Biography/Description |
|
Born 1401 in Kues on the Moselle, Nicolaus studied law at Padova 1417–23 and was promoted to doctor decretorum in 1423. Therafter, Nicolaus taught canon law briefly at Köln. From 1425, he was serving as the secretary to the Archbishop of Trier. He refused appointment as a professor of canon law at the University of Leuven in 1428 and again in 1435. When the see of Trier fell vacant in 1429, Nicolaus supported the claim of Ulrich of Manderscheid against the papal choice, Hrabanus of Helmstedt. In 1430, Nicolaus carried the fight to the Council of Basel. Although unable to prevail, he became a major figure at the council. Nicolaus proposed approaches to the Hussites which were adopted by the Council. At first, he supported the council against the Pope, but as dissent and rancor grew and the opportunity for reunification with the Orthodox church presented itself, he switched his support to the pope. He was one of three commissioners sent to Constantinople to negotiate in 1437. Nicolaus was elevated to the Cardinalate in 1448. In 1451 he travelled through Germany as a papal legate on a misssion to reform churches. In 1452, he was made bishop of Bressanone. For the next twelve years, he attempted to liberate the diocese from the domination of Duke Sigismund. On two occasions the dispute erupted into violence which forced Nicolaus to flee to Rome. On August 11, 1464, as Nicolaus was returning from his second flight he fell ill and died in the city of Todi. Nicolaus Cusanus was primarily a philosopher and theologian. Nevertheless, he was trained as a canon law jurist, and was employed as such and briefly taught canon law in Cologne. His library includes a manuscript of glosses on Book II of the Decretales of Gregory IX by his teacher Prosdocimus Conti which has marginal glosses by Nicolaus himself. His De concordantia catholica is more a work of philosophy than of law, but many of its arguments and authorities are canonistic in origin. Nicolaus also wrote, during his involvement with Basliean conciliarism, a few sermons or tractatus on the authority of the council and the pope which have a signifigant canon law content. In addition to these identified works, Kenneth Pennington reports that manuscripts of the Decretum and the Decretales in the library at Kues contain a substantial number of marginal glosses written by Nicolaus himself. |
