Biography/Description

Probably the name of the (French?) master whose glosses on the Collectio Cassellana (c.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.
