasion, Innocent praised him as an 'expert in civil as well as in canon law'. Several of the glosses he wrote while teaching at Bologna have survived in the manuscripts, and some of his opnions are reported in the Glossa Palatina. Stephan Kuttner has further found glosses and notabilia signed by 'mar.' in a copy of Compilatio IV. If they were Martin's, this would prolong his teaching career at least until 1216. Stephan Kuttner therefore has suggested his identity with Martinus Roderici, Arias's successor at Zamora (1217-38).

Monaldus of Capo d'Istria (d.1285), a Franciscan and author of a penitential Summa which he completed before 1274. The work borrowed much from the Summa of Raymond of Penyafort and the writings of Henricus de Segusia (Hostiensis), but introduced a new method in presenting the material. Instead of the logical order that had been adopted by the older writers, Monaldus resorted to an alphabetical arrangement. In this, he was to be followed by most of the later penitential authors.

Notabilia Ad notitiam contrariorum (before 1234), according to Stephan Kuttner a brief compilation not referring to any canonistic textbook in particular. After a more careful examination of the work Kuttner concluded that it rather belonged to new literary genre listing references for the solution of contraria. Hence it should better be entitled De modis solvendi contraria.

Odo of Dover (de Doura), author of a French Summa on Gratian's Decretum, which in many respects rather resembles an abbreviation. This may explain the title Decreta minora, given to it in the only surviving manuscript. Formal similarities with the Summa Coloniensis suggest that Odo composed his work around 1170. At any rate, it is later than the Summa of Stephan of Tournay (c. 1165/66), which Odo already knew.

Omnebene (Omnibonus), as attested by a letter of Pope Eugene (d.1153), Omnebene was one of the earliest decretists at Bologna. In 1157, he left his teaching position to receive the bishopric of Verona, where he died in 1185. As a canonist, he composed an Abbreviatio decreti, which differs remarkably from the subdivisions usually applied to Gratian's work. This has led some scholars to believe that he wrote his text at a time when the Decretum had not yet received its definitive shape. Some Scholars have suggested a date between 1147 and 1155, while others prefer 1156, the year once referred to by the Abbreviatio itself. Most recently, Rudolf Weigand has supported the latter date with considerable internal evidence.

Ordinaturus Magister, an important apparatus on the Decretum of Gratian which was composed and used in the Bolognese law-school. Ordinaturus magister was what passed for the 'Ordinary gloss', until it was superseded by the gloss of Johannes Teutonicus (1215). The influence of this apparatus extended to the Glossa Palatina (1210-15) and to Johannes's gloss itself. Ordinaturus magister was probably not composed by a single author, but rather represents the outcome of a collective effort at the Bolognese schools. Rudolf Weigand has argued that Huguccio and his followers exerted a decisive influence on the first recension (ca. 1180), and were also largely responsible for its revision towards the close of the 1180's.

EDITION: None, although in his several books and articles, Rudolf Weigand has published extensive excerpts.

MANUSCRIPTS: It is doubtful that any manuscript contains Ordinaturus magister in a complete form. Rudolf Weigand considers  Erlangen, Universitätsbibl. 342 as the best representative of the first recension, Munich, Clm 10244 (to be consulted along with a Jena manuscript), as the fullest copy of the second recension. The remaining copies have had more or less of the apparatus erased, as is typical of a text being constantly reshaped. All in all, Weigand associates ca. 16 manuscripts with the first, and ca. 5 manuscripts with the second version of Ordinaturus Magister. There are another twenty copies which contain parts of the apparatus. However, Weigand never published a comprehensive list of them.

Paucapalea, a pupil of Gratian and the author of the first commentary on the Decretum, written ca. 1146-50. Besides, Paucapalea produced a small number of single glosses on Gratian's work. He is also said to have been responsible for the final arrangement of Pars I and III of the Decretum, which he subdivided into distinctiones. Another notice making him chiefly responsible for the inclusion of paleae has not found general acceptance among the scholars, though it is known that P. was responsible for some of the Paleae. Of Paucapalea's life we know nothing.

Paulus Ungarus, author of two influential collections of Notabilia on the Compilationes II and III. After a teaching career at Bologna (since 1219 at least), he entered the Dominican order in 1221, to become a celebrity as a preacher. In this capacity, he wrote a widely known Summa de penitentia(ca.1220-21) and was sent by the Dominicans as a missionary to Hungary (1221) and beyond. He died in 1242. A minority of scholars (e.g. H. Weiseweiler) has questioned the identity of the canonist and the Dominican.

Pelagius Albanensis (Pelayo Gaytan), Bolognese canonist and later highly ranked official of the Church. Innocent III made him cardinal in 1206, and in 1213 he received the bishopric of Albano. He died in 1230 at Montecassino. Several of his glosses (signed 'pe.' or 'pel.') on the Decretumsurvive in a Vatican manuscript, whereas we know about his teachings on Compilatio prima not only from several independent glosses preserved in a text at Modena, but also through references to be found in the apparatus of Vincentius. He also influenced the drafting of constitutions for Leon, issued by Pope Honorius in 1224.

Perpendiculum (Summmula de presumptionibus), one of the oldest collections of brocarda, written ca. 1180 by an anonymous (French?) canonist. It consists of two parts. The first offers a monograph entitled De presumptionibus and elaborates (or precedes?) on the parallel teachings to be found in the Summa of Sicardus of Cremona (on C.6 q.5). Then follows a rather loose series of brocarda on a variety of legal topics. Due to the miscellaneous character of this second part, the manuscripts often include interpolations and other variations.

Petrus Aretinus (see Gratia Aretinus)
 
 
 
 

Petrus Beneventanus (Collivaccinus), a subdeacon and notary at the Roman curia who in 1210 was commissioned by Pope Innocent III to compile a new collection of papal decretals. This collection received Innocent's authorization and was sent out to the schools, where it circulated under the name of Compilatio tertia. Later on, Innocent III raised Petrus to the cardinalate and made him deacon of S. Maria in Aquiro (1212-16), then priest of S. Laurentius in Damaso (1216), and finally bishop of Sabina (1217). He died in September of 1219 or 1220. The popes entrusted Petrus with important diplomatic missions, including one as a papal legate to the Albigensian territories (1214-15). His early career as a teacher of canon law at Bologna is less well documented. Alfons Stickler has argued that he might have been the author of the decretist Summa Reginensis (ca. 1187/92).

Petrus Blesensis iunior (Peter of Blois), not to be confused with his older and more famous namesake, the archdeacon of Bath, is known for his Distinctiones, which have been edited under the title Speculum iuris canonici. The monograph, composed by Petrus while he was a canon at Chartres (fron 1176 until at least 1181), consists of 60 chapters, each of which treats a legal argument given in the headline. In addition, Petrus used the left and right margins of the text as columns for his allegations (legal references) pro and contra the argument, due to which the treatise serves the purposes of collection of Brocarda as well. A prologue and an index of the chapter also form part of the original text. The opening chapter (1) deserves particular attention, since it presents the most elaborate treatment of the concordance-method since the famous Prologue of Yvo of Chartres. The work shares many characteristics and doctrines with the contemporary Summa Monacensis. Meanwhile, it remains uncertain if Petrus in fact was the author of the Ordo iudiciarius mentioned below.

Petrus Brito, a French decretalist of the early 13th century. Petrus headed a canonistic school at Paris which produced several apparatus on Compilatio prima (see the gloss compositions entitled Quia brevitas amica and Bernardus Papiensis prepositus). Glosses of his own are preserved on Gratian and Compilatio prima. There is also a manuscript (London, Lambeth Palace 105 [second set]), which seems to contain a reportatio of his teachings on Compilatio prima. He died before March 1218.

Petrus Hispanus Portugalensis, taught in Bologna during the 1220's, before he moved to the University of Padua (ca.1229). He composed a collection of notabilia on Compilatio IV, and is probably identical with another Petrus Hispanus who wrote a procedural treatise entitled Ad summariam notitiam. That he was also the author of the Ordo Quia utilissimum previdi fore (1216/34) is less likely, since it cites civilian sources on a massive scale.

Petrus Peverel (Penerelli, Penerchio or similar), author of a Libellus de ordine iudiciorum (inc.: Sapientiam), which Linda Fowler-Magerl dates before Compilatio prima (1191). Carbasse identifies him with a master and canon who between 1207 and 1213 appears in a number of Parisian documents. The same canon was then elected to the episcopal see of Agde. He died not much later.

Philippus, probably the name of the (French?) master whose glosses on the Collectio Cassellana (ca. 1185-87) were signed with the Greek siglum 'Phi' (φ or Φ). More recently, however, Stephan Kuttner has suggested that we may be merely confronted with a distorted 'M.'  Rudolf Weigand conjectured that these glosses could be those of Fidantia.  Peter Landau has examined the glosses and concluded that these glosses might be attributed to an unknown German canonist who worked at the end of the twelfth century.

Philippus (of Aquilea), a rather obscure canonist whose gloss additions (after 1216) to Gratian and the Compilationes antiquae appear in several manuscripts. In 1229, he may have taught at the school of Padua. In his Rosarium (1300), Guido of Baysio referred to Ph. as a pupil of Johannes Teutonicus.

Princivallus Mediolanensis (Percival or Parsifal of Milan), a canon from Monza, lectured on the Decretum at Padua during the late thirteenth century. He wrote a Lectura on Gratian's Decretum which anticipates the Rosarium of Guido de Baysio (1300) in that it adds both old and new interpretations to the standard commentary, the Glossa ordinaria of Johannes Teutonicus and Bartholomaeus Brixiensis.

Quaestiones Bambergenses I, is the title given in the Repertorium to a series of decretist quaestiones, dated ca. 1175-78. They have been analysed by Gerard Fransen, who further subdivided them into three groups of different origin. To avoid confusion, he nevertheless retained the conventional name, perhaps also because they contain material that more or less derives from a common source and school. The same connection also extends to other collections, such as the Queastiones Lipsienses, Palatinae, or Pragenses.

EDITION: Sections I.1, and I.3 have been edited by G. Fransen, Traditio 12 (1956) 566-92; the section I.2 by idem, Traditio 13 (1957) 481-501.

Quaestiones Bambergenses II, called as such in the Repertorium, was analysed by Gerard Fransen in 1956. In the same fashion as he did for Bambergenses I, he further subdivided the material into two groups (II.1, II.2). They all derive, however, from the same canonistic background (see Quaestiones Bambergenses I).

EDITION: G. Fransen, Traditio 13 (1957) 481-501, has described the collection; F. Liotta (1971) 135 n.345, has published questio 6.

Quaestiones Bambergenses III, owes its name, like the preceding collections from the same manuscript, to the Repertorium. Gerard Fransen has discerned four sub-groups (III.1-4). For further details as to the collection's origin, see Quaestiones Bambergenses I.

Three of the quaestiones carry the signature of a certain `Jo.', who may be identifiable with Johannes Garsias (Hispanus). The work further shares some of its material with the Quaestiones Patavinae.

Quaestiones Cusanae I, contain a series of quaestiones on marriage, of which three are singed by Bazianus. It is likely that several others also had been disputed at his school. As Gerard Fransen has shown, they were brought into their final shape before the appearance of Compilatio I (1191). While Alfons Stickler believed that the work cited decretals after Compilatio I, Fransen concluded that all of the references point to an earlier decretal collection called Bambergensis (ca. 1185).

Quaestiones decretales Bambergenses I (see Honorius, Summa quaestionum)



Quaestiones decretales Bambergenses II, consist of rather briefly formulated quaestiones which were compiled some time after Compilatio I (1191). They are transmitted, with due variations, in at least seven manuscripts, of which the Klosterneuburg and Bamberg (also Leon) manuscripts on the one hand, and the Vienna and the Zwettl texts on the other, seem to be related particularly closely.

EDITION: An analysis of the 76 quaestiones in the Zwettl and Vienna manuscripts has been published by G. Fransen, Traditio 19 (1963) 520-30, along with a concordance for the other copies, 530-31. Those texts to be found in Klosterneuburg, Bamberg, and Fulda D.7, and not extant in Zwettl and Vienna have been analysed by G. Fransen, Traditio 20 (1964) 496-502, again with a concordance at the end.

Quaestiones Fuldenses is the name given in the Repertorium to a collection of quaestiones in a Fulda manuscript. Gerard Fransen has demonstrated that it combines a series of texts borrowed from the Quaestiones Bambergenses II group (q.1-32) with a set of quaestiones signed by the Bolognese canonist Tancred (q.33-43). This latter portion shows paralells to the Quaestiones Claustroneoburgenses and Senonenses.

EDITION: An analysis of q.1-32 has been given by G. Fransen, Traditio 19 (1963) 516-31; the same article also includes a concordance of q.33-43 with the collections from Klosterneuburg and Sion (531).

Quaestiones Gratianopolitanae, contain an early collection of canonistic quaestiones which cites only one papal decretal (q.242). This suggests a date well before the appearance of Compilatio I in 1191. Many of the texts include references to the Bolognese civilian Martinus, cited alongside with a certain `Johannes'. A. Belloni has identified him with Johannes Bazianus rather than Johannes Faventinus.

Quaestiones Londinenses, include 58 canonistic quaestiones of English origin, composed ca. 1196-98. The collection represents one of the most important sources for the teaching activities of several English masters (such as Simon of Southwell, Simon of Derby, John of Kent, John of Tynemouth), whose names occur in the discussions and solutions of many of the quaestiones. A reportatio of disputations held by another English canonist, Nicholas (de Aquila) seems to form the core of the material.

Quaestiones Pragenses II, follow immediately after the Pragenses I. According to G. Fransen, they represent a different form of redaction in that they omit for the most part any reference to the underlying case and concentrate on the questio itself. But again, they share much of their material with the Bambergenses III. French in origin.

Quaestiones Sedunenses I contain, according to the description of Alfons Stickler (1958), 29 quaestiones. In an article of 1963, Gerard Fransen seems to have combined this collection with the one immediately following (Sedunenses II). Alfons Stickler reports, however, that references to Compilatio IV are absent from this earlier part, and so is the siglum of the Bolongese canonist Tancred. Instead, the Sedunenses I twice mention a certain `R.' (Ricardus Anglicus) and may therefore derive from his school.

EDITION: None; G. Fransen, Traditio 19 (1963) 521-27, has printed the introductory part of five quaestiones.

Quaestiones Sedunenses II, a Bolognese collection compiled in the 1220's, as is suggested by frequent refrences to Tancred and the use of Compilatio IV. Regarding the Tancred material, the work shows strong paralells to the Quaestiones Claustroneoburgenses and Fuldenses.

Quaestiones Sedunenses III, a Bolognese collection compiled in the 1220's, as is suggested by frequent references to Tancred and the use of Compilatio IV. It remains unclear if the work represents a unit of its own or rather forms a continuation of the former one (Sedunenses II).

Quaestiones Zwettlensis I (see Quaestiones decretales Bambergenses II)





Quaestiones Zwettlensis II, compiled at the school of Vicenza, whence they also appear under the name Vincentinae.

`Radl.' (Radulphus?), magister (see Garinus)





Rainier of Pisa, nothing is known about this thirteenth century canonist other than that he wrote some quaestiones.

TEXTS: Quaestiones

LITERATURE: J. Schulte, QL II 175.

 

Rainier of Pomposa, deacon and monk of the abbey of Pomposa. Rainier compiled his collection of decretals in 1201. It contains 123 chapters taken from letters issued during the first three years of Innocent III's pontificate (1198-1201). Rainier drew directly from the papal registers and arranged his material in 41 titles. They differ considerably from those given in the most important compilation of his days, Compilatio prima.  His work was later used by other decretal compilers, such as Gilbertus (1202) and Alanus (1206).

Raymond des Arènes (Cardinalis) Raimundus de (H)arenis.   A canonist who left numerous glosses on the Decretum signed 'C.' or 'Car.' These glosses are scattered through many early Decretum manuscripts. In the past, Cardinalis has been identified with a certain Hermannus and Magister Hubaldus, but Rudolf Weigand proved conclusively that André Gouron's identification of Raymond des Arènes as Cardinalis was correct.  Raymond was from an important family in Nîmes and first appears in the sources in 1142.  By 1150-1151 he is called a causidicus and iurisperitus.  He is the first canonist who was also very well trained in Roman law.  Several documents indicated that he was active in legal cases from Avignon and Arles.  Between 1149 and 1158 he was a canon of the cathedral chapter of Beauvais.  Pope Hadrian IV raised him to the cardinalate in March, 1158 with the title Cardinal of Santa Maria in Via Lata.  In the schism of 1159 Raymond supported the anti-pope Victor IV.  Reconciled with Pope Alexander III ca. 1162 he moved to Montpellier.  He was involved in a court case at Montpellier in 1171.  He died around 1176-1177 since his cardinal title was bestowed on another person July 4, 1178.

Raymond of Peñafort. (Ramon de Penyafort, Pennaforte), c. 1180-1275. Catalan canon lawyer. After studying, and teaching philosophy, at Barcelona, he went to study law at Bologna sometime between 1210 and 1221. He entered the Dominican order in 1222 after his return to Barcelona. Called to Rome by Gregory IX in 1230, he presided over the commission which compiled the Liber Extra (the authoritative collection of decretals promulgated by the pope in 1234). Returning again to Catalonia, Raymond was confessor to Jaime I of Aragon (1213-76) and prominent in the activities of the Dominican order, of which he was master-general from 1238 to 1240. Thomas Aquinas wrote his Summa contra Gentiles at Raymond's insistence. He was canonised in 1601. Raymond's literary productivity was enormous and so was his success. Besides being commissioned to compile the Decretales Gregorii IX, which were to remain valid church law until 1918, he also had a great influence as the author of a penitential Summa (ca.1222-25/34) and as a leading administrator of his order. A full account of his works would include a large number of minor treatises, many of which were composed after 1234 and outside of the orbit of canon law school. To avoid incompleteness and misattributions, the present survey lists only those titles that have a direct bearing on law. During his brief period as a canonist at Bologna (1218-1221), Raymond wrote a Summa iuris which he never finished. Simultaneously, he lectured on Gratian's Decretum, as is testified by the survival of marginal glosses. There are further glosses on Compilatio IV. After becoming a Dominican, he composed the penitential Summa de casibus. He later revised it. The printed editions regularly added Raymond's Summa de matrimonio (ca. 1235) as Book IV, although the work, consisting of an update of the earlier treatise by the Bolognese canonist Tancred, had circulated separately in medieval manuscripts.

Raynerius de Pisis, a teacher of canon law at Bologna (fl.1285).

Ricardus Anglicus (de Mores), 1161-1242, probably studied (and perhaps taught) law at Lincoln and/or Paris during the 1180's. He taught at Bologna from ca. 1191 to ca. 1202 when he was listed as a canon in the Priory of Merton. From 1202 Ricardus was in the service of Archbishop Hubert Walter of Canterbury along with two other noted canonists, John of Tynemouth and Master Honorius. From 1202 until his death in 1242, Ricardus was prior of Dunstable. Ricardus seems to have been very active in legal matters; Sayers has found forty-eight documents listing him as an officer of the court and Innocent III appointed him judge-delegate in a number of important cases.

Although Ricardus's stay at Bologna was not particularly long, it was very productive. In the years from 1191-1202 Ricardus wrote or revised seven of his eight known works. Johannes Bassianus, a civilian of the 1180's, seems to have had an important influence on Ricardus's work. In his ordo iudiciarius, Ricardus used the `ordo of titles' structure pioneered by Johannes. Also, Ricardus used both Roman and canon law in this work and was later acknowledged by Tancred as having been the first to do so. Ricardus's work seems to have influenced Tancred through the Ordo iudiciarius, and also Laurentius Hispanus, so that he may well have been one of Laurentius's teachers. In fact, Laurentius's first work seems to have been a Distinctiones Decretorum modeled on Ricardus's work, and it is interesting to note that Tancred was Laurentius's student.

2. Ordo iudiciarius EDITION: L. Wahrmund, Quellen zur Geschichte des römisch- kanonischen Prozesses im Mittelalter, II, 3 (Innsbruck 1915) [used manuscripts: Douai, Fulda, Vat. lat., and Vienna]. MANUSCRIPTS: A. Original version: St. Gall Stiftsbibl. 683, fol. 186-271; Vatican City, Vat lat. 2691, fol. 49r-58vb. B. Revised version: Brussels, BR 131-134, fol. 104-110va; Douai, BM 644, fol. 1r-16v; Fulda, LB D7, fol. 1r-24v; Vercelli BCap. 176, fol. 1r-13ra; Vienna, ÖNB 2163, fol. 25r-42rb; Zwettl 162, fol. 83r-93vb. DISCUSSION: According to Fowler-Magerl, Ricardus composed this work in England or in Paris prior to 1190, and then revised it later in Bologna. The two manuscripts which contain this early version have no rubrics and cite decretals from an unknown canonical collection which was organized in titles, but not in books. This is most likely related to the Anglo-Norman `Bamberg Group' of decretal collections. In the later manuscripts, which show different stages of development, the work is revised by the addition of rubrics and by changing the citation of decretals in conformity with Compilatio prima. See Linda Fowler-Magerl, Ordo iudiciorum vel ordo iudiciarius (Ius Commune Sonderheft 19; Frankfurt am Main 1984) 114-119.

MANUSCRIPTS: Monte Cassino 396 pp. 191-247a; Zwettl 162, fol. 179-213r. See Traditio 11 (1955), 448. DISCUSSION: Ricardus likely composed this work in Paris between 1186 and 1187. It bears resemblance to the Anglo-Norman Summa `Omni qui iuste iudicat' and the Summa quaestionum of Master Honorius.

DISCUSSION: At least the version with the Prologue was produced at Bologna between 1196-1198. The version without the prologue may be a first recension which could date back to Ricardus's pre-Bolognese career.

Robert Grosseteste (b. 1168/69), professor of theology at Oxford since the early 1220's and later bishop of Lincoln (1235-53), was the author not only of significant theological and philosophical writings, but also contributed to the penitential literature. These works were the outcome in part of his teaching activities, in part of his administrative duties as a bishop.

Robert of Flamesbury (Robertus Flamesburiensis), a canon of Saint Victor in Paris and died ca. 1224. In his function as penitentiary of the Bishop of Paris, he authored an important confessional handbook, Poenitentiale, which makes constant reference to canonistic matters. Robert's acquaintance with legal doctrine, however, seems to have derived from the commentaries he consulted, above all from Huguccio. The work was finished sometime between 1207-1213.

Rodericus Palentinus (Rodrigo de Palencia), bishop of Palencia (1247-54), had previously studied law at Bologna and become a chaplan at the papal curia (1247). As a magister, Rodericus wrote a treatise de positionum (before 1245), which is very similar to the somewhat later, homonymous work of Martinus de Fano (ed. U. Nicolini, Orbis Romanus 5 [Milan 1935]).

Rodoicus Modicipassus, a Parisian master, whom Robert of Courcon mentioned once as dead in his theological Summa (1204-1207). Around 1200, he still figures among the canons of the espiscopal chapter at Sens. He does not seem to have been associated with Bologna at any time, although his opinions are cited by several Bolognese masters. Of his writings, a number of canonistic quaestioneshas survived. He was probably author of a commentary on Gratian's De consecratione (part III of the Decretum), which in one copy is ascribed to `R. de parui passu'. It became the standard supplement to the apparatus Ius naturale of Alanus Anglicus.

Roffredus Beneventanus, a civilian, studied and taught law at Bologna and Arezzo (1215), then at the newly established University at Naples (since 1224). When Benevent, his hometown, came again under papal influence (1229), he went to Rome and worked at the papal curia. The outcome was a treatise on the procedural practises of the curia (1235/36), in which he tried to outline the canonical rules for his fellow civilians. Roffredus died in Rome soon after 1243.

Rolandus, a canonist who taught at Bologna in the 1150's and 1160's. For a long time, modern scholars have identified him with Rolandus Bandinelli, later Pope Alexander III (1159-81). In truth, both personalities have to be distinguished, since Rolandus continued teaching well into Alexander's pontificate. He composed several versions of a Summa on Gratian's Decretum, called Stroma, and a large number of single glosses. His teachings were further reflected in sets of quaestiones to be associated with his school (see Quaestiones in schola Rolandi disputatae). There also survives from his pen a theological collection of sententie.

TEXTS:1. Stroma EDITION: F. Thaner, Die Summa magistri Rolandi, nachmals Papstes Alexander III (Innsbruck 1874). On the basis of MS Berlin, Savigny 14, and the two Stuttgart manuscripts. R. Weigand, AKKR 149 (1980) 14-22, has noted important variants in the other copies and distinguished five different recensions of the work. MANUSCRIPTS: first recension: Bologna, Archginnasio A 48, fol. 32-60 (contains C.27-C.36). second recension: Berlin, Staatsbibl. lat., fol. 462, fol. 131-46, 87v-88v, 147r-v (contains C.27-C.36); Grenoble, Bibl.

2. Glosses on the Decretum EDITION: R. Weigand, AKKR 149 (1980) 25-32; and again in Miscellanea (1986), has printed many of Roland's glosses from the manuscripts indicated below. Since one of the sigla referring to Rolandus, `R.', coincides with that of his contemporary Rufinus, identification often proves difficult.

Rufinus, fl. 1150-91,  was the major figure at Bologna in the 1150's. He was born in central Italy. He may have been a disciple of Gratian, but he never linked himself directly to the Magister. The exact dates when he taught canon law at Bologna are very uncertain. It was long thought that he became bishop of Assisi but the evidence for that is very tenuous.  He finished his Summa sometime around 1164. We do not know when he died.  As part of Johannes Faventinus's Summa (1171), the work became the most widely circulating decretist commentary prior to 1215. While scholars long believed that it preceded the pontificate of Alexander III (1159-81), the date of composition recently has been moved to 1164 (A. Gouron). Two of his theological writings also survive, a treatise on peace (ca. 1180-1186) and a collection of sermons.   It was long believed that he preached the openning sermon at the Third Lateran Council but the evidence for this attribution is slim.

Servus appellatur, an apparatus on Compilatio III, was written prior to 1215. Franz Gillmann, who first discovered and described the work, attributed it to Laurentius Hispanus. It consists, however, of excerpts from many contemporary canonists, compiled by an anonymous author.

Si persistant in contumacia (see Damasus)


Sicardus Cremonensis (ca.1155-1215), taught at Bologna and in France during the 1170's, before he received a prebend at Mayence (Germany), in 1180. After moving to Rome (1183), he eventually abandoned teaching when he was elected bishop of Cremona in 1185. Sicardus is best known for his world-chronicle, but also wrote mythological, liturgical, and canonistic treatises. To the latter category belongs his Summa on Gratian's Decretum (ca. 1177-79). The work is significant in particular for his method, since it favors didactical and systematic elements at the expense of the explanatory ones. As a result, Sicardus's treatment often follows the format of quaestiones or distinctiones rather than that of a commentary in the proper sense. He always observes, however, the order of the Decretum. Sicardus further added an Apologia, an epilogue to his work (ca. 1183).

Silvester Hispanus (Godinho), a Portuguese, was a Bolgonese canonist who commented on Gratian and the first two Compilationes antiquae. He also wrote an apparatus on Pastoralis officii, issued by Pope Innocent III to instruct the schools on various aspects of delegate procedure (1204). It is the first full apparatus on a single papal document. In 1229, Pope Gregory IX appointed Silvester archbishop of Braga. He died in Italy in 1244. Besides numerous glosses bearing his siglum, 'sil.', we have indirect information about him from his students, of whom Tancred became the most famous.

Simon of Apulia, an English master of canon law, dean and chancellor of York (1190-1213), and later bishop of Exeter (1213-1224). It is possible that he wrote a canonistic Summa, since a 'Summa magistri Symonis de Apuleya' appears in the fourteenth-century book-inventory of Lanthony Priory (Gloucestershire). The work, however, seems to be lost.

Simon of Sywell (Southwell), a master of the English canon law school, probably at Oxford, during the 1190's. Some of his teachings are reported, along with those of other English masters such as John of Tynemouth, in a manuscript of the Decretum at Cambridge, Gonville and Caius 676. He probably had taught before at Bologna for some time, and may further be identical with 'magister si.', frequently cited in the Quaestiones Londinenses. Simon also produced glosses on an abbreviated version of the sentences of Peter of Poitiers. He held a prebend at Lincoln chapter before he became treasurer of Lichfield in 1202.

Sive mente excedimus (see Ecce vicit leo)


Stephanus Bonerius (Bonnier; Provincialis), a canon at Narbonne, was active at the Roman Curia as doctor decretorum, until he went to Bologna to teach Gratian's Decretum in 1290. After teaching there for 7 years, he returned to Rome and died in 1298.

Stephanus Tornacensis (Etienne de Tournai), born 1128 and canon at St. Euverte in Orleans since 1155, around 1160 went to Bologna to study canon law. A few glosses of his on the Decretumsurvive from this early period, most of which are signed 'S.' Before he returned to his native France to become abbot of St. Euverte in 1167, he completed his decretist Summa (1165/66), which became the basic canonistic commentary for the emerging French school. Therefore, he is often considered the founder of the transalpine decretist schools. Despite his ecclesiastical career, Stephan continued to write decretist glosses well into the 1170's. The other writings of Stephan rather focused on the pastoral and diplomatic duties of his later ecclesiastical career. After a decade at Orleans, he became abbot of Ste. Geneviève in Paris (1177), before he was finally appointed bishop of Tournay (1192) by Pope Celestine III. From that period collections of his sermons and his letters survive. As Rudolf Weigand has shown, Stephan also continued to write glosses (siglum 'st<e>.') on the Decretum well into the 1170's, long after he had left Bologna and assumed the responsibilites of an abbot. He died in 1203.

Kuttner, Traditio 14 (1958) 502-5, has shown, Stephan never commented on this section. H. Kalb (1983) 113-120, has offered a critical edition of Stephan's prologue.

Summa Actor et reus, the title given by L. Wahrmund to a procedural treatise, written during the pontificate of Gregory IX (1227-1241). It enjoyed wide distribution and was originally combined from two earlier ordines, Quidam impetravit litteras and Nos petimus. Stephan Kuttner has associated these two with the Anglo-Norman school of canon law and dated them around 1200.

Summa ad iniungendam penitentiam, a brief confessional manual by an author who identifies himself as 'Richardus' in the prologue. He designed the work as a guide for theologians. In the manuscript from Kynzwart, it appears appended to the Decretum versificatum of Werner of Schussenried (Suebia), which was completed in 1207. The Summa was probably written not much later. Since it once refers to the penitential Summa of Peter of Capua, moreover, it must have been written after 1201/2. An abbreviated version of Richardus's treatise later circulated as the Summa Pseudo-Prepositini.

Summa Animal est substantia (Bambergensis), an anonymous French apparatus on the Decretum. It was composed ca. 1206-10 and reveals a strong interest in the doctrines of Roman law. The designation as a Summa is traditional ever since Schulte discovered the work the Bamberg MS, but the MSS found more recently rather transmit is as an apparatus, i.e. together with the text of Gratian's Decretum. A. Stickler has further indicated that the work is closely related to the Glossa Cusana.

Summa Antiquitate et tempore, a Summa on part I of the Decretum, which was composed by a French master of the Arts during the 1170's. It contains references suggesting that the author taught at Cologne for some time. He also wrote Notule super libello de signficationibus uerborum, which, however, have not yet been found. The Summa probably never covered more than D.1-101 of Gratian's work. The Mainz and Vatican MSS include only D.1-10 of Antiquitate et tempore, and preserve for the rest of part I an adaptation of Rufin's Summa and Antiquitate et tempore, the so-called Pseudo-Rufinus.

EDITION: In part by J. F. v. Schulte, Die Summa magistri Rufini zum Decretum Gratiani (Giessen 1892), who mistook the text in MS Göttingen for the commentary of Rufinus. The error was discovered by Tanon (1888) and Singer (1895), who also printed numerous excerpts.

Summa Casinensis (Continuatio prima). This decretist commentary, written at Bologna in 1185/86, was discovered by Stephan Kuttner in a Monte Cassino manuscript, where it covers Gratian's Causa1, Causa 23-26 (the so-called Cause hereticorum) and (fragmentary) De consecratione. Its anonymous author claims to have commented on other parts of the Decretum as well, yet it remains uncertain whether any of them survives. Perhaps, the fragmentary decretist comment in an Aschaffenburg MS (Perg. 26, fol. 218ra-227rb) belongs to the Summa Casinensis. The work gained importance not so much by itself, but due to the fact that it came to serve as the standard supplementary text for the unfinished parts of Huguccio's widely read Summa, from C.23 q.4 c.34 to C.26. It completes Huguccio's commentary in 12 copies, whence medieval authors often attributed it to Huguccio himself. Modern students have instead described it as a Continuatio of Huguccio's work. However, a closer look at the Summa Casinensis suggests that the author based his work on a reportatio of Bazianus' lectures rather than on those of Huguccio. Concerning the identity of the canonist who composed the work, the text contains many references to Southern Italy, especially Campania. The same is evident in a contemporary decretist writing, the Summa Reginensis, so that it may reflect the predilections of a teacher they had in common.

Summa Coloniensis (see Summa Elegantius in iure diuino)


Summa Conditio ecclesiastice religionis (Pseudo-Rufinus) consists of a comment on part II-III of Gratian's work, which is basically copied out of Rufin's Summa. This misled Schulte, who provided an edition of Rufinus (1892), as he believed, on the basis of the Summa Conditio. The excerpts were written either before the appearance of the Summa of Johannes Faventinus (1171) or not much later.

Summa Duacensis (Induent sancti), and Anglo-Norman Summa on the Decretum, written after the appearance of Compilatio I, which it usually cites for extravagantes.

Summa Elegantius in iure diuino (or Coloniensis), contains a commentary on part I-II of Gratian's Decretum which was composed in the archdiocese of Cologne in 1169. The anonymous author, according to some Betram of Metz, according to others Geoffrey of Cologne, belonged to the French school and introduced a methodological novelty in that he included a paraphrase of all those of Gratian's canons he discussed. Although he followed the argument as given in the Decretum, he further rearranged it in an order of his own.

Summa Elnonensis, a French commentary on Gratian's treatment of procedure (C.2-6), written after the appearance of the Summa of Stephan of Tournai (ca. 1165/66) and probably before the Summa Parisiensis (1170?). The work repeteadly mentions opinions held by a certain 'm(agister) ge.', who may have been the author himself. Gerard Fransen has tentatively suggested his identity with Gerard Pucelle.

Summa Fecit Moyses tabernaculum, a commentary on De consecratione, which appears appended to the Summa of Stephan of Tournai in three manuscripts. For that reason, scholars have long mistaken it as part of Stephan's work. In truth, it was written independently and probably dates around 1165.   Peter Landau argues that it belongs to the School of Cologne

Summa Monacensis (Inperatorie maiestati), a French decretist Summa, written ca. 1175-1178. The work constantly employs distinctions as an explanatory tool, a technique later again adopted by Sicardus of Cremona. While it was formerly thought that the work had originated from Carinthia, far away from the centers of canonistic learning, W. Stelzer has demonstrated that only the copy now in Munich can be associated with that region and the Carinthian native Konrad of Albeck, provost at Brixen (ca. 1173-1183/85).

Summa Paris, MS B.N. lat. 15397, contains a decretist commentary covering C.1, C.23-26. It supplements Huguccio Summa, which omits the same sections. As a result, nothing can be said about the original format of the anonymous work. It was composed ca. 1174-79, most likely at Bologna. Method and style are reminiscent of Bazianus, with a focus on literal exposition and very few legal references.

LITERATURE: see above, vol. 2, ch. Huguccio.


Summa Parisiensis ('Magister Gratianus in hoc opere') is one of the earliest decretist works of the French school. The editor, McLaughlin, dates it around 1160, Kuttner shortly before 1170. The recent revision of the dates for Rufin's and Stephan's Summae (now mid 1160's), both sources of the Summa Parisiensis, speaks in favor of the latter assumption.

Summa Posnaniensis (see William of Gascony)


Summa Prima primi uxor Ade, of Anglo-Norman origin, depends heavily on Huguccio. The text omits C.1, De pen., and De cons., and cites recent papal decretals after Compilatio I (1191). It certainly precedes Compilatio III (1210). There is a close dependency on two other Anglo-Norman commentaries on the Decretum, the Summa Duacensis and, indirectly, the Summa Quamvis leges seculares.

DATE/PLACE: post 1203?

Summa Quamuis leges seculares, an Anglo-Norman Summa composed during the 1190's, probably not much after Compilatio I. It served as a source for the Summa Duacensis and, indirectly, the Summa Prima primi. The work is also one of the oldest testimonies to the use of Huguccio' commentary in the Northern schools.

Summa Quaestio si iure naturali, from the French school, offers a collection of explanations to the Decretum, which are often presented in the form of quaestiones. They either excerpted from the Summa Monacensis or drawn from a common source. Accordingly, the work was composed in the same time period (1175-78).

Summa Reginensis, a Bolognese commentary on the Decretum. The drafting obviously took several years. For the first part, chronological indications do not go beyond the pontificate of Urban III (1185-87), while the latter section (C.27 ff.) cites decretals after Compilatio I (1191). The anonymous author (Petrus Beneventanus?) is obviously influenced by Huguccio, but often proposes doctrinal positions of his own.

Tancred (of Bologna: Tancredus Bononiensis), ca. 1185-1236, the leading decretalist of his age. Taught canon law at Bologna since approximately 1210, where he was also canon and archdeacon of the local chapter. His Apparatus to Compilationes prima, secunda, tertia, the final versions of which he produced around 1220, were received as the ordinary Glosses in the schools. Tancred also compiled the Compilatio quinta at the behest of Pope Honorius III in 1226. He was equally successful as the author of several minor, mostly procedural, works, which he later combined into his widely circulating Ordo (ca. 1216).

Thomas de Chabham (Cobham?), was a master of theology at Paris before he returned to his native England in 1214 to become a canon of the episcopal chapter at Salisbury. There he wrote a penitential Summa, that was often to be misattributed to Pope Innocent (III?), Hrabanus Maurus, and others during the later Middle Ages.

Transformatio Decreti (See Laborans)


Transformatio Decreti Londinensis, an early rearrangement of Gratian's textbook, which adds other canonical material and subdivides it into ten books and 122 distinctions.

LITERATURE: S. Kuttner, Repertorium 269-70.


Transformatio Decreti Oxoniensis offers, for the most part, a copy of the Decretum. It distinguishes Gratian's own dicta from the canonical chapters of the Decretum in that it relegates the former into the margin. The text is further preceded by material of partly different origin, which has been grouped in 37 distinctiones. Significantly, the first deals, unlike Gratian, with the primacy of the Roman bishop.

Ugolinus de Sesso, an Italian born in Sesso (near Reggio Emilia), received his canonistic training at Bologna during the 1180's, where Huguccio and Bazianus were his principal teachers. The latter he seems to have identified with the Roman lawyer Johannes Bazianus. After leaving Bologna for brief stays at Cremona and Montpellier, he eventually appeared as the head of the first school of canon law on Spanish soil, at Palencia. Linda Fowler-Magerl (1984) has attributed to him three lectures from that period, preserved in a Barcelona manuscript which usually had been ascribed to the more famous civilian Ugolinus de Presbyteris. They all treat procedural aspects, appeals, the recusation of judges, and witnesses. Ugolinus composed them at some time after the death of Pope Gregory VIII (Dec. 1187) and 1200. Perhaps it is also possible to identify Ugolinus with the later, homonymous bishop of Vercelli (1214-1235).

Uguccione Borromei, see Huguccione Vercellensis (da Borromei)


Ulrich, provost at the chapter of Völkermarkt since 1233 and archdeacon of Carinthia from 1246 until his death, c.1266, compiled excerpts (flores) from the Decretales Gregorii (after 1241), which he later reworked into a versified abbreviation (1251). He also produced a collection of excerpts drawn from the Summa titulorum of Bernardus of Parma (1251), and another one based on the Novelle of Pope Innocent IV (1251-53).

Vacarius (ca. 1115/20-1205), an Italian jurist and theologian, received his training as a civilian at Bologna during the early 1140's. He then went to England and served in the household of various ecclesiastical dignitaries, such as the archbishops of Canterbury (ca. 1145) and York (since ca. 1159). He also was active as papal judge-delegate in English affairs. His literary production, however, turned out to be most important and lasting. Through his Liber pauperum (ca. 1170), a textbook that epitomized the Digest and the Codex for the use of English students, he provided the basis for scientific legal studies in England. He later added an Apparatus of glosses to it, derived largely from the teachings of the four Bolognese doctors. Vacarius also produced several theological treatises, De assumpto homine and a Liber contra multiplices et varios errores, the latter of which betrays a curious disregard for recent canonistic doctrine. Vacarius instead preferred to draw his legal arguments from civilian sources. In a similar fashion, his Summa de matrimonio, which one would expect to be a topic of canon law, instead discusses marriage law mostly on the basis of Roman legal concepts. The only decretist work consulted by Vacarius seems to have been the Summa of Rufinus (ca. 1165).

'Videndum est quid sit matrimonium uberliefert...' (see under Marriage Tract:)


Vincentius Hispanus, a Portugese, was eminent among the Bolognese decretalist from the 1210's onwards. He composed gloss apparatuses on several of the Compilationes antiquae (ca. 1210-15), the constitutions of the Fourth Lateran Council of 1215, and wrote various minor works. He received the bishopric of Idanha-Guarda (Portugal) in 1226, but continued to be active as a canonistic author, as is evident from his apparatus on the Liber extra, the oldest commentary (ca. 1234-43) on the new legislation of Gregory IX. His participation in the Council of Lyons (1245) is certain, which rules out his identification, formerly proposed, with the homonymous bishop of Zaragoza (d. 1244). Vincentius died in 1248.
