Martinus Glossator

Italian original Cite

MARTINUS GLOSSATOR. - This name occurs several times in the glosses to the Decretum Gratiani and to the Compilationes antiquae (cod. Vat. lat. 1367; cod. Halen. Ye. 52, Ioh. Galensis Apparatus, Laurentii Hispanii Apparatus) and is cited by later glossators and canonists (Ugolino, Pillio, Hostiensis), but it has not been possible to identify him.

Identity with Martinus Florentinus must be excluded, since Genzmer proved the groundlessness of Riedner's assertion that Pillio was a disciple of M. G., demonstrating that the latter died between 1158 and 1166, whereas Martinus Florentinus, a canon at Bologna, appears in the acts of the Chapter from 1195 to 1233, is known as a canonist in 1207, and is found among the Bolognese crusaders at Damietta in 1230. For the same reason, Laspeyres's hypothesis that this is Martinus Hispanus (known between 1274 and 1298) falls away, and that concerning Martinus Zamorensis (Gillmann) remains.
