Biography/Description |
|
Jurist from the city of Verona; son of a certain Ardizo, who provided Jacobus with his chosen siglum, ‘Ar’. He appeared in Bologna as early as c.1220 but perhaps later, c.1225–26, possibly in connection with the driving out of the Guelf party from Verona in that year. He then studied under Azo and Hugolinus. Later taught in Bologna and concentrated his own writings on feudal law, about which he was very knowledgeable. Compiled the definitive collection of extravagantes to the Libri feudorum and wrote an influential Summa feudorum, completed c.1240. He is then attested to in Veronese documents in 1242 (as causidicus) and 1244 (as iudex and consiliarius), but all traces of him disappear thereafter. |

Text(s) |
| No. 01 | Ardizonian Recension of the Libri feudorum. 2nd recension of the Libri feudorum including J. Ard.’s additions at 2.25–51. |
| No. 02 | Revision of the Ardizonian Recension of the Libri Feudorum. Existence not known in manuscripts but indicated in the exegesis of this version in a Viennese manuscript; that text goes under the name of Compilatio feudorum secundum Ardizonem, or Liber Ardizonis. Seckel argued, and Lange has accepted, that the work provides strong evidence that J. Ard. re-worked and expanded his earlier version of the Libri Feudorum. Seckel also attempted to reconstruct this version. |
| No. 03 | Summa feudorum, 1227–40. Worked on over a period of years. Divided into two books of seven titles each. |
| No. 04 | Collectio Extravagantium, post 1234. Compilation of 179 extravagantes to the Libri feudorum, divided into seven titles. The majority of laws come from Lombard law, laws of the German emperors or kings, papal decretals, and also statutes from his hometown of Verona (which are not present in the Viennese manuscript but are known from citations in his Summa feudorum). Only a small portion of this collection made its way into J. Ard.’s version of the Libri feudorum. |
| No. 05 | Summa de decurionibus, post 1233. On Cod. 10.32(31), having to do with high-ranking legal advisers and their sons. Edited together with Azo’s Summa Codicis. |
| No. 06 | Summa quando et quibus debetur quarta pars. On Cod. 10.35(34); now lost. |
