Biography/Description |
|
Taught canon law at Bologna and Vicenza (c.1209), before he became bishop of Burgo de Osma (1210–25). Composed glosses on Gratian’s Decretum and Compilatio prima. Most of his teachings, however, are reported indirectly in contemporary gloss-apparatuses such as the Glossa Palatina, Ius naturale, and the Glossa Ordinariaon the Decretum. |
