Raymund Lull (ofs?, d. 1316 )

Majorcan poet-philosopher and missionary. After a religious conversion, he left his wife and children and engaged in a life of pilgrimage, mission and writing. Wrote a host of works in various languages on theology, mission and crusading issues, established a school for (Franciscan) missionaries to the Saracens at Majorca (Miramar, which functioned until 1292), and probably was killed by Moslims during his third attempt at bringing the Christian faith to the inhabitants of Northern Africa.

Raymundus Rigaldi (Raymond Rigauld)

Lector at the Toulouse Studium. Master of theology in 1287/8? Teaching at Paris ca. 1288-1292.. Provincial of Aquitania in first in 1279 and again in 1295. He would have died soon after his second election. Cf. Dedieu, ‘Les ministres’, 164-166.

manuscripts

The quodlibetal questions ascribed to a friar Raymundus in MS Todi, Biblioteca comunale 98 and assigned to Raymond Rigauld by Ferdinand Delorme might well be the work of Jacques de Quesnoy/ Jacobus de Carceto (regent in Paris ca. 1290-1292). But the issue has not yet been resolved. Sylvain Piron leaves both options open.

Reginaldus de Maresco (Réginaud Marescot/Marescau, d. 1499)

French friar. Entered the order at the Troyes convent. Studied theology and received the licence of theology on 19 December 1465. Incepted on 26 March 1466 [MS Paris BN Lat 5657-A f. 23v. Cf. Sérent, ‘Les Frères Mineurs’, 309]. After his degree work, Reginaldus served as provincial minister of the French province for fifteen years (ca. 1482-1497). During his provincialate, he coped with conflicts between the conventuals and the observants (a.o. at the provincial chapter at Bruges, 1484, where Reginaldus countered a quaestio ‘utrum Christus et Apostoli fuerint perfecti pauperes evangelici’ with the quastio ‘Utrum Christus sit caput Ecclesiae Sanctae Dei tam militantis quam triumphantis. Cf. Schmitt, ‘La pauvrété évangélique’, 333-346). Reginaldus was one of the founders of the Passion chapel at the Troyes convent. He inaugurated this chape; in 1487. After his death on 16 March 1499, he was buried in the same chapel.

Richardus Angelus Mason de Sancto Francisco (Richard Mason/Richard Angelus Mason, 1599 - December 30, 1678)

Of English (or possibly Irish descent). In any case born in Wiltshire, England. Moved to the Continent and took his profession in the Franciscan order in 1629. Was ordained priest at Douai four years later. He took his degrees in the order’s English shools in exile in Douai (doctor of Divinity), and was appointed successively to the administrative offices of definitor, guardian, and visitor of the province of Brabant. He was elected provincial in 1659, and became the confessor of the female Franciscan tertiaries of Nieuport, who suffered from damp living conditions, and eventually resettled. Between 1662 and 1675, he lived in England, functioning as the domestic chaplain to Lord Arundell of Wardour. He returned to the continent to retire at the convent of Douai. Productive author.

Richardus de Connington (d. 1330)

Franciscan friar. Presented to the bishop of Lincoln in 1300 to obtain permission to hear confession. Graduated at the U. of Oxford, where he became regent master between 1305-7. Thereafter magister regens in Cambridge. Provincial minister of the English province between 1310 and 1316. As provincial minister, he took part in the council of Vienne and active participant in the poverty controversy. His treatise on poverty follows the explications of Exiit qui Seminat. After John XXII's bull Ad Conditorem Canonum (1322) Richard composed a dialogue, the Responsiones ad Rationes Papales, stressing the difficulties which could rise from the papal position. Richard eventually retired to the Cambridge convent, and died there c. 1330. Aside from his poverty treatises, Richard is known as the author of 7 disputed questions and 2 quodlibets. His commentary on the Sentences and his Sermones Quadragesimales have not been found, though his Sentences commentary is quoted by John of Reading and Robert Graystanes (see Stegmüller, Sent., 717). In his theological teachings, Conington was very much inspired by Henry of Ghent, frequently in opposition to Scotus, even though Conington also defends the formal distinction.

Hiervan is een bewerkte en sterk ingekorte copie overgeleverd als appendix van de kroniek van de augustijner kanunnik Roger of Howden (ms. British Museum, Cotton Claudius D VII).

Richardus de Mediavilla (Richard of Middletown/Richard of Menneville, doctor solidus/1249-1307)

English friar of noble Norman origin. Studied in Paris under William de la Mare and Matthew of Aquasparta. Held his lectures on the Sentences 1280/81. As Bacc. member of the committee that judged the works of Olivi (1283). Between1284/7 he acted as Magister Regens in Paris. During this ‘long’ regency (mendicant masters normally passed on the chair to their successor more quickly), probably caused by the premature death of several formed bachelors, Richard disputed de quolobet once a year. He also was heavily involved with debates with Henry of Ghent, Godfrey of Fontaines and Giles of Rome. After the conclusion of his regency, Richard was for a while lector at the Naples studium generale (where he also was the ‘magister et socius’ of the young Louis of Anjou. Cf. the latter’s Processus canonizationis p. 14) Provincial minister of Francia in 1295 and after. His theological works advocate central Franciscan elements, such as the doctrine of the plurality of forms, yet he abandoned the Bonaventurian notion of special divine illumination to certify the human understanding of universal concepts. Both Richard’s Sentences commentary and his Quodlibeta enjoyed a wide circulation during the late medieval period. His quodlibeta alone have been preserved in thirty manuscripts from all over Europe, and eventually were printed in 1509 by Lazaro Soardi in Venice.

Richardus Ledrede (1275-1361?)

Franciscan friar from Surrey, who made a career in the Irish province. Spent some time in the London convent, before he, in all probability, embarked on (non-degree) studies at the Franciscan studium generale in Avignon, where he came under the attention of John XXII. Eventually he was ordained bishop of Ossory in Ireland (1317), where he proved himself a loyal servant of the English King Edward II. One of his first acts was to hold a synod to overcome the resentment of Irish and Anglo-Irish alike. The ordinances published afterwards prohibit concubinage, they condemn the farming out of benefices to laymen, the violation of sanctuary, and the celebration of clandestine marriages. During his long episcopate, he run into a range of conflicts, predominantly with Anglo-Irish settlers. Besides, he became entangled with the succession struggles surrounding the English crown, which cost him the favour of the new King Edward III. This forced Richrd to spent a range of years on the continent and in England, away from his Irish diocese (between 1329 and 1349). Aside from his troubles with the Anglo-Irish, and his conflict with Edward III, Richard Ledrede is predominantly known for his zeal in persecuting alleged heretics. In this, he probably was following directives of the Avignon papacy. He probably also was more than keen to persecute as heretics some opponents of his episcopal politics. Most infamous is his role (during the early years of his episcopate) in the witchcraft persecution of Dame Alice Kyteler and her acquaintances. Alice herself, a wealthy Kilkenny woman, whose affluence had caused accusations of obtaining wealth with the help of the dark arts, was able to escape to England. But at least one other person belonging to this alledgedly `diabolical nest of heretics (to use Ledrede's own words), namely Alice's servant Petronella de Midia (Petronilla of Meath), after having confessed under torture, was burned at the stake in Kilkenny on November 3, 1324. According to John Clyn, this was the first execution for heresy in Ireland. Another Franciscan bishop, Roger Cradock, bishop of Waterford (1350-61) brough several Irish people to trial in Killaloe (where he did not have official jurisdiction). These people were burned in 1355. Richard continued his `inquisitional' activities throughout the active years of his episcopate. This brought him several enemies inside and outside his diocese (as can be seen from 1351 accusations that Ledrede was trumping up charges of heresy against simple people in order to extort money from them). Next to his rather ruthless dealings, Richard is foremost known for his Latin religious songs (to be sung on popular melodies, as can be deducted from the clichés or timbres that furnish twelve of Richard’s compositions, and indicate which melodies of popular secular songs should be used), to be performed during special feast days, and providing both laudatory as well as explicit categetical messages for the clerics in his service. With his Latin poetry, which have survived in the so-called ‘Red Book of Ossory’, Richard stood in a ‘Franciscan’ tradition (witness the Latin poetry of Grosseteste and Pecham, the English poetry of William Herebert and the French poetry of Nicholas Bozon, but also the wider Franciscan tradition alluded to by Salimbene, when he mentions how friar Henry of Pisa composed the Latin hymn Christe deus Christe meus, Christe rex et domine, after hearing a maidservant singing in the Pisan church a vernacular song (E s’tu no cure de me, E non curaro de te. Cf. Salimbene, Cronica, ed. Holder-Egger, 181-182). The editor Edmund Colledge suggests that Ledrede’s poems betray a religious sentimentality akin to that found in the Meditationes Vitae Christi and comparable works of Franciscan origin. Many of Ledrede’s hymns also contain direct or indirect references to hymns and antiphons found in the Franciscan breviary or other liturgical books.

manuscripts

The Red Book of Ossory (c. 1360): Kilkenny, Episcopal Library. On ff. 6-10 we find Ledrede’s synodal decrees, and on ff. 70r-77r are found his Latin poems, some of which follow the melodies of vernacular songs (cf. numbers 8, 11, 17, 18, 19, 22, 24, 28, 30, 34, 40, and 41). Thirteen songs deal with Christmas (numbers 1 to 5, 10, 41, 47-49, 56-58), ten are for the Epiphany (numbers 8, 11, 13, 15, 33, 35, 38, 39, 51, 59), and ten for Easter (numbers 19 to 28). The titles of the poems are: (1, f. 70a) Cantilena de nativitate domini (Verbo caro factum est); (2, f. 70a) Alia cantilena de eodem festo (Natus est de virgine); (3, f. 70b) De eodem Festo (Vale mater Christi, virgo regia, in te mea spes); (4, f. 70b) De eodem Festo (Nato Marie filio); (5, f. 70c) Lingua manu opere; (6, f. 70c) Fons salutis nostre plene; (7, f. 70d) En christi fit memoria; (8, f. 70d) have mercy of me frere-Laus Christo regi nato; (9, f. 70d) Da da nobis nunc; (10, f. 71a) De radice virginis; (11, f. 71a) Mayde yn the moore lay-peperit virgo, virgo regia; (12, f. 71a-b) Christi parentele-laus domini; (13, f. 71b) Jubila rutila mater ecclesia; (14, f. 71b) Vale virgo christifera; (115, f. 71c) Cum Christus nascitur de matre virgine; (16, f. 71c) Amoris vinculo nos dei filius attraxit dulciter; (17 f. 71c-d) Alas hou sholdy synge-Succure mater Christi; (18, f. 71d) Harrow ieo su trahy Par fol amour de mal amy-Jhesu lux vera seculi; (19, f. 71d-72a) Have mercie on me frere barfote that ygo-Jam Christo moriente luxit ecclesia; (20, f. 72a) Resurexit dominus; (21, f. 72a-b) Dire mortis datus pene; (22, f. 72b) Do do nightyngale synges ful myrie-Dies ista gaudij; (23, f. 72b-c) En christi fit memoria, Plangentis Christi wlnera; (24, f. 72c-d) Have god day my lemmon et cetera-Resurgenti cum gloria gaudeat ecclesia; (25, f. 72d) Assunt festa paschalia gaudet mater ecclesia; (26, f 72d-73a) Resurexit a mortuis; (27, f. 73a) Dies venit dies tua; (28, f. 73b) Have merci of me frere-Maria noli flere sepulcro domini; (29, f. 73b) Languenti morbo funeris; (30, f. 73c) Gayneth me no garlond of greene bot hit ben of wythoues ywroght-Verum est quod legi satis plene codice sacro volumine; (31, f. 73c) Parens partum peperisti Jhesum dei filium; (32, f. 73c-d) Luca qua letatur mater ecclesia; (33, f. 73d) Rutilat ecclesia jubilat in mente; (34, f. 74a) Do do nyetyngale synges wel mury-Regem adoremus superne curie; (35, f. 74a-b) Gaude virgo mater christi; (36, f.74b) Christe redemptor omnium; (37, f. 74b-c) Miserans miserans parce redemptis; (38, f. 74c) Jhesu lux vera mencium; (39, f. 74c-d) Novum lumen apparuit; (40, f. 74d) Heu alas paramour-Vale mater virgo pura; (41, f. 74d-75a) Hey how the chavaldoures woke al nyght-En parit virgo regia en parit virgo regia; (42, f. 75a) Jhesu bone Jhesu pie; (43, f. 75a-b) Summe deus clemencie; (44, f. 75b) Scandenti supra sidera; (45, f. 75-b-c) O deus sancte spiritus; (46, f. 75c) Spiritus sanctus gracia in quo clarescunt omnia; (47, f. 75d) Canite canite wltu iocundo; (48, f. 75d) De solo rutilo sol alter oritur; (49, f. 76a) Verbum virgineum in venter properat; (50, f. 76a) Verbum virgineum inpregnans uterum; (51, f. 76b) Magi repatriant post data munera; (52, f. 76a-b) Maria decoquit panem salvificum; (53, f. 76b-c) Stupens intueor ventrem christifere; (54, f. 76d) O dei genitrix cui nulla similis; (55, f. 76d) Consendit Salamon ventrale ferculum; (56, f. 76d-77a) Maria virgo genuit manentem supra sidera; (57, f. 77a) Laudet cor deo deditum divinum natalicium; (58, f. 77a) O verbum dei filius deus origine; (59, f. 77a-b) Caritate nimia letemur hodie nos deo diligente; (60, f. 77b) Videbitis qualis et quantis Error in illecebris mundi sit.

Rizzerio di Muccia (Riccerio da Muccia, 1190 - 1236), beatus

Italian friar from Camerino. Studied law at Bologna university. In the sommer of 1220 (15 August), he heared Francis of Assisi preaching in Bologna (after his return from the Middle East). Together with his fellow student Pellegrino da Fallerone, Rizzerio asked Francis to accept him in the order. After his noviciate, Rizzerio spent some time with Francis in a Franciscan hermitage in the Rieti valley. Later, he became provincial minister of the March of Ancona province. After eight years of administrative duties as provincial minister, Rizzerio retreated to a cave north of Muccia where, according to the hagiographical tradition, he died on 7 February 1236. He was buried in a nearby chapel.After centuries of local veneration, he was officially beatified on 14 December 1838. To him are ascribed (with some uncertainty) several works, such as a Tractatus Utilissimus/Trattato Ascetico, Qualiter Anima, a series of Dicta Moralia etc.

Tractatus Utilissimus/Trattato Ascetico/Qualiter Anima: at least 10 and possibly even 21 manuscripts survive of the Latin version, a.o. Laurenz. Cod. Lat. Gadd.XXVIII, Plut.90.Inf ff. 169-172; Rome, Archivio del Collegio di Sant’Isidoro Cod. 1/85. There are also 5 Latin editions from the 16th century (Louvain, 1554; Venice, 1537, 1538, 1543, 1553). There also exists a thirteenth-century Italian translation (according to some made by Jacopone da Todi) as well as a fourteenth-century Italian verion. The Latin version has been edited in: S. Chiumenti, Il Beato Rizzerio (Perugia, 1977), 129-176. On the Italian version, see, M. Faloci-Pulignani, ‘Il trattato di Riccerio da Muccia’, Miscellanea Francescana 8 (1908), 113-116; DSpir VIII, 22 & E. Menestò, ‘Il ‘Tractatus utilissimus’ attribuito a Jacopone da Todi’, Studi Medievali 18 (1977), 261-314. A modern Italian translation by A. Ghinato can be found in Vita Minorum 30 (1959), 263-270. Another Italian translation, based on a transcription of the Florentine manuscript, can be found in C. Vaiani, `Rizzerio di Muccia (d. 1236)', in: I mistici. Scritti dei mistici francescani, secolo XIII, ed. L. Iriarte, L. Temperini, C. Bove & E. Cardi (Assisi, 1995), I, 39-63: ‘Come l’anima può giungere rapidamente alla conoscenza delle verità e possedere la pace perfetta.’ The work had a surprizingly large diffusion in England during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries: An English translation of the work was included in the 1583 edition of the Manual of Prayer of the Anglican Church [Full title of the Latin work is: Quomodo potest homo/anima ad veritatis cognitionem pervenire et perfectam pacem possidere. In 52 reflections, the author sketches the way to arrive at the knowledge of christian truth and the possession of veritable peace of mind and soul. The start is a retreat from the things of the world and from the self, thus making it possible for God to take possession of the soul. Thus, God becomes the light with which one can see the true reality of all things, through which one 's virtues are fully perfected and by which both the corporal senses and the spiritual sense is fully made at peace. The conclusion of the work stresses the importance of self-negation and of becoming dead to the created world.]

Robertus Caracciolus de Licio (Roberto Caracciolo da Lecce/Robertus Liciensis, c. 1425- 6 May 1495)

Received his early education by the Conventual Franciscans in Lecce, but made his profession as an Observant friar. >From 1448 onwards great successes as preacher and organiser of processions against the plague, and as promotor of social peace. Gave the official eulogy during the canonization ceremonies for Bernardine of Siena (1450), and made various preaching tours through the Italian peninsula (was called a ‘second Paul’). Switched to the Conventuals in 1452, which fuelled the conflicts between the rivalling branches. Caraccioli received a lot of support at the papal curia, and was granted almost full freedom of movement in 1454 by papal bull (Nicholas V). Caracciolo preached the crusade against the Turcs. Calixt III appointed him to the position of apostolic collector for the Roman region (1455), and subsequently for Lombardy and Monferrato. Good contacts with Francesco Sforza and with cardinal Bessarion. After 1470, Caracciolo preached predominantly in southern Italy (Naples. Lecce). Sixtus IV appointed him bishop of Aquino in 1475. In February 1484, he was transferred to the diocese of Lecce, but Innocent VIII returned him to Aquino. Carcciolo died in Lecce and was buried in the church of San Francesco della Scarpa.

In the course of his career, Caracciolo published several sermon collections (making avid use of the new possibilities offered by the printing press), which went through more than 100 editions all over Europe. Until now, there is not a full overview of his actual production. Apparently, Oriana Visanni is presently working on a list of all manuscripts.

Roberto called himself a pupil of the sermon style of Bernardino da Siena and mentioned in his Sermo de Sancto Bernardino some 20 famous Franciscan preachers who were in this ‘Bernardine school’: ‘Quin imo et si qui post ipsum in officio predicandi clari sunt habiti ut fratres Joannes de Capistrano, Jacobus de Marchia, Mattheus de Sicilia, Antonius de Botonto, Andreas de Sancto Geminio, Joannes de Prato, Jacobus de Doncellis de Bononia, Herculanus de Perusio, Franciscus de Trevio, Silvester de Senis, Antonius de Ariminio, Michael de Mediolano, Bartholomeus de Ayano, Antonius de Vercellis, Seraphinus de Gaieta, Cherubinus de Spoleto, Franciscus de Spoleto, Hieronimus de Florentia, Dominicus de Gonessa, Jacobus de Gallio: omnes fratres minores in hoc genere dicendi famosissimi et quicumque alii etiam de aliis ordinibus mendicantium pro maiori parte conati sunt imitari modum et regulam atque stilum ipsius sancti Bernardini (…) Ego etiam (…) Bernardinum habui in stilo pronunciandi necnon scribendi patrem et precectorem…’ Robertus Caracciolus, Sermones de Laudibus Sanctorum (Venice, 1489), f. 200 (Rome, Biblioteca Angelica Inc. 538). Cited from Michele Monaco, ‘Aspetti di vita privata e pubblica nelle citta’ italiane centro-settentrionali durante il XV secolo nelle prediche del beato Bernardino da Feltre Francescano dell’Osservanza’, in: L’Uomo e la storia. Studi storici in onore di Massimo Petrocchi, Storia e letteratura. Raccolta di studi e testi 153 (Rome, 1983), 77-196, 88-89.[interestingly, some important Italian Observant preachers are absent in this list, such as Bernardino da Feltre]

Robertus de la Bassée (Robertus de Bascia d. 1280?)

Flemish friar from La Bassée, near Lille (Rijssel). Entered the order in the French province. Studied at the Paris studium generale, where he eventually lectured on the Sentences as Baccalaureus Sententiarum. Not known whether he reached the magisterium. Took part in the Franciscan committee that made a commentary on the Franciscan rule (1241, Expositio Quattuor Magistrorum). Custos of Arras in 1254; approved the renovation of the Lille convent. Probably died c. 1280. To him are ascribed various works, such as a Liber de Anima, a Commentarium in Quatuor Libros Sententiarum, and several sermons. These works have not yet been found. According to some, Robert would have been part of the team that prepared the first redaction of the Summa Halensis. The fact that Rober was one of the four ‘magistri’ asked to provide a dependable rule commentary in 1241 (a commentary that was accepted on the general chapter of Bologna (1242) and became a starting point for many later rule commentaries), shows that he was a well-respecte theological authority within the order.

Robertus de Leicester (d. after 1300)

Computist. Studied and taught at the Oxford Studium, where he was the 48th Franciscan regent master. In 1294, he dedicated to Richard Swinfield, bishop of Hereford, his treatise De Ratione Temporum sive de Computo Hebraeorum Aptato ad Kalendarium Latinorum. In the 1320s, he still was resident of the Oxford convent, and one of the two magistri extranei of Balliol college. He might have died at Lichfield in 1348 (yet A.G. Little thinks that there is no proof of that). Aside from this computist work, he also must have produced a Sentences commentary, Quodlibeta, and an Enchiridion Paenitentiale. Only the last work can be charted in the manuscripts.

Robert Messier (Robert Le Messier, d. 1546)

OFMConv-OFMObs. French friar. Took the habit in the Amiens convent in the French province (c. 1480?). Studied theology and reached the magisterium theologiae at the University of Paris. Guardian of the Amiens convent in 1497. Apparently had some difficulties at the custodial and provincial level when he tried to introduce the regular Observance in the Amiens convent (1502). Thereupon minister general Aegidius Delphini chose him and a colleague to reform all not yet Observant convents in the French province (1503, cf. AFH 69 (1976), 118-120). Robert was guardian of the Troyes convent (1504), commissioner for the minister general at the Paris convent (1525), and guardian of the Paris convent (1526). Two times (1523 and 1529) he was chosen provincial minister of the French province, and afterwards he was for some years custodian of the Vermandois custody (1532-1535). In the late 1530s or early 1540s he retreated as confessor to the Poor Clare monastery of Longchamp, where already during the 1520s he had acted as spiritual counsellor of the nuns. He died there on 23 July 1546, and was buried in the convent church (not far from the grave of the beatified Isabelle of France (d. 1270)). During his lifetime, Robert Messier published a sermon collection (Super Epistolas, February 1525/new edition in 1531). Aside from this, he wrote an Adresse de Salut for the Poor Clare Marie de Livres of Longchamp. According to the Acta Sanctorum (AASS 31 August VI (Antwerp, 1743), 796-797), Robert would also have composed an Officium for the commemoration of Isabelle of France. Thus far, this latter work has not been found.

manuscripts/editions

Super Epistolas et Evangelia totius quadragesimae Sermones (Paris: Cl. Chevallon, 15 Febr. 1525/Paris: J. Petit, 1531) [The 1525 edition, an exemplar of which can be found at the Franciscan provincial library of Toulouse, contains a privilige accorded by the parliament of Paris, mentioning Robert Messier as commissioner for the minister general at the Grand Couvent de Paris. Both editions contain a complete cycle of sermons from Ash Wednesday to the Octave of Easter.]

Adresse de Salut: MS Paris BN Français 1888 ff. 1-136v [The manuscript is a 1523 copy made by the Franciscan friar François Le Herice, who at that time was confessor at Longchamp. The work, adressed at the Poor Clare Marie de Livres (and other female religious of Longchamp) consists of two books. The first one (ff. 1-34v) deals with the road of purgation. It means to purge the spiritual eyes by means of three ‘journeys’: through confusion, confession and satisfaction. The second book (ff. 35r-136v) follows the road of illumination, and focuses on the gifts of God that illuminate our attempts at sanctifying the self, namely proper confidence, the help of the guardian angel, Christ’s redeeming work, the efficacy of grace, the usefulness of creation as an image of God, Holy Scripture, the sacraments, spiritual peace, etc. The author maked abundant use of biblical citations, images and analogies drawn from sacred and profane history, and repeatedly refers to the Church fathers (esp. Augustine) and aknowledged meditative authorities (notably Bernard of Clairveaux)]

Roger Bacon (Rogerus Baco, 1214-1292)

English friar. Studied the liberal arts at Oxford (either c. 1227/28 or 1235/6), where, according to some modern scholars, he was influenced by the teachings of Grosseteste. Further studies of the arts in Paris and active as master of arts (before 1245). Return to Oxford ca. 1251. Pursuit of sciences and study of theology. In 1257 return to Paris, ailments. C. 1256/7 entrance in the Franciscan order. Repeatedly under attack by order superiors for his scientific enthousiasm (which exhibited itself in a wide range of writings. Regularly held in confinement. Asked by pope Clement IV to present his scholarly program in 1267. This resulted in Bacon's triple Opus: the Opus Majus, the Opus Minus and the Opus Tertium. Bacon died shortly after the completion of his Compendium Studii Theologiae in 1292. Throughout the late Middle Ages and the Renaissance, Bacon’s influence can predominantly be traced in the fields of epistemology/semantics, perspective theory/optics, (al)chemy/medicine, and interpretations of ‘scientia experimentalis’.

Rudolfus de Biberach (ca. 1270 - after 1326)

Friar from Biberach (neighbourhood of Ulm). Predominantly active in the vicinity of Strasbourg. Between 1304-1319 confessor and executor-testamentair of the Strasbourg Hauwart family. Famous spiritual teacher. By papal privilege he became confessor at the court of the dying duke Leopold of Austria (who also was ‘Landgraf’ of Alsace since 1314; died 28 February 1326). According to two manuscripts, he was lector at the Studium Generale of Strasbourg (Fribourg, Cordelier 107 & Fribourg Cordelier 136, f. 142: `…septem itinera eternitatis compilata et collecta a fratre Rudolpho de Biberach Lectore Ordinis Fratrum Minorum' & f. 68r: `…compilatus a lectore de Bibraco in Argentina.'; probably between 1304 and 1319, when he appears in charters of the city of Strasbourg, as confessor and executor of the will of the Hauwart family). Some other manuscripts indicate further academic activities at Paris, as well as a master degree (Cf. Venice Marc. CCXLV ff. 256v & Oxford, Bodl. 8, f. 1r: `…editus a reverendo magistro fratre Rudolfo de Bibracho ordinis fratrum minorum.'; Lambach 102 f. 149ra; Glorieux, Répertoire des maîtres en théologie, II (Paris, 1933), no. 305.50, 352 & 360). Apparently, Rudolf did not pursue further academic interests for long after obtaining his alleged master degree. He is foremost famous for his penitential works, his affective spiritual works (in particular his De Septem Itineribus Aeternitatis, which amounts to a form of sythematic theological mysticism), and his sermons. His mystical works received several translations in Medieval German and Medieval Dutch. [For editions and manuscripts of these translations, see esp. M. Schmidt, in , Die deutsche Literatur des Mittelalters. Verfasserlexikon, VIII, 319-321] Interestingly [as we can conclude on the basis of : Die siben Strassen zu Got, ed. M. Schmidt, Spicilegium Bonaventurianum, VI (Quaracchi, 1969), 24*-26*], the (Latin) work was more popular among the Carthusians and the Augustinian canons, as well as among secular clercs than among Franciscans and Dominicans. Apparently, Rudolf’s writings did fit very well in the predominantly ascetical and mystical character of the Carthusian religious life. [For the late medieval and early modern (up till the 18th cent.) reception and use by other authors, see in particular the same work of Schmidt, pp. 33*-53*].

Work has a strong compilatory character and gives prominence to the cognitio Dei experimentalis. See for further information DSpir XIII, 847-850 and the works of M. Schmid, esp. her edition of the German translation, pp. 10*-17*, where she lists no less than 109 manuscripts of the Latin work from all over Europe. Maybe the popularity of the work was enhance by the fact that it was often transcribed under the name of Bonaventure.]

A full fourteenth-century German translation of De Septem Itineribus Aeternitatis, has survived under the title Dis sint die siben Strassen die in Gott wisent: ms Einsiedeln 278 f. 3a-147b. This translation (dating from ca. 1346-1360), which apparently is very faithfull and gives creative vernacular renderings of the Latin theological concepts, probably was made in the neighbourhood of Basel.

The work of Rudolph has survived in at least 24 mss. See for further information the work of M. Schmidt, esp. her edition of the German translation of De Septem Itineribus, pp. 22*-24*]
