Innocent III, Pope (1198-1216) Lothario di Segni (born c.1161), Pope who exerted a great influence on the development of the medieval papacy and the canon law. Once reputed to have been a lawyer taught by the great canonist Huguccio, the work of Pennington and others strongly suggests that, whatever his legal talents, Innocent III was not a university-trained jurist by the standards of the time. Innocent studied theology in Paris and probably studied law for a short time at Bologna.

Innocent had a celestial image of the papacy as the intermediary between God and man. This image is best understood as theological rather than juristic, nevertheless, in the language of Innocent's sermons and decretal letters, he established the language and arguments with which jurists discussed the power and role of the papacy for more than a century.

Innocent III also effected important changes in the administration of the Church. The curia was greatly expanded during his pontificate, and the papacy began to gain control over the translation, deposition and renunciation of bishops and the collation of ecclesiastical benefices. Even though Innocent asserted, in the decretal Quanto personam, that the translation of a bishop was such a serious and extraordinary matter that it required divine authority, he translated many more bishops than any previous pope. Innocent asserted more control over prebends and, in the Fourth Lateran Council constitution De multa, the power of bishops to dispense from the prohibitions against pluralism was curtailed.

Innocent also asserted and defined (broadly) papal power to interfere in secular affairs in a series of decretals, Licet, Novit, Solet, Venerabilem, and Per Venerabilem.

Innocent's decretals, which effected tremendous changes in many areas of canon law, were collected by several canonists; Petrus Beneventanus's Compilatio tertia which Innocent himself authenticated for the law school at Bologna, and Johannes Teutonicus's Compilatio quarta were the most important.

Innocent IV, Pope (1243-54) (Sinibaldus Fieschi, Fliscus), born in Genoa before 1200. Innocent studied law Parma and perhaps at Bologna   Some accounts say that, early in his career, Innocent taught law in Bologna, but there is not evidence. He worked as a jurist at the papal curia from 1226 and was for some time the auditor of the court of audientia litterarum contradictarum. I. was made a cardinal by Pope Gregory IX in 1227. He was elected Pope in 1243 after a long, rancorous vacancy following the brief pontificate of Celestine IV (1241). Innocent IV died on December 7, 1254 in Naples.

Innocent IV's pontificate was notable for three things: a decisive struggle with the Emperor Frederick II, the Pope's extended absence from Rome, and for his contributions to the canon law. Innocent presided over the first general council of Lyon, in which the pope deposed Frederick II in absentia, and in which a number of important canons reforming aspects of ecclesiastical law and administration were enacted.

As a jurist, Innocent IV wrote a lengthy and extremely influential Apparatus on the Decretals of Gregory IX, which he worked on over a long period of time and was finished ca. 1245. He prepared three collections of his own decretals, which included the canons of Lyons I (Novelle Innocentii quarti). Innocent also wrote commentaries on his novelle, including an authoritative commentary on the Lyon deposition decree of Frederick II (Ad apostolicae dignitatis apicem, VI 2.14.2). An Ordo iudiciarius exists which, at least in an early form, has been attributed to Innocent IV, but it seems very doubtful that he wrote such a work.   There is still not certainty whether Innocent wrote the polemical tract 'Eger cui lenia(levia)'.  William of Ockham thought that he did, but Ockham is a late witness.  Short Biography of Innocent IV

Introductio ad Decretum 'In prima parte agitur', one of the oldest introductory summaries to the Decretum which precedes Gratian's text in several twelfth-century manuscripts. It was composed by an anonymous French canonist probably during the 1160's. There are also at least two copies in which it is transmitted seperately, attesting to its great success. As is true for other twelfth-century introductions, it does not cover de consecratione.

Jacobus de Albenga (Albanus, Albasco), from Albenga, a town on the gulf of Genoa. Jacobus was an advocate in an ecclesiastical case in 1210, so he must have been born by 1190. From 1220-30, Jacobus taught canon law at Bologna. Among his students were Henry of Susa (but not, as was once thought, Peter Sampson). He was promoted provost of Albenga and then to the Bishopric. Guilelmus Durantis referred to Jacobus as the Bishop of Faenza. Schulte believed this but Kuttner does not.

Jacobus wrote the most important apparatus to Compilatio quinta. His glosses to the Decretum appear in Glossa Palatina. Jacobus also wrote additiones to Tancred's gloss on Compilatio prima and some glosses to Compilatio quarta.

Johannes (Guidonis) de Ancona, wrote a Summa on the Decretales Gregorii IX (c. 1265-68). He was most likely a layman and a Roman lawyer and worked at the curia of the patriarch of Jerusalem when he composed the work. Johannes also served as a procurator for the Knights Templar. Johannes's Summa was an elaboration on the Summa of Goffredus Tranensis. In two places in his Summa, Johannes de Ancona refers to his own commentary on the Libri feudorum, but this work has never been found. Johannes's Summa was not influential.

Johannes de Deo, born in Silves, Portugal. He studied law at Bologna during the 1220's under Zoen Tencararius. From 1229 until at least 1255, he taught there and produced numerous canonistic writings, usually of a more introductory than a scholarly nature. Perhaps his most important work was a historical work on the study of canon law (No. 7). Johannes spent the last years of his life in Lisbon where he had become archdeacon in 1260. Johannes died in 1267.

Johannes Faventinus, born in Faenza, studied canon law in Bologna and became a professor around 1170. He immediately began his publishing career as a commentator and glossator of the Decretum, which continued undisturbed when he left Bologna, in 1174, to become a canon in Faenza. He probably has to be identified with the Bishop Johannes of Faenza (1177-90), who rules over his diocese just about the time when Huguccio's teachings began to gain predominance over his own. Unlike most of his colleagues, Johannes prepared the ground for his glossing activities by composing a Summa (ca. 1171). It consisted of little more than a compilation based on the two Summae of his predecessors, Rufinus and Stephan of Tournay. Modern scholars have often called him a plagiarist for that reason, despite the fact that Johannes fully acknowledged his indebtedness in the prologue. More importantly, the work was warmly welcomed by his audience, as is attested by the great number of surviving manuscripts, more twelfth century manuscripts even than for Huguccio. In addition, Johannes expressed his own doctrinal opinions in a vast amount of single glosses on all parts of Gratian's work. They also enjoyed great success and circulated widely, in what made Johannes the most cited canonist prior to Huguccio.

Johannes Galensis (John of Wales), little is known about Johannes's life except for the years arund 1210, when he suddenly appeared among the Bolognese decretalists. In 1210-12, he privately assembled a collection of papal decretals soon to be accepted as Compilatio II. Drawn from the collectiones of Alanus and Gilbertus, it was mainly concerned with supplying the chronological gap (1191-97) left by the preceding Compilationes I (1191) and III (1210), the latter of which had only included decretals from the first twelve years of Innocent III's pontificate (1198-1209). Johannes also wrote single glosses on it and produced the first apparatus on Compilatio III.

Johannes Teutonicus (Zemeke), ca. 1170-1245, taught canon law at Bologna ca. 1210-1212/1213-18. He studied law in Bologna in the last decades of the twelfth century and then began to teach there.  In 1216 Johannes visited the papal court and departed in anger. Kuttner and Pennington have argued that he was seeking papal endorsement for his decretal collection (Compilatio quarta). Although Innocent III did not grant his request, Johannes's collection followed Compilatio tertia into the accepted canon of Compilationes antiquae. He also provided a gloss-apparatus for it, which is the only one ever to be composed on this (perhaps) reluctantly accepted collection. After his departure from Bologna, he became scholasticus(1220), provost (1223), and dean (1235) at S. Mariae in Halberstadt. Later, he advanced to the position of provost (1241) in the cathedral church of Halberstadt.  A legend in Halberstadt credits him with being an important figure in the building of the new gothic cathedral.   His tomb and fifteenth-century epitaph (probably based on an earlier one) are in the Cathedral of Halberstadt.

As a canonist, Johannes was quite capable as a synthesizer. He managed to draw together the contributions of Huguccio, Laurentius, and the 'Ordinaturus magister' apparatus so successfully in his gloss to the Decretum that it became the Glossa ordinaria. But he could also be independent and creative, as in his gloss to the constitutions of the Fourth Lateran Council (1215) and - even more so - to Compilatio tertia.

John of Kent, an Anglo-Norman canonist of the late twelfth century. J. Goering has suggested his identity with Master John of Kent who in 1204 became chancellor of St. Paul's Cathedral in London, and later (ca. 1213/14)seems to have entered the service of the Archbishop of Canterbury. At any rate, the canonist was still alive after 1215, since John's recently discovered Summa on Penitence (ca. 1212-20) includes several passages invoking the Fourth Lateran Council. Therein, the author reveals a canonist's approach to the topic. Some canonistic quaestiones carrying solutions ascribed to 'Jo. de chent' are further reported in the Quaestiones Londinenses (see ibid.)

TEXTS:1. Summa de penitentia EDITION: None. The prologue and the incipits of book I-III have been printed by J. Goering, BMCL 13 (1983) 22-24, also a list of the rubrics (book I-III), ibid. 29-31 (transcribed from the only known, complete copy in MS London, Brit. Libr. Royal).

John of Tynemouth, a prominent canonist of the Anglo-Norman school. His lecturing on Gratian's Decretum is amply reported in a Cambridge manuscript. Several quaestiones of his have also survived in written form. He was also active as a commentator of English decretal collection preceding Compilatio I. All of these materials, which represent reportationes rather than writings of his own, derive from John's teaching during the years 1188-1198, probably at Oxford. After joining the household of the archbishop of Canterbury, around 1199, and a stay at Lincoln (ca. 1206-15) as a canon of the cathedral chapter, he returned to Oxford, in 1215, as an archdeacon. There he died in 1221.

Laborans, born at an unknown date at Pontormo near Florence, studied in France and received the cardinalate in 1173. Besides several theological treatises, he spent twenty years (1162-82) working on his Compilatio decretorum, which aimed at re-arranging Gratian's Decretum in a more orderly fashion. Gratian's material, plus a minor amount of other legal and biblical (!) texts (with the conciliar statutes of Lateran III [1179] added in the margin), was re-distributed into six books and subdivided into 'partes' and titles. Like Gratian, Laborans presented the single chapters along with his own comment. He also provided cross-references. Although Laborans transformed Gratian into a much better organized text, the Decretum was by this time too well established as to be replaced by the new compilation. In fact, it received no attention at all among contemporaries. Laborans died ca. 1190.

Laurentius Hispanus, fl. 1200-48, taught canon law at Bologna (c.1200-1214); archdeacon of Orense (1214-1218); bishop of Orense from 1218 to his death in 1248. Laurentius was an important and innovative legal thinker whose writings betray a lively, sarcastic wit. Laurentius wrote two influential works, the Glossa Palatina on Gratian's Decretum, and an apparatus of glosses on Compilatio tertia. Laurentius' glosses from these works were cited occasionally in the Glossa Ordinaria to the Decretum and extensively in the Glossa Ordinaria to the Decretals of Gregory IX, as well as in the works of later canonists. In fact, a revision of Johannes Teutonicus's Glossa Ordinaria on the Decretum, called the 'Laurentiustype', was produced in the mid-thirteenth century which incorporated much material added from Laurentius which Johannes had not used. And at the end of the thirteenth century, the canonist Guido de Baysio incorporated a great deal of Laurentian material into his enormous Decretum-commentary, the Rosarium.

Laurentius also wrote glosses to Compilatio prima which can only be found in the apparatus of Tancred. In addition to these works, Stickler has demonstrated that Paris, B.N. MS lat. 15393 contains an independent reportatio of Laurentius lectures on the Decretum written by someone who heard them.

Laurentius's numerous references to Azo and Bernardus Compostellanus suggest that these two were among his teachers. An early work, a Distinctiones Decretorum, shows the influence of Ricardus Anglicus. Tancred and perhaps Sinnibaldo Fieschi (Innocent IV) were his most important students.

TEXTS:1. Distinctiones decretorum, in Monte Cassino Bibl. Abbaziale 313 pp. 69-84. Laurentius' authorship remains doubtful.

2. Tractatus de penitentia, Laurentius wrote a large number of glosses on the de penitentia many of which he gathered together into a self-standing apparatus. This work circulated commonly with the Glossa Palatina and with other Decretum apparatus. García y García counted over two-hundred and fifty manuscripts containing Laurentius's glosses on the de penitentia. Unfortunately, these collections of glosses do not conform to clear recensions. It may be that a large number of glosses which Laurentius presumably left out of his apparatus or wrote later on were added to it piecemeal by canonists over many years, making for numerous sets of glosses conforming to no apparent development. see García, Laurentius Hispanus.

3. Glossa Palatina, an important apparatus on Gratian's Decretum named for the Vatican manuscript in which it was first identified. The Glossa Palatina, which quotes many glosses from Bernardus Compostellanus, Ricardus, Huguccio, Sylvester and others, was almost certainly compiled by Laurentius. Alfons Stickler produced an intricate argument establishing Laurentius' authorship, the central point of which is that Glossa Palatina, despite the massive number of his glosses which it contains, has no sigla at all for Laurentius, but many sigla for the other canonists that are quoted. Only Laurentius' authorship of the work could account for this.

DATE/PLACE: 1210-18 in Bologna (revised, but never completed)

EDITION: None, although some 30 pages of glosses have been published by Stickler.

Lecturae decretalium Aurelianenses, contain a series of lecture notes which were taken at Orleans around 1285-87. The materials gathered are largely anonymous, while the remainder attests to the canonistic teaching of several jurists, who are otherwise known only for their civilian works. Martin Bertram has called the compilation the most important testimony to the school of canon law at Orleans.

Liber Anthocrisus, is the title of a versification of Gratian's Decretum. Nothing is known about the author, but the date of composition can be inferred from the fact that the text is preserved in a Montecassino manuscript along with a marginal gloss containing references to the Compilationes antiquae. It was probably composed prior to 1234.

Lyons Council II (1274) Constitutiones, promulgated by Pope Gregory X in 1275. At least seven different commentaries were written on this collection of constitutiones and nouellae. The apparatus are: 1. an anonymous commentary with the incipit, 'Hoc dicit quod spiritus sanctus', written by Sept. 1275; 2. Johannes Anguissola de Cesena by 1275; 3. Boatinus of Mantua (late 1277 or later); 4. Franciscus de Albano, by the Spring of 1277; 5. Garsias Hispanus (the Glossa Ordinaria) in 1282; 6. an anonymous commentary with the incipit, 'Gregorius salutem. Si qui erant excommunicati non absoluuntur'; and 7. Guillelmus Durantis, written in 1289 or later. This collection was rendered obsolete by the promulgation in 1298 of the Liber Sextus by Boniface VIII.

Marcoaldus (Marquard von Ried, M. de Padua, Marcoardus Teutonicus), magister decretorum at the University of Padua, ca. 1226-36, later provost of the collegiate chapter Mattsee (1240). Around 1229, Marcoaldus composed a metric praise of Frederick II, which showed that he was strongly in favor of the imperial cause in its contest with the papacy. At the same time, the poem attest to Marcoaldus' expertise in canon law through its skillful use of legal terminology. That he was a renowned canonist is further suggested by the fact that the copies of Compilatio V sent by Pope Honorius III to Padua in 1226 were addressed to 'Magistro Marcoaldo et universibus scholaribus Padue commorantibus.' In fact, glosses of Marcoaldus on Compilatio survive in two manuscripts.

Martinus Zamorensis (Martin Arias?), bishop of Zamora 1193-1217 (according to A. García y García). His performance as the chief administrator of the bishopric seems to have met with severe criticism, including that of Innocent III in a letter of 1198 (Register 1.58). But on the same occasion, Innocent praised him as an 'expert in civil as well as in canon law'. Several of the glosses he wrote while teaching at Bologna have survived in the manuscripts, and some of his opnions are reported in the Glossa Palatina. Stephan Kuttner has further found glosses and notabilia signed by 'mar.' in a copy of Compilatio IV. If they were Martin's, this would prolong his teaching career at least until 1216. Stephan Kuttner therefore has suggested his identity with Martinus Roderici, Arias's successor at Zamora (1217-38).

Monaldus of Capo d'Istria (d.1285), a Franciscan and author of a penitential Summa which he completed before 1274. The work borrowed much from the Summa of Raymond of Penyafort and the writings of Henricus de Segusia (Hostiensis), but introduced a new method in presenting the material. Instead of the logical order that had been adopted by the older writers, Monaldus resorted to an alphabetical arrangement. In this, he was to be followed by most of the later penitential authors.

Notabilia Ad notitiam contrariorum (before 1234), according to Stephan Kuttner a brief compilation not referring to any canonistic textbook in particular.

Hence it should better be entitled De modis solvendi contraria.
