Civil Law Scholars and Codifiers

Albericus de Rosciate was an Italian legal scholar and practicing jurist born around 1290 who died in 1354 or 1360. He studied law at the University of Padua, worked as a lawyer in Bergamo, served the Visconti rulers of Milan, and acted as an ambassador to the papal court at Avignon. His writings won him a high reputation, especially among practical jurists; his commentaries on the Digest and the Codex were frequently reprinted across Europe, notably in Lyon and Milan, and his Dictionarium, a collection of legal maxims and a legal dictionary, became widely circulated, shaping legal education and practice through the medieval and early modern periods.
