Biography/Description

That P. studied at Orléans seems clear. He does not, however, seem to have studied with Jacobus de Ravanis, whom he, in some sense, succeeded as professor there. He left the university around 1296 and entered into the service of Philippe IV as maître des comptes. He was also a member of the parlement. In this period he accumulated a number of ecclesiastical benefices. In 1300, he went to Rome to celebrate the jubilee. On the way he passed through Bologna where he was invited to give a repetition, the text of which still survives in manuscript. He was a member of the influential group of ‘lawyers of the last Capetians’, along with, among others, Guillaume de Nogaret and Pierre Mornay. He was nominated successor of Mornay as keeper of the seal, but resigned the nomination, perhaps because he objected to the proposed process against the Templars. Eventually, for a brief period before his death in January of 1308, he became keeper of the seal, and, like Mornay, bishop of Auxerre.

Relatively few manuscripts of P’s juridical works survive. (The tangled history of the printed editions will be discussed below.) His importance lies in the fact that he was the vehicle through which the ideas of the school of Orléans, particularly about the role and importance of customary law, passed to the Bolognese: Dinus de Mugello, his student Cinus Pistoriensis (who cites him many times in his commentary on the Code), and, ultimately, to Cinus’ student, Bartolus de Saxoferrato. The mechanism of this transmission is not completely clear. Part of it was clearly the repetitio that P. gave at Bologna in 1300, and it is even possible that the young Cinus was the reporter of that repetitio. Both Dinus and Cinus, however, know more about the views of the school of Orléans than is contained in the repetitio. It seems highly likely that Dinus and Cinus had manuscripts of the Orléans commentaries, perhaps brought to Bologna by P. in 1300 or perhaps obtained by Dinus independently. Modern scholarship tends to regard Jacobus de Ravanis as a more original thinker than P., and has pointed out that works of the former were later attributed to the latter. Cinus, however, does seem to prefer P. to Jacobus.

Text(s)

 
No. 00

All texts. This list is derived from Soetermeer in DHJF, as are many of the notes.

 
No. 01

Repetitiones. At least 120 repetitiones on the Digestum vetus survive, and 94 on the Code. The list of repetitions on the Digestum vetus in Meijers (1959) 128–132 can be completed with with the aid of more recent publications by Bezemer, Waelkens, Soetermeer, and Feenstra/Duynstee. Those on the Code are listed by Bezemer in Pierre de Belleperche.

 
No. 02

Lectura Codicis. The work itself is known only in manuscript, but it has been analyzed by Bezemer.

 
No. 03

Lectura Digesti novi. The work is preserved partially in manuscript. For printed fragments, see below.

 
No. 04

Lectura Institutionum. The title suggest that it is commentary on the entire Institutes. It is not. That on the title De actionibus is important. For the rest, see Manuscripts and Early Editions. The early editions seem quite full, and probably are composites of P’s work and that of Jacobus de Ravanis, and perhaps others.

 
No. 05

Brocarda / Distinctiones / Quaestiones / Notae. Bartolus and Baldus cite many brocarda of P. For the printings, see Early Editions. The manuscripts contain various items labelled as ‘brocarda’, ‘distinctiones’, ‘quaestiones’, or ‘notae’.

 
No. 06

Letctura Digesti veteris / Lectura Infortiati. Both Albercus de Rosate and Baldus cite these. Perhaps they are referring to repetitiones.

 
No. 07

Consilia. Discussed in Bezemer (1985).

 
No. 08

Tractatus de verborum significatione. Although this work is occasionally attributed to P., it is highly unlikely that he wrote it. See Maffei (1998).

 
No. 09

Summa feudorum. Not to be confused with the work of a similar title, sometimes attributed to Jacobus de Ravanis, and discussed in the entry on him. Although there are printed editions that attribute this work to P., no known manuscript does so, nor does any modern scholar. Seckel attributed it to Johannes Fasolus (Pisanus), an attribution that Maffei, more recently, accepts. Meijers attributed it to Petrus de Accon (later reworked by Martinus Sillimani). According to MS San Lorenzo de El Escorial e.I.10, fol. 83, the author is Arnaldus Arpadella, who seems to have been a colleague of Martinus Sillimani. See further the entry on Martinus Sillimani..

 
No. 10

Uncertain. Category created to accommodate one manuscript, the contents of which are uncertain, but to which attention should be called.

Manuscript

Dolezalek, Manuscripta Juridica list 123 manuscripts with attributions to P. 83 of them are Additiones to various books of the Justinianic corpus. We list 38 of the remaining 41 here, where P. is listed as the sole author, even if the attribution is queried. While some of the attributions are probably mistaken, they tend to confirm the attributions in Texts, and to confirm the misattributions noted in Early Editions.

Repetitiones.

 
Early Printed Editions

Petri de Bella Pertica Auree ac singularissime . . . repetitiones XLVIII. Paris: Galliotus Du Pre, 1515 (online). Despite the title, this item contains 49 repetitions, 13 on the Digestum vetus and 36 on the Code. Fol. 244r–246r have a quaestio ‘de conseutudine in qualibet ecclesia collegiata’.

 
 

Repetitiones seu commentarii iuris civilis. Lyon: Servanius Lugduni a Porta, 1553. P’s repetitiones can be found in vols. 1, 7, and 8 of this massive collection. They are most easily located with the aid of Ascheri and Brizio, Index. Soetermeer says that nothing is found here that is not in Paris 1515.

 
 

Petri A Bella Pertica . . . Commentaria In Digestvm Novvm: Explicationes Singvlares, Sive . . . Repetitiones Eivsdem Petri A Bella Pertica, In Aliqvot Leges Digesti Veteris, et Codicis Iustiniani. Frankfurt: Feyrabend, 1571, 7–151 (second pagination) (online). Soetermeer says that this item is a reprint of Paris 1515. The entire work was reprinted in Opera iuridica rariora 10 (1968).

Lectura Codicis.

 
Early Printed Editions

Petri de Bella Perthica Juris vtriusq[ue] professoris subtilissimi Lectura i[n]signis et fecunda super Prima [et secunda] parte Codicis domini Justiniani. Paris: Petrus Gromorsus, 1519 (online). Despite the clear indication in the edition, this is not the work of P. but of Jacobus de Ravanis. The misattribution seems to have been deliberate. It was noted by Charles Du Moulin (Soetermeer, in DHJF, s.n. Revigny, Jacques de) and by many scholars since then, e.g. H. Kiefner (1963). The work was reprinted in Opera iuridica rariora 1 (1967) with the correct attribution, but in Frankfurt in the following year with the wrong one.

 
No. 03

Lectura Digesti novi.

 
Early Printed Editions

Petri A Bella Pertica . . . Commentaria In Digestvm Novvm. Frankfurt: Feyrabend, 1571 (online). Reprinted in Opera iuridica rariora 10 (1968). There is no reason to doubt the attribution, but Soetermeer suggests that it is incomplete. The title page and the contents mention commentaries on D.43, 44, 45, 46, and 49. Dolezalek’s list of the manuscripts does not promise anything more.

 
No. 04

Lectura Institutionum.

 
Early Printed Editions

Lectura aurea excellentissimi viri . . . Petri de Bella Pertica super librum Institutionum. Paris: N. Vaultier, ca. 1513 (online). Soetermeer reports Paris editions of 1512 and 1514. This is the only one in WorldCat, and it is undated.
