Biography/Description |
|
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. |
