Biography/Description |
|
Born c.1250 in Haslach/Kinzigtal, Johannes studied theology in Paris, possibly under Thomas Aquinas. He began legal studies in Strasbourg by 1272 under Ulrich von Strasbourg. Johannes had entered the Dominican order, and in 1280 he became the prior and Lector of the Dominican house in Freiburg. In addition to preaching, Johannes was a very active writer, initially engaged in adapting the penitential works of St. Raymond of Peñafort. He provided an index to Raymond’s Summa and added a series of questions, before he undertook a penitential Summa of his own in 1290. Johannes also produced shorter versions of this work, and supplied an appendix, the Statuta, inspired by the appearance of the new legislation of Boniface VIII in 1298. Johannes died in Freiburg in 1304. |
