Prosper of Reggio Emilia (theologian)

Prosper of Reggio Emilia (died 1332/1333) was an Augustinian hermit and scholar.

He served the order as a lector at Milan before returning to Paris to complete his studies.

[2] By 1321, he was the regent of the Augustinian studium generale in Bologna, where he taught until his death in 1332 or 1333.

[3] Prosper's notebook survives in the Vatican Library, where it has been bound together with his extensive but incomplete commentary on the Sentences as Vat.

[6] Like Durand of Saint-Pourçain, Prosper attacked the then reigning theory of cognitive habits.
