Biography/Description |
|
An Italian born in Sesso (near Reggio Emilia), received his canonistic training at Bologna during the 1180s, where Huguccio and Bazianus were his principal teachers. The latter he seems to have identified with the Roman lawyer Johannes Bazianus. After leaving Bologna for brief stays at Cremona and Montpellier, he eventually appeared as the head of the first school of canon law on Spanish soil, at Palencia. Linda Fowler-Magerl (1984) has attributed to him three lectures from that period, preserved in a Barcelona manuscript which previously (and even subsequently, in Lange) were ascribed to the more famous civilian Hugolinus. They all treat aspects of procedure: appeals, the recusation of judges, and witnesses. Hugolinus composed them at some time after the death of Pope Gregory VIII (Dec. 1187) and before 1200. Perhaps it is also possible to identify Ugolinus with the later, homonymous bishop of Vercelli (1214–1235). |
