Biography/Description

Martinus first appears as a doctor of civil law at the University of Pavia in 1430. He lectured there on Roman law at least for the years 1439–46, before moving to Siena (1446–48). His consilia indicate that he was often consulted as one of the leading jurists in Northern Italy. Other stations in his teaching career were Bologna (1148–49), where most of his works on canon law were written, Parma (1450) and Ferrara (1450–53). He died, probably at Bologna, in 1453.
