Albericus Metensis (also Alberico di Metz; de Metis; Metonensis;
Ultramontanus; Albéric; etc.). He was born in Metz, probably around 1280. A. spent some
time in Paris, but we do not know if he studied, taught law or simply lived there for a
while. He was rector of the University of Orléans by 1315-1316, but in 1316 he moved to Nevers with other professors and students. A. was professor utriusque iuris and
held a series of other ecclesiastical positions. In 1316 he was named a canon in Metz;
some years later he became archdeacon, a position which he held until 1352. By 1323 A. was
a papal chaplain and auditor. Around the same time he produced his only known legal work,
an Apparatus on the Clementines, which was among the first works on this new
collection (1317). In 1331 A. became a canon in Reims. He probably died in 1354.

Alberico da Rosate (also de Rosciate). Born in Rosciate, near Bergamo, around 1290. He studied in Padua under Oldradus da Ponte and Riccardus Malumbra. He studied also under Ranieri di Forlì and received advice and help from Bartolo da Sassoferrato. In the second decade of 1300 he came back to Bergamo: there he practised - but never taught - law and was actively involved in the civil life of his city, particularly as reformer of the statutes (in 1331 and 1333) and as ambassador to the papal court in Avignon (in 1335, 1337-38 and 1340-41). He died in Bergamo in 1360.

Alberto Belli (de Bellis), a Perugian, studied the laws there and first appeared among the teachers in 1472. The following year, he moved to Pisa, to lecture on canon law, but stayed there only for a year. Since 1474 until his early death in 1482, he taught at Ferrara. Although Diplovatatius asserts that he also left other legal works `not to be despised', only a few civilian repetitiones are known to have survived.

Alexander de Nevo (ca. 1419-1485). Originally from Vicenza, Alexander studied probably in Padua. After receiving his degree he taught privatly in Vicenza. In 1456 he began to teach in Padua until 1484, when he went back to his hometown. There he died in 1485. He was also iudex apostolicus, author of numerous consilia and editor of canonistic works, including Gratian's Decretum, which he had printed in Venice in 1474, under the title Decreti Gratiani cum Bartholomei Brixiensis glossa editio. A. also published (ca. 1480) the Tractatus de legitimatione emendatior of Antonii Roselli (d.1466).

Alexander Tartagnus (b. 1423/24 in Imola, d. 1477 in Bologna). He studied in Bologna under Johannes de Imola, Johannes de Anania, Angelus Aretinus and Paulus de Castro; there he obtained his doctorate in Civil Law in 1445. He began his activity as a professor of law around 1450, taught, perhaps, in Pavia (1449-50) and, certainly, in Ferrara (1457-58, 1460-61), Padua (maybe in 1459 and, without any doubt, from 1467 to 1470) and Bologna (1461-67 and 1470-77). As his literary production indicates, his interests were chiefly in matters of civil law, although A. also wrote a few comments on Liber Extra. He died there in 1477. Among his students we can find Jason, Bartholus Socinus, Bologninus and Lancellottus Decius.

Alvarus Pelagius, better known for his accomplishments as a theological writer and papal polemicist, had according to his own assertions studied canon law at Bologna under Guido de Baysio (fl. 1300). Guido in turn referred to him once as decretorum doctor. He began teaching at Bologna in the first years of the thirteenth century and participated in several disputations, as Johannes Andreae remarked in his Novelle on Liber extra and the Sextus. None of these Questiones, however, have been found. However, there may survive a treatise of his on sacrilege. In 1304, Alvaro renounced his benefices and entered the spiritual wing of the Franciscans. As a staunch defender of the papacy against Louis of Bavaria, he became a close advisor of Pope John XXII. In 1333, received the bishopric of Silves in his native Portugal. He died in 1349.

Andrea de' Guatari Benzi was born at Siena in 1410 and studied the laws at Bologna, receiving the doctorate in 1430. After serving as podestà at Mantua (1439), he began to teach law, first at Bologna (since 1443). He lectured on canon law there, 1444-46, and then transferred to Florence (1447-50), Ferrara (1450-58) and again Bologna (1459-61). In 1461, Pope Pius II appointed him curial advocate. He died in 1471. His surving lecture materials, largely unstudied, seem to bear on civil law only.

Andreas Barbatius (also Andreas Siculus, Andrea Barbazza, Andreas Bartholomaei de Sicilia, etc.) was born in Messina between 1400 and 1410. Around 1430, he went to Bologna where he began to study medicine and, later, law. Johannes de Imola, Baptista de Sancto Pedro and, perhaps, Giovanni di Anagni where his teachers. A. obtained his doctorate in canon law in 1439, but was already teaching by 1438. In 1445, Nicholas II of Ferrara called him to teach canon law there. He remained until 1446, when he returned to Bologna, which, by 1442, had granted him citizenship. A. thus became the head of a new Bolognese family of enduring fame. Its palace still survives today, facing Via Garibaldi. A. taught both civil and canon law at Bologna until 1478. Among Andreas's students were Antonio Corsetto (Corsetti), Rodrigo Borgia (later pope Alexander VI), Bartholomaeus Socinus, and Hippolytus de Marsiliis. Besides his work as teacher A. also participated in legal proceedings and wrote Consilia for his clients, among which we can number pope Paul II and King Ferdinand of Aragon. A. died at Bologna in 1479.

Andreas de Escobar, born at Lisbon in 1348, joined first the Dominicans, then (1399) the Augustinians, and finally became a Benedictine monk. In 1393, he obtained his doctorate in theology at Vienna and was later made proctor of the Duke of Austria at the papal curia, where he also served a papal penitentiary. He wrote several treatises on practical and pastoral matters such as confession and the payment of tithes. He further wrote a pamphlet concerning the agenda and organization of the Council of Basel, which he dedicated to the presiding Cardinal Giuliano Cesarini (1431). But towards the end of his very long life (d. 1448), he complained that he was never properly rewarded for his academic efforts. His income as bishop of Ciudad Rodrigo (since 1408), then Ajaccio (1422), and finally Megara (1428) was obviously low. His manuals on confession, however, eventually became a tremendous success.

Angelo Carletti da Chiavasso (d.1495), a Franciscan observant from Milan who spent much of his life as the vicar general of the order at the papal curia, wrote a widely circulating penitential Summa. His main sources were the works of his equally successful predecessors, Bartholomaeus de San Concordo (Summa Pisana) and Monaldus (Monaldina). Martin Luther burnt an exemplar of the Summa, which he called Diabolica, in a protest against catholic penitential discipline in 1520. A. also wrote a Consilium condemning the Monte dell doti of Florence and another supporting it.

Angelo da Castro (c. 1410-1485). After studying in Padua he received his doctorate there in utroque iure in 1436. Since 1437, A. was teaching Roman Law in Bologna, but already a year later he began to participate in academic activities at the University of Padua. In 1439, he became professor of Canon Law. He continued to teach law, mostly in Padua, until his death, but was also occasionally employed in Rome, Bologna and other Italian cities. Thus he spent some time in Rome as a consistorial advocat. Besides his activity as a teacher, A. participated often in the life of the city of Padua as judge and lawyer. He died in Padua in 1485.

Antoninus of Florence (1389-1459), a Florentine Dominican from the Forciglione family, became archbishop of Florence in 1446. He was the author of many, mostly theological, works of tremendous influence, which were soon to be translated into Italian and also circulated in various adaptations. Among these writings, a manual on confession became the most popular. Antoninus was canonized in 1523.

Antonio Capodilista (also de Capiteliste, Capilistius, Caodelista) (1420-1489). A. pursued a career in the Church and held the office of of an apostolic protonotary and rector of the Churches of San Giacomo in Padua, San Floriano in Marostica, and San Giorgio in Campretto before beginning the study of law by the early 1440's. A. studied first civil law and then canon law. In 1445 he received a doctorate in both laws. Since 1445 he taught canon law at Padua. There he also carried out his activities as canon and lawyer. A. died in Padua, his hometown, in 1489.

Antonio Cocchi (de Cocchis) Donati was born at Florence in 1450. He studied law at Siena and Perugia, before he became doctor of civil law in 1473. His career as a teacher of canon and, occasionally Roman, law began at Pisa the same year, only to be terminated by his death in 1491. Unlike many of his colleagues, he never aspired an office in communal administration and was fully devoted to academic affairs. The number of his writings seems rather limited, but still awaits full investigation.

He received a doctorate in both laws in 1479 and lectured on canon law until 1487, when he transferred to Padua. There he produced most of his writings, which abound in scholarly annotations considered too bulky and old fashioned by some of his contemporaries. Pope Alexander VI nevertheless made him judge of the Roman Rota(1500). A year later, the Spanish king elevated him to the bishopric of Malta, but he never took possession of it. He died c. 1503.

Antonius Franciscus de Doctoribus (Antonio Francesco Dottori) (1442-1528). He was teaching civil law at Padua around 1464 and received his doctorate in the following year. Probably by 1472, he taught canon law there as well, and continued lecturing through the 1470's. Between 1480-82, he briefly joined the studium at Ferrara, but seems to have returned to his hometown by 1485. In 1488, he obtained the chair of 'secundus locus ordinarius iuris canonici', which he held until 1498 when Bertuccio Bagarotti took his place. In the following years he taught alternatively civil and canon law. During the war of the league of Cambrai, he was put first into prison and then interned by the city from 1513 to 1517, accused of having supported the Emperor Maximilian, before he was finally reinstated. Antonio died in 1528. Throughout his life he played an active part in the communal life of Padua as a lawyer and consultant.

Antonio de Gentilibus, born at Tortona, received his doctorate in civil law at Pavia in 1398. Baldus was one of his examiners. He later became a member of the delegation sent by the Duke of Milan to the Council of Constance (1414-18) which indicates the high reputation he must have enjoyed in his native region as a professor of law. Information about his canonistic teaching survives for the years 1431-32, when he lectured on the Liber sextus and the Clementine at the University of Pavia. The following year (1432-33) he failed to appear personally in class, although he had been hired to teach again. Ill health probably accounted for his absence, since the records of the University refer to him as dead ('quondam dominus Antonius') in 1434.

Antonius de Butrio (Antonio da Budrio). Born ca. 1338 as a Bolognese citizen, Antonius studied canon law in Bologna under Petrus de Ancarano. He received a doctorate in civil law in 1384, and one in canon law in 1387. Celebrated primarily as a teacher of law, his juristic writings received a mixed and often negative treatment from later jurists. From 1387 until his death in 1408, Antonius migrated frequently to teaching positions in Bologna, Perugia, Florence and Ferrara. In 1406/07 Antonius took part in a papal mission to the antipope Benedict XIII in an attempt to resolve the schism through the uia cessionis. His most important students were Johannes de Imola and Dominicus de Sancto Geminiano.

Antonius de Forciglione (see Antoninus of Florence)
Antonius de Naseriis (1341-1393), born 1341 in Padua, he studied canon law there, before he was elected Bishop of Feltre and Belluno in 1369. He continued, however, to devote his time to studying. During his last years, he taught at Paduam first the artes (1386-90), and finally on the decretals. He died in 1393.

Antonius de Rosellis, born in Arezzo in 1381, probably studied law at Bologna and received his doctorate there in 1407. In the same year he began teaching civil law. Afterwards he taught at Siena and at Florence; in Siena he had Aeneas Sylvius Piccolomini as his student. He was called to Rome by Pope Martin V to be a consistorial advocate, where he also served the Emperor Sigismund, the King of Naples, the College of Cardinals and pope Eugenius IV. He left Rome in 1438, once his anti-papal treatise, Monarchia, had made his position appear precarious. He became a Professor of canon law at Padua unti his retirement shortly after 1460. A. died in Padua in 1466.

Arnoldus Gheyloven (also Arnoul Thierry). (c. 1375/1420) was born in Rotterdam (The Netherlands). He studied liberal arts in Vienna, and canon law in Bologna and Padua. Around 1407 he joined the regular canons of the Windesheim monastery at Groenendaal near Brussels. He composed c. 30 works, among which the Gnotosolitos parvus ('Small Know Yourself'), which text has been preserved in one single manuscript (Liège, Bibliothèque du Grand Séminaire 6 F 18). Gheyloven wrote this text for students, preparing themselves for the priesthood in a paedagogium at Louvain or with the Brethren of the Common Life in Deventer.

Augustin Bero (Beroius, Berous). A. was born in 1474 at Bologna. He may have studied Roman law under Marianus Socinus the old and Carolus Ruinus; he certainly studied canon and civil law respectively under Florianus Dolfi and Bonifacius Fantuzzi. A. obtained his doctorate in utroque iure in 1503. In 1504 he became professor in Bologna and taught Roman law during the three following years; then he began teching canon law and carried out this activity until his death in 1554. He was also named monarcha legum. He found support in Popes Julius II and Julius III and was often employed as a consultant by princes. Gianangelo de Medici (Pope Pius IV), Hugo Boncampagni (Gregorius XIII) and the Bishop Paulus Baralio of Arezzo were among A.'s most famous students.

Azo de Ramenghis (d. 1346), a son-in-law of Johannes Andreae, taught at Bologna in 1339. He was also involved in the public life of Bologna as an ambassador for the city. He died in 1346. Often, his siglum is taken for that of the well-known civilian or of the canonist Azo de Lambertaciis, in what makes the identification of his writings difficult.

Bagarotus (see Bertuccio Bagarotti)
Baldassare Castelli (de Castello), born at Bologna, became a canon of S. Pietro there in 1451. He began to teach on the decretals the following year, although he did not obtain a doctorate until 1453. To his academic duties, he added the vicariate of the archdeacon of Bologna in 1459. Only for the years 1463-65 and 1466-1475, he appears to have been absent from the Bolognese studium. He died in 1484, without having produced, as it seems, any academic writings.

Baldus de Ubaldis (Baldus de Perusio, Baldo degli Ubaldi), lived from c. 1327-1400. Baldus, one of the most famous jurists of the Middle Ages, began his studies in his hometown, Perugia. He later went to Pisa, where Bartolus of Sassoferrato was among his teachers in Roman law, and Federicus Petruccius in canon law. The date of Baldus's his doctorate is unknown, but from as early as 1351 we find him as a professor of law at Perugia. Between 1357-58, he was probably at Pisa; 1359-64 at Florence; 1365-76 at Perugia; 1376-79 at Padua; 1379-90 again at Perugia; and 1390-1400 at Pavia where he also held a canon law chair at least from 1395-96. Among Baldus's students were Pierre Roger de Beaufort (Pope Gregory XI) and the jurists Petrus de Ancharano and Paulus de Castro.
In addition to teaching law, Baldus took an active role in political affairs. While at Perugia, he was employed as the advocate of the merchant's guild, held public offices and served on diplomatic missions. After the death of his teacher Bartolus in 1357, Baldus was the most renowned jurist in Europe.
As a canonist, Baldus wrote an incomplete commentary on the Decretales, as well as short works on Liber sextus, and the Clementines. He composed a Margarita to Innocent IV's commentary on the Decretales, Additiones to Guilelmus Durantis's Speculum iudiciale. Baldus wrote a variety of small treatises, but a number of treatises bearing his name are not his work. Baldus also wrote approximately 2,500 Consilia on problems ranging from simple commercial disputes to major political issues such as the Great Schism.

9. Consilia: Baldus many consilia enjoy a complex history. Manuscript evidence indicates that Baldus revised some of them years after he first drafted them. The history of the printed editions have compounded the problem by printing consilia from different periods in his life. The two earliest editions, Brescia (1490-91) and Venice (1491), seem to derive from earlier versions, while the Milan edition (dated 1489-93, though Pennington has proven that it must have been printed after the Brescia and Venice editions) and all subsequent editions derive from manuscripts which were passed on to a certain Savelli and seem to be from a later period. These editions have many different consilia than in the Brescia/Venice group and are ordered differently. Obviously, a very considerable amount of research needs to be done with the manuscripts of Baldus's consilia as well as the early printed editions to understand their development and meaning. See Pennington, `Consilia', for a more extensive discussion of these problems. Early Printed Editions: Partes consiliorum I-V (Brescia 1490-91); Partes consiliorum I-V (Venice 1491); Partes consiliorum I-V(Milan 1489-1493?); also Lyons 1543; Leiden 1559; Venice 1575 (repr.

Bartholomaeus Caepolla (Cipolla). Born at Verona, c. 1420, B. began his juridical studies at Bologna under the civilians Floriano da San Pietro and Angelo Gambiglioni d'Arezzo, and the canonist Giovanni d'Anania. Therafter, he moved to Padua where he studied under Paolo da Castro, Francesco Capodilista and Iacopo Alvarotti. He obtained his doctorate at Padua in 1445 in utroque iure. Since then he lectured as a professor of civil law. In 1449-50, he taught at Ferrara, but he soon moved to his native city. In Verona he took an active role in civic affairs and practiced law. In 1458 he returned to teach in Padua, at first alternatively canon and civil law, then civil law only (since 1470). By 1459 he was named a consistorial advocate. B. was also an official representative of the Venetian governement to the Diet of Regensburg. He abandoned teaching in 1475 to be replaced by Antonio Francesco Dottori and died at Padua in the same year.

Bartolomeo Sozzini (Socinus), the son of Marianus senior and uncle of Marianus iunior (1482-1556), both renowned jurists, was born at Siena in 1436. B. studied in Siena under his father and Tommaso Decio; he studied also at Bologna under Alexander Tartagnus and Andreas Barbatius, and at Pisa under Francesco Accolti d'Arezzo. He began teaching in Siena where he read canon law in 1471. In that year he moved to Ferrara where he taught until 1473. During those years 1471-73, B. held disputations at Padua, Pavia and Turin. Then he moved to Pisa, where he lived until 1494, and then on to Bologna, where he lived from 1496 to 1498. Thereafter, he accepted a position as teacher of civil law at the University of Padua for three years. In 1501, he returned, imporverished, to Siena, where he died in 1507. His unsteady life and character made him one of the great Renaissance figures of the legal profession. His writings, though in large part civilian, occasionally touch upon matters of canon law, especially in his consilia and questiones.

Benedict XIII (Petrus de Luna) was the last Avignonese pope during the Great Schism (1394-1417). Born in Aragón, ca. 1342/43, Petrus had studied canon law at Montpellier since 1361 and is said to have lectured there on the Decretum in the 1370's. In 1375, he was made cardinal, whence he played a prominent part in the turbulent papal elections of 1378. His juridical training is reflected in his writings as a cardinal and pope, which altogether defend the position of the Avignonese papacy. Petrus died in 1422. A treatise of the thirteenth century had been attributed to him (Stella clericorum), but Eric H. Reiter has proven that this work cannot be Petrus de Luna's (For bibliographical reference to Reiter's work, see Pedro Fernández de Villegas, below)

Benedictus Capra (de Benedictis) was born at Perugia in the 1390's. Little is known about his legal studies, and he first appears as a judge of his native commune in 1420. Most likely, he studied under Johannes de Imola at Bologna, whom he once mentioned as his teacher. He himself began to lecture at Perugia in 1422, first on the Liber sextus, since 1438 until his death (1470) on the Decretales (X). During these almost fifty years, produced a vast literature, including several revisions of his Lecture. His numerous consilia, moreover, reveal his involvement in the civic affairs of his hometown. By the end of his life, he was not only among the most famous jurists of Italy, but had also become one of the wealthiest citizens of Perugia.

Bérenger de Frédol (Berengarus Fredoli) B. was born at Lavérune (Hérault). Since Guilelmus de Mandagoto mentions him as his teacher, he must have spent some of his earlier years as a teacher of canon law at Bologna. His most important student was Guielmus de Mandagato. B. also seems to have taught at Paris. He received the bishopric of Beziers in 1294. From there he embarked on an ecclesiastical career and soon became an important curial official. Another indication of an earlier legal training, B. was one of the editors of the Liber sextus (1298). He was later elevated to the cardinalate by Clement V in 1305 and promoted Cardinal bishop of Tusculum in 1309. During the pontificate of Clement V, B. was deeply involved in the proceedings against the Templars. He died at Avignon in 1323.

Bernardus Guidonis, born in the diocese of Limoges, ca. 1261-62, entered the Dominican order in 1279 and served as the prior of several convents in the region. From 1306-24, he was inquisitorial judge in Toulouse, where he gained many insights into the practical aspects of contemporary judicial practice. His handbook for inquisitors reflects that experience. He also held high positions as the representative of his order in Rome. In 1324, he became bishop of Tuy, later of Lodève. He died in 1331.

Boniface VIII, Pope (Benedict Gaetani); lived from c. 1235 until 1303. A canon law graduate of Bologna, he entered papal service in 1264; He became cardinal in 1281 and was elected pope, 1294, following the abdication of Celestine V. His pontificate was overshadowed by his controversy with Philip IV of France, culminating in the seizure of the pope in his Anagni residence, and his death soon thereafter. With the Liber sextus decretalium (1298), he made a lasting contribution to ecclesiastical law, selecting and codifying what he considered the essence of papal legislation during the years since the appearance of Liber extra (1234-98). His famous decretal, Unam Sanctam (1302), on the other hand, represented the most daring (and unprecedented) assertion of papal supremacy over temporal jurisdiction and was quickly rescinded.

Bonifacius Ammannati studied law at Padua around 1370. Later on, he returned to his native city, Avignon, to teach. The Avignonese popes of called upon him to serve in political missions. In 1397 he was made cardinal, despite the fact was a layman. He died in prison at Aigues Mortes in 1399. His extensive Lectura on the Clementines had only a limited circulation, and when it was finally printed in 1522, it appeared under the spurious name of Bonifacius Vitalini.

Cajetan (Thomas de Vio), born in 1469, entered
the Dominican order when he was sixteen and studied theology at Naples and Padua. He
received the doctorate already nine years later and began to teach at Padua and Brescia.
Since 1500, he lived as the proctor of his order at the curia in Rome, until he moved up
to the generalate in 1508. He held this position until his elevation to the cardinalate,
in 1517. By that time, he was one of the leading church politicians and antagonist of
Luther at the imperial diet at Augsburg in 1518. Although less pronounced than Luther, he
was himself a critic of much of the scholastic learning as it had developed during the
late Middle Ages. In his Summula peccatorum (1525), for example, Cajetan (from
Gaeta, his hometown) sharply opposed the older confessional works as overburdened with
learned digressions and allegations. In fact, Cajetan's work marked the terminal point in
the production of confessional Summae, which were gradually rendered obsolete once
the Tridentine legislation on confessional matters took hold. Cajetan died in 1534.

Clementines (Constitutiones Clementi V, Liber Clementinarum) the official collection of papal decretals named for Pope
Clement V, who directed that the compilation be made, though it was only promulgated
definitively by his successor, John XXII, in 1317. The Clementines contains 106
decretals and canons that had been issued after Liber sextus (1298). The core of
the Clementinesconsists of thirty-eight constitutions of the Council of Vienne
(1311-12). Clement promulgated the Clementines in 1314, but he died before the collection
could be circulated. After a two year vacancy, Clement's successor, John XXII, undertook a
review of the text which took more than a year; John modified and corrected the text and
added his own promulgation letter, Quoniam nulla. Just how much John changed the Clementines
is a matter of considerable debate. Unlike the former codifications of Gregory IX (1234)
and Boniface VIII (1298), however, Pope John XXII's promulgation bull did not claim to
invalidate the more recent legislation of Boniface VIII (d. 1303) and Clement V that had
not been included. The Clementines was the last official compilation of decretals
for the medieval schools of canon law. It included the important decretals Saepe
contingitwhich completely reformed the canon law system of summary procedure, Romani
principes and Pastoralis cura which repudiated the claims of the Emperor Henry
VII to universal jurisdiction and to be able to cite Robert of Naples for rebellion
outside of his own territory.
Substantial commentaries were written on the Clementines by the canonists, Alberico di Metz, Baldus de Ubaldis, Benedictus Capra, Bernardus Maynardi, Bonifacius Ammannati, Egidius de Bellamera, Franciscus Zabarella, Giovanni Antonio Carafa, Guilelmus de Monte Laudano, Jesselin de Cassagnes, Johannes Andreae, Johannes Calderinus, Johannes de Imola, Johannes de Lignano, Lapus Tactus, Mattheus Romanus, Nicolaus de Tudeschis, Petrus de Ancharano, Petrus de Andlau, Petrus Bertrandus, Simone de Borsano, and Stephanus Hugonetti.

Correctores (of the Editio Romana). By the mid-sixteenth century, humanists were applying their skills to the canon law. One of the first to do this was Charles Dumoulin, whose edition of the Decretum was first printed in 1555. Responding to these private efforts, Pope Pius V set up a comission to produce an edition of Gratian's Decretum according to the highest humanist standards (1560). These were the correctores, at first including eight cardinals and twelve doctors of law. Eventually, their number increased to thirty-five by 1580. In 1580, the work of the commission received papal approval from Pius V's successor, Gregory XIII. The correctores examined manuscripts of the Decretum as well as its sources. The Editio Romana, which was printed in 1582, was made the official version for the ecclesiastical courts. The use of versions such as Dumoulin's were specifically prohibited, but they continued to be used.

Cosma Contarini (Contarenus, Cantarenus), born in (Venice, c. 1410, studied law at Padua and obtained the doctorate in canon law in 1434, in civil law in 1441. It seems that ten years before his first degree C. was already giving lectures in canon law at Padua. By 1438, he was certainly teaching canon law as a professor at the University, and he continued to do so until at least 1460. According to same sources, he may have abandoned teaching not until 1477. Since 1448, Cosma also acted as the vicar of the bishop of Padua.

Egidius (Gil) Alvarez de Albornoz was born on Concha (1295), studied at Tolosa and was then promoted to the archbishopric of Toledo under King Alfonso XI. Upon the latter's death he joined Pope Clement VI in Avignon, who made him cardinal in 1350. He was papal legate to Italy during the 1350's and 1360's, in an attempt to reorganize the papal states. The importance of his legateship is underlined by the Constitutiones Aegidiane he promulgated for the papal patrimony in 1357/63. He died at Viterbo in 1367. He is also said to have composed comments on canon law, but they rather belong to his relative, Fernando.

Francesco Capodilista (iunior), son of Giovanni Francesco Capodilista, was born at Padua around 1405, where he studied and became a doctor of Roman law in 1430. He apparently taught there from 1433-40, when he left Padua for political reasons. During his absence, he must have acquired a doctorate in canon law, because upon his return, in 1442, he is occasionally addressed in this capacity and may have taught the discipline. His works, however, all deal with civilian matters. He died c. 1462/63.

Franciscus Zabarella, born at Padua in 1360,
studied at Bologna under Laurentius de Pinu, Andrea da San Gerolamo and Johannes de
Legnano. He took the examinations in canon law there in 1382 and moved to Florence, where
he received the doctorate utriusque iuris in 1385. In 1391, Zabarella moved back to
Padua to teach law until 1410. His most important student was Panormitanus. Zabarella was
made archpriest at the cathedral of Padua in 1398 and bishop of Florence in 1410. In 1411,
F. was elevated to the cardinalate by the antipope John XXIII, despite the fact that he
never seems to have advanced beyond minor orders. Zabarella was one of the most important
advocates of the conciliar movement and played a prominent role during the council of
Constance. He died there in 1417 from an outbreak of plague, amid rumors of his impending
election to the Papacy. When hearing of his death, the Emperor Sigismund is said to have
declared, `Hodie mortuus est papa'. He was buried in the cathedral of Padua.
Zabarella wrote an extensive commentary on the Clementines and a shorter one on the decretales. He also wrote a number of repetitiones and consilia. One part of his commentary on the decretales consisted of a treatise on the Schism which mustered legal arguments in favor of the Council. Zabarella is perhaps best remembered as the canonist who crafted a legal basis for conciliar authority.

Giovanni (see also Johannes, Jean and Ioannes)
Giovanni d'Anania, from Anagni, studied both laws at Bologna and received the doctorate in 1423. Then he began teaching there. In 1443, he abandoned his professorial chair, however, to embark on a political career. His wife had died in the same year, and he also became a cleric, holding several offices as a canon at the cathedral of Bologna, since 1448 as the archdeacon. He died in 1457.

Giovanni Battista Roselli, a cousin of Antonio Roselli, was born at Arezzo around 1430. He studied law at Padua from at least 1446 and became doctor of both laws c. 1452, when he joined the college of judges and began teaching canon law. From 1458 to 1464, for example, he was in chrage of the `schola Sexti', but in the following years his assignments rather concentrated on civil law. He returned to the teaching of canon law only in the 1480's. He held often changing posts after that, partly because of ill health, partly because he apparently did not think of leaving Padua and therefore could not exert pressure on the University to offer him permanent posts. He died in 1510.

indicates an unusual interest in feudal law, and he may have been one of the first
lecturers on the discipline at the University of Padua at some time during the 1470's. His
first chair in canon law he did not obtain until the early 1480's, whereupon he
transferred to Brescia to join the staff of the podestà. There he died in 1492.

Guido de Baysio (the Archdeacon) was born c.1246-1256 in Baiso, near Modena. He studied canon law under Guido de Suzzara and Giovanni d'Anguissola at Reggio, where he received the doctorate in canon law. He then moved to Bologna and taught, first privately, from 1283 until 1301, before he finally obtained a chair in canon law from the city. Besides, he received support and privileges from the Papal curia and was involved in curial politics since 1295. In 1296 he was named Archdeacon of the Church of Bologna. In 1304, G. was made a papal chaplain and auditor of the court of Audientia litterarum contradictarum, so that he moved to Avignon with the papal court in 1305. While his most important student was Johannes Andreae, the canonistic work securing him fame was the Rosarium, an enormous commentary on Gratian's Decretum which he completed in 1300. Guido included a mass of material from earlier canonists such as Huguccio, Laurentius, and Vincentius which were not included in the Glossa ordinaria of Johannes Teutonicus as revised by Bartholomeus Brixiensis. He also composed an apparatus on the Liber Sextus. Guido died in 1313.

Guido Papa (Guipape), from Lyons, studied law at Montpellier, Pavia, and Torino, before he moved to Grenoble to become an advocate, in 1430. As a member of the provincial goverment (since 1444), he collected the decisions of the council, later parliament (after 1453) of the Dauphiné. His political career was finished, however, when the king charged him with illoyal behavior (1461). He nevertheless stayed at Grenoble for the rest of his life (d.1487), working on several legal treatises.

Guido Terreni, born around 1260, joined the Carmelites in 1290 and taught theology at Paris until 1318, when he was made general of his order. One of the great supporters of Pope John XXII and his policies, he became bishop of Majorca (1321) and Elne (1332), but spent much of his time at the papal curia at Avignon, where he died in 1342. He left a number of canonistic works such as the Expositorium Decreti, which offered a resume of Gratian's text for the use of theologians.

Guillelmus Hugonis, archdeacon of Metz, wrote a treatise, commissioned at Arras in 1435, on the Treaty of Troyes (1420) in order to prove that Phillip, Duke of Burgundy, was not bound by its provisions which made the English king the successor of Charles VI to the French throne.

Guillelmus de Mandagato studied canon law at Bologna under Bérengar de Frédol and obtained a doctorate in 1275. By 1286, G. was serving in the Roman curia as an apostolic notary. He became a papal chaplain in 1291. In 1295, Boniface VIII appointed him to the archbishopric of Embrun, as well as to the commission drafting the Liber sextus (1296). G. briefly transferred to the see of Aix (1311-12), until he was made cardinal bishop of Palestrina in. G. died in December of 1321. G. was one of the editors of the Liber Sextus, wrote a tract on elections and drafted the statutes for the abbey of Montmajour. He was thought to have written a Summa on the Liber Extra, but this has recently been discounted.

Guilelmus de Monte Laudano (Guilelmus de Monte Lauduno, Guillaume de Montlauzun), from Quercy, joined the Cluniac order and studied at Paris, where he obtained the doctorate in canon law. Until at least 1314, he was then professor at the University of Toulouse. It is uncertain where he spent the following years, during which he completed most of his canonistic works. Besides commentaries on the more recent decretal collections, they included the Sacramentale, a manual intended to guide canonists through the intricacies of theological sacramental doctrine. In 1321, Pope John XXII made him abbot of Montierneuf (Poitiers). For the rest of his life, he was involved in administrative matters, often on behalf of the papacy. Guilelmus died in 1343.

Guillelmus Parisiensis, a Dominican, was the confessor of King Philip of France from 1305 and the chief investigator in Philip's campaign against the French Templar's from 1307 onwards. At an earlier stage of his career, G had studied at Paris, probably theology. A repertory of the Decretum and Liber extra, called Tabula iuris (before 1298), originates from that period. G. died around 1314.

Henricus de Hassia (see Henricus de Langenstein)
Henricus de Hervordia (Herford) was a Dominican from the convent of St. Paul at Minden (Westphalia). Besides several theological and grammatical treatises, he also composed a commentary on the decretal Super cathedram of Boniface VIII, which he mentions in his Catena aurea (MS Vatican City, Vat. lat. 4310, fol. 1), but now appears to be lost. He died in 1470.

Henricus de Langenstein (de Hassia) lived from 1325-1397. Henricus pursued an academic career, first in philosophy (ca. 1363), then as a doctor of theology at Paris (1376). When the French king increased his pressure on the university to acknowledge the Avignonese Pope Clement VII, Henricus answered with pamphletes that called ofr a general council to end of schism. In 1383, he left Paris and eventually joined the University of Vienna. There he composed treatises bearing on legal matters, among which his confessional manual became a major work of reference in the Empire.

Hermannus de Praga studied canon law at Bologna around 1300. He later became member of the cathedral chapter at Prague, then auditor at the curia in Avignon. There he wrote several canonistic treatises for the practical needs of the jurists in court. The most important is a concordance of Gratian's decretum with the decretal collection of Gregory IX. In 1337, he was appointed bishop of Ermland. He died in 1349.

Jacobus de Belviso was born in Bologna around 1270. Studied at Bologna under Franciscus Accursius and Dino. He taught canon law there in 1296-97. He received doctorates from Naples in December of 1298 and from Bologna in 1305. It was long believed that he also obtained a degree from Aix, but this seems not to have been the case (see Maffei 1979). Similarly, he never wrote the treatise titled Practica, which circulated under his name from its first printed edition in 1515. For a long time, Jacobus remained a wandering scholar, lecturing on both laws at Padua, Siena, Perugia, and Naples. Finally, he settled in his hometown in 1321. He died in 1335.

Jean Gerson (1363-1429), one of the most prominent theologians
of his age, succeeded Pierre d'Ailly as professor of theology and chancellor of
the University of Paris. Jean proposed solutions to the enduring schism in the
Roman Church in numerous treatises and took part in the Council of Constance
ending the conflict. His involvement in the conciliar movement made it appear
dangerous to him to return to Paris in 1419, so that he spent the final years of
his life at Lyons. He was also the author of several highly successful
confessional works which he combined in an Opus tripartita, as well as
other pamphlets on canonical matters.

Jesselin de Cassagnes (Genzelinus de Cassanis, Genselinus de Casanis ultramontanus, Zenzelinus) (born before 1300 probably in the south of France; d.1334/35) J. was teaching law at Montpellier by 1317. In 1323 he moved to Avignon where he became chaplain of Cardinal Arnaud de Via to whom he dedicated his three commentaries. In a document of 1323 he is mentioned as papal chaplain. From 1325 to 1335 Jesselin was involved in the workings of the curia as an executor of papal letters. He received many benefices and he was also named a member of the Rota; this appointment took effect by 1326. He didn't advance any more in his career, probably because of his old age and his poor health and not - as somebody has pointed out - because of the controversies arisen on Jesselin's thesis on the papacy.

Job Vener, born at Strasbourg as the son of Reinbold Vener, ca. 1370, studied the arts at Paris and then law at Heidelberg, before he went to Bologna. There he received degrees in Roman law (1395) and canon law (1397). Upon his return to Heidelberg, he may have taught for a while, but his main professional concerns were those of a royal official, once King Ruprecht of the Palatinate had appointed him protonotary, councillor, and judge, in 1400. Following the king on his military expeditions to Italy, Job still found the opportunity to obtain the doctorate utriusque iuris at Bologna (1402). As the leading representative of the Palatinate, he took part in many of the political events of the day, such as the royal elections of 1410/11 and the Council of Constance. Later, he wrote juridical pamphlets in support of Hraban, archbishop of Trier. Most of his other writings (ed. H. Heimpel [1982] 1169-1517) also reflect his involvement in day-to-day affairs. He died in 1447.

Johannes de Anania (see Giovanni d'Anania)
Johannes Andreae (occasionally Bononiensis), born c.1270, was the most renowned and successful canonist of the later Middle Ages, referred to by contemporaries as iuris canonici fons et tuba. Johannes studied law in Bologna: Roman law under Martinus Sillimanus and Riccardus Malumbra; canon law under Egidius Fuscarariis and Guido de Baysio. J. taught canon law at Bologna from 1301/02 until his death in 1348, save for 1307-09 and 1319, when he was teaching in Padua. J. was the author of the Bolognese University-statutes of 1317. Johannes Calderinus was his student and later his adoptive son. Paulus de Liazariis and Johannes de Sancto Georgio were his students, and Johannes counted Cino da Pistoia and Petrarch among his friends. J. remained a layman, was married and had children. His productivity in canon law was enormous. Most important among his works were extensive commentaries on all of the official decretal collections, which he revised several times. J. had a keen interest in the history of his discipline, and often noted the contributions of earlier and even some contemporary jurists in his various writings. J. died in Bologna in the plague of 1348.

Early Printed Editions: Venice 1489 [5 volumes] Hain 1065). Discussion: This title covers a number of revisions of a commentary on the Decretals of Gregory IX which culminated in the Novella. The first recension was a series of additiones on the Decretales written before the publication of the Clementines (1317). The second recension was an expansion on the first. A third recension, or perhaps simply a mixture of I and II seems also to have circulated before the work reached its final form by 1338. Repetitiones which had been written apart from this work were integrated into it and revised with the rest of the commentary (See Pennington, 'Johannes Andreae's Additiones')

Discussion: This collection of quaestiones was first collected under various titles before the publication of the Clementines and perhaps even before the publication of the Liber Sextus (see Cesena, Bibl. Maletest. S.II.3). After the publication of the Clementines and after Johannes had produced his gloss upon them, he revised and added to the Quaestiones mercuriales, rearranging them according to the rules of law. All the manuscripts of the revised version have the single title, De regulis iuris.

Johannes Bromyard was a Dominican from the convent at Hereford
(ca. 1326-1352). He wrote a manual on confession, Opus trivium, which
included a considerable amount of canonistic material (ca. 1330), of which he
later presented a revision, Summa predicantium (before 1348).

Johannes Baptista de Casalupis (Caccialupi) was born at San Severino, c. 1420. Although better known for his civilian works, he also lectured on canon law, when he was called to Rome by Pope Sixtus IV in 1483/84. J. had studied law at Perugia since 1441. Since 1452, he taught civil law at Siena and soon became the best paid lecturer there. After having transferred to Rome, he also was active as a consistorial advocate, residing in a palace at the vicolo Savelli (n.48), which bears his name inscribed above the front gate until today. He died at Rome in 1496.

Johannes Calderinus (born at the beginning
of the fourteenth century - d. 1365) He studied under Johannes Andreae, who became
his stepfather. In 1326 he obtained the doctorate in canon law and began to
teach in Bologna; he was a colleague of Jacobus Buttrigarius and Paulus de
Liazariis. Among his students was Simon de Borsano. Johannes was married three times
and had at least five children, including a son, Gaspare, who was also a
significant canonist. Johannes took part actively in the civic life of Bologna and was
very close to the 'Signoria' of Taddeo Pepoli as many others civilists and
canonists of this period were. He received many honors from city, popes and princes.
In 1360 and 1362, he took part in two missions for the city of Bologna to the
popes Innocentius VI and Urbanus V. He died in 1365 of the plague. His legal
writings, though lacking in the originality that distinguished the classical
period of canon law scholarship, were acknowledged by his successors and had an
important influence during the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. An accurate list of Johannes
works is yet to be determined: Calderinus was not an uncommon name and works of
others bearing this name have yet to be disassociated from this canonist.

Johannes von Freiburg (Jean le Lecteur, de Hasela, Johannes Choriantus, Lector, Rumsik), born c.1250 in Haslach/Kinzigtal. J. studied theology in Paris, possibly under Thomas Aquinas. He began legal studies in Strasbourg by 1272 under Ulrich von Strasbourg. J. had entered the Dominican order, and in 1280 he becam the prior and Lector of the Dominican house in Freiburg. In addition to preaching, J. was a very active writer, initially engaged in adapting the penitential works of St. Raymond of Peñafort. He provided an index to Raymond's Summa and added a series of questions, before he undertook a penitential summa of his own in 1290. J. also produced shorter versions of this work, and supplied an appendix, statuta, inspired by the appearance of the new legislation of Boniface VIII in 1298. Johannes died in Freiburg in 1304.

Johannes de Imola, (Giovanni Niccoletti) born c. 1372, studied law at Bologna under Francesco Ramponi and Johannes of Lignano. He obtained the doctorate in 1397 and began to teach there in both laws in 1399. He then probably transferred to Padua (1400-02), later to Ferrara (c. 1402-07) and Siena (1404?, 1408-09), before he returned to Bologna to teach in the city uninterruptedly until 1430. In 1430-32, we find him once again at the University of Padua, teaching canon law. He died at Bologna in 1436.

Johannes Monachus (Jean Lemoine, Le Moyne). Born at Crécy (c.1240-50), likely of a noble family. Not a monk. Studied law at Paris. Obtained prebends for Churches in Paris, Amiens and Bayeux which he held until his death in 1313. During the 1280's, Lemoine was promoted to Dean of Bayeux, but it seems doubtful that he ever discharged his duties there personally. In 1285, he was serving as a procurator in the Roman curia. During the reign of Honorious IV (1285-87), J. became a papal chaplain and an auditor. In 1288, he was advanced to the Vice-Chancellorship of the Roman Church by Pope Nicholas IV. In 1293, he was elected Bishop of Arras, but probably remained only an electus as he was promoted to the Cardinalate in 1294 by Pope Celestine V. Lemoine remained on good terms with Pope Boniface VIII and worked dilligently on curial business until his legation to France in 1303. At the height of the second conflict between Boniface VIII and Philip IV of France, J. was dipatched as a legate to Paris in a last and unsuccessful effort to achieve a resolution. J. has been charged by some historians with adopting a (treacherous) anti-Bonifacian position on this mission; but it seems more likely that, whatever his personal views, he attempted to perform a task which simply proved impossible. From 1303-1313 he worked in the curial administration in Rome and Avignon. During his career, J. gave liberally to various churches and the Collége de Cholets in Paris and eventually founded a college in the University of Paris bearing his own name.
Johannes Monachus's most important work was a Glossa aurea to the Liber Sextus; it was an important and persuasive work which was often cited by later canonists. He also wrote extensive glosses to Boniface VIII's Extravagantes, many of which were incorporated into the Glossa ordinaria to the Extravagantes communes. Although Lemoine has been seen as an extreme papalist, the studies of Johannessen and Steckling cast serious doubt on such an interpretation.

Johannes de Turrecremata, a Dominican born at Valladolid in 1388, was the foremost defender of the papal monarchy against the conciliarist movement. Originally trained as a theologian at Salamanca and Paris in the 1420's, his transfer to the papal curia in 1431 and the involvement in the political struggles soon led him to study the sources of canon law. The principal outcome was his commentary on Gratian's Decretum, finished in 1464. He became cardinal in 1439 and died at Rome in 1468.

Juan Gonzáles (Johannes Gundissalvi) studied canon law at Salamanca, where he became doctor decretorum around 1418. In the same year, he went to the Council of Constance as the proctor of his University and the Queen of Castille, and continued on to Rome to become an auditor at the papal curia. Named bishop of Cadiz in 1426, he left Rome in 1427 for his diocese. He reappeared at the Council at Basel (1432-34) but returned to Cadiz after two years. He died in 1440. His literary activity revolved exclusively around political questions of the day, mostly in the form of tractatus.

Juan Alfonso de Mayorga (see Juan Alfonso de Madrid)
Juan Alfonso de Mella, born at Zamora in 1397, studied and taught canon law at Salamanca. By 1419, he was decretorum doctor. In 1423, he became auditor of the Roman Rota. In this function he wrote numerous consilia, such as one supporting the English king's claims to the French throne according to the treaty of Troyes (1420), and was often involved in high politics. Thus, he was sent as a papal envoy to the councils of Basel and Ferrara. His writings are mostly related to these missions. In 1437, he became bishop of León (1437), and was later transferred to Zamora (1440) and Siguenza (1466). He nevertheless spent most of his time at the curia in Rome, where he was named cardinal in 1456. Juan died in 1467.

Laurentius de Ridolfis (Lorenzo Ridolfi). Born 1362 or 1363 to a patrician Florentine family, Ridolfi studied canon law in Bologna under Laurentius de Pinu and Johannes de Fantutiis. Admitted doctor of canon law in September 1387, he lectured in Bologna for a year before returning to Florence in 1388, where he was appointed ordinarius of canon law in the university. He was among the most active members of the College of Doctors of Law, the body responsible for presenting and examining doctoral candidates, sponsoring some fifteen candidates for the doctorate in canon law between 1392 and 1438. Among the most influential figures in Florentine politics in the early fifteenth century, he was drawn Standard-Bearer of Justice, the Republic’s highest office, four times and regularly held other public offices. Often employed as a diplomat, he participated in embassies to various popes, the kings of Naples, the emperor Robert of Bavaria (who awarded him the title of Count Palatine), and other Italian city-states, such as Perugia, Milan, Venice and Genoa. In 1409, he represented the Republic at the Council of Pisa and as ambassador to Alexander V. Ridolfi is best known for his treatise on usury (Tractatus de usuris). Completed in February 1404, it was the most influential study of usury and interest in the later Middle Ages. It also represented a decisive contribution to the controversies over usury and interest on government debt funds, and for this reason has attracted the attention of several modern historians. A leading Florentine jurist, Ridolfi managed a busy law practice, and several hundred of his consilia for private clients, law courts and public agencies survive. Ridolfi died in 1443 as governor of Pistoia. [This entry and bibliography was written by Lawrin Armstrong]

Liber Sextus: The official compilation of decretals and conciliar canons produced after the publication of the Decretales Gregorii IXpromulgated in 1298 by Pope Boniface VIII. Boniface had directed three canonists, Berengarius Fredoli, Guillelmus de Mandagout and Ricardus Petronius de Senis to select and edit the texts for this compilation, which is called the Sext because it is the supplement to the five books of the Decretales. The Sext is especially notable for the inclusion at the end of a series of eighty-eight regule iuris, and for Boniface's promulgation bull, Sacrosancte Romane Ecclesie, which declares that only the decretals and conciliar canons which were included were to have legal force.
Major commentaries on the Liber Sextus were written (after 1300) by the canonists, Alberico da Rosciate, Antonius de Butrio, Baldus de Ubaldis, Benedictus Capra, Bernardus Raimundi Maioricensis, Dominicus de Sancto Geminiano, Giovanni d'Anania, Guido de Baysio, Guilelmus de Monte Laudano, Jean de Bourbon, Jean da Sierck, Jesselin de Cassagnes, Johannes Andreae, Johannes Monachus, Johannes de Sancto Georgio, Lapus Tactus, Martinus Garatus Laudensis, Nicolaus de Tudeschis, Petrus de Ancharano, Petrus de Andlau, Petrus Bertrandus, Petrus Maurocenus and Philipus Franchus de Perusio.

Lodrisio Crivelli, a Milanese born c. 1412, studied civil law and entered the service of the archbishop of Milan around 1432. In 1441, he became member of the legal faculty at Milan and was made doctor of canon law two years later. From there he moved on to a professorship forst at Pavia, lecturing on the Gregorian decretals (1444-46, 1447-48), then to Milan and to Ferrara (1449-52) to teach the canon law. His primary interest, however, seems to have been in rhetoric, since most of his writings are speeches and verses occasioned by political events of the day. In 1463, he fell in disgrace with the Sforza and fled to Rome to seek protection from Pope Pius II. He died some time after 1464.

Ludovicus Bologninus was born at Bologna in 1446 and studied law under Alexander Tartagni and Andrea Barbazza. He received the doctorate in civil law in 1469, in canon law in 1470, whereupon he held his first lectures on the Sext and the Clementines. In 1473, he went to Ferrara to teach on the Digest for five years, until he returned to his hometown to accept important offices in the communal government. Besides, he continued his academic activities and was consistorial advocate of the pope in absentia. From 1501-05, he worked predominantly at Florence, then again at Bologna. Although was once again mentioned as a teacher of the Decretals in the curriculum of 1507-08, he appears to have already departed for France by November 1507, to serve in his new function as Bolognese ambassador. He died upon his return a year later, at Florence.

Lodovicus Pontanus (Romanus), born about 1409 in Cerreto di Spoleto. He studied in Perugia with Giovanni Montesperelli († 1464) and Angelo Perigli († 1447) and later in Bologna with Giovanni da Imola. He received his licence in civil law in Bologna on the 9th October 1427 and doctorate in both laws in Bologna on the 22th December 1429. From October 1428 to June 1431 he taught civil law at Florence. Then he became judge of the Rota Romana, consistorial advocate and professor of the Studium Romanum; later he also held the position of Apostolic protonotary (October 1435). From October 1433 to April 1436, he was professor for civil law in Siena. Then he entered into the service of King Alfonso V of Aragon and Sicily. From December 1436, he was ambassador from Aragon at the Council of Basel. In April 1438, he became ambassador of the Council to Duke Amadeo VIII of Savoy (the later pope Felix V) and from July to October 1438 he was ambassador of the Council to the archbishop of Cologne, Dietrich of Moers, the city and the university of Cologne, the duke of Burgundy, Philip the Good, and the University of Leuven. Pontano died on the 11th July 1439 of the plague. He is buried in the charterhouse of Basel.

Martinus Garatus Laudensis first appears as a doctor of civil law at the University of Pavia in 1430. He lectured there on Roman law at least for the years 1439-46, before went on to Siena (1446-48). His consilia indicate that he was often consulted as one of the leading jurists in Northern Italy. Other stations in his teaching career were Bologna (1148-49), where most of his works in canon law were written, Parma (1450) and Ferrara (1450-53). He died, probably at Bologna, in 1453.

Martinus Martini, from the Iberian peninsula, wrote, around 1300, a commentary on the Gregorian decretals called Candelabrum iuris. He was a 'capellanus commensalis' in the entourage of Cardinal Mateo Orsini. He died in 1305. Martinus had also been canon at the chapter of Toledo. He may further be identical with a Martinus Martini mentioned in a will drafted at Salamanca in 1270. A forerunner of the Candelabrum seems to be another work of the same title in Paris, B.N. lat. 18227. Peter Linehan has supplied information about Martinus.

Nicolaus de Ausimo (Auximanus), a Franciscan, was the author of a complementary work (finished in 1444) to the Pisanella, the successful confessional that Bartholomeus de Chaimis had composed almost a century earlier. Nicolaus updated it according to the more recent canonical legislation, also including regular references to the Summa confessorum of Johannes of Freiburg. His enlarged version almost completely superseded the original Pisanella. There was furthermore a collection of penitential canons circulating under his name. However, as Nicolaus admitted in a prologue, he had simply copied it from the Summa of Astesanus (Book 5, ch.32).

Nicolaus Capocius Romanus (perhaps to be identified with Nicolaus Cappellanus and/or Nicolaus de Tuberto). This canonist is mentioned in Johannes Andreae's additiones to the Speculum of William Duranti (de accusat. § sequitur uidere s.v. Quid), and by Albericus de Rosate Statut. P.IV q.39, 45, and 89), and by Diplovatatius (f.219). He was a Roman and a cardinal at some point during Albericus's working life. Diplovatatius identified him with Nicolaus de Tuberto.

Nicolaus Cusanus (Nicholas of Cusa, of Cues, Nikolaus von Kues) born 1401 in Kues on the Moselle. N. studied law at Padua 1417-23, promoted to doctor decretorum in 1423. Therafter, N. taught canon law briefly at Cologne. From 1425, N. was serving as the secretary to the Archbishop of Trier. He refused appointment as a professor of canon law at the University of Löwen in 1428 and again in 1435. When the see of Trier fell vacant in 1429, N. supported the claim of Ulrich of Manderscheid against the papal choice, Hrabanus of Helmstedt. In 1430, N. carried the fight to the Council of Basel. Although N. was not able to prevail, he became a major figure at the council. N. proposed approaches to the Hussites which were adopted by the Council. At first, N. supported the council against the Pope, but as dissent and rancor grew and the opportunity for reunification with the Orthodox church presented itself, N. switched his support to the pope. He was one of three commissioners sent to Constantinople to negotiate in 1437. N. was elevated to the Cardinalate in 1448. In 1451 he travelled through Germany as a papal legate on a misssion to reform churches. In 1452, N. was made bishop of Bressanone. For the next twelve years, he attempted to liberate the diocese from the domination of Duke Sigismund. On two occasions the dispute erupted into violence which forced N. to flee to Rome. On August 11, 1464, as N. was returning from his second flight he fell ill and died in the city of Todi.
Nicolaus Cusanus was primarily a philosopher and theologian. Nevertheless, he was trained as a canon law jurist, was employed as such and briefly taught canon law in Cologne. N.'s library includes a manuscript of glosses on Book II of the Decretales of Gregory IX by his teacher Prosdocimo Conti which has marginal glosses by N. himself. His De concordantia catholica is more a work of philosophy than of law, but many of its arguments and authorities are canonistic in origin. N. also wrote, during his involvement with Basliean conciliarism, a few sermons or tractatus on the authority of the council and the pope which have a signifigant canon law content. In addition to these identified works, Kenneth Pennington reports that manuscripts of the Decretum and the Decretales in the library at Kues contain a substantial number of marginal glosses written by Nicolaus himself.

Nicolaus de Dinkelsbühl (1360-1433) studied the liberal arts and theology in Vienna and eventually became a professor in both faculties (since 1385), where he continued to teach until ca.1431. Besides several theological, political and moral works, he also wrote a penitential treatise which had some bearing on matters of canon law.

Nicolaus de Tudeschis (Panormitanus, Abbas siculus, Abbas Modernus) (1386-1445) N. was the last great canonist in the medieval tradition. Born 1386 in Catania, Sicily, N. studied canon law in Bologna and Padua. N. called Franciscus Zabarella his master, and also studied under Antonius de Butrio. N. Began teaching canon law in Bologna in 1412; but that same year he moved on to Parma where he taught until 1418. In that year N. moved again to Siena where he taught until 1430. Among his students from this period were Marianus Socinus. In 1421 he was named Auditor generalis of the Camera Apostolica. In 1424, N. participated in the abortive council of Sienna. N. had entered the Benedictine order in his youth and in 1425 became the abbot of the monastery of St. Maria de Maniaco in Messina. In 1431, N. began lecturing in Bologna.
In 1433 N. was sent as a delegate by Pope Eugenius IV to the Council of Basel; however, when he was confronted with the anti-conciliar position enunciated in the spurious bull, Deus novit, he joined the conciliar party against the pope. Although his canonistic works betray an essentially papalist orientation, as the conflict between the Council and the Pope heated up, Panormitanus crafted legal arguments strongly favoring the authority of the council against the Pope. In 1434, with the support of Alfonso V, King of Aragon and Sicily, N. was elected Archbishop of Palermo. During the years 1436-39, N. represented Alfonso at Basel. In 1440, he was named Cardinal by the antipope Felix V, and was sent back to Basel by Alfonso where he remained until 1443. In that year N. left Basel for the last time and returned to Sicily. N. died in Palermo in 1445 of plague.
As a canonist, Nicolas tried to integrate theological learning into jurisprudence; and so, for example, his incomplete work on the Decretum includes a discussion of Aquinas and natural law. He wrote large Lectura on the Decretales, the Liber Sext, and the the Clementines, a small work on the Decretum, a number of Consilia, and a series of Questiones, Repetitiones and Disputationes, as well as a work, Flores utriusque iuris, on the Council of Basel. He seems also to have written a manual on procedure. For a detailed discussion of his life and works, click here.

Oldradus de Ponte (de Laude) Little is known of this jurist. He was likely from Lodi and studied in Bologna with Jacobus de Arena and the civilian Dinus. Before 1307 Oldradus served as an assessor in Bologna and he may have taught Roman law there. In 1307, Oldradus moved to Padua where he taught Roman law until early in 1311. Johannes Andrea records having held public disputations with him in Padua. Among Oldradus's students were Albericus de Rosate and perhaps Bartolus. A manuscript at Cornell University which contains consilia from a number of jurists who taught at Perugia includes a single consilium of Oldradus. This is in harmony with Oldradus having been a teacher of Bartolus who studied at Perugia and suggests that Oldradus may have taught briefly there. Diplovatatius claimed that Oldradus taught law at Sienna and Montpellier, based on an account in a Tractatus de commemmoratione attributed to Baldus de Ubaldis. This work remains a mystery and thus Diplovatatius's claim must be treated with skepticism. Evidence from a charter at Lérida suggests that Oldradus may have given lectures there. In 1311, Oldradus went to the papal court in Avignon as the protege of Peter Cardinal Colonna. Oldradus served as an auditor and judge in the Rota at Avignon for the rest of his life. It is likely that he also taught in the law school in Avignon. It is thought that Oldradus exercised a considerable influence over the legal business and politics of the curia. The traditional date of his death is usually stated as 1335; however, Thomas Fastolf wrote that Oldradus was debating cases in the Rota in 1336/1337 and evidence from his consilia indicates that he was alive as late as 1343.
Oldradus wrote several hundred consilia which display a most penetrating and creative legal mind. Two of his consilia (#43 and #69 in the Vulgate series) seem to have been used as the basis for Clement V's decretal Pastoralis cura, in which the Pope repudiated the claims of the Emperor Henry VII to cite King Robert of Naples for rebellion.
Oldradus was one of the first canonists not only to write a large number of consilia on actual legal problems, but also to collect them. His consilia collection helped to establish this genre as the principal form of legal discourse in the Later Middle ages.

DISCUSSION:The total number of Oldradus's consilia is not certain. The manuscripts which contain them have no more than 274 consilia; however, most of the printed editions contain 333 consilia. The difference is made up, according to the editor of the earliest such edition (Rome 1478), out of consilia culled from other books. Whether these consilia were written by Oldradus or not remains in doubt. The manuscripts themselves present the consilia in three different series. Most manuscripts follow a series from 1-264, sometimes with ten consilia added at the end (Munich, Clm 3638 and Vat. Ross. lat. 1096 for example). All the printed editions follow this series, but most of these have a further addition of fifty-nine consilia at the end, bringing the total to 333. Only one of these fifty-nine added consilia have been found in any manuscript. The single exception is #276 which is simply a repetion of #239. A second series, which is present in Clm 5463 and partially in Dresden B.87, is complete with 223 consilia. This series is most probably an earlier collection since all the 220 consilia are included in the Vulgate Series, and because the consilia in this series make very few references to the Clementines. The other consilia in the Vulgate Series make many more allegations to the Clementines. A third exists in a manuscript in private possession (Antiquariat Keip, Frankfurt MS 1987) which contains 264 consilia. This series is clearly related to the Vulgate Series also since it keeps the same sequence in certain segments (thus VS #2-44 = Keip #158-199 and VS #179-257 = Keip #69-147); but whether it precedes or derives from the Vulgate series is not clear. It certainly is not directly related to the series of Clm 5463 since the third series has consilia which are not in the earlier series, and lacks any common sequences of consilia which are not also in the Vulgate Series. Additionally, it is not known whether there are a signifigant number of Oldradus's consilia which circulated apart from his own collection. Much work remains to be done.

Petrus de Ancharano, born ca.1333 in Tuscany. Studied first Roman law at Perugia under Baldus and later Canon law at Bologna under Bartholomeus de Saliceto. He was a colleague of Zabarella and Antonius da Butrio. From 1384, P. embarked upon the sort of vagabond half-teaching, half-official career that was common in the later Middle Ages. In 1384 P. became a consultor for the city of Venice. He may have taught law intermittently at Padua from 1385-87. During 1387-90 he was teaching law in Sienna. He returned to Venice and remained here until at least 1392. From 1395 P. was teaching law in Bologna and was employed as a consultor by the city. In 1402 P. was called to a chair in canon law in Ferrara by Nicolo d'Este where he remained until 1405. P. then returned to Bologna. In 1409 he attended the Council of Pisa as a representative of the University of Bologna. He attended also the opening of the Council of Constance, but remained only a short time before returning to Bologna where he died in 1416. Among his students were Antonius da Butrio, Johannes de Imola, and Panormitanus.

Petrus Bertrandus, born 1280 in Annonay near Vienne. Studied law at Orleans, Avignon, and theology at Montpellier, where he received doctorate in utroque iure in 1301 and became professor of canon law at Avignon. In 1307 he became professor in both laws at Montpellier. In 1312 he took up chairs in canon law in Paris and civil law in Orleans. P. also served as a pleader in the Parlement of Paris. He held a large number of ecclesiastical offices and performed various diplomatic missions for the papacy and the French monarchy. In 1320 he was named bishop of Nevers and in 1325 he became bishop of Autun. He participated in the so-called council of Vincennes, which was held from December 15, 1329 to January 7, 1330. At this council, P. defended the traditional interwoven but separate Church-State relationship against Pierre de Cugnièrs, who advocated a much stronger separation between Church and State, with the State holding the dominant position. In 1331 P. became cardinal bishop. He died in Pujault in 1349.

Petrus Boherius (Bohier), born c. 1310-15 near Carcassonne (Southern France), soon joined the Benedictines and studied canon law under Johannes Johannis, abbot of Joncels. In 1350, he was elected abbot of St. Chinian, near Béziers. He stayed there until 1364, playing a leading role in the provincial chapters of his order. Probably an outcome of these administrative activities, he wrote legal commentaries on several papal bulls affecting the Benedictines and, above all, his first commentary on the Rule of Benedict (1361). In 1364, Pope Urban V appointed him to the bishopric of Orvieto and simultaneously made him his vicar in Rome. In 1369, he also received the see of Vaison, but remained involved in papal affairs at Orvieto. Resuming his literary activities, he wrote a `Tabula' on Gratian's Decretum (c. 1367-71) and presented a revised version of his comment on the Benedictine Rule to the monks of Subiaco (c.1373-77). At the outbreak of the schism, Petrus first sided with the French cardinals, which led to the loss of his Italian diocese (1378/79) and the return to his native France. There he became the chaplain of King Charles VI who assigned to him the task of writing a history of the popes. He completed it in 1380, in the form of a gloss on the Liber pontificalis. While working at it, he came to realize that Urban VI had a better claim to the papacy than his Avignonese opponent. Consequently, he returned to Italy in 1386, to submit to him. He died in winter, 1387-88.

Petrus Ravennas (Pietro Francesco Tommai, Thomasius Petrus Franciscus) was born at Ravenna after 1448. Studied under Alessandro Tartagni and then moved on to Padua. There he lectured on the Institutes and in 1472 was given the doctorate in utroque iuris. He taught, briefly it seems, in several other cities: Bologna, Pavia, Ferrara and Pistoia. At Padua, he undertook also the functions of an assessor to the Podestà. P. left Padua by 1497 for Germany. He was called to the new university at Greifswald by its founder, Duke Bogislav X of Pomerania. Taught Roman and canon law there until 1501 when an epidemic encouraged him to flee to Wittenburg. He remained at Wittenburg until 1516 when another outbreak of plague there forced P. to abandon Wittenburg for Köln. He died there in 1508.

Philipus Decius (Mailand 1454-Siena 1536/1537). He began his studies in 1471 in Pavia, where he was taught civil by his brother Lancellottus, canon law by Giason del Maino and Giovanni dal Pozzo. He received his doctorate in utroque iure in Pisa in 1476 and there began his teaching career. From 1481 to 1487, except for a period in which he was auditor of the Roman Rota P. was teaching first canon law and then Roman law at Siena. Afterwards he was called back to Pisa where he taught until 1501. In 1502 he was professor of canon law at Padua, and in 1505 at Pavia. Because of his participation in the council of Pisa (1511-12) he was excommunicated by Pope Julius II. As result P. moved first to Piedmont and then to Valence, where he was a professor. During the pontificate of Leo X, who had been one of his students, P. was absolved. This allowed him to return to Italy, taking up teaching at Rome. He also served as a member of the Senate in Milan and curator at the university of Pavia. From 1517 to 1525 he was a professor in Pisa, and then in Siena, where he died in 1536/37.

Pietro del Monte, a Venetian born c. 1400-04, studied the laws at Padua under Prodocimo de Conti and Giovan Francesco di Capodilista. He received the doctorate in 1433. Although better known as a humanist and author of a letter collection, he earned his living as a jurist and churchman. He went to the council of Basel as a strong supporter of papal views, and later to England (1435-40) and France (1442-45) as a papal delegate. In 1442, he was nominated bishop of Brescia, but spent most of his time at the papal court. There he also wrote his chief legal work, a repertory on both laws (1453). He died at Rome in 1457.

Silvester Prierias (Mazzolini de Prierio), a Dominican who lived from ca. 1460 to 1523, was the author of what he intended to be the ultimate confessional work, incorporating, comparing and reconciling all of the teachings to be found in the major Summe of his medieval predecessors. To illustrate his purpose, he himself called it Summa summarum (ca.1516), which in fact rendered obsolete much of what had been said before. The number of printed editions thereafter clearly outnumbered those of other authors in the field, while the truly encyclopedic format discouraged later attempts to attempt further Summa confessorum. In this way, Silvester's work marked the culmination and close of this literary genre.

Simone de Borsano, from a Milanese family, studied and taught canon law at various universities, especially at Padua and Bologna, with Gille Bellemère as his formost student. In 1371, Pope Gregory XI made him archbishop of Milan. He may, however, never have set foot into his diocese. Instead, he continued to serve on papal missions, and was rewarded with the cardinalate in 1375. His political attachment since the outbreak of the great schism in 1378 are rather unclear. Only towards his death in 1381 he declared to side with the Avignonese cause. Among his literary works, there survives two commentaries on portions of the Sext, composed at Padua in 1360 and 1371, and his lectura on the Clementines (ca.1360-70).

Stefan Bodeker (Doliator) was born at Rathenow (Brandenburg) in 1384. He entered the Premonstratensian order at an early age. He studied, probably law, at Erfurt (1406), and later law at Prague (1408). He finally enrolled at the University of Leipzig (1411/12). It is unclear if he ever received a degree, but he held a repetitioon canon law during the same time. Subsequently, Stefan's interests rather turned to theological matters, as he embarked on an ecclesiastical career at Brandenburg. He became bishop there (1421-59) and acquired an unusual knowledge of Hebrew. He died in 1459.

Stefano Buonaccorsi, a Florentine born in 1350, appears in the college of judges of his native city since c. 1384. The local officials elected him to hold lectures on the Liber sextus and the Clementines in 1388, but he may have taught already earlier. He never became a canonist of first rank, as is attested by his rather low and stagnant income and the lack of academic writings, despite the fact that he taught for more than forty years. On the other hand, there is considerable evidence of his participation in practical matters, in diplomatic missions and as an author of consilia. He died in 1432/33.

William of Pagula (Poul), vicar of Winkfield, Berkshire (1314-1332), studied and taught at Oxford since 1314, leaving a number of pastoral treatises. He summed up his work in an elaborate Summa summarum (1319-22), which was intended to offer a solution to any question of pastoral or legal concern. Largely influenced by the Repertorium of Guilelmus Durantis and the penitential Summa of Johannes of Freiburg, its scope of legal and theological references was nevertheless much wider. The work circulated in England throughout the later Middle Ages.
