Biography/Description |
|
One of the oldest collections of brocarda, written c.1180 by an anonymous (French?) canonist. It consists of two parts. The first offers a monograph entitled De presumptionibus and elaborates on (or precedes?) the parallel teachings to be found in the Summa of Sicardus of Cremona (on C.6 q.5). Then follows a rather loose series of brocarda on a variety of legal topics. Due to the miscellaneous character of this second part, the manuscripts often include interpolations and other variations. The author of the work also wrote the Notabilia Argumentum quod religiosi. |
