Description: | Henry of Segusio (d. 1271) studied law at the University of Bologna, and taught it at the University of Paris. He became Cardinal-Bishop of Ostia in 1261, from which derives his common name 'Hostiensis'. His most important writings are commentaries on the Decretals of Popes Gregory IX and Innocent IV. This finely illuminated copy has an ownership inscription and anathema of St. Albans Abbey, as well as the arms of abbey on the first page: it was therefore almost certainly made at St. Albans.
This initial 'D' marks the start of Book 2: it shows two groups of academics in thoughtful debate. | License: | http://www.bl.uk/services/copy/permission.html | Rights holder: | British Library | Source: | Collect Britain | Identifier: | http://www.collectbritain.co.uk/personal... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
