Jacobus de Teramo

Jacobus Palladinus de Teramo (1349–1417), a member of the powerful family of Palladini, was an Italian canon lawyer and bishop.

His birthplace, Teramo, was then part of the Kingdom of Naples (now in the Italian region of Abruzzo).

At the Council of Pisa (June 1409) in the conclave that elected Alexander V, he was among the followers of Gregory XII and Benedict XIII.

Jacobus is the author of a commentary on Peter Lombard's Libri quatuor sententiarum ("Sentences," printed at Augsburg, 1472); of a dialogue entitled De Pontificis Romani monarchia ("Of the Monarchy of the Roman Pontiffs"; not printed); and of a peculiar tract (written ca 1382) entitled Consolatio peccatorum, seu Processus Luciferi contra Jesum Christum.

It was printed as late as 1611 at Hanover, as Processus Luciferi contra Iesum coram Iudice Salomone [1].
