CORRADO di BRUNDELSHEIM. — Abbot (by surname Soccus = perhaps Schul) of the Cistercian monastery of Heilsbronn (v.) or Fons salutis (diocese of Bamberg), died on 31 October 1321.
Learned in Sacred Scripture, scholastic theology, and belles-lettres, he left, in addition to noteworthy commentaries on Albertus Magnus’s work on the 4 books of the Sentences, 4 volumes of valuable Sermones on the Sundays and feasts of the entire year (published in 1474). These sermons, delivered in the chapter house to his confrères, are called in vocis.
Perhaps C. is to be identified with the famous “monk of Heilsbronn.”
