Antonius de Butrio

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Antonius de Butrio (1338-1408), also called Antonio da Butrio, was an Italian jurist and a noted teacher of law at Bologna.

De Butrio composed numerous commentaries to the Decretals of Gregory IX and the Liber Sextus, which provide a comprehensive impression of the contemporary practice of canon and civil law. In 1408, he also negotiated on behalf of Gregory XII about the end of the Western Schism.
