Bartholomew of San Concordio

He was appointed lector at the studium particularis theologiae at Santa Maria sopra Minerva in 1299,[1] which has sprung from the studium provinciale at Santa Sabina in 1288, and which was the forerunner to the College of Saint Thomas at the Minerva convent, and the Pontifical University of Saint Thomas Aquinas, Angelicum.

[2] A preacher of renown, Bartolomeo was as learned as he was devout, as skilled in Latin and Tuscan poetry as he was versed in canon and civil law.

Evidently a highly useful digest, it was very popular and much used during the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, and was among the first books undertaken by some of the earliest printers of Germany, France, and Italy.

Others likewise incorporated the work in later handbooks, notably James of Ascoli, O. M., 1464, and Ange de Clavasio, O.M., in his "Summa Angelica".

on moral and literary subjects, his works include "De documentis antiquorum", edited by Albertus Clarius, O. P. (Tarvisi, 1601) in 8 vo.
