Pacificus de Cerano (Pacificus de Novara/Pacifico da Cerano, c. 1420-1482) Beatus
OFMObs. Orphaned young in his life, he entered the Observant branch of the order in 1445 (at Novara) after advanced studies in Roman and Canon law. He became priest and developed into a renowned preacher. Following in Bernardine of Siena’s footsteps, he spent much energy in further renovation of the Franciscan order in Southern Italy. Also active as crusade preacher (against the Turcs). In May 1481, the Cismontan Observant general chapter made him commissionar for Sardinia, where he died before 14 June, 1482. Based on his experience as priest, confessor and preacher, Pacifico wrote in 1473 his Summula de pacifica/Somma pacifica. This work, which was printed two times in the later fifteenth century and at least five more times before the Council of Trente (and came out in a revised form thereafter), amounts to a straightforward confessor manual, showing incumbent confessors how to teach the articles of faith, the sacraments, the Ten Commandments,and to give the faithful basic behavioral guidelines that cohere with their social status (married or not, professional lawyers, doctors, masters and students, merchants, bankers, artisans priests, bishops, etc.). the work also provides interrogatory schemes that confessors can use for his stratified flock of penitents. At a more general level, the Summula subsequently provides an introduction to the tasks and obligations of the confessor, it lists the penitential canons, as well as papal and episcopal excommunications. For authorization and reference purposes, the work provides canonist and theological sources in the margin.

Argentine Franciscan friar from Buenos Aires. Joined the Franciscans in his home town. After his studies for the priesthood and his theological formation, he became lector and preacher. In 1780, he was appointed doctor of philosophy at the university of Cordoba. There he soon occupied numerous chairs (philosophy, theology, canon law) and also took up charges as chancellor and university rector in the period that saw the move towards independence of Argentinia. Pantaleon also acted as rector of the international College of Notre Dame of Montserrat (Cordoba). Aside from these university tasks, Pantaleon took up several functions within his order (provincial, synodal examinator of the Cordoba diocese etc.). During the independence struggle, Pantaleon proved to be a devout patriot and advocate of independence, going as far as to give nationalist sermons in the Cathedral of Cordoba in May 1814 and April 1818, and to preside over patriottic funerals of policians and military figures involved with the independence movement.

Paschalis Victoriensis (Pascal de Vitoria, eerste helft 14e eeuw)
Spaanse minderbroeder uit de Victoria custody (Baskenland) die in 1333 met zijn collega Gonsalvus Trantorna naar Azië (Turkmenistan) werd uitgezonden. Na een pilgrimstocht naar Assisi (Portiuncola), namen ze de boot in Venetië. Een jaar lang verbleven ze in Saraï, in het Khanaat van Kiptchac (ten noorden van de Kaspische Zee). Daar leerde Vittoria de mongoolse talen en het schrift dat hij voor zijn missie nodig had. Trokken vervolgens verder naar Al-Malik, ten zuid-oosten van het Balkal meer, waar zich een Franciskaans episcopaat bevond onder de bescherming van Khan Kazan. Na de moord op Khazan werd diens plaats ingenomen door de fanatieke Moslim Ali-Sultan (1337), die op fundamentalisch-Islamitische wijze met geweld een eind maakte aan alle niet-islamitische uitingen van religie. Pascal de Vitoria werd gearresteerd, samen met enkele Franciscaanse medebroeders en bischop Richard van Bourgondië. Na te zijn gemarteld werden ze geëxecuteerd ca. 24 juni 1339 [Cf. de reactie van paus Clement VI op het bericht van hun dood volgens de Franciscaanse geschiedschrijver Johannes van Winterthur, MGH Scriptores Rerum Germanicarum Nova Series 3 (Hanover, 1924), 208]. Pascal deed verslag van zijn missie-activiteiten in zijn Brevis relatio sui itineris, rerumque a se gestarum per modum epistolae ad Fratres Conventus, et Custodice Victoriensis. Dit verslag in briefvorm, verzonden uit Al-Malik (10 augustus 1338), en gericht aan zijn medebroeders in Vitoria, is in verschillende oude kronieken van de orde opgenomen, en is ook herhaldelijk geediteerd in de twintigte eeuw.

Paulinus Venetus (Paulinus Minorita, ca. 1270/1274 - 1344)
Italian friar. Active in the Padua convent (December 1293). Priest around 1300, and lector in 1301 (probably (also considering his age) after he had passed through a non-degree lectorate course at a Franciscan studium generale) . In October 1304 mentioned as custos of the Venice custody. Between 1305 and 1307, he was active as inquisitor of the March of Treviso. Between 1315 and 1316, the Venetian republic used Paulinus as ambassador at the neapolitan court of king Robert of Anjou. In 1321, Paulinus can be found at Aix-en-Provence. By then, he is already papal penitentiary. In this function, he examines (in 1321) on request of pope John XXII the Liber Secretorum Fidelium Crucis of Marino Sanudo. The pope also uses Paulinus as papal ambassador at Venice. In 1324, pope John XXII appoints Paulinus to the neapolitan episcopate Pozzuoli [Cf. BF V (Rome, 1898), n. 541], a position that Paulinus is able to take up in 1326. During his years as bishop, Paulinus frequents the court of Robert of Anjou and becomes a favorite counsellor of the king. Paulinus dies at Pozzuoli before the first of July, 1344. During the years of his episcopate, Paulinus became rather active as historian, chronographer and geographer. He produced three large, densely illustrated and indexed chronicles, which can be seen as three different versions with changing organisational matrices. These chronicles are the Chronologia magna (mss. Venice, Bibl. Marc. Cod. Lat. 399; Paris Bibliothèque Nationale Lat. 4939), the Notabilium Historiarum Epitoma (ms. Florence, Laurentiana Plut. 21 sin 4), and the Satyrica gestarum rerum, regum atque regnorum et summorum pontificum historia (o.a. ms. Cessena, Bibl. S. Francisci; ms. Vat. Lat. 1960; Prague, National Museum XVI A 8 (4 a 10, 65)), Some of the chronicles also contain additional treatises, such as a Provinciale Ordinis Fratrum Minorum (a list of Franciscan provinces, custodies and convents; ms. Vat. Lat. 1960; ms. Bamberg, Hist. 4/2 E III 11), a Mappa Mundi, a Provinciale Romane Curie (a list of dioceses and ecclesiastical provinces) a Tractatus de Diis Gentium et Fabulis Poetarum, De Providentia et Fortuna, a Tractatus de Regimine Rectoris, and a Tractatus de Ludo Scacorum [cf. See Heullant-Donat]. To him was also ascribed a Liber de Terra Sancta, yet that is the third book of Marino Sanudo’s Liber secretorum fidelium crucis.

Paulus de Sancto Spirito (David King, d. 1665)
OFM. Irish friar. Son of a secretary of Lord Upper Ossory. After a thorough education, David King entered the order and obtained the name of Paul of the Holy Spirit. Received a further education in Latin, Greek and Hebrew under the Franciscan friar Bonaventure Baron. Due to unlucky circumstances, he was emprisoned, and was only freed after the intervention of Luke Wadding. In 1641, he is found at Brindisi, southern Italy, where he held a post as professor of moral theology. After the revolt of the Catholic confederation of Kilkenny, David/Paulus returned to Ireland, where, in 1644, he was the guardian of the Kilkenny convent. He combined this position with a lectorship of moral theology. Soon, the apostolic nuncius Rinuccini made him the guidesman of all the Irish Franciscans. Due to conflicts between leaders of the Catholic confederation and the nuncius (a conflict in which David/Paulus supported Rinuccini, who did not want to compromise with the English), David/Paulus had to flee to Louvain, where he composed polemical pamphlets against Rinuccini’s Irish detractors (such as the Epistola Nobilis Hiberni). Sometime later, David/Paulus became the guardian of the S. Isidoro convent (Rome) and thereafter secretary of the order’s procurator general. He died at Rome in 1665. On top of his polemical pamphlets, he wrote a number of other works, of which at least one (Idea Cosmographiae) found its way to the printing press.

`Paulus'Gualdensis (Anonymus Umber) (ca. 1180-ca. 1335)
Minderbroeder uit Umbrië, auteur van de Chronicon Umbriae, een grote regionaal georiënteerde wereldkroniek, opgebouwd rondom historische sleutelfiguren - Vauchez stelt voor om de naam te laten voor wat hij is en hem in het vervolg maar Anonymus umber te noemen (Vauchez, `Fratri Minori, eremitismo e santità laica', 274-5). De kroniek is heel nadrukkelijk op Umbrië en Gualdo gericht en bevat verbazend weinig jaartallen. In oudere literatuur wordt het Chronicon vaak verward met het eerder geschreven Legendarium van dezelfde auteur, dat deels hetzelfde materiaal moet hebben omvat. Van dit Legendarium en van het Chronicon zijn geen autografen of vroege afschriften bewaard gebleven. Er zijn een aantal late copieën bekend (ms Foligno, Bibl. del Seminario Fonds L. Jacobilli A, VI, 6; ms Gubbio, Bibl. della cancelleria vescovile. Credenza I; ms Rome, Bibl. Vat. Fonds Ottoboni Lat. 2666; ms Foligno, Bibl. Communale F 55.3.190; ms Rome, Bibl. Vat. Chigi G VI, 157). De kroniek van Paulus is gebruikt door zijn medebroeder Elemosina voor diens eigen eigen kroniek.

Paulus Scriptoris (Wilensis/Suebus, d. 1505)
Born in Weil (Schwaben). Entered the Franciscan Observants in the province of Strasbourg. Was sent to Paris to study theology. Studied under the Scotist Stephan Brulefer. Back in Germany (before 1488), he became lector at the studium at Tübingen (studium established there in 1447, together with the foundation of the U. of Tübingen). Glasberger provides a description of a public disputation held in Neuerenberg at the provincial chapter (1488). In this disputation, which was chaired by Stephan Brulefer, Paulus Scriptoris was assigned the task to defend several theses chosen for the occasion [AF, II, 504ff.]. Although the Franciscan studium at Tübingen apparently was not fully incorporated in the university, there is evidence that Paulus drew a wide and mixed academic and non-academic audience with his lectures on Scotus and on astronomical, geographical and mathematical topics [for instance on Ptolemy and the astrolabe. He also designed a globe for Johann von Dalberg. See on this the descriptions in Konrad Pellikan, Chronikon, ed. B. Riggenbach (Basel, 1877), 12.] Aside from these teaching activities, Paulus also engaged in the study of Greek in the school of Reuchlin and stimulated his own students (such as Konrad Pellikan, Staupitz and Eck) to engage in the study of Hebrew. Before and after 1498, Paulus was guardian of the Tübingen convent. Also elected definitor for his province. Due to his apparently critical stance in sermons and teachings and some seemingly unorthodox statements, he lost his teaching- and administrative positions in shortly after 1500, when the provincial chapter sent him to Basel and forbade him to continue his teachings (though he was allowed to write). Pellican would later perceive a resemblance between the views of Scriptoris and those of Luther. Fearing further disciplinary action, Scriptoris travelled in 1502 to Vienna and Rome, where he tried to find support. By 1505, Paulus Scriptoris was rehabilitated and safely returned to Heilbron. He was about to be sent to a lectureship in Toulouse the general vicar Martialus Brulier, but was first asked by the bishop of Basel (Christoph von Utenheim) to assist in the reform of the Cluniacencian monastry St. Alban in Basel. On his way there, Paulus Scriptoris died in Kaiserberg [see AF, VI, 283, n. 4, 286, n. 1]. In his theological writings, Paulus Scriptoris followed the `via antiqua' (esp. Bonaventure) and the teachings of Scotus. This seems to have been the general trend in the Observant province of Cologne in the later fifteenth century [see: V. Heynck. `Zur Rechtfertigungslehre des Kontroverstheologen Kaspar Schatzgeyer, O.F.M.', Franz. Stud., 28 (1941), 13, 135f.]

Pelbartus Ladislaus de Temesvar (d. 1504)
OFMObs. Studied in Krakow (bacc. 1463 and probably doctor of theology in 1471). Entered the observants probably before finishing his theological studies. From 1483 onwards active in the convent of St. John in Buda as lector, preacher and author. Died there on 22 January 1504. Especially famous for his sermon collections, as well as for his commentaries on OT and NT books (esp. on the religious songs contained in the Bible). His final, synthetic, theological work - the Aureum Sacrae Theologiae Rosarium - was finished (book IV) by his pupil Oswald de Lasko.

Petrus ad Boves (Petrus Abbo/Aux Boeufs/ c. 1368 - 1425)
OMConv. Theologian and preacher. Bacc. Sent. in Paris (1403). Received the licence of theology 1403 and listed as doctor of theology in 19 August 1404.

Throughout his life a partisan of the dukes of Burgundy (against Orléans) and counsellor of the burgundian duke Jean sans Peur. Since 1404 confessor of the French queen Isabella of Bavaria (the wife of king Charles VI). Also confessor of duke Stephen of Bavaria and the daughter of the Count Palatine of the Rhine. Famous exegete, preacher and orator at the U. of Paris and at the French royal court. Spoke out against pope Benedict XIII, and active at the Council of Paris (1413-1414). Collaborated with Johannes Parvus/Jean Petit on the second Defensorium, in which the asassination of Louis of Orléans (the brother of the King, 23-11, 1407) by order of Jean sans Peur is justified [cf.

Petrus Alba [Pedro de Alba y Astorga] (1602, Zamora - 5, 04, 1667, Louvain)
OFMObs. Spanish friar. As a child, he travelled with his parents from Spain to Peru. Once a member of the Observants of the Doce Apóstoles province in Peru, he came back to Europe, and was commissioned to order the archives and libraries of the order. This led to the publication of two volumes entitled Indiculum Bullarii Seraphici (Rome, 1655). The other eight envisaged volumes did not appear. Back in Spain, he abandoned all projects to devote himself completely to the defense of the immaculate conception. His archival and theological investigations on this topic did not find a printer in Spain. But in 1661 Belgian Franciscans in Louvain and Namur provided him with facilities to publish his works. For this prurpose, Pedro established a Typographia Immaculatae Conceptionis, which was closed already in 1667 by Royal order, thanks to machinations of the Dominicans. But in these five years (1661-1667), Pedro was able to edit several works, which form an important source for the history of the immaculate conception.

Petrus Aureoli (ca. 1275-1322, Avignon) doctor facundus
Theologian. Probably born in the neighbourhood of Gourdon. In his youth friend of the later pope John XXII. Entered the order in the Aquitaine province. Studied at Paris (1304), where he apparently heared the lectures of Scotus. Took part in the 1311 and 1312 usus pauper discussions. Taught as lector at the Franciscan studia of Bologna (1312), and Toulouse (1314). On the general chapter of 1316, Peter was chosen by Michael of Cesena to absolve his Sentences readings pro gradu at Paris. Obtained the magisterium in 1318 (Cf. ppal request of Pope John XXII addressed to the chancellor of the university of Paris). Regent master at Paris between November 1318 and Summer 1320. Elected provincial minister of Aquitania (end 1320) and Archbishop of Aix on 27 February 1321. He died on 10 January 1322 in Avignon. [Vertegenwoordiger van het zogenaamde conceptualisme en empiricisme. Criticicaster van Thomas Wylton, Herveus Natalis en Scotus. Zijn filosofisch-theologische oeuvre gezien als overgang naar het werk van Ockham. Van hem zijn vele filosofische en theologische werken bekend. Zijn epistemologie, ontvouwd in zijn Sentences commentaar staat nu in de belangstelling. Zijn belangrijkste exegetische werk is het Compendium sensus litteralis totius sacrae Scripturae, dat in vele handschriften, oude drukken en edities is overgeleverd. Dit compendium bevat ook een sterk historiserende uitleg van de apocalyps. Zich deels baserend op het apocalypscommentaar van Alexander Bremensis geeft Aureoli een zeer orthodoxe kerkgeschiedenis met een helder antagonisme tussen de Kerk en de machten van het kwaad die haar belagen. Aureoli is verder interessant als een van de eerste grote verdedigers van de onbevlekte ontvangenis en voor his verdediging van de onfeilbaarheid van de Kerk op het vlak van het geloof. Deze onfeilbare Kerk heeft in de paus, de vicarius Christi, zijn representant en bewaker van het ware geloof. Komt dicht in de buurt van latere pauselijke onfeilbaarheidstheses].

Italian friar from Mantua
manuscripts/editions
Sermones (1485): MS Padua, Biblioteca Universitaria cod. 1563 [Contains two series of sermons: 25 sermons by an anonymus Franciscan friar, to which Pietro Arrivabene added 28 sermons de sanctis of his own. A lengthy description of this manuscript is provided by Cenci, 1968, 144ff. & 1969, 115ff.]; MS Padua, Biblioteca Universitaria cod. 2056 ff. 496r-505v [A sermon on the blood of Christ, probably inserted by Pietro Arrivabene himself in an existing sermon collection that was in his possession (=the remainder of the manuscript). He probably held the sermon on the blood of Christ in Mantua, in 1480.
Meditationes Passionis Christi (Milan (?): Leonardo Pachel, c. 1488) [The work begins as follows on f. 1a: ‘Incipit prohemium in meditationibus passionis domini nostri Iesu Christi, ubi miles devotus hortatur ad ipsius domini nostri Iesu amorem et ipsius beneficia continue recolenda precipueque ad meditandam ipsius sacratissimam passionem.’ In all, it contains 22 meditations, based on previously held passion sermons. Contrary to the early editions of the famous Meditationes Passionis Christi, Pietro Arrivabene did not schematise his passion devotion meditations according to the seven canonical hours. Instead, he provides a more or linear narrative with subsequent meditations of the Passion.]
editions of several liturgical works:
Breviarum secundum ritum romanum, castigatum per fr. Petrum Arrivabenum ord. s. Francisci (Venice: Georgius Arrivabene, 1497); Breviarum franciscanum secundum ritum romanum, diligentissime emendatum per ven. Religiosum fr. Petrum Arrivabenum ord. Min. De Observantia (Venice: Lucas Antonius de Giunta & Joannes Emerici de Spira, 1498, 1499 & 1500). Cf. Gesamtkatalog der Wiegendrucke 32, 33, 35, 86 (nos. 5118, 5120, 5121, 5169).
Missale iuxta morem Romane Ecclesie, expletum solertique diligentia catigatum per fr. Petrum Arrivabenum,ord. min. De Obs. (Venice: Lucas Antonius de Giunta & Joannes Emerici de Spiri, 1497). Revised editions appeared in 1498, 1501, 1502, 1504, 1506 and 1508
Edition of a Summa, that is a selection of the works of John of Wales:
Summa de regimine vite humane seu Margarita doctorum, ed. Pietro Arrivabene da Canneto (Venice: Giorgio Arrivabene, 1496). After the frontispiece and an commendatory letter by minister general Guillelmus Astensis, the work starts of with a lengthy Tabula per ordinem alphabeti omnium in Summa Ioannis Valensis contentorum, ff. 3r-57v. This is followed by (selections of ) John of Wales’ Communiloquio (new numbering, ff. 1a-166d), his Compendiloquium de Vitis Illustrium Philosophorum (f. 167a-232b), his Breviloquium de Philosophia sive Sapientia (ff. 233a-239c), his Breviloquium de Virtutibus Antiquorum Principum et Philosophorum (ff. 240a-259d), and his Ordinarium Vite Religiose sive Alphabetum (ff. 260a-305b).
Opera devotissima continente le piissime meditazioni della passione di Cristo, cum aliquanti capituli devotissimi novamente composti (Mantua: Francescho di Bruschi, 1511). It is an Italian translation of his own Meditationes, with at the end an additional Pasion in versi vulgari pervenuta a le man mie, consisting of 52 terzines. On f. 5r-v, Pietro makes clear: ‘…ho pensato in questa mia ultima età reducere in sermon vulgare le devotissime meditatione, che sono vintidue, de l’acerbissima morte et passion de Christo, da me predicate quaranta anni lo venere sancto in varie et diverse cità et terre de Italia non senza grande effusione et spargimento de lachrime et mie et de li popili audienti.’ The translation was dedicated to the Poor Clare Chiara da Montefeltro (=Isabella di Rimini, the widow of Roberto Malatesta, lord of Rimini. After his death, sabella entered the order of Poor Clares in Urbino and later transferred to the Poor Clares of Ferrara).
Italian translation of Bonaventure’s Legenda Major:
Legenda de Sancto Francesco composta per el serafico Sancto Bonaventura et reducta in volgare per el venerabile patre fr. Pietro da Canedo (Venice: Gregorio de Gregori, 1522). This translation received a new edition in the 20th century: Legenda de Sancto Francesco composta per el serafico Sancto Bonaventura, reducta in volgare per el venerabile patre frate Pietro da Canedo, ed. Michele Faloci Pulignani (Assisi, 1927). Faloci Pulignani remarked that Pietro’s translation might be the most faithful of the various surviving fifteenth- and sixteenth-century translations of the Legenda Major.

Petrus Berchorius (Pierre Bersuire, fl. ca. 1340)
Franciscan friar who quickly left the order to become Benedictine monk. As a Benedictine, he became the compiler of several works to help preachers, such as the Repertorium Morale, the Reductorium Morale, and translationsof the works of Titus Livius. The most famous of his works is the Reductorium Morale, a so-called preaching encyclopedia, containing moralized information about the properties of nature. For much of its content it goes back to De Proprietatibus Rerum of Bartholomaeus Anglicus and subsequent moralizations of this work for preaching purposes. (See also under Marcus de Orvieto) The Reductorium Morale contains 16 chapters: (1) De Deo; (2) De Corpore et Membris Humanis; (3) De Hominis Conditionibus; (4) De Infirmitatibus; (5) De Celo et Terra; (6) De Materia et Forma, Igne et Aere et Eorum Impressionibus; (7) De Avibus; (8) De Aquis et Fluminibus; (9) De Piscibus; (10) De Animalibus, Vermibus et Serpentibus; (11) De Terra et Eius Partibus Necnon de Gemmis et Lapidibus Preciosibus; (12) De Herbis, Plantis et Arboribus; (13) De Nature Accidentibus; (14) De Mirabilibus Nature; (15) De Fabulis Poetarum; (16) Super Totam Bibliam.

Franciscan lector at Aversa. Was elected bishop of Carinola and confirmed in this office by Pope John XXII on 13 january 1326. Yet Pietro’s order superiors were unwilling to accept this election (did this mean that he could not take up the position?). Four years later, when the Valva-Sulmona episcopate became vacant, the order apparently did not hinder Pietro’s election by that diocesan chapter. Pietro was confirmed in his new see on 4 May 1330. The next year, Pietro published new diocesan statutes of the Valva Sulmona diocese.

Petrus Brosius
(Pierre de La Brosse, fl.
French friar about whom nothing more is known than that he wrote a small treatise Des règles de la perfection, dedicated to all those who wanted to engage in a veritable devotion ‘à nostre très doulx Sauveur Jhesu Crist crucifié.’ The author provides ‘35 règles de dévocion pour qui veut monter en la très haute montagne de perfection et de sainte contemplation’. Work seems especially geared to female religious who go to mass daily and should cultivate an evocative and tender devotional attitude towards the suffering Christ.

Petrus de Alcántara (Juan de Sanabria, 1499, Alcantára - 1562, Arenas) beatus (1622), sanctus (1669)
OFM/OFMRef. Studied grammar in his home town, and thereafter the liberal arts, philosophy and canon law at Salamanca. In 1515, he entered the order in the Santo Evangelio custody, which officially was transferred to the Observants in 1517, and in 1519 received provincial status. Juan fulfilled his noviciate in the convent San Francisco de Los Majaretes, and changed his name in Pedro. Further religious studies at Los Majaretes and at Belvis de Monroy. Became guardian of Robledillo de Gata in 1519 and priester in 1524. From 1525 onwards he again several times fulfilled the function of guardian in various convents (a.o. Badajoz, La Lapa, Plasencia). Between 1532 and 1538 he lived the life of a hermit in La Papa. In 1535, 1544, and 1551, he was provincial definitor. In 1538 he was elected provincial minister of the province of St. Gabriel. As provincial minister (1538-1541) he reformed the provincial constitutions with the support of the chapter of Placensia. After getting acquainted with Francisco de Borja, a period of solitary contemplation (1542), travels to Portugal and additional administrative and educational charges (a.o. gardien and novice master at Palhães), he embarked on a program of reform, in close allignment Juan Pacual. Petrus established several new convents, such as the Pedroso de Acim convent, which became the center of the subsequent Alcantarine reform congregation (under Conventual control). In 1557 he became general commisioner of these reformed convents in Spain. His congregation received official papal approval in 1562 (Pius IV). Pedro died on 18 October 1562. He was beatified on 5 March 1622 and officially canonised on 28 April 1669. Pedro is foremost known as a great organizer, as a contemplative ascetic with a clear-cut ascetical program, and as spiritual counsellor of king Juan III of Portugal and Theresa of Avilla. Wrote several influential ascetical and meditative handbooks, which emphasise prayer.
manuscripts and editions
Tratado de la oración y meditación (Madrid, 1916/1933/1956/1977) [also more than 200 older editions! The work shows many resemblances with the contemporary treatise on meditation written by Louis of Granada, but uses a wide range of other sources (aside from Scripture, Augustine, and Bernard, especially John of Caulibus, Pseudo-Tauler, Alonso de Madrid, Francisco de Osuna, Antonio de Guevara, and the Instrucción para novicios of Martin de Santa María Benavides) . Pedro probably had finished the first version of the work by 1537. The first printed edition dates from 1548. The work tries to serve as a meditational guide for lay people.

Petrus de
Alfaro (Pedro de Alfaro, fl. c.
OFMDisc. Spanish friar from the Santiago province. Missionary and provincial minister in the Philippines. Left for China on 20 May 1579 and entered Canton on 19 June of the same year, together with three additional priests and two Franciscan tertiaries. Due to opposition from Portuguese merchants at Macao, Pedro and his Franciscan party of missionaries was exiled on the accusation of espionage. Pedro returned to Manilla but went onwards to Macao the same year, where he established a friary and a church, which he dedicated to Notre Dame of the Angels. From Macao, he tried again to engage in missionary activities on the Chinese mainland. He was apparently rather succesful, but that attracted again opposition from the Portuguese, as a result of which, Pedro had to leave Macao in 1580. He went towards Goa, but his ship sank and Pedro perished.

Petrus de
Baldeswell (fl. c.
English friar. Studied at Oxford and became there regent master of theology ca. 1301 (30th lector of theology at the Franciscan studium, succeeding Philip of Bridlington). Baldeswell’s Sentences commentary has not survived, yet some positions from his commentary on Books I and II of the Sentences are sometimes cited in the Sentences Commentary of William of Ware (MS Florence Laurentiana Plut. 33 dext. 1 ff. 14v, 23v, 54v, 57r, 59r, 60r, 61r, 61v, 67r, 76r, 76v, 94v. On f. 94v is also found a short text ascribed to Peter of Baldeswell on the way in which the sacraments provide the soul with a precondition to receive grace. Marginal notes alongside the text of William’s Sentences commentary (f. 14v, & 59r) allude to another quaternus of Peter, in which he would have refuted (in a Thomist fashion) some positions of William of Ware). Peter of Baldeswell is also cited in a commentary on all books of the Sentences found in MS Cambridge, Gonville and Caius College MS 300 (attributed to William of Nottingham by E. Longpré). The citation shows that Peter, influenced by Richard of Mediavilla, rejected the formal distinction.

Petrus de Cheriaco
(first half
Bacc. Bibliae in Paris in September 1428. The Theology Faculty obliged him to retract certain theological statements, the nature of which is unclear [CHUP IV 478 no. 2314; 479 no. 2316]. He was excommunicated by his provincial in 1446, but later he received absolution by papal bull [BF n.s. II no. 1221]. Peter supported the part of Charles VII and apparently was chaplain and confessor of the Lord of Gaucourt. The latter commended Peter to Nicholas V as a most loyal subject of the French King.

Petrus de Falco (late thirteenth century)
His Franciscan identity is not fully secured. Some (including Glorieux) posit him as a regent master in Paris between ca. 1279/1281 or 1280/82. But that seems erroneous, just as previous identifications of Peter with William of Falegar Peter of Falco’s own regency (if at all within the Franciscan order), probably should be positioned after the regency of Richard of Mediavilla (which took place between 1284-1287). Whatever Petrus de Falco’s allegiance. He uses a Bonaventurian vocabulary yet also seems at times to echo elements from henry of Ghent. Peter’s Sentences commentary did not survive in full. Several excerpts, among which those made by Petrus Reginaldetus (MS Vat. Lat. 9343), have survived, as well as several of his Quodlibeta and Quaestiones Disputatae.

Petrus de Ghent ((Petrus van der Muren/Petrus de Mura/Pedro de Gante, ca. 1480 - 1572 Mexico)
OFMOBS. Born in Ghent. Joined there the Franciscans before 1522. Departed in that year to Spain with Juan de Tecto, Juan de Aora and Jan Glapion to Spain with the fleet of Charles V (with whom he apparently had cordial relations), and from hence to the New World in 1523. Had a long missionary career on the Antilles and other areas in the Caribbean. Opened also a school in Texcoco, where he taught children to read and write and to learn the basic tenets of Christian faith [as always, close symbiosisbetween alphabetization and catechism). Was well-known for his proficiency in the local languages.

Apparently a French friar. Received his licence of theology on 15 December 1449 and incepted as doctor of theology on 20 April, 1450 [Paris BN Lat. 5657-A f. 21r; CHUP IV, 689]. In mat 1451, Petrus is ‘custos Campaniae’ and attended the provincial chapter of the French province held at Rouen. Also known to have preached at Abbeville in 1454 and at Amiens in 1468. Wrote Le Jardin des Nobles (written between 1461 and 1464) for the nobleman Yves du Fou (‘grand veneur de France’ and an influential courtier at the court of King Louis XI). Through Yves du Fou, Petrus received a royal grant by Louis IX of fifty ‘livres’ (pounds) for his necessities. In Le Jardin des Nobles, which by John Murphy is represented as a forerunner of Erasmus’ Enchiridon Militis Christiani, Petrus de Grossis developed the metaphor of a garden to discuss Christian morality, virtues, and eschatology. He stands, in fact, in a long tradition, going back to the twelfth century (Cf. the Hortus Deliciarum of Herrade de Landsberg). Starting of with a reference to the Song of Songs 4, 12 (You are an enclosed garden…), Petrus deals with the soul as a garden, the aspect of the cloistered garden of the soul and the growth and cultivation of the plants within this garden.

Petrus de Mogliano (Pietro Corradini de Mogliano, 1435-1490) beatus
OFMObs. Italian friar from Mogliano (Macerata). Studied law at the university of Peruga and wanted to embark on a legal career, when, in 1467, he was confronted by the Observant Franciscan friar Domenico de Leonessa (d. 1497). On the advice of the latter, Pietro took the habit at the Carceri convent (near Assisi). After he was ordained priest, Pietro embarked on a preaching career. At first he accompagnied Jacopo della Marchia, for whom he also transcribed manuscripts. For the next twenty years, Pietro was active as preacher in central Italy; combining preaching with strong social involvement, as can be seen in his pastoral work in Fermo and Amendola. He also was moral counsellor for the family of the prince of Camerino (Giulio Caesario de Varano), and especially for the prince’s daughter Camilla, who became a Poor Clare (under the name Battista Varani; see also this catalogue under her name), and dedicated her own Dolori Mentali di Gesù nella sua Passione (1488) to her franciscan counsellor (after Pietro’s death, she wrote in 1491 the eulogy Del felice transito del beato Pietro da Mogliano). In addition to Pietro’s pastoral work, he took administrative charges in the order: in 1472, the Observant general chapter of l’Aquila made him commissioner of the Island of Candia; three times (between 1477-1480, 1483-1486, and in 1489/90) he was provincial vicar/minister of the March of Ancona province. During his last appointment as provincial vicar, he died on 25 July 1490 in the Camerino convent. After some travels, his corporal remainss were buried in the Camerino cathedral . On 10 August 1760 he was officially beatified. >>writings??

Petrus de
Padua (fl.
Italian friar. Not to be confused with Pietrobono Brosemini de Padua (Petrus Bonus Bruzeminus), who was guardian of the Trent convent as well as inquisitor in Padua in the closing years of the thirteenth century [cf. Collectanea Franciscana 30 (1960), 412-413; Clément Schmitt, DSpir XII, 1631]. Sbaralea ascribed to Pietro de Padua an Expositio super Problemata Aristotelis, as well as a collection of 150 Sermones de Tempore that has survived in many manuscripts all over Europe. The attribution of the sermons has been questioned by G. Abate and G. Luisetto, as the liturgical order of the sermon collection does not seem to cohere wit the Franciscan-Roman liturgical calendar. Paul Marangon, on the other hand, is not totally convinced by this argument. Sbaralea’s ascription of Expositio super Problemata Aristotelis suggests that Pietro was active as teacher in a Franciscan custodial school of philosophy.

Petrus de S. Benedicto (late thirteenth century)
Franciscan friar and preacher. Active at Paris c. 1250-1275. He apparently knew the city and its university rather well. Also sometimes mentions Orléans in his work. Not much is known about his life and career, yet to him are ascribed several important sermon collections De Tempore, De Sanctis, and De Communi Sanctorum. It might be that Peter is not the actual author of all these sermons, as they sometimes resemble very much sermons ascribed to Nicholas Byard, Guillaume de Mailly and others. Most of Peter’s sermons seem to have been written for his fellow homiletic practitioners, and are highly structured scholastic sermons with divisions, sub-divisions, recourse to biblical and theological authorities, and many concise exempla. Some of them have a strong spiritual import, such as the christological sermons edited under the name of Bonaventure, and an interesting sermon on prayer (cf. for instance Munich Clm 2672 f. 50v-51v; Cf. the analysis of David d’Avray, ‘Pierre de Saint-Benoît’, DSpir XII, 1667-1669).

Petrus de Trabibus (Piero/Pietro delle Travi?, d. Late thirteenth century)
Probably originating from central Italy (strongest case thus far made for the neighbourhood of Trabis Bonantis, in the custody of Cametino). Probably educated at studia in Southern France and in the studium Generale of Florence. Whetaver may be the case, his writings show a strong influence of the theological positions of Olivi, who was lector at Santa Croce between 1287 and 1289. Peter de Trabibus might have been Olivi’s assistent lector or bachelor. [Note: in a non degree studium generale like Santa Croce, the principal lector of the theology school read the Sentences to lectorate students, whereas his assistent (lector secundarius/bachelor/biblicus), provided these students with (cursory?) readings on the Bible] Peter de Trabibus himself probably was principal lector at the St. Croce studium generale of Florence between 1294 and 1296, where he gave, in two subsequent years, a full course on the Sentences (according to a by then rather common order: book I and IV in the scholarly year of 1294-1295, and book I and III in the scholarly year of 1295-1296), as well as a series of quodlibetal questions (one series in Spring 1295, and one series in the Spring of the following year). Peter was not the first and only Franciscan lector without a licence of theology to hold public quodlibetal questions in a non-degree studium generale. Other examples are the quodlibets held in the 1290s by Olivi (who never became a master of theology) and Vital du Four (who received the magisterium by papal decree after 1305). Sylvain Piron (2000 & 2006) has suggested that Peter de Trabibus’s theology teachings at the studium generale of Florence had a strong public character, and goes as far as to suggest that one of the quodlibets actually might indicate the presence of the young poet Dante Alighieri.
Some of Peter’s theses were condemned at the council of Vienne in 1312.

Petrus de Trano (Pietro da Trani, fl. later fifteenth century)
Italian friar and theologian. Studied theology at Ferrara and received te magisterium there in 1466. Before he finished his degree studies, he produced a Tratado de la confession, on request of duke Borso of Modena (who also was marquise of Ferrara). Apparently, Pietro and the duke were well-acquainted and shared a love for book-acquisition (see the study of Piana mentioned below). Later in life, Pietro was appointed bishop. During that period, he composed a treatise De Ingenuis Puerorum et Adolescentium Moribus, which eventually was published in 1496.

XII.G.6 ff. 176a-180d [see Cenci, Napoli]; Copenhagen Royal Library 1599 ff. 1r-21r [The first Naples manuscript is also described (with partial transcription of its prologue), in A. Miola, ‘Le scritture in volgare dei primi tre secoli della lingua ricercate nei codici della Biblioteca Nazionale di Napoli’, Il Propugnatore 2,ii (1878), 298. In the Copenhagen manuscript, the prologue runs as follows: ‘Comença el tratado de la confession, composta per frate Piero da Trane de l’ordine de li frati Menori a requisitione de lo illustrissimo et devotissimo duca de Modena, marchese de Ferrara. El qual trattato se divide in cinque parte. La prima contiene che cosa è confessione. La secunda como diè esser la confessione. La terza quando è tempo necessario ala confessione. La quarta como el peccatore diè andare ala confessione. La quinta dela penitencia de la confessione. Bisogna prima sapere de la proprietà de la contricione, se volemo intendere che cossa sia confessione.’ The work apparently was directed to aristocratic lay people. One copy of the treatise once was kept in the library of Duke Ercole I. Cf. G. Bertoni, La biblioteca Estense e la cultura Ferrarese ai tempi del duca Ercole I (1471-1505) (Turin, 1903), 237, n. 58.

[This treatise, written in the same hand and in the same style as the Tratado de la Confession, might well be another work of Pietro. Inc: ‘naturalmente la creatura rationale desidera de sapere et per instinto proprio de natura lo apetito humano è costretto a intendere, come el filosofo.… Expl: E perché niuna cosa è più necessaria quanto è saper la saluta nostra, imperò desidera naturalmente di sapere se colui el quale tutto el tempo de la sua vita o mazor parte è stato in peccato mortale, receve penitencia salutifera de perdonanza in lo ponto de la morte sua, cioè se costui se salva o danna.’]

Petrus Galatinus (Pietro Colonna Galatino/Monggius/Mongio/Colombo, c. 1460/1465, Galatina (Apulia) - 1540, Rome)
OMObs. Probably born in or around Galatina in Puglia (Southern Italy). Entered the order at an early age in his home province of St. Nicholas of bari in the Observant convent of St. Catherina at Galatina. He was living in the Franciscan convent of Otranto when the Turcs sacked the town (1480). Studied in Rome (c. 1511-1515). Specialized in oriental languages and kabbalism and took on the defense of Reuchlin, just like his fellow Franciscan friar Benigno (who wrote his own Defensio of Reuchlin (Cologne, 1517)). Galatinus not only heavily influenced by kabbalistic works, but also by the Apocalypsis Nova (Amadeus da Silva). Galatinus was made provincial of the Bari province (1518), and was part of the clientele of the cardinals Lorenzo Pucci and Francisco de Quiñones. Spent the last years of his life in the Aracoeli convent in Rome. several of his apocalyptic and kabbalistic works are now in the BAV.
manuscripts
Comm. in Apocalypsim (1524): Killiney, `Bibl. Francisc.' B. 25 (502 pp. Saec. xvii-xviii); BAV Lat. 5567; BAV Lat. 6046. This commentary stands in the line of Nicholas of Lyra’s prophetical historicism regarding the explanation of the main visions of the Book of Revelations, again actualised to fit recent events in European history. Hence the fifth seal ‘predicts’ the onslaught of the Turcs in the fifteenth and early sixteenth century
De Sacra Scriptura Recta Interpretanda: Rome, BAV>> See the article of Kleinhans. The work is dedicated to King Henry VIII of England and was completed in 1526. It starts out, like many exegetical handbooks before, with a long explanation of the vision of Ezekiel, and then continues with making Christ the interpretative ‘key’ to the Scriptures. Christ opens the meaning of Scripture in the course of time: hence the real meaning of the Bible becomes clear in the course of salvation history (reminiscent of Rupert of Deutz , Joachim and others?). The mystery of Christ’s passion and his workings in salvation history require both a literal and a spiritual exegesis. The latter is divided by the author in anagogical, typological, tropological (three kinds) and allegorical (three kinds) senses. On top of that, the author discerns seven ‘intellectus spirituales’. In short, there seems to be a distinct Joachite inspiration here, at least as far as the methodology is concerned. It also seems that the author was well-acquainted with the exegetical set-up of Bonaventure (notably his Collationes in Hexaëmeron).

Oratio de Circumcisione Domini (Rome, 1515)
Opus toti Christianae Reipublicae maxime utile de Arcanis Catholicae Veritatis (…) ex Talmud, aliisque Hebraicis Libris nuper Excerptum/Opus de Arcanis Catholicae Veritatis, hoc est, In omnia difficilia V.T., ex Talmud aliisque Hebraicis libris, quum ante natum Christum, tum post scriptis, contra obstinatam Judeorum perfidiam, absolutissimus Commentarius (Ortona: G. Soncino, 1518/Basel, 1550 etc.). Also a defense of the exegetical ideas of cabbalism and an ‘exegetical’ work in which the author suggests ways to convince the Jews that Jesus is the Messias. He seeks to establish a purified biblical texts, based on the veritas hebraica, and states that the Jews should accept the message of Jesus as their own Old Testament is, in our Franciscan’s opinion, a testimony to his impending arival. To a considerable degree, the author introduces material dfrom the Talmud, which in his eyes help to seek out the spiritual and mystical meaning of the Mosaic law, and therefore support the refutation of modern Jewish ‘litteralism’.

Petrus Johannis Olivi (Pierre de Jean Olieu/Pietro di Giovanni Olivi, ca. 1248-1298)
Friar from the Languedoc area. Born in Sérignan (near Béziers) c. 1248. Entered the order at Béziers, at the age of 12. Around 1268, the provincial minister Jaucelin (friend of Hugh of Digne, and future bishop of Orange), sent him to Paris for his lectorate studies. he stayed for four or five years at the studium generale of the Grand Couvent de Paris (where he also witnessed Bonaventure’s Collationes). His prolonged stay at Paris was probably justified by his additional role as an arts teacher for younger Franciscan friars. He might have lectured in that context on Aristotle’s Physics. Olivi Probably returned to Southern France with his lectorate testimonials in or around 1274. In Southern France, he became active as a lector in a series of important provincial studia (for instance in Narbonne and Montpellier, where he was active as lector biblicus between 1279-1282, during which period, Olivi produced an impressive series of biblical commentaries as well as disputed questions). For some time, several of his writings (esp. those in which he formulated his concept of usus pauper and writings containing some of his more daring epistemological and eschatological opinions) drew the attention of his superiors, probably at the instigation of the university bachelor Arnaud Gaillard, who had an axe to grind with Olivi, and denounced him. This lead to Olivi's temporary suspension as a teacher, his transferral to the friary of Nîmes, and a confiscation of his books/writings (c. 1282-85). See for details D. Burr, The Persecution of Peter John Olivi; Piron, ‘In Epistola ad Fratrem R..’ (1998) and the latter’s forthcoming article on the censures and condemnations of Petrus Iohannis Olivi). Under the minister general Matthew of Aquasparta, he was able to resume his teaching tasks at the studium generale of the Santa Croce in Florence (held Sentences lectures there between 1287-1289). Subsequently, he was appointed at the studium generale of Montpellier, with the support of minister general Raymond Geoffroy (Gaufredi). Following an exoneration at the general chapter of Paris (1292), Olivi returned to Narbonne, where he made the final redaction of his works. From that period date the final version of his Lectura super Apocalypsim, his famous letter to the children of Charles of Anjou, and his letter to Conrad of Offida. He died at Narbonne on 14 March, 1298. During his life he was revered for his ascetical and pious lifestyle. After his burial before the altar of the Franciscan convent church of Narbonne, his tomb became a pilgrim site, and his death was commemorated yearly, until the final condemnation of his Lectura super Apocalypsim by John XXII in 1326. At the order of the papacy and the Franciscan order leadership Olivi's tomb was destroyed and his body removed. This condemnation was a culmination of a general clamp-down by the order and the papacy on French and Italian spiritual factions within, and beguine factions alligned with the Franciscan order. For these spiritual and beguine groups, Olivi’s views on usus pauper, as well as his eschatological opinions had become a source of inspiration. Some of Olivi’s writings had already been condemned and destroyed a few years after his death under the minister generals John of Murrovalle (1296-1304) and Gonsalvus of Spain (1304-1313), and in the wake of condemnations at the general chapter of Marseille (1319), seven years before the final papal condemnation in 1326. Olivi’s spiritual, exegetical, and disciplinary works, as well as his memory continued to be cherished by (threatened) spiritual factions (cf. also Angelo Clareno and Ubertino of Casale), and received renewed attention by Observant spokesmen (a.o. Bernardino da Siena). His more academic philosophical and theological ideas proved to be formative in the transition of Franciscan scholastic thought between the 1270s and 1300 (see for instance the study of Davenport mentioned below).

The considerations start with a meditation on God and the passion of Christ, and from there spread out over related meditative issues, and the ways in which to deal with the dangers of the world. Interestingly, Olivi warns against the seacrh for visions and revelations. In prayer and contemplation, people should exhibit humility, and use the available instruments, such as confession, prayer, communion, fasting, and charity]

An Italian translation can be found in Pietro di Giovanni Olivi, Scritti scelti, trans. Paolo Vian, Fonti cristiane per il terzo millennio 3 (Rome, 1989), 160-166. This was reprinted in Mistici Francescani Secolo XIV, II (Assisi-Bologna, 1997), 559-587. There are medieval provencal versions of the Remedia and of Olivi’s other works of spiritual direction. One provencal version of the Remedia has been edited in C. de Lollos, ‘Trattato provenzale di penitenza’, Studi di filologia romanza 5 (1890), 285-293. The Remedia were rather successful. They were widely used and reworked in the late medieval world (until Vincent Ferrer). Cf. also A.

Petrus
Matthias Katancic (Petar Matija Katancic,
OFM. Croation friar. Born at Valpovo on August 12, 1750. Entered the order at an early age. Ordained priest in 1775. Studied at the university of Buda, to become professor of theology at the religious colleges of Esik (Essek) and Agram (Zagreb). Due to his archaeological and philological interests, he was given a chair of archaeology at Pest, as well as the position of librarian of the City library. In 1800, due to health problems, he was compelled to leave his positions, retreating into the convent life. Before and during these `retirement years’, he published a considerable number of works: works of poetry, numismatic and archaeological works, and text editions. He died at Pest on may 24, 1825.
manuscripts
A number of his works can still be found in manuscript format in the library of Pest. Among these can apparently also be found his large Etymologicon Illyricum.

French friar from the Tours region. Renowned ascetic author. Baccalareus Sententiarum in Paris (1423) [CHUP IV, 419]. Received the licence of theology on 13March 1425 (1426?) and his doctorate on 27 January 1426 (1427?) [MS Paris BN Lat. 5657-A f. 16v; CHUP IV, 447]. After his inception, Petrus became custos of Poitiers and thereafter guardian of Angers. Opposed against the laxity around him, Petrus transferred to the observant convent of Redon. He attended the Council of Basel in 1434, where he defended the observants against accusations by the Franciscan conventuals that the Observance had broken the order’s unity [cf. the work of Schmitt mentioned below]. He is foremost known for his Speculum finalis retributionis tam bonorum operum quam malorum, egregii sacre theologie doctoris fratris Petri Reginaldeti de ordine fratrum minorum. In quo speculo diffuse elucidatur contemplatio penarum et gaudiorum eternalium, which for several decades was almost neglected, until it was published in 1492 by the Dominican friar Guilelmus Totani. The work received no less than eleven printings in the subsequent fifteen years.

Petrus Quesel (Quesvellus/14th century)
English friar, theologian and canonist. Active in the region of Norwich. His only (?) surviving work is the confession manual/summa: Directorium Iuris (also known as the Repertorium Iuris Canonici/Compendium Iuris Canonici/Summa Directoria Iuris in Foro Conscientie et Iudicali), consisting of a prologue, four books or parts, and an epilogue. The prologue reveals the scope of the work and the intentions of the author, and his amends for several categories of readers: `Istud autem opus in quartor libros volui dividere ut qui pauper est non possit se excusare quod non possit ad minus librum illum habere qui ad eius officium noscitur pertinere. Et ideo omitto scribere secundum ordinem Decretalium et secundum ordinem alphabeti ut totam unam materiam valeam pertrattare.' (...) `In primo libro trattatur De summa Trinitate et de Fide Catholica et de septem sacramentis.' (...) `In secundo de hiis qui habent ecclesiastica sacramenta ministrare et de hiis que ad eos et ad recipientes sacramenta et etiam que possunt ad contractus varios pertinere.' (...) `In tercio de criminibus propter que a sacramentis potest impediri et de penis pro criminibus imponendis.' (...) `In quarto de hiis que ad jus et ad judicium pertinent.' (On the basis of Vat Lat 2317 f. 1c. as found in Lioi, Studi Francescani, 59 (1962), 218.) After assuring his readers that he always has followed the teachings of the majority of the doctors, he ends his epilogue: `Ego enim rogatus a pluribus personis opus compilari multa habuerim contraria propter infirmitates et alia ac me distraxerint ardua negotia et diversa. Tamen illius in quem speravi meritis, beate Virginis Marie ac beati Francisci cursum operis consummavi a quo expecto mihi premium reddi. Cui laus est et gloria per omnia secula seculorum. Amen. (Vat Lat 2317 f. 447c, Lioi, p. 219). It is a methodical work, listing for each problem the applicable canonist materials (Decretum, Decretals etc.), followed by a concluding thesis, in which the author makes a case for the best solution. The work follows closely Raymond of Peñaforte and Johan von Freiburg. Due to its practical character, the Summa of Quesel has been widely used, as can be seen in the number of its surviving mss. Almost all these mss have an alphabetical table of content or an index (a tabula generalis) in which the title or rubrics of the individual books are given. Sometimes, there is, alongside of this general table of content also an analytical table, a tabula specialis in alfabetical order (for instance Firenze Laur. Plut. 1 sin 8 f, 245c&254d)

Petrus Regaledo (Pedro Regaledo/Pedro de Valladolid/Pedro de la Costanilla, 1390-1456) Sanctus
Spanish friar from Jewish descent. Born in Valladolid. Baptised and confirmed in the San Salvador parish. Got acquainted with Pedro de Villacreces (d. 1422), who functioned as his spiritual master. In 1404, Pedro de Villacreces took Pedro Regaledo and Lopez de Salinas y Salazar as young oblats with him to the La Aguilera hermitage. In the La Aguilera hermitage, Pedro Regaledo took the habit and made his profession in 1407. He stayed in the hermitage until his ordination as priest in 1415. In 1422, he assisted in the Peñafiel provincial chapter of the conventuals, where Pedro de Villacreces died. Between 1422 and 1442, Pedro Regaledo was guardian of La Aguilera. In 1426, he travelled to Fresneda (Burgos), trying to convince Lopez de Salinas not to leave the Villacrecian reform, and in 1427 Pedro took part in the so-called Concordia of Medina del Campo, where it was decided that the Villacrecians would stay within the conventual fold. Throughout the remainder of his life, Pedro kept active as administrator and as convent superior, putting in practice the reform ideals of Pedro de Villacreces, Lopez de Salinas and Pedro de Santoyo. This gave him a reputation of outstanding sanctity, which eventually lead to his beatification and his sanctification in the early modern period [Cf. especially Mariano Acebal Luján, ‘Pierre Regaledo’, DSpir XII, 1657-1658]. To him are ascribed several works. Several of those, namely the Constituciones, ritos y leyes municipales para las casas del Abrojo y de La Aguilera, the Exposición de la Regla franciscana, the Ejercicios contemplativos y ocupaciones activas, the Compendio de la vida del Pedro Villacreces, and the Opúsculo sobre el Arbol de la vida, probably were written by Pedro de Villacreces and Lopez de Salinas. More secure is Pedro Regaledo’s authorship of several Cartas and the short, fifteen-line prologue to the Memoriale religionis of Pedro de Villacreces. On this, see Archivo Ibero Americano 17 (1957), 663-713.

Petrus Thomae (Pedro Tomás, ca. 1280-Oct. 1340) doctor strenuus/doctor invincibilis/doctor proficuus/doctor serenus
Spanish friar and theologian. Pupil of Duns Scotus. Born c. 1280 in Galicia in Northwest Spain. After studies in Paris, he became lector of philosophy and theology at the Studium of Barcelona (c. 1316/17-1332). After 1332, he entered papal service in Avignon(papal penitentiary). In 1336, he was accused of sorcery and spent the rest of his life in prison in Noves, south of Avignon. He died in prison before 13 October 1340. He is nowadays generally regarded as one of the most important Scotist theologians of his generation. Many of his works still await their first modern edition. [In oudere literatuur wordt hij ook genoemd als de auteur van een aantal bijbelcommentaren, waaronder een Commentaria in Apocalypsim, maar deze werken worden ook aan Pontius Carbonel toegeschreven. Hetzelfde geldt voor de Chronologia ab Adamo usque ad Romanos Imperatores, de Catalogus summorum pontificum a Christo Domino usque ad Benedictum XII en de Tractatus de judicio et Antichristo ad Joannem archiepiscopum Toletanum regis Aragonum filium (al deze vier werken volgens Sbaralea onder de naam van Petrus Hispanus in ms. Barcelona, Bibl. Raymundi Delmasses). Het staat nu wel vast dat het apocalypscommentaar, de Chronologia, de Catalogus en de Tractatus door Pontius Carbonel zijn geschreven. De verwarring komt omdat de teksten bekend stonden als het werk van 'broeder Petrus' uit Aragon, hetgeen voor beide broeders opgeld deed. Aan Petrus Thomas werd ook wel het bekende Compendium theologicae veritatis toegeschreven, dat qua opzet sterk doet denken aan het Breviloquium van Bonaventura. Maar dit compendium is van de Dominicaan Hugo Ripelin van Straatsburg. De herziene uitgave van Sbaralea schrijft hierover dat het '...Compendium theologicae veritatis a Pelbarto de Temesvar Petro Aureoli adscriptum, tribuitur praeterquam S, Bonaventurae et Aegidio Romano, etiam Alberto Magno, S. Thomae Aquinati, Thomae de Sutton Ord. Praed., Petro de Tarantasia et ab ipso Sbaralea Petro Thomae Ord. Min., invenitur in nonnullis codicibus saeculi XIII, hinc Petro Aureoli scriptore est antiquuis, et videtur opus Hugonis Ripelin Argentinensis Ord. Praed.' (Sbaralea, Supplementum, II, 327).]

OFMCap. Florentine friar. Born at 29 April 1649 at Florence, he entered the order at Cortona at 26 May 1668. He became the provincial archivist and secretary, and therafter secretary of the minister general Bernardino d’Arezzo. He died in the Florentine Montughi convent. He was a productive writer on the history of the Capuchins in the Florentine region and elsewhere (based on his extensive knowledge of the Capuchin archives), yet most if not all of his works have remained unedited.

Philippus Brusserius Savonensi (ca. 1260-1340)
Italian friar from Savona. Joined the Franciscan order at Genua. Studied at Paris with Nicholas of Lyra. After his return to the Genuan province, he taught theology in the provincial school network. Active supporter of the Genuese crusade activities of 1301. In this context, he travelled as urban ambassador to Pope Boniface VIII. Between 1301 and 1306 Filippo travelled to the Middle East to further the cause of Christian access to the Holy Land (spending time at the court of the Sultan of Babylon). After his return to Western Europe, Filippo offered several proposals to pope Clement V. In 1322, Filippo is guardian of the Savona convent. He probably died there in October 1340. To Filippo are ascribed a Compendium historiarum Ordinis Minorum et privilegiorum eidem Concessorum, Acta ministrorum generalium, a lost Chronicon franciscanae provinciae Genuensis, and a Descriptio Terrae Sanctae/Liber Peregrinationis.

Philippus
de Berbegal (Filippo de Berbegal, fl. first half
Obervant friar from Saragossa. Joined the order in the Aragon province. Confessor of King Alfonso V of Aragon. In 1426, pope Martin V gave him permission to establish an Observant convent in the Aragon province (bull Sacrae religionis, 1426). In 1430, Filippo wrote against the Constitutiones Martinianae (which had been promulgated at the general chapter of Assisi in 1430 and aimed at reuniting the order, torn apart by Observant and Conventual factions). After publishing his Apologia, Filippo left the Observants (who were inclined to accept the 1430 constitutions), and with a few fellow friars founded a new Observant congregation: the congregatio de la capucciola (named after the pointed shape of their hood. Filippo’s initiative came under heavy attack from the Observan provincial vicar of France, Jean de Brixen, and from the Observant vicar general John Capistran. In 1434, pope Eugenius IV disbanded the congregation, condemning Filippo and several of his fellow friars as promotors of false doctrines.

Philippus
de Majorca (fl. early
Younger son of King James I of Majorca and the brother of Queen Sancia of Naples (the pious wife of Robert the Wise). Philip’s elder brother had joined the Friars Minor, whereas Philip himself initially opted for the Dominicans. As Philip found the Dominican forma vitae unsatisfactory, he eventually chose to become a member of the Franciscan third order. He supported the Franciscan spirituals (esp. Angelo Clareno and his group). During his years as regent of the Majorca Kingdom (1324-1329, for his young nephew James II), Majorca became a safe haven for spirituals and beguins persecuted by the inquisition, pope John XXII and the Franciscan leadership.

Philippus de
Meron (fl. second half
Swedish or Dutch friar? Doctor of theology and active in Sweden in the second half of the fifteenth century. After some apparitions, he became a champion for establishing an additional feast for Saint Joseph (in addition to the commemoration of the saints death on 19 March). Eventually received permission from the Swedish episcopate to organise such a feast, replete with a liturgical ofice, on 14 January. Philippus apparently wrote a Latin treatise on the subject, or rather an eulogy on St. Joseph, fragments of which can be found in several manuscripts. There also survives a Dutch treatise, the eleventh chapter of which seems to be a translation of Philippus’ treatise. The title of the Dutch treatise, which might have been produced by Philippus himself (after a return to The Netherlands?), is Die historie vanden heiligen patriarch Joseph, brudegom der maget maria ende opvoeder ons heren ihesu cristi. This Dutch treatise in turn had a significant influence on later Dutch lives of Saint Joseph (cf. esp. the studies of Albert Ampe).

Philippus de Monte Calerio (Moncagliere/Moncalieri, d. c. 1344)
Italian friar, born at Moncalieri, near Turin. Entered the order in the Genua province. Lector of the Franciscan studium at Padua in 1330, and appointed penitentiary in the St. Peter Basilica of Rome by pope Benedict XII on 1 March 1336. Probably kept that position until his death, around 1344. Probably buried in the Aracoeli convent. As lector at the Padua studium, Philip composed for his students the first part of the Postilla super Evangelia Domenicalia. In the preface to the work, he also anounced a second part Super Evangelia que Leguntur in XLa, which, if we can believe the manuscript information, was finished on the 24th Sunday after Pentecost (also in 1330?). Philip also promised to compose a volume of Sermones et Collationes Morales, yet these do not seem to have survived. His Postilla super Evangelia Domenicalia and his Postilla super Evangelia que Leguntur in XLa had considerable success, witness the large number of manuscripts from the 14th and 15th century (Italian, French, German, Spanish, and Middle-European manuscripts). Not surprizingly, Mariano da Firenze calls him a ‘vir devotus et magnus praedicator’ (cf. Compendium, AFH 3 (1910), 309). The work also was printed under the title Postilla Abbreviata. Parts of the collections were published separately as well. The sermons of Philippus were especially sought after by Observant homiletic practitioners, not in the least because the sermons provide complete commentaries on the Gospel readings for the sundays in question, and have a strong pastoral intent. For the ‘proto-humanist’ tendencies in his sermons, see the remarks of Smalley.

Philippus Gesualdi (Filipo Gesualdi, 23-02, 1550 - 12-12, 1618)
OFMConv. Italian friar from Castrovillari (Cosenza province). Theologian, minister general, and bishop. Received grammatical instruction as a young boy by the Conventuals of Castrovillari (esp. by friar Vittorio Cappelli) and became a novice there at the age of 16. After his profession, he was sent to various important study houses of the order (Rome, Padua, and Treviso), to complete his philosophical and theological education. Ordained priest in 1573 and bestowed with the title of magister artium et theologiae at the general chapter of Perugia (12 May, 1580). Embarked on a career as educator and pastoral theologian. Was secretary at the general chapter of 1581, and became regent master at the study house of Padua (where Francesco de Salo was one of his students and where he also founded confraternities), and after a period as general commissioner and visitator of the Sicily province (appointed by Pope Sixtus V), in the early 1580s, he taught at Naples (1588, where he completed his Lectura Sacrae Theologiae super Primum Sententiarum). Was appointed provincial minister of the Calabrian province. Around the same time, he was asked by the cardinal protector of the order (Cardinal Cusano), to reform the Assisi convent). In between these various appointments, he returned to Padua, where (sometime between 1590 and 1592), he composed his Ordinaria Lectura super Librum tertium iuxta Mentem Scoti, in which he defended the immaculate conception. Still at Padua, in 1592, he published his most well-known work, the Plutosofia, con la quale si spiega l’arte della memoria, as well as several devotional works. During his stay in Padua, he continued to be active in founding confraternities and writing rules and statutes for them. In the same year 1592, Pope Clement VIII appointed him assistent general to the minister general Francesco Bonfigli. The year thereafter (1593), he was elected minister general of the OFMConv, a position that he kept until 1602. As minister general, Filippo activily endorsed the Tridentine reforms, and brough the conventual branch back to a more strict observance of the original Franciscan ideals. He personally visited several order provinces and repeatedly published reform decrees. During his third term as general minister, Clement VIII made him bishop of Cariati and Cerenzia (15 August, 1601). During the subsequent general chapter, he resigned from office, and took up the episcopal charge in his Calabrian episcopate. As bishop, Filippo became very involved with issues of pastoral care, as well as with social-economic issues, to lighten the poverty and living conditions of the poor. Made much work of categetical instruction and the training of the secular clrgy. he founded several confraternities and helped founding a hospital for the sick and for poor pilgrims. He died on 12 December 1618 in the odour of sanctity (he appears in several Franciscan Martyrologies) and was buried in the Cathedral of his episcopate. His corps was transferred to the sacristy in the 18th century, during restauration activities. Thereafter, the whereabouts of his tombe are unknown. Filippo was a prolific author, not only in the fields of doctrinal and pastoral theology, but also on devotional issues and philosophical matters.

Philippus Hersfeldiae Minorita (c. 1480/1500 - 29 July, 1554)
OFMObs. German friar. Active in Hersfeld (before the destruction of that convent in 1525), Grünberg (c. 1528), Trier, Limburg (where he was active as vicar in neighbouring churches), and Kreuznach (where he died, on 29 July, 1554). Produced a scholarly compilation with works of Cusanus and other materials, now present in New York, Rare Book Library of the Hispanic Society of America, Hiersemann Catalogue 327/108. A part of the manuscript was probably produced in the Franciscan convent of Hersfeld (Custody of Hessen in the Cologne conventual province). Another part originates from Trier, where Philip apparently wrote the Sententia Sententiarum (which stands in the Hortus/Flores Sententiarum tradition) and the Cusanus excerpts. The miscellaneous compilation of Philip not only reflects his own scholarly and homiletic interests, but probably also sheds slight on current religious discussions between protestants and catholics (cf. Marburger ‘Religionsgespräch’).

Pontius Carbonellus (Poncio Carbonell, ca. 1260-1350)
Friar from Barcelona. Joined the order in the Aragon province. Guardian of the Barcelona convent in 1313. Confessor of the Archbishop of Toledo (Infante Juan d’Aragon). Diplomat and theological counsellor for king Jacob II of Aragon (a.o. mission to Naples). Provincial minister of Aragon (1336-1350). In this latter function he was involved with the redaction of the 1337 general constitutions (the so-called constitutions of Cahors). He died at Barcelona on 3 December 1350. Known for his wide-ranging commentaries on all biblical books, as well as a related Series patriarcharum, regum Israel et Juda, imperatorum Romanorum, summorum pontificum, a Tractatus de mundi aetatibus et tentationibus et de antichristo (see also Petrus Thomae), and a Catena Aurea (c.f. T. Kaeppeli, `Mitteilungen über Thomashandschriften der Bibl. Naz. Di Neapel', Angelicum, 10 (1933), 115). Until the Spanish civil war (1936), many of his manuscripts were present in the provincial library of Toledo (mss. Toledo, Provincial. 444-451). Several of his works are still present in the Biblioteca de Catalunya of Barcelona (a.o. his Apocalypse commentary, in Barcelona, Biblioteca de Catalunya 545 (Dalmases 30)). Poncio started in 1318 with a commentary on Job for his former pupil, the Archbishop of Toledo, following the Moralia in Job of Gregory the Great. Between 1319 and 1329, he commented upon the Psalms, the Apocalypse, the Song of Songs and Daniel. Between 1329 and 1334, he wrote a Catena on the Gospels and wrote another commentary on Job, now following Nicholas of Lyra’s Postilla Litteralis. Thereafter, many more commentaries on other biblical books followed. Central in his commentaries was the expositio, a chain-like compilation of the sayings of major exegetes (esp. church fathers) on the passage in question. Hence, Poncio is more a compilor than an independent commentator. Many of his comments resemble the Catena Aurea of Thomas Aquinas, which seems to have been one of his major sources. Yet Poncio also used the commentarues of Peter Aureol and Nicholas of Lyra to flesh out his comments. In general, he followed Aureol’s division of biblical books. Nicholas of Lyra’s influence is strongest in Poncio’s second commentary on Job and in his commentary on Ezechiel.
