Latin text of the foundation statutes of the Spanish College as they were revised in 1375-1377 by command of Pope Gregory X I and to make this text accessible in translation to readers interested in the fourteenth century and in the history of education. A translation may prove useful even to those familiar with Latin texts, for the statutes are written in a language which is often crabbed and sometimes obscure. They are a characteristic example of the legal style of fourteenth-century documents. The sentences are excessively involved and tortuous, their construction occasionally faulty and frequently confusing. Barbarisms are found throughout, and the vocabulary combines, in a manner that is not without interest, popular words with technical legal words. The Spanish College was founded in Bologna by Gil (Egidio) Alvarez Carillo Albornoz, Cardinal Bishop of Sabina and Legate General in Italy. In the last will and testament, which he dictated on September 29, 1364, at Ancona, he provided for the foundation and permanent endowment of a college to be set up in Bologna for the benefit of poor Spanish students. When he died at Viterbo on August 23, 1367, after a spectacular career as ecclesiastic, military leader, and lawgiver, his executors settled the estate, opened the college, and in compliance with his will, declared its members residuary legatees. Little changed from its original form, the Spanish College 9

functions today in the heart of the ancient university city of Bologna much as it did when it was established. This survival is largely due to the imaginative wisdom of the founder, to a series of outstanding rectors, and to the solid judgment of the executors of his will, who drew up the statutes printed below. These are interesting for a variety of reasons. Not only do they give a lively picture of the daily life of the students at Bologna during the latter part of the fourteenth century; they also shed light upon some aspects of medieval education. As a legal document, moreover, they constitute an ingenious compromise between the excessively democratic organization of the University of Bologna at the time and the Cardinal Founder's ideal of discipline, law, and order. The present text is based on a fifteenth-century manuscript discovered in 1889 by Hastings Rashdall in the Phillipps Library at Cheltenham. This unique manuscript was purchased by Mr. Howard L. Goodhart of New York City, who suggested that I undertake this publication. Mr. Goodhart was a humanist, devoted to the study of the late-fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, which he knew intimately, and a passionate collector of manuscripts, incunabula, and rare books. I deeply regret that he could not see this edition of his manuscript of the statutes, for he took a particular interest in it and had attempted to trace its history. T o his memory and to his daughter, Mrs. John D. Gordan, who is herself engaged on an edition and translation of Poggio's correspondence, this book is gratefully dedicated. Particular thanks are due to the Rector of the Spanish College, Dr. Evelio Verdera y Tuells, and to its Chaplain and Curator, Don Marcelino Martin de Castro, for their courteous hospitality and for their liberality in making available to me the documents in the college archives. It gives me pleasure to acknowledge my debt to Professor Vittorio Fanelli of Rome, who has devoted many years to the study of Cardinal Albor-

I also wish to thank Professor Giuseppe Vecchi of the University of Bologna; Professor Bernhard Bischoff of the University of Munich; Professors Martin R. P. McGuire and S. Kuttner of the Catholic University of America for valuable suggestions; Professor Stelling-Michaud, who found at the Vatican and gave me permission to publish the first rotulus of the Spanish College; and Mrs. Annie Dunlop of St. Andrews University, who helped solve some of the difficulties in its text. Thanks are also due to the staffs of the State Archives in Bologna, of the Archivio Segreto of the Vatican, of the Cantonal Library in Lausanne, and of the American Academy in Rome. A grant from the Primrose Fund of the Philosophical Society of America made the research in Bologna possible, and one from the Madge Miller Fund of Bryn Mawr College helped toward the preparation of the manuscript for publication.

of the thirteenth or at the start of the fourteenth century, Gil (Egidio) Alvarez Carillo Albornoz inherited from his father, Garcia Alvarez de Albornoz, the spirit of the military leaders who had made the house of Albornoz illustrious. From his mother, Teresa de Luna, sister of Kimeno (Ximenes) de Luna, Archbishop of Toledo, he came into high Church connections and derived an interest in ecclesiastical affairs. Circumstances, as well as his own ambition and ideals, combined to turn to account his double heritage. His career was as brilliant as it was varied.1 After being educated at Saragossa, he studied law at Toulouse and there acquired the training which made him one of the most astute legal minds of his day. Soon after being granted his doctorate in canon law, he received various ecclesiastical benefices and became a favorite of King Alfonso XI, who made him, in spite of his youth, a member of the King's Council. His ascent in the Church hierarchy was also swift. First Deacon and then Archdeacon of Calatrava, he presently succeeded his uncle as Archbishop of Toledo in 1339 and thereby became Primate of Spain. He spent many years fighting the Moors in Andalusia. At the head of an army from his own bishopric, he engaged them at Tarifa in October, 1340, and there is said to have saved the life of Alfonso XI. 13

He distinguished himself at the siege and capture of Algeciras in 1344 and at the siege of Gibraltar in 1349. He had made the acquaintance of Pope Clement V I in the course of a mission to Avignon, where he negotiated a tax to be levied on the revenues of the Church for a crusade against the Moors. Impressed by his diplomatic ability and by his reputation for military prowess, the Pope realized that the many-sided genius of Albornoz could be used to advantage to promote the interests of the Church. With the death of Alfonso X I and the ascent of Peter the Cruel in 1349, Albornoz fell into disgrace at the royal court, along with other favorites of Alfonso X I . He joined Pope Clement V I at Avignon in 1350 and, in December of that year, was rewarded for his struggles against the Moors and his other activities on behalf of the Church by being elevated to the purple as Cardinal Priest of San Clemente. When in June, 1353, Clement's successor, Innocent V I sent Albornoz to Italy as papal legate a latere, with the task of recovering the Papal State, the Cardinal left Spain never to return. In 1355, he was made Cardinal Bishop of Sabina. From 1353 until his death in 1367, he toiled to reconquer the Pope's patrimony from the Italian tyrants or signori who, though still technically under the temporal sovereignty of the papacy, had gained possession of the quasi totality of the Papal State. The story of his two legations (1353-1357 and 1358-1367) and of the intrigues of his enemies, which twice led to his recall (1357 and 1363), has often been written. The archives of the Apostolic Chamber and the Spanish College abound in contemporary documents, many of them unpublished, which deal with his career and campaigns and give details about the fortifications he built, the favors he granted, and the heavy personal expenses he incurred. With selfless devotion, strength, courage, and imagination, and also with subtle cunning and devious machinations, he succeeded in regaining, at least formally,

many towns, among them Fermo, Cesena, Ancona, Spoleto, Viterbo, Bologna, Florence, and Siena; the lands of Romagna, Sabina, and the M a r c h ; and in winning over, defeating, or outmaneuvering the various rebels, Malatesta, Manfredi, Ordelaffi, Oleggio, Visconti, and others. T o regulate these lands, he promulgated, in April, 1357, a civil code of laws, variously known as the Constitutiones Aegidianae, Constitutiones Marchiae Anconitanae, or Liber Sanctae Matris Ecclesiae, which was in use until 1816 with only slight modifications. 2 By 1362, rebellion against the Church had been broken up, the conquest of the Papal State was sufficiently consolidated, and the situation stabilized enough for Albornoz to begin the negotiations for the return of the papacy from Avignon to Rome. He seemed to have achieved the highest of his life's goals when, on June 3, 1367, he met Pope Urban V at Corneto and planned to accompany him to Rome. 3 He unfortunately fell ill and had to retire to the castle of Belriposo, which he had built outside the city of Viterbo, and to let the Pope proceed south to make a triumphal entry into Rome without him on October 16, 1367. Of this event the Cardinal did not even hear the report, for he had died on August 23.4 He was buried at Assisi, but a few years later his remains were translated, as he had wished, to the chapel of S. Ildefonso in the cathedral of Toledo. 5 This was done with extraordinary pomp. The Pope decreed that the bells were to ring in all the places entered by the procession which accompanied the body and that those who carried the coffin, even for a short space, were to receive the jubilee indulgence. 0 A man of action and a prelate of learning and extraordinarily versatile ability, Cardinal Egidio Albornoz stands out among the great figures of the fourteenth century. Considered the honor and glory of his time by his biographer Sepulveda, he was said to equal or rival the rulers of ancient times, Trajan,

Hadrian, Theodosius, and was called "restauratore della libertà romana" by Coluccio Salutati. Modem historians have praised his genius and recognized the lasting significance of his achievements. Francis Ehrle characterizes him as ". . . . uomo non solo di ferrea fermezza, d'indomita energia, di infinite risorse, di astuzia veramente Viscontea, ma anche, ciò che importava più, un uomo sinceramente devoto alla Santa Chiesa.'" Gregorovius says that "chivalrous energy and a fervent faith, which degenerated neither into weak pietism nor into fanaticism, were united in the compatriot of S. Dominic." 8 THE S P A N I S H COLLEGE

In September, 1364, Pope Innocent VI authorized the Cardinal to make a testament and to dispose of the possessions and estate which he had acquired through inheritance or from the revenue from ecclesiastical benefices.8 His will was drawn up and duly witnessed at the Castle (Rocca) of Ancona, where he was then staying. The text of this lengthy document has often been published. Its most important provisions concerned the Spanish College to be built in Bologna, which he named his residuary legatee.10 He had for many years felt a particular interest in the city. For a variety of reasons, among which was its geographical position, Bologna had played in the past, and long continued to play, a prominent role in Europe politically and intellectually. The Cardinal had fought hard to wrest it from the usurpers and held its stability essential to the survival of the Papal State. One of his nephews became its Rector," and, shortly before his death, the Cardinal himself was made Papal Legate at Bologna. The town had received many benefits from him. To connect it with the river Reno, he had had a canal built which, for a long time, meant much to the life of its citizens.12

INTRODUCTION

Students from many nations filled Bologna's schools. The reputation of its teachers, both in canon and civil law, was unequaled anywhere. Heavy concentration upon one subject was a characteristic feature of the early universities. Paris meant philosophy and theology; Orléans, the arts; Salerno and Montpellier, medicine. From the time of Irnerius, at the beginning of the twelfth century, Bologna had won its highest fame in the field of jurisprudence. Yet, in spite of its specialization in both laws, the university had an excellent medical school and boasted of its liberal-arts course. Up to this time, however, few studia were empowered to grant the doctorate in sacra pagina. Cardinal Albornoz supported the university's request in 1360 for the establishment of a faculty of theology in the Bologna studium. Through his efforts, and after many difficulties, a theological faculty was inaugurated in 1364. Henceforth students at Bologna were able to work toward the theological degree and to graduate in sacra theologia ad magisterium, sicut in studio parisiensi.1' It has been said that "in many respects the work of the School of Bologna represents the most brilliant achievement of the intellect of medieval Europe."" The city was eminently suited, therefore, to be a center for foreign students interested in various fields of knowledge.15 Spaniards had long been found here and belonged to the student association, or guild, of the Ultramontani, the students who came from beyond the Alps.1' Before we investigate in some detail the organization of the college founded by the Cardinal for his compatriots, it may be well to define the terms college and university as they were understood in the Middle Ages. What we would call a university today was then known as a studium generale, and the word universitas (which means "a whole") designated the students' associations." Such associations, uniting the various national societies of students (or in some cities, Paris in particular, of both students and teachers), were essential for the legal pro-

T H E S P A N I S H C O L L E G E AT BOLOGNA

tection of students against local governments and the greed of individuals. Other, smaller associations, however, were needed to deal with the acute problem of living in a foreign city, of finding board and room at a reasonable price. Ecclesiastics, students of canon law and theology, could be housed and fed in monasteries, but this was not possible for students of civil law, medicine, and the arts. Youths who could not afford to set up private residence or to board in masters' houses would often get together in small groups in order to rent houses and to form eating clubs. These voluntary associations would then establish themselves as self-governing corporations and would generally elect a principal or rector and officers and would frame a necessary minimum of regulations. These became known as colleges, a collegium, in Roman law, being a corporation or guild. An early example is the Collège des Dix-huit, which consisted, when it was set up in 1180 in Paris, of a single room in the Hotel Dieu." During the thirteenth century, various philanthropists founded and endowed such colleges in order to enable poor boys to pursue their studies. The Sorbonne, for instance, was originally a residence in Paris for students who had taken the degree of master of arts and were entering upon the long course which led to the doctorate in theology.19 It was founded in 1257 by Saint Louis's Chaplain, Robert de Sorbonne. The fourteenth century witnessed the foundation of a great number of such colleges. They were fairly numerous in Paris, where an interesting example was Ave Maria College. In most university towns, men endowed houses to secure shelter and board for needy students. There were several in Toulouse, where Egidio Albornoz had been granted his doctorate, and a few also in Bologna.10 One had been established there in 1267 by Zoen Tencararius, a Bolognese Bishop of Avignon ( 1242— 1261), who had made sufficient provision in his will to take care at Bologna of eight youths from the diocese of Avignon,

three to be selected from among the canons of the cathedral, two from the secular clerics of Avignon, and one from some other place within the diocese. This college was merged with the Collegio Gregoriano in 1436. Another, founded in 1326 by Guglielmo di Corvi of Brescia, Archdeacon of Bologna, was known as the Collegio Bresciano and was modeled on Robert de Sorbonne's foundation. The Collegio Reggiano was established in Bologna in 1362 by the will of a physician, Guido Bagnoli Ferrarmi, for students from the district of Reggio Emilia. Pope Urban V supported poor scholars in Bologna.'1 None of these foundations survived beyond the fifteenth century. Several were merged with the more prosperous college, the Collegio Gregoriano, founded by Pope Gregory at Bologna in 1371, but which was suppressed in 1472. Others opened later but did not last, for instance the Collegio Ancarano and the Collegio Montalto during the sixteenth century and another one founded by André Vives in 1528 for Spanish students at the University of Bologna. Its statutes were in part modeled upon those of Cardinal Albornoz's college, the history and organization of which will now be described briefly. The ability to plan for the future on a generous scale, imaginatively and with minute attention to details, is as apparent in the Cardinal's last will as it had been in his actions throughout his life. In the testament, dated September 29, 1364, several general executors were named, Italians as well as Spaniards. Measures were immediately taken to execute, while he was still alive, some of the testamentary dispositions. A procurator was selected, who had lists made of the Cardinal's scattered possessions." An inventory of the books bequeathed to the college by the Cardinal is found in the State Archives of Bologna, among the memoriali for the year 1365 of the notary Felice Alberghi.13 T o one of his nephews, Fernando Alvarez de Albornoz, who was to become Archdeacon of Toledo after the Cardinal's death, and to his chamberlain, Alfonso

Fernandez, Abbot of Valladolid, and later archdeacon of Toledo, fell the responsibility of dealing with all the business and administrative matters connected with the projected college. These men were requested by the terms of the will to spend at least two years in Bologna for this purpose, and a salary was to be provided for them during this period out of the estate.24 They were to choose a seemly spot for the establishment, conveniently near the schools yet far from the noise of the city. There were to be gardens, a chapel in honor of Saint Clement (San Clemente had been the Cardinal's titular church), and both public and private rooms.25 The college was to be named the Spanish House (domus hispanica), but in time it came to be better known as Collegium Sancti Clementis, Collegium Hispanorum, or Collegium Maius Hispaniarum Sancti Clementis."6 Deeds of sale and other documents in the college archives and in the state archives of Bologna show that in 1364 and continuing for several years thereafter the two men began to purchase houses and lands in the neighborhood of the churches of Santa Maria delle Muratelle and of S. Cristoforo di Saragozza.2' After a block of houses had been bought from the Delfini family and others, a public street which ran through it was closed by decree of the Cardinal Legate, Andruino.2" T o design the building, the Cardinal had selected a wellknown architect, Matteo Gattaponi of Gubbio, to whom he had previously entrusted the planning of the Rocca of Spoleto in 1362; and, to adorn it with murals, he chose Andrea de Bartoli of Bologna.29 Matteo was already in Bologna in April, 1365, when he signed, along with other witnesses, the document concerning the Cardinal's books left to the college.30 His work for the Spanish House lasted until February, 1367; his salary was duly paid, and the fact is recorded in the expense book of the college. The contract is still extant that was drawn up between the Cardinal's representatives and Andrea di

Pietro, master mason, and several other masons, for the erection of the walls, gates, and staircases of the various buildings that were to constitute the college and chapel. Among other notarial acts are itemized records of expenses for building materials and the like, and receipts acknowledging payment for work done by the masons.31 Although the Cardinal did not live to witness the opening of the college, the building was completed before he died. When, at the point of death, he added a codicil, dated August 23, 1367, to his will, he could note with satisfaction that much for which he had made provision in his testament had already been achieved. 31 Speedy measures were taken to settle the estate immediately following the Cardinal's death.33 Fernando Albornoz was declared to have the power to act as the executors' procurator. Inventories were prepared. On January 18, 1368, for instance, a certain Dominicus Micheli was paid for his expenses in making an inventory of the Cardinal's possessions in Ancona.3* A series of documents, preserved in the college archives, shows the expeditious measures taken to pay out all legacies and to execute the terms of the Cardinal's will.35 On M a y 12, 1368, the executors or their delegates and substitutes met in Bologna to make public the Cardinal's bequests and to account for the manner in which they were supervising the settlement of the estate, complying with the Cardinal's wishes, and carrying out and executing his will. The declaratio testamentaria was drawn up and witnessed in the palace of Cardinal Anglicus. 36 It was several years before the settlement of this vast estate could be completed. 3 ' Anxious that the Spanish House should be opened without delay, the executors urged the Cardinal's nephew and chamberlain to administer the business of the new foundation as speedily as possible and to set it up in the form of a college. On the seventh of April, 1369, they made an agreement with representatives of the monasteries of S. Vittorio and S. Gio-

vanni in Monte, which was signed and witnessed in the college building itself.38 The record of the procedure followed on this occasion by the corporation indicates that the members were operating under foundation statutes very similar to those in the present book. The method they observed to call the chapter together and to hold the meeting, the decision taken according to the majority vote of the members, considered as the Cardinal's heirs, correspond in every detail to the forms prescribed in the extant version of the statutes.39 In recognition of the great benefactions which they had received from the Cardinal, who had been their prior, the monks undertook under this agreement the obligation to hold certain ecclesiastical functions on the eve and to say a yearly anniversary Mass on the day of the Cardinal's death. The members of the college who were present at this meeting signed their names.40 The list does not include the complete membership of the college in the first year of its history. It may be completed by another one, discovered by the present Curator of the archives and Chaplain of the college, Dom Marcelino de Castro. This second list, found in the expense book of the college, includes the names of all those who were given the statutory garments for the year 1368-1369 and provides the names of seven more scholars who may have been absent or too young to be entitled to sign the agreement just mentioned between the college chapter and the representatives of the two united monasteries. It also adds the names of three chaplains41 who, by statute, could not be members of the chapter. The college began to function immediately, and the registers of the Bolognese notaries abound in acts dealing with its affairs. In December, 1370, for instance, we find a certain Pietro de Predalbino renting a shop from the college procurator.42 Lectures in theology were set up in the college before 1371, for a document of this date mentions a certain brother of the Order of Preachers who is to be admitted to lecture on the Sententi-

arum libri quatuor (Peter Lombard's Four Books of Sentences).*3 There were some difficulties at the start. The restriction of the scholarships, established in accordance with the Cardinal's testament, to Spanish students appears to have been questioned, and there is a papal confirmation of it dated September, 1371." Meanwhile the college, as the Cardinal's residuary legatee, was not satisfied with some of the executors' decisions and objected to what its members considered excessive disbursements, prejudicial to the endowment of the college. They took action and claimed a larger sum than had been deposited in their treasury and settled as endowment. The judges ruled in favor of the commissaries and executors. The original document containing the grievances and the final compromise arrived at between the parties, dated May 21, 1372, is found in the archives of the college and in the state archives of Bologna.45 The document is signed by the members of the college, and so we have another list of names of those connected with its first years. At first the college prospered, and its revenues increased sufficiently to make possible the addition in 1375 of six scholars, to be admitted regularly, over and above the original complement of twenty-four. We know from somewhat later evidence that the scholars of the Spanish college belonged to the foreign students' guild. One Pietro di Portogallo, for instance, a student of canon law at the college, became rector of the Ultramontani in 1396-1397. 40 Lack of discipline and other scandals caused the Pope, in a letter dated September 13, 1373, to request Pedro of Toledo, who, by this time, had become Bishop of Cuenca, to visit the college and to re-establish order within its walls.47 This led to the revision of the statutes that we shall examine in the next section.48 The first rotulus sent to the Pope, containing the names of the students enrolled in the college and in need of ecclesiastical benefices, is found in the Vatican

archives among the petitions, or supplicationes, for the year 1380.40 If another existed before that date, it appears to be no longer extant. In their petition, the rector and scholars request exemption for the college from all taxes and levies, and preferment or benefices with their revenues for the members of the college. The name, origin, faculty, and degree of each member is specified. Thus we have another early set of names, which may not be complete, since only twenty-seven members of the college are mentioned. Some of the scholars or chaplains may already have been provided for, or there may have been vacancies awaiting presentations by the patron churches of o

Spain. The history of the college cannot be written here. It has left its mark on the intellectual and political history of Spain and counts an extraordinary number of distinguished men among its alumni.51 Its importance was often acknowledged, and Pope Leo X granted its masters and doctors all the rights and privileges of holders of degrees from the University of Salamanca." Similar institutions, in Italy,83 as well as in Spain," modeled their constitutions upon it. Started during a most crucial time in the history of Bologna, the college suffered periods of decline, for the vicissitudes which afflicted Spain, as well as the city of Bologna, the papacy, and Italy, were always reflected in its condition. It survived the political involvements of the sixteenth century, when the students fought with the Spanish army on the side of Pope Julius II, and it enjoyed its greatest prosperity and luster soon thereafter. Though not unscathed, it came through the War of the Spanish Succession, the French Revolution, and other upheavals. Suppressed by Napoleon with all its possessions confiscated, it reopened when, at the peace of 1815, it received compensation for the lost property. Closed again when Italy achieved unification in 1861, it was able to function a few years later. It has success-

fully weathered the storms of recent wars and revolutions in Spain and Italy. The question of ecclesiastical and civil supervision and the nature of its relation to the Spanish crown, to the patron churches, and to the authorities of Spain and Italy have, in the course of time, created grave problems for the rector and the members of the college corporation. Its financial support and the manner of selecting the students for admission have radically changed, yet the college, housed in the same dignified and handsome buildings, retains, more faithfully than any college on the continent, the form and purpose of a medieval college. Whereas the many colleges founded in Bologna disappeared one after the other, the Spanish College survives today and is officially known as the Real Colegio Mayor Albornociano de San Clemente de los Españoles en Bolonia. It is administered under the direction of a Junta de Patronato that includes representatives of the Spanish church and universities, of the founder's family, and of the college itself, under the chairmanship of the Duque del Infantado. " I t must," says Rowse, "be the only survival of a mediaeval college on the Oxford and Cambridge model remaining on the continent." 55 Edward Armstrong calls it " a small English college translated into Italian." 56 Though "reduced to smaller dimensions than of old," it retains "more completely the old form and purpose of a mediaeval college than the more famous but more altered foundations which form the special glory of our English Universities." 5 '

records dealing with the early years of the college have been preserved there, but not a single manuscript of the fourteenthcentury statutes is among them. The history of the first constitution of the college is not entirely clear; for, although the Cardinal had demonstrated his brilliant skill as a legislator when he framed the Egidian Constitutions, he does not seem to have drawn up the early statutes of the college himself.55 Foundation statutes existed when the college opened in 1369, but who made them is not known; they are no longer extant, except in so far as they may have been incorporated in large part into the early 1375-1377 revision. The earliest reference to the statutory charter of the college is found in the executors' declaration of M a y 12, 1368. In this document, after stating the Cardinal's intention that only Spaniards should be admitted unless it were impossible to find adequately prepared Spanish students, the executors refer to the unpublished statutes of the college (". . . . secundum quod de omnibus predictis continetur in statutis dicti collegii iam factis licet nondum publicatis . . . ,").5° These statutes, which in May, 1368, were reported to have been made but not yet published, were doubtless inspired by Cardinal Albornoz, but there is no indication that he had a hand in drafting them. We have already seen that, in the same dcclQT&tio testament aria, the Cardinal's nephew and his chamberlain were entrusted with the task of opening the college and looking after all the business matters connected with it. They were also granted full power to ordain and to make statutes concerning the government of the college and the administration of its goods and possessions (". . . . ordinent et in eo formam collegii introducant ac statuta et ordinationes super regimine et gubernatione et rectorum administratione bonorum et rerum dicti collegii ac alia in premissis necessaria et oportuna faciant statuant componant et preuideant prout eis uidebitur con-

uenire . . .").*" This may suggest that the statutory charter just mentioned was still considered incomplete, since further statutes were contemplated. Soon after this, on September 25, 1369, the vicar general, Cardinal Anglicus, was requested by Pope Urban V, in a papal bull preserved in the college archives, to examine statutes submitted to him for approval by the Spanish College. The Cardinal was granted the power to approve them if he found them satisfactory and given leave to make suggestions or necessary changes. 8 ' The foundation statutes are again mentioned in a document dated October 12, 1370, an authentic copy of which is found in the college archives (the original is in the archives of the Cathedral of Toledo).62 This contains a statement by the executors concerning expenses incurred and disbursement made by them in the process of settling the Cardinal's estate. Among these, they specify a sum paid to a certain Dominicus in connection with the application to Rome for privileges for the college and for the Pope's approval of its statutes ("Item ascendunt expense per dictum Dominicum Fernandi facte in tribus litteris conseruatoriis et una ad priuilegia et statuta collegii per dictum bone memorie in Bononia fundati a domino nostro impetrata . . ."). These first statutes may conceivably be discovered some time in the archives of one of the patron churches in Spain or in some ecclesiastical archives in Italy. At any rate, they probably did not differ much from the revised version made in 1375-1377, which we are about to discuss, since the reformer, Pedro, Bishop of Cuenca, had already had a hand in drawing up the original charter. 63 The text of subsequent revisions, from the fifteenth century to the present time, shows how conservatively the men engaged in reforming the statutes of the college performed their task. The substance of the preceding version was always incorporated as far as possible into the new one and changes in form and content were kept to the barest necessary minimum. We

have seen" that trouble at the college caused the Pope to request Pedro of Cuenca to visit Cardinal Albornoz's foundation. Whether or not these difficulties were behind the desire expressed by the corporation for a revision of its statutes, we do not know. At any rate, in a bull dated January 7, 1375, now in the college archives and quoted in extenso in the preamble to the 1377 revision, Pope Gregory XI requested the Bishop of Cuenca to undertake the reform of the statutes.'5 He set to work immediately, and by November 20, 1377, his revision was completed and the new constitution, duly copied, corrected, and witnessed, was promulgated. If, as I have suggested, the original statutes formed the bulk of the new set, the task would not have been too onerous. The fact that the troubles mentioned in the bull ordering the visitation were of a disciplinary nature may explain the very detailed articles near the end of the revised version, all of which deal with quarrels, fights with or without weapons, brawls, etc., and also dice games, dances, and other forbidden frivolous activities. These articles may have formed the most important additions to the original version which, apart from some additional material,M some deletions, and more precise formulation, may have remained substantially unaltered. That sections of the original were incorporated verbatim is indicated by the fact that Pedro of Toledo, who was transferred from the bishopric of Osma to that of Cuenca in 1372, is given his new title in the bull of commission and in the letter to the college which form the introduction to the revised statutes; but in the proemium, which appears to have been the beginning of the original version, he is known by his earlier title, Bishop of Osma, which he held when the earliest statutes were written. Pedro himself makes it clear that he left untouched most of the earlier regulations and states that he cut out what should be cut, made some alterations and additions, and clarified what was ambiguous.*7

INTRODUCTION

The statutes printed here show that the constitution of the college reflected the democratic organization of the student university of Bologna. The scholars selected their officers, generally from their own ranks, by secret ballot. Like the student rectors of the studium, the rector of the Spanish College, who had to be a student, held great disciplinary, administrative, and financial powers and responsibilities. Four councilors, also elected by secret ballot, helped and advised him, and he was not authorized to act in important matters without their approval. All weighty business must be decided after consultation of the whole corporation, according to the opinion of the majority, the members having been notified previously that a meeting of the chapter would be held." Thus, the college was a self-governing body, democratic in character, since the authority was vested in the fellows and in the officers elected by them. This authority, however, was limited in various ways, precisely specified by the statutes. A system of checks and counterchecks, borrowed from earlier college and monastic rules, ensured against the dangers of laxity and abuse of power. Yearly visitations were provided for, and the visitator was requested to inquire searchingly into all matters of administration, finance, and discipline. Appeal was only possible in rare and specified cases. A Cardinal Protector was named as the final resort in cases of dispute and litigation; he could be appealed to if the rector appeared to be unjust, incompetent, or otherwise unworthy of his honorable position. As they appear in the manuscript and in the incunabulum which form the basis of the text printed in this book, the statutes are organized according to a rather loose plan into sixty-one articles, with some additional material at the beginning and at the end. Every aspect of the administration, government, finances, and discipline of the college and its members is taken up; regulations are clearly stated and exact penalties specified for every infraction to the rules. Thirty

THE S P A N I S H COLLEGE AT BOLOGNA

resident scholars, all Spaniards or Portuguese, who could be either clerks or laymen but not members of a religious order, were housed in the palace in which the college still functions today. Eight were to study theology, eighteen canon law, and four medicine. Students in the arts could be substituted for the latter. During their residence, the members of the corporation were considered coheirs of the Cardinal and were therefore jointly and severally responsible for the good administration of the estate. Large sums could not be spent without the approval of the majority. Provision was made for all to visit the college holdings, both in and out of the city of Bologna. The scholars must leave after seven or eight years of residence, but "the men who brought particular distinction to the college by being elected to a regular lectureship," either ordinary or extraordinary, were entitled to remain in the college even after they had taken their degree.69 Four chaplains also resided at the college and received their full share of the provisions allowed scholars, but they were not considered members of the corporation and took no part in the deliberations of the chapter. A manager, a steward and his assistants, a cook and his assistant, a librarian, a nonresident doctor, five or more servants and occasional domestic help, such as nurses in case of illness, completed the personnel of the college. All were placed under the direct supervision of the rector, who alone was granted the power to inflict punishment. The main difference between the organization of the student university and that of the college was the fact that no member of the college nor the corporation as a whole, even if unanimous, had the right to introduce new legislation or to make exceptions to the rules. They could petition for a reform of the statutes and appeal to the Pope or to the Cardinal Protector for interpretation or revision of single statutes, but not a word of the original constitution could be altered, omitted, or added,

except by order and with the sanction of the Pope upon the recommendation of the Cardinal Protector. Upon admission to the college, each member of the corporation and of the staff was required to swear absolute obedience to the statutes and to promise that he would not in any way seek or countenance any alteration to them. Perjury was a mortal sin and those guilty of it were subjected to public "infamy" and to other severe penalties. Thus, while in normal circumstances power remained in the hands of the majority of the corporation and of its representatives, the rector and councilors, abuse of this power was guarded against by means of frequent inspection, by the right of appeal, and by the oath of absolute obedience to the statutes sworn by every one in the college. Outside persons connected with the college, such as members of the Order of Preachers admitted to lecture on theology, were required to take the oath to observe the statutes of the college, as well as those of the university." The statutes legislate on the obligations and on the rights of the scholars. Their cumulative effect is to provide a vivid picture of the daily life of the students, of the great responsibilities placed upon them by their position as coheirs of the Cardinal, of the large part they played in running the institution, and at the same time of the strict discipline to which they were subjected. Every detail of their allowance in food and clothing, of the money given to them for various necessary expenses, was specified; definite penalties were provided for each and every offence; explicit directions were given for the care of college property, for the accounts that must be kept by all persons who handled college money, and for dealing with problems arising out of the increase or decrease of revenue. Nevertheless, the main purpose of the college is never lost sight of in the statutes. T h e Cardinal intended "to obviate, by the setting up of this house, the ignorance of the Spaniards

32

T H E SPANISH C O L L E G E AT BOLOGNA

among whom the knowledge of letters and the number of trained men have been much reduced because of the crises of wars and innumerable disasters which befell this province in his own time."" The college was to provide for young men so that they might become useful citizens of Spain or servants of the Church and to enable them to acquire the necessary degrees in spite of poverty. The executors kept this in mind throughout. The young Spaniards must be tested upon arrival to ensure their being sufficiently well grounded to gain profit from the teaching of the Bologna doctors. Careful and generous directions are given on how to deal with youngsters sent from Spain inadequately prepared, who should not pass the entrance examination or in other ways not qualify for admission. Once admitted, the students had to be enrolled in the faculty to which they had been sent, and they could neither transfer to nor attend lectures in another, except as specified in the statutes. Apart from the lectures on theology mentioned above, teaching was not available at the college, but provisions are made in the statutes to have practice teaching in the form of lectures given by scholars on subjects propounded by the rector and 'repetitions' or practical exercises in which the morning lectures were elucidated. The students were also to be given the opportunity to lecture in order to fulfill the requirements of the studium. We have seen that the Cardinal willed his books to the college (many of them are still found there). Because "books are the students' most precious treasures,'"2 careful directions are given in the statutes about their preservation and about the management of the library and the duties of the librarian. Not only is attention paid to the material well-being of the students and to their intellectual needs, but to their religious life and obligations as well. The college was also to serve as a perpetual monument to commemorate the dignity of the Cardinal's ecclesiastical career and to pay a debt of gratitude to the places from which he had

received benefices. The students therefore, were to come from those places where the Lord Cardinal held preferment at the time of his death or in earlier times;" and the bishops and chapters of these churches were given the right of presentation, as were representatives of the founder's family. Special articles deal with the reverence due to the blood of the noble house of Albornoz and with the privileges which members of the Cardinal's family and their descendants were, in perpetuity, to enjoy in the college whenever they came to Bologna. In establishing the college, the Cardinal's deep concern had been the salvation of his soul, which he hoped this meritorious act of charity might help him to achieve. Like all founders of similar institutions at that time, he meant to secure in perpetuity the intercession of all members of the college on behalf of his soul. In addition to the two masses that were to be said daily in the college chapel, masses and memorial services are prescribed in the statutes for the Cardinal and his kin. Particular attention was also paid to the spiritual welfare of the scholars, who must attend at least one of the daily masses and were required to confess at least four times a year. In view of the total loss of all copies of the original version of the statutes and the preservation of the first revision in one extant manuscript only and one incunabulum, it is interesting to note the careful statutory measures taken for their safe keeping by the executors. Six copies of the 1377 revision were to be made, one copy to be kept by the rector and one, bound like a book, to be chained in the college library along with other books and copies of important documents." Each councilor was to own a copy, and the sixth was to be put away in the common chest, which could only be opened by means of five different keys and in which were also preserved authentic copies of the legal rights and other documents. The original was presumably to be locked up with the originals of all legal instruments of the college "in a place reserved for this purpose

34

THE S P A N I S H COLLEGE AT BOLOGNA

in the wall of the sacristy, which shall never be opened without great and serious need."" Directions were given for the copying of documents from these originals if authentic copies of them had been lost. Before they could be formally admitted to the college, scholars had to be familiar with the text of the statutes and to take an oath of unconditional obedience to them. In addition, the statutes were read out loud, word for word, three times a year in the presence of the whole college corporation and of the chaplains. The laws and regulations which bind men who live in common must of necessity show marked similarities. This is particularly true of documents such as college constitutions, since the medieval ecclesiastics, jurists, and notaries who framed them were trained in canon and Roman law and were familiar with older texts of the same nature. They had studied the technical rules of the dictamen, the art of composition, which taught them the language and the formulae used in the drawing up of constitutions. Most statutes, therefore, are somewhat alike in their phraseology, in their use of certain prescribed formulae characteristic of the style of legal and notarial documents, whether they be made by legislative authorities for cities or communes, by guilds or corporations for their members, or by founders of colleges for the conduct of scholars. It is interesting, nevertheless, to compare the statutes of other similar institutions with those of the Spanish College. Many of the rules common to all are clearly derived from the disciplinary laws of the medieval monasteries. Others have their origin in articles of civil law. Though it is not always easy to determine the relation of one set of statutes to another, we know that a number of colleges and universities borrowed much from the constitution of the Spanish College. In the statutes of the Spanish College itself, we find appeals to precedents set in the constitutions of colleges at Paris, Toulouse, Osma, and Perugia. They seem to me, however, to have been

especially influenced by those of the College of Saint-Martial, founded in Toulouse by Pope Innocent VI in September, 1359. This foundation provided housing, board and clothing, and other necessities for four priests and twenty poor scholars, ten of whom were to study canon law and ten civil law. While there are many differences, and the statutes of Saint-Martial are extremely brief, whereas those of the Spanish College are most detailed, the provisions and general tenor are so similar as to indicate a direct connection. This may be shown by the following quotations: C O L L E G E OF

Cardinal Albornoz had studied at Toulouse, where he had received the degree of doctor of law. He would presumably be interested in a new college planned there by the Pope to provide for twenty poor students to study law. Moreover, he was intimately connected with Pope Innocent VI. While this Pope was ruling the Church from Avignon (1352-1362), the Cardinal was fighting to restore the Papal State (1353-1363). The two men were in constant contact. They may well have discussed the idea of founding colleges and the best constitutions to devise for them. Thus, the similarity between the two sets of statutes would tend to strengthen the possibility that Cardinal Albornoz at least inspired, if he did no write, the foundation charter of the college he established at Bologna. Interesting parallels are also found in the statutes of the college of Saint-Ruf, founded in Montpellier by Anglicus Grimoard in October 1364. This cardinal is mentioned in statute 59 of the Spanish college as protector of the college "for as long as he shall be active among men". Among the most striking similarities between the statutes of the two colleges the following should be mentioned :

These statutes of the College of Saint-Ruf were copied and published in the cardinal's palace in Bologna on April 13, 1368 and Petrus Alfonso de Toledo, abbas secularis Vallisoleti, one of the three men who drafted the original Statutes of the Spanish College, was among the witnesses. The close verbal similarities between the two documents indicate either that Anglicus was influenced by the contemporary early statutes of the Spanish college, or that the men in charge of the 1375 revision of the statutes of the Spanish college were influenced by those of the college of Saint-Ruf. But among the fourteenth-century constitutions, the one which most closely resembles that of the Spanish College is the constitution of the Gregorian College, founded in 1372 by Pope Gregory X I . " The similarities between the two sets of statutes are too numerous to be due to commpn models, so close in fact as to indicate direct copy of the one by the other. If, as was suggested earlier, the text of the 1375-1377 statutes of the Spanish College is substantially that of the earliest version, the fact that the Pope's statutes resemble it so closely indicates that he had it before him and made full use of it when he drafted his own. We know that the Pope was interested in the Spanish College and familiar with its statutes, for

40

THE S P A N I S H COLLEGE AT BOLOGNA

he not only ordered a visitation of the college in 1373 and shortly thereafter a revision of its constitution, but he regularly extended to it the privileges which he granted to his own newly founded college.™ When the Pope requested Pedro of Cuenca to reform the Spanish College, he may well have made available to him the foundation charter of the Gregorian College. With its aid, Pedro may have improved upon the original statutes of the Spanish College. If this reconstruction of what happened is correct, both the Gregorian foundation charter and Pedro's revision of the constitution of the Spanish College were largely based upon the original 1369 statutes of this college. When a few years after the foundation of Pope Gregory's college Pedro reformed the statutes of the Spanish College, he made some use in his revision of the Pope's statutes for the Gregorian College.'9 In the absence of the 1369 statutes of the Spanish College, however, this must remain an hypothesis. Many of the parallel passages will be quoted in the notes to the Latin text of the statutes printed in this book. The statutes were probably available to the patron churches, since, in the revised version, the executors decreed that, in order to avoid misunderstandings, a formal statement should be appended to the constitution which should specify all the requirements that must be met by the scholars before admission, what they must be provided with, and what the college would supply. This statement, appended to the statutes, should be sent to the chapters and churches which had a right of presentation.80 Another indication that the churches owned copies of the statutes is supplied by a series of documents dealing with the church in Lisbon. These documents are preserved in three manuscripts containing miscellaneous material apparently used in the teaching of the dictamen, the art of literary composition and of the technical art of the notary.81 The manuscripts of the late fifteenth or early sixteenth century appear to be independent copies of the original and contain collections

of form letters; state letters in the names of the cities of Bologna and Florence; letters written by Zambeccari, Coluccio Salutati, Petrus de Vineis, and others; formularies of supplicationes, or petitions to the Pope, designed as models of composition; and in addition documents which appear to constitute the dossier relating to a legal trial brought against the Spanish College by a Portuguese student presented to the college by the church in Lisbon. These documents, which I have edited and analyzed elsewhere,"2 include the verbatim quotation of four statutes and the summary of a fifth. They also include the consilia, or formal legal advice, of three outstanding Bolognese jurists, Antonio de Butrio, Bartholomeo de Saliceto, and Pietro de Ancarano, who, along with the Prior of S. Giovanni in Monte, had been requested to give their opinion on the validity of a decision by the Bishop of Bologna authorizing a moratorium on admissions to the Spanish College. The student Gomez, who had been presented in 1402 for admission by the church in Lisbon, had been refused admission on the ground that the penurious state of the college finances made his rejection nccessary. All four doctors of law considered this decision invalid because it was contrary to the statutes of the college, as well as to various decrees of civil and canon law which they quoted. Sentence was passed against the college, which was ordered to admit Gomez without delay. An appeal was made but the documents do not reveal the result.83 The statutes of the college are also mentioned among the supplicationes to the Pope, in another section of the same miscellaneous collection. The petition concerns the allegedly illegal action of the college rector, who is said to have substituted his own candidate for the councilor legally elected by the college chapter according to the rules set in the constitution. The statute concerning the election of councilors by the

42

THE S P A N I S H COLLEGE AT BOLOGNA

majority of the members of the college is commented on, as well as the form of the election prescribed by the statutes. The Pope is humbly requested to nullify the rector's action and to reinstate the councilor legally elected by the college. The fact that an alternative ending is suggested for the petition indicates that, while it is based on fact, it is meant to serve as a model for the proper formulation of petitions dealing with this kind of abuse. Its text will be found in Appendix V. T h e constitution of the college was frequently revised. In the second year of his rule, Pope Martin V (1417-1431) requested Cardinal Alfonso Carillo, nephew of Cardinal Albornoz, to visit the Spanish College, and to make any necessary changes in the statutes.84 New statutes were promulgated in 1459. A petition from the Cardinal Bishop of Sabina, the rector, and the scholars, dated October 9, 1483, addressed to Pope Innocent V I I I requesting him to authorize the reform of some of the statutes, is found in the college archives, along with Pope Alexander's approval of a revision of the constitution, dated October 16, 1488. A contemporary manuscript of it is found at the University of Madrid." 5 One set of statutes, compiled by Bernardino Carvajal and confirmed by Pope Alexander V I (1492-1503), is listed in the catalogue of the college library but is no longer found there.86 A fragmentary set of fifteenth-century statutes, in manuscript form, is also preserved at the college.87 Texts of later revisions are found in the archives.88 They show that at the end of the fifteenth century an attempt was made to recast the constitution into a more orderly and systematic whole by dividing it into five sections, or distinctiones. Statutes dealing with related topics that before had often been separated were now gathered together under one heading. Repetitions were omitted, doubtful points clarified, and a more logical plan served to tighten the organization. Alterations and additions were made under

INTRODUCTION

43

Popes Julius II (1503-1513) and Leo X (1513-1521). One set was compiled in 1522 by Just de Rubiera. In June, 1536, Pope Paul III ordered a revision, and the statutes were recast by Ginesius Sepulveda, as appears from a note in the copy of his text found in the college." The letter in which the Cardinal Protector of the college, Franciscus, of the title of Santa Croce in Jerusalem, gives his approval of the new constitution (April 10, 1538) contains a brief history of the statutes up to that date.90 An edition, printed in Bologna in 1558 by Antonius Giaccarellus and Peregrinus Bonardus, is found in many libraries, including that of the Spanish College. At the end of the fifth distinctio is appended a list of the members of the college corporation for that year. These statutes were somewhat enlarged and modified in 1560 and approved by the Visitator, Giovanni de Capeda. A manuscript of this revision is found in the library of the University of Pavia.01 It was printed, under the title Statuta quae manuscripta nuncupari solebant, by Johannes Rossius at Bologna in March, 1590. The Gordan Collection in New York City contains a composite volume that includes the statutes of 1558 printed by Giaccarellus and Bonardus, as well as the revision printed by Rossius. Further modifications were introduced during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, and various editions were published.92 One of these was printed by Benazzi in 1648.93 It is quoted as authoritative by Augusto Aglebert, who compiled a brief history of the college in 1881. He wrote this to support the contention of the authorities of Bologna that the Spanish College should maintain Italian students, since it did not have its full complement of Spanish nationals.94 In all these later editions, some changes were made and an effort to achieve precision and clarity by means of formal alterations in the phraseology and grammatical constructions is evident.

44

THE S P A N I S H C O L L E G E AT BOLOGNA

The most recent edition of the statutes was printed at Bologna in 1861, but a number of changes have been made since then as a consequence of shifts in the political and economic circumstances of Italy and Spain, which have affected the situation of the college. The most important of these is the article of 1919 which freed the college from all official super. . 95 vision. EDITION AND

TRANSLATION

When the original version of the statutes was revised in 1377, six copies of the constitution were made."' No trace has been found of any of these. The Latin text printed in the present edition is based primarily on a fifteenth-century manuscript copy of these statutes, discovered in 1889 by Hastings Rashdall in the Phillipps Library at Cheltenham (MS 5383)," which is now MS 93 in the collection of Mr. and Mrs. John D. Gordan in New York City and will be referred to as G. This manuscript is a quarto containing thirty-three leaves (277 by 195 mm.), bound in early seventeenth-century red morocco, gilt, and adorned with the arms of Cardinal Albornoz, which became the college arms. Inside is the bookplate of Frederick, fifth Earl of Guilford. The thirty-one numbered leaves contain the text of sixty-one statutes, two additional articles written in the original hand, and two later additions in a smaller hand. A large cross standing on a pyramidal base is rather crudely drawn on the flyleaf. Three unnumbered leaves are left blank at the end, except for a few lines written at random on them. There are forty-eight lines to a page. The initial letters of the sixty-one statutes and of the two additional articles copied in the original hand are ornately drawn in red and blue ink. The letter of commissary begins with a very large and elaborate P, illuminated with minute care. The rubricator appears to have

INTRODUCTION

45

inserted the titles of the statutes, as well as the initial letters, after the text had been copied.™ The text is copied in a large, clear Gothic hand. The same version of the 1377 statutes is found, with slight variants, in a unique incunabulum in the British Museum, anonymously printed in Bologna on January 28, 1485.°* On the basis of the type, which is identical with that used by Henricus de Haarlem (in partnership with Johannes de Nordlingen) at Venice, it is attributed to this printer in the British Museum catalogue.100 It will be referred to as H. This incunabulum is a folio which contains thirty leaves (233 by 145 mm.). Spaces for illuminated initial letters have been left blank at the beginning of each statute, and the second letter of the initial word is printed as a capital. G and H have the same incipit, followed in both by a letter of commissary reciting a papal bull dated November 24, 1377, a proemium, sixty-one statutes, the notarial attestation, list of witnesses, notary's list of corrections and alterations, and two additional statutes. The first of these, dated November 17, 1436, decrees that the Rectors of the Faculties of Law, Arts and Medicine shall have precedence and hold the first rank and that in all gatherings the Rector of the Spanish College shall always hold the second, immediately after them. The second additional statute is of an earlier date (the last day of December, 1423); it establishes anniversary services on behalf of the soul of Cardinal Petrus de Frias, in grateful memory of his generosity to the college which he rescued from pressing financial difficulties.101 G contains two additions not found in H, in a different hand from that of the statutes, a much smaller and somewhat crabbed cursive. The first is a declaration by Alvarus de Vargas that the first additional statute beginning "Daniel, etc.," which regulates precedence, was inserted by him into the set ol

statutes promulgated in 1459. The second addendum strictly forbids the admission of monks and men in religious orders as Chaplains of the college. H, on the other hand, contains two additions not found in G. The first is a bull of Sixtus IV, dated October 1, 1474, which deals with the right of patronage and the admission of students. The second is a note regarding the fee to be paid the Visitators and is dated September 16, 1462. This is signed "Ludovicus Rector Collegii Hispanorum." The colophon of H, printed between the two additional statutes found in both G and H and the two additions not found in G, is as follows: "Impressa fuerunt hec statuta Bononie anno M C C C C L X X X V , die X X V I I I ianuarii, Rectore dicti Collegii magnifico ac nobili uiro Domino Iacobe Molon102 medico excellentissimo ex Carignea Cesaragustana diocesis oriundo. Laus Deo semper." The common model of G and H clearly ended at this point, after the 1423 and 1436 additions found in both. While H was printed in 1485, G was presumably copied earlier, between 1436 (the date of the latest addition to the 1377 statutes copied by the same hand as the main body of the statutes) and 1459, when the last article was inserted by a slightly later hand. An alphabetical index follows in H but not in G and ends with the statement: " E t sic habemus finem tabule huius operis Deo fauente." Extracts from the 1377 text of the statutes are found in three manuscripts, which will be referred to as Ha, N, and B. These have preserved the documents connected with the legal case of Gomez versus the Spanish College in 1403, which has been discussed above.103 Statutes 4, 41, 58, and part of 39 are there quoted verbatim. The text is essentially that of G and H, and the few variants are recorded in the apparatus criticus. In addition, the text of the bull recited in the letter of Pedro of Cuenca, which prefaces the revision of the statutes printed

below, is found in the Vatican registers, with minor variants which are also recorded in the apparatus criticus.™ G and H derive from the same source and are in almost complete agreement. G has been corrected: 116.14 quam> per quam; 136.8 pro> Petro; 138.9 sic> si; 166.4muto> mutuo; etc. Missing words are supplied in the margins : 170.21 domini, which is omitted in H; 254.24 expedire, also omitted in H, etc. That G and H were transcribed from a common model is shown by the number of errors which they share; 122.26 subscribebat; 132.19 esperie a sperie ultra (experie siue hesperie a spere ultra H); the confusion in the title of Statute 20, etc. But they appear to have been transcribed independently at different dates, probably not from the original of the 1377 version of the constitution but from a copy of i t : 120.25 correpta G, correcta H; 120.23 prudentiam G, prouidentiam H; 148.25 disscucione G, dillatione H; 154.1 obtinencium G, obuenientium H; 234.2 nisi eas G, ubi eas H; 324.3 qui . . . dicunt G, faciendum uel dicentium H, etc. Their independence from each other is also indicated by omissions: 206.14 per . . . campanelle om. G; 260.7 quod expedita om. G; 266.12 Post illos Aragonum om. G; 286.21 uel . . . . sacros om. H; 296.22 si uero . . . . puniatur om. H; 352.9 ecclesiis . . . . emendatum om. G; etc. It will be noted that the differences in the texts preserved in the three manuscripts that contain extracts from the statutes (Ha, N, B) are insignificant and mainly a matter of form and spelling. The text preserved in our manuscripts of the statutes are so nearly contemporary with the original version that they doubtless represent it faithfully. They show the normal medieval deviations from classical usage characteristic of legal texts and documents composed in the fourteenth century. The sentences are lengthy, intricate, ungainly, occasionally contain ungrammatical constructions, and are often difficult to construe. The use of tenses and moods of verbs is consistent with medieval usage. The tendency to multiply synonyms and to

48

THE S P A N I S H COLLEGE AT BOLOGNA

heap up legal or quasi legal formulae is characteristic of most mediaeval statutes. Apart from careless scribal errors (frabricari, fatri, blibliam, sopleniter, libereriam, euiantes, etc.), the scribe of G and the printer of H make the usual mistakes found in most mediaeval manuscripts. They are inconsistent in the matter of assimilation; in their use of h (hedificia, ispania, substrantur, honeramus, epischopi, hostium). They confuse i and y (yspania, ydoney, dyachono, dyaboli); e and i (ligitime, nullatinus, sepiliri, inquirire, preuilegiis, femeninam, etc.); u and o (discombentes). They write one vowel instead of two (equs, aliqum, pecunis, necessaris); two consonants instead of one or one instead of two (appostolice, disscucione, prefferendus, primittiuis, ellecto, colegium, misionem, admiti, suficienter, supleat, comunem, etc.). They use ct instead of t or tt (micterentur, execuctioni, peticta, perpectuo, auctenticus); s for c or c for s (dicensio, ascencionis, conscilium, circumscisionis); t for d or d for t (aput, aliquit, set, quidquit, sicud). An interesting Spanish misspelling is gabeat for habeat (344.10 H), and exidii for Egidii (table of contents, H). In order to reproduce the appearance and to preserve the flavor of this fourteenth-century document, the spellings of G have been kept throughout, except when they might confuse the reader or when they are obvious scribal errors, in which case they are recorded in the apparatus criticus. H often differs in minor ways from G in matters of spelling. It usually writes ti where G has ci (amicitia, etc.), hispania where G has yspania, and consiliarii where G has consciliarii. But H commits gross errors, many of them simply typographical. Letters are turned upside down (agenpis for agendis, idse for ipse), misplaced (snoum for sonum, ccnam for cenam), or omitted (geimus); m takes the place of ni or vice versa (ledesnia for ledesma, galnieros for galmeros). T h e most frequent error in H is the use of u for n or vice versa (aliqnis, noluntate, domiui,

deliqueutem, tuuc, sangninis, nolumine, nendere, etc.). From the beginning of H through statute 37, the word iconomus (oeconomus) is spelt ycononius, after which the correct form is used. The statutes, with rare exceptions, are numbered, H writing out the numbers, as I have, or Roman numerals, G using Arabic. Otherwise the critical edition printed in the present volume is based primarily on G. Punctuation and capitalization are too inconsistent in both G and H to warrant reproduction in this edition and have been normalized. G has never been edited.105 The text of H has been published in a recent volume of the Spanish journal Hispania Sacra™ This edition is marred throughout by faulty readings, lack of method and carelessness. The author appears to have at first intended to print a diplomatic edition and therefore follows the incunabulum blindly in a series of passages in which it transmits a faulty text, sometimes in a Latin which is neither classical nor medieval and often meaningless: 122.8 redigimus, 132.19 a spere ultra, 154.18 volumus, 156.1 nolumus, 198.22 copillari, 200.14 canapanarium, 200.24 firmam, 220.8 lectisterio, 232.14 latrenia, 240.24 tale, 256.11 caueat, 260.7 quancitius, 260.13 memoralibus, 270.26 naturali, 274.6 punitionem, 278.1 minus, 278.9 sollicitudo, 304.24 inflingunt, 312.1 adueniat, 318.22 viderit, 320.6 supradicti predicti, 328.18 defensiva, 348.1 teneantur, 354.14 latis, 356.2 ymbacili, 356.4 exhariunt, etc. Though in a few passages the author suggests corrections, in numerous others he alters the text of the original without indicating in any way, either in footnotes or apparatus criticus, that he is doing so: 118.17 vitatis, 120.11 veritatem, 132.8 salutis, 138.7 immuniatibus, 142.12 pinguit et habundaverit, 142.23 evenerit, 150.11 et om, 150.12 ut] tamen, 158.11 quacumque, 184.10 assignavit, 190.2 examinare, 192.6 ration a l e s , 192.21 reperiatur, 192.22 puniatur, 196.4 assignavit,

Some of these may be typographical errors, as the following must be: 158.9 cuiuslibet et, 190.4 nitivitatis, 196.9 expendiens, 196.16 expendiendorum, 202.10 antiquor, 240.20 prout ut, 298.11 occupatibur, 324.20 impari. In addition, certain readings are corrected in one passage and kept in the other: 254.5 visitaturum (cf. 274.19 visitatum), 148.4, 8 casu] causa, (cf. 148.13 casu),200.14 canapanarium (cf. 200.22 canaparium), etc. In several cases the abbreviations have been misinterpreted : 116.7 quae] qui, 122.26 papali] populi, 164.5 ne] non, 290.6 qua] quam, 312.16 nunciare] nunciari, 354.26 ambitu] habitu. The translation of the text here printed on the basis of G and H is literal; the notes to it have been kept to a minimum. Many of the definitions of terms connected with the medieval curriculum and the examinations at the University of Bologna are based on Rashdall's study of the medieval universities.

Notes

1. The biography written by Juan Gines Sepulveda, De vita et rebus gestis Aegidii Albornotii (Bologna, 1521), is more a panegyric than a historical document. I shall quote from the edition of Sepulveda's collected works published in Madrid in 1780, which contains this biography of the cardinal and, among other texts, the Historia de bello administrate) in Italia Domini Aegidii Albornotii, the cardinal's testament, and Sepulveda's description of the college, Brevis Bononiensis Collegii Hispanorum descriptio. Details about the cardinal's life and campaigns will be found, along with further bibliography, in the following: H. J.

Grcgorovius, History of the City of Rome in the Middle Ages, English tr. (London, 1898), V I , 428f. : "A countless multitude received the Holy Father on the shore. Nobles from the Romagna, Spoleto, and the March, envoys from Orvieto, Pisa and Florence, from Siena, Perugia and Viterbo, counts, barons, bishops, and abbots from far and near, reverently knelt on the shore of the State of the Church, again trodden by a pope for the first time for more than sixty years. A staircase covered with hangings had been erected in the sea and richly ornamented tents along the beach. As he stepped ashore, U r b a n .V. was greeted by the man without whom he would never have ventured on the voyage; for Albornoz was the chief instrument in bringing the Papacy from Avignon back to Italy. As the great vanquisher of tyrants, who, after tedious wars, had subjugated Rome, Tuscany and Spoleto, Umbria, the Marches, the Romagna to the sacred chair, who had but just also recovered Assisi for the Church, now knelt before Urban, an aged world-weary man, he seemed to embody the State of the Church which rendered homage to its master." 4. T h e day of the Cardinal's death has been variously given as August 14, 22, 23, and 24. T h a t the correct date is August 23 is established by an autograph statement written by the Cardinal's nephew in his own copy of Gratian, in the Capitular library at Toledo, a copy of which is found in the college archives, Cod. Alb., V I I I , 13: "eodem anno, videlicet M C C C L X V I I et X X I I I die mensis Augusti, in die lunae, vigilia Sancti Bartholomei apostoli, IV hora noctis, dominus meus d. Sabinensis migravit ad dominum, in bastita Belrepausi, prope Viterbium, cum iam assignasset d. nostro D. Urbano, divina provvidentia Pape V omnes terras ecclesiae quas habebat."

This is supported by the evidence of the statutes printed below. Stat. 11 : "in uesperis X X I I I die mensis augusti qua bone memorie dominus Sabinensis fuit uiam uniuerse carnis ingressus . . . ."; cf C. Ghirardacci, Historia di Bologna, (Bologna, 1669), I I , 292: " E però giunta I'hora del premio della sua longa fatica alii 14. d'Agosto in Sabbato, all' hora del Vespro, mori." (Also found in Muratori, Rerum Ital. Script., X X X I I I . ) 5. In his testament (see n. 10 below) the cardinal expresses his desire that his body be temporarily buried in the church of San Francesco at Assisi if he should die in Italy and that it be removed to the chapel of S. Ildefonso in the cathedral of Toledo whenever the political situation in Spain should permit this (quandocumque contigerit cessare indignationem istius vel alterius Regis Castellae contra illos de genere meo). O n October 13, 1371, Pope Gregory X I requested the chapter of the cathedral at Toledo to have the building of the chapel of S. Ildefonso completed as soon as possible so that arrangements could be m a d e for the translation of the Cardinal's remains from Assisi to Toledo. Reg. Vat. 263, fol. 199 b : " C u m bone memorie Egidius Episcopus Sabinensis qui Romane ecclesie honorabile membrum fuit et in partibus Italie legacionis officium per sedem apostolicam sibi commissum tarn laudabiliter q u a m prudenter diu gessit, in capella Sancti Ilefonsi in ecclesia Tholetan. consistente elegerit sepeliri.

adventum subséquente, obiit in Viterbio prefatus dominus Egidius Alvari, episcopus Sabinensis cardinalis, vir utique vite laudabilis, ymo etiam indelebilis in eternum. Fuit namque legatus in dictis partibus continue fere per quatuordecim annos. Et licet a principio reperierit civitates, loca, castra et terras que ad dominium, jus et proprietatem Romane Ecclesie spectabant, sub manibus consistere tirannorum, castris Montiflasconis et de Montefalco dumtaxat exceptis, tamen divino fretus auxilio sic operatus est, nunc per tractatus amicabiles, nunc vero per insultus hostiles, quod fere omnia ad obedientiam dicte Ecclesie suo tempore suoque ministerio sunt reducta. In quibus etiam castra, rochas et alias munitiones utplurimum aut noviter fecit edificari, aut que hactenus fuerant, renovari. . . . Fuit insuper homo admodum virtuosus, litterarum scientia preditus, in agibilibus multum circumspectus, corde magnanimus, corpore laboriosus, ac in factis armorum, non obmissa pontificali decentia, valde edoctus et expertus; scivitque in omnibus sic et taliter se gerere quod in tota Ytalia vivens amabatur aut saltim timebatur. Ipse vero de bonis a Deo sibi datis constituit, dotavit et fundavit Bononie unum solempne collegium pro pauperibus scolaribus regionis sue. Plura alia bona fecit pro salute anime sue. Eiusque obitus fuit multum toti Ecclesie dampnosus, et prefato Urbano pape displicibilis et dolorosus, presertim in sui dicti adventus principio, cum speraret in suis agendis per eum utplurimum dirigi et juvari." His greatness has been recognized by modern historians. A de Boiiard, Le Régime politique et les Institutions de Rome au Moyen Age (1252-1347), (Paris, 1920), p.75 : ". . . le type accompli de ces restaurateurs du pouvoir temporel, le fameux cardinal Gilles Albornoz, qui sut, en l'espace de quelques années, effacer les ravages que cinquante ans d'absence de la Papauté avaient causés aux domaines de l'Eglise. . . ."

Cf. also Cambridge Medieval History, V I I (Cambridge, 1932), passim. 9. Pope Innocent's letter is inserted in the preamble of the Cardinal's testament (see n. 10). It is also found in a composite volume at the University of Padua which contains both manuscript and printed material, M S Ticinese 377, from which the following quotation is taken: Innocentius Episcopus, Servus servorum Dei, Venerabili fratri Aegidio Episcopo Sabinensi, Apostolicae sedis legato salutem, et Apostolicam Benedictionem.

Among his numerous bequests were various endowments for works of charity and religion, provisions for the dowries of his nieces and of a hundred girls in the diocese of Toledo and Cuenca, and many other provisions. Fifty thousand masses to be said on behalf of his soul were provided for. He names the college his residuary legatee and puts Fernando Alvari and Alfonso Fernandi in charge of all the business connected with its establishment : "Item volo et ordino quod supradicti Fernandus Alvari, Abbas Vallisoleti, et Alphonsus Fernandi Camerarius singulariter habeant curam et administrationem construendi domum praedictam seu collegium, et capellam, et emendi possessiones, et redditus pro victu dictorum viginti quatuor scholarium, et duorum Capellanorum, et ipsis mando, ac etiam rogo, quantum possum, quod post mortem meam remaneant Bononiae ad minus per duos continuos annos, ad complendum praedicta, et lego eis pro expensis et labore, ultra praedicta, cuilibet sexcentos florenos." 11.

It may be interesting to compare with the cardinal's dispositions for the college the description of it written by Sepulveda in the sixteenth century, op. cit. (n. 1), IV, 78: "A quibus in ea parte urbis conditae sunt [aedes collegii], quae meridiei ac occidentis medium spectat, non longe a porta, quam Aegidius mutato vocabulo Caesaraugustae a nomine amatae urbis appellavit, cum prius Vilianae diceretur, et earn viam, quae a collegio pertinet ad hanc portam, quadrato lapide straverat, qui post inde translatus est ad Rheni urbem interfluentis alveum muniendum, consulto senatus Bononiensis : qui pro eo lapide lateribus coctis earn viam stravit, professus, ut accepimus, publica fide eamdem perpetuo sternendo reficere. Sed in his aedibus aedificandis, qui negotium susceperant, non tam decoris, quam firmitatis videntur habuisse rationem. Constant enim parietes omnes coctis lateribus qui ut in altitudinem haud admodum sublimes exsurgunt, sic in latitudinem patent latissime. . . ." 26. The variety of names under which the college was known has created some confusion. Savigny, for instance, mentions the college twice, but under different names, without realizing that he is dealing with one foundation. See Rashdall op. cit. (n. 14) I 199 n. 1. 27. Numerous deeds of sale are found both in the college archives and in the State Archives in Bologna, (Demaniale, Busta 1 /7870 and 3/7872). In November, 1364, a house is bought "iuxta aliam D. N. Egidii domum", and several others near Santa Maria delle Muratelle and S. Cristoforo di Saragozza. On July 3, 1368, another is bought "iuxta nouum D. N. Egidii palatium seu collegium." These sales continue at a rapid rate until 1371. Many of the documents are reproduced in G. Guidicini, op. cit. (n. 20), vol. V. This also contains a description of the site of the college, its parish, the streets which border it, etc. 28. G. Guidicini, op. cit. (n. 20), p. 26, dated March 21, 1365: "Fu decretato dal Cardinale Andruino Legato [Androin de la Roche, Abbot

Cristoforo di Saragozza, per poter meglio costruire la fabbrica del collegio, e renderla isolata." A copy of the legate's decree is found in the college archives. 29. F.

Zucchini. Edificii di Bologna, Repertorio bibliografico e iconografico (Rome, 1931). Matteo had been entrusted with the building of the Rocca of Spoleto in 1362: "De fidei legalitatis ac tue circumspectionis industria gerentes in domino fidutiam pleniorem ac sperantes quod ea que tibi duxerimus commictenda exequeris fideliter et prudenter, te officialem at superstantem fabriche rocche montis civitatis Spoletane, pro tribus mensibus futuris, in Kalendis mensis martii proxime preteriti inchoatis, cum salario quinquaginta florenorum auri, ad cuius offitii exercitium unum notarium, unum famulum et unum equum habere debeas . . . ."

See the various documents quoted by Filippini in the first article mentioned in note 29, pp. 91-93. Among others he gives the text of the contract between the executors and the master masons who were to erect the college buildings and the chapel; this is detailed and includes the most precise specifications. See also Guidicini, op. cit. (n. 20), for an estimate of the cost of the building. 32. Cod. Alb. IX, 3 (copy in IX, 4): "quia vos domini reverendi patres Brixien. et Firmanen.

34. Cocl. Alb. IX, 12. A sum of fifty gold florins was paid for his expenses. 35. Cod. Alb., I X contains records of various actions taken by the cxecutors in accordance with the Cardinal's testament. IX, 7 is a statement of the disbursements made by Alfonso Fernandi in 1367 and 1368 ir. settlement of certain legacies. IX, 14ff. record payments m a d e to the heirs and to various persons named in the will, among them the Franciscans at Assisi. Among the most interesting are I X , 15, which deals with arrangements made to free from captivity Alvarus Garsiae, brother of the Cardinal ("ad partes ultramarinas ad redimendum de captiuitate magnificum dom. Aluarum Garsie de Albernotio, eius fratrem carnalem, qui per nonnullos Anglicos captiuus detinebatur . . . .") and IX, 21, in which the sum of seven thousand ducats (de cambio septem millium ducatorum) is set aside for the ransom. O t h e r documents are preserved in the State Archives of Bologna, among them Demaniale, Busta 3/7872, no. 9 3 : Instrumenta de rebus a D.

T h e executors declare that they are acting in accordance with the Cardinal's will, "habentes plenam et liberam potestatem . . . . declarandi ultimam Cardinalis Egidii uoluntatem." Dated May 12, 1368: " Q u e fuerunt acta in ciuitate Bononie in palacio habitacionis Reuerendissimi in Christo patris et domini domini Anglici miseratione diuina Episcopi Albanensis T e r r a r u m ecclesie Vicarii generalis." 37. A bull of September 30, 1368, for instance, orders prompt collection of all the debts still to be paid into the Cardinal's estate. It is directed to "Venerabilibus fratribus Anglico Albanensi et Guillelmo Sabinensi episcopis ac dilecto filio Petro S. Marie noue diacono cardinali, aliisque executoribus testamenti." They are urged to proceed with speed against the defaulters, "simpliciter et de plano sine strepitu et figura iudicii." Cod. Alb., IX, 8. Cf. also Reg. Avin. 169 f. 536 b (Sept. 25, 1369). 38. Note the confusion about the date of the Cardinal's death; cf. n. 4 above. 39.

Watt, "University Clerks and Rolls of Petitions for Benefices," Speculum, 34 (1959), 213229. Watt notes (p. 215) that the printed source collections of the Italian universities do not contain any traces of rolls of petitions for benefices. This petition from the Spanish College at Bologna is therefore of particular interest. 50.

servido de pauta mediata o immediatamente para los colegios fundados después en la Península. Consta en particular que Don Diego de Anaya, al regresar del concilio de Constanza, visitó el colegio de San Clemente para inspirarse en su legislación y tenor de vida al ordenar el régimen que había de imponer en el de San Bartolomé de Salamanca, cuya formalización estaba ultimando. Su lectura nos confirma también en la tesis acerca de la influencia decisiva y con frecuencia perniciosa, que ejerció la tradición boloñesa en la modelación pedagógica de la nuestras academias, según hemos expuesto recientemente con respecto a Salamánca." See my forthcoming article. 53. A college for thirty scholars known as the domus sapientie, or Sapienza, was founded in 1404 in Siena. Its constitution was modeled on that of the Spanish College. See Rashdall, op. cit. (n. 14), I I , 34. 54. Foundations at Valladolid, Alcalá, Seville, and Salamanca owe much to the Spanish College and its statutes. See Denifle, op. cit. (n. 18) I, 214f., 451, 647; Armstrong, op. cit. (n. 51) p. 276; Sepulveda, op. cit. (n. 1), IV, 82: "Et profecto si grati simus, nec invide merita libeat interpretan, quod tot collegia splendide ac magnifice in Hispania condita fuerint, in quibus studiosis scholasticis omnia ad praeclaram sapientiam gratis et abunde suppeditantur; Aegidii Albornotii beneficium videri possit: qui primus hoc collegium in florentissimo gymnasio condidit, cuius exemplo cetera in Hispania condita fuisse non potest dubitari.

Figueroa y Torres, Conde de Romanones, op. cit. (n. 1): "De él tomó norma don Santiago Anaya, arzobispo de Sevilla, quien después de conocer y admirar el Colegio y estudiar sus estatos, fundó el de San Bartolomé de Salamanca, y los cardenales Mendoza y Cisneros, siguiendo el mismo ejemplo, fundaron los de Valladolid y Alcalá, habiéndose debido también a colegiales de Bolonia las f u n d a ciones de los San Antonio, de Sigüenza, Jesús de Sevilla, y Fonseca, de Santiago."

See the preamble to the statutes printed below. In the introductory letter to the 1558 edition of the statutes, in which the early history of the statutes is summarized, he is erroneously called Petrus de Frias : ' . . . . et deinde anno scilicet M C C C L X X V I I à Petro de Frias Episcopo Conchensi, tunc Marchiae Anconitanae rectore generali recognita, et Apostolica felice recordationis Gregorii Papae X I authoritate confirmata, tum à nonnullis Reuerendiss.

There are many similarities between the statutes of the Spanish College and those of the College of Verdala, founded in Toulouse in 1337. For the text of the statutes of this college, see Fournier, vol. I, pp. 539ff. 77. Reg. Vat. 283, fols. 239 b -248 a ; Reg. Avin. 187, fols. 133-142b. These statutes, dated December, 1372, are published in Bullarium Romanum, IV (Turin, 1859), 543-560 and also in Chart. Bon., II, no. C C L X I X (606) and in Ghirardacci, op. cit. (n. 4), II, 308-21. Various documents dealing with the Collegio Gregoriano are published in Theiner, Cod. Dipl., II, 478 and in Chart. Bon. II, nos. CCLXIX (606) ff. For quotations from these statutes, see the footnotes to the Latin text, passim. I quote from the Bullarium. 78. Reg. Avin. 185, fol. 551 a : the Spanish College is granted permission to choose a priest to hear confessions and to give absolution in all but such cases as must be referred to the apostolic see; to conduct divine services with the doors closed, if and when interdict or excommunication is inflicted on Bologna, 587 b ; the privilege of a portable altar is conceded to the college, ibid.; the rector is to be excused from attendance at meetings of the university, except when his presence is specially requested "pro aliquo arduo negotio," 551 a ; no member of the college may be forced to serve as rector of the university, ibid. Copies of these privileges are found in the Privilegiorum volumen in the college archives. 79. One of the new statutes, statute 53, contains a description of the heating system in the kitchen of the Pope's college and a decree that, as soon as finances allow, this shall be copied in the Spanish House. 80.

(n. 52) p. 188, n. 4 : " E n la misma reforma hecha poco después de la impresión de estos estatutos, con autoridad apostólica (breve Cum sicut dilecti de 6 agosto de 1487), por el vicario del obispo de Bolonia juntamente con Alejandro de Longaris y el rector del colegio, Ignacio de (Hollantes, aunque se varió la forma de los anteriores, se mantuvo casi siempre su contenido, expresándolo de ordinario con las palabras del texto primitivo. De esta nueva redacción se ha conservado también al menos un ejemplar en el manuscrito 101 de la biblioteca de la Universidad Central, y su confrontación con los impresos en 1485 permite apreciar en detalle las modificaciones introducidas. . . . " 86. Catalogus, I I , fol. l l b contains the following statement: "aliqua statuta ab Alexandro V I confirmata, a Bernardino Carvagal redacta, quae hodie non inveniuntur." Lafiguera lists them under no. 9, adding: 'Quedam statuta originaba addita correcta et condita per D. Bernardinum de Carvagial Cardinalem S. Crucis in Hierusalem . . . . 1498." 87. Lafiguera lists them under no. 8 : "Quorundam antiquorum statutorum fragmenta in bastardello scripta et nondum proposita vel acceptata." 88. Dom Marcelino Martin de Castro has kindly given me the following list of manuscripts of the statutes found in the college archives: 1 5 3 6 : Statuta originaba redacta a Ginesio di Sepulveda ("subdelegatum Domini Francisci de Quiñones"); 1627, Dec. 1 7 : Statuta originaba ordinata per Dominum Hieronimum de Roig, per Urbanum V I I I confirmata; 1 6 4 4 : Statuta originalia ab Urbano P P V I I I confirmata, existente protectore collegii Card. Alfonso de la Cueva; 1644, Feb. 24, Estatutos en Españolo. 89. T h e eighteenth-century editor of Sepulveda's works (see n. 1 above) states that at the date of publication (1780) the statutes revised by Sepulveda in 1536 were still observed with but few changes. T h e college owns the following printed editions of the statutes: Statuta Collegii Hispanorum Bononiae, Bononiae, Antonius Giaccarellus et Peregrinus Bonardus socii excudebant M D L V I I I ; Statuta edita 25. Maii 1630, Bononiae 1630 apud d e m e n t e m Ferronium. In the Munici-

pal Library of Bologna there is a 1628 edition by the same printer as well as various later revisions and editions. Ferronius' edition, the text of which appears to have been compiled in 1578, contains additions dated 1561, 1564, 1570. In addition, the college owns revisions of 1644, 1726, 1751, 1861. 90. This is quoted in the preamble to the 1558 edition printed by Giaccarellus and Bonardus; this preamble ends with a list of the members of the college for the year 1538. 91. Biblioteca Universitaria, Manoscritti Ticinesi 377, sec. X V I . 92. T h a t of 1628, published at Bologna "typis Clementis Ferronii" is found in many libraries. 93. Alfonso, Cardinal de la Cueva, explains in a letter dated March 12, 1648, the reasons which had led to the revision printed by Benazzi: ". . . . D. Ioannem Ibanez de Madariaga Thesaurarium Canonicumque Vallisoletanum selegimus, quae omnia graviter, et cum fide praestitit cumque nobis e re non solum Collegii, sed etiam publica f u t u r u m videretur si non nulla ad meliorem opportunioremque formam pertinentia temporibusque (quibus semper serviendum est) maxime consentanea in melius immutarentur typisque publicis ederentur pro quorum omnium validitate accessit etiam confirmatio Apostolica fel. Recor. PP. Urbani Octavi ut in breve sub data 27 Februarii Anni 1644, ea tabulis hisce nostris commissa libenter transmitimus, nec non facultatem nobis benigne inpertitam a S.D.N. Innocentio PP. X. pro eligendis eiusdem Collegii Rectore, et Collegialibus, litteris Sanctitatis suae in forma brevis datis 26 Junii anni praeteriti 1646. quibus adiungi debent, eaque auctoritate, et virtute ipsius Brevis acta sunt." This letter is prefixed to the 1861 edition. Of these various editions, Armstrong says, op. cit. (n. 51) p.282: " T h e earliest statutes were modified by several of the Popes of the Renaissance: some of those m a d e in 1536 are still preserved, though the complete scheme f r o m which the following details have been extracted belongs to 1648, and was the work of the Protector, the Cardinal de la Cueva. In it, however, are imbedded a great portion of the earlier statutes, subject to modifications intended to meet the change of circumstances. T h e editor of Sepulveda's works states that the statutes f r a m e d by him in 1536 still for the most part ruled the College at the date of publication in 1780. Moreover those of 1648 closely resemble many collegiate statutes of the 15th. century." 94. 95. 96. 97. 98.

A statement, dated 1484, is found in one of the books in the college library, to the effect that the rector of the college paid Magister Valdiserra for printing the statutes (pro stampare statuta nostra). T h e reference is found on folio 152 b of the volume catalogued under no. 23. Ortiz Milla who first noted this (op. cit. [n. 51] p.432) believes that this otherwise unknown Magister Valdiserra must be the printer of the incunabulum: "Con esta idea y sin abandonar la busca entre los Códices, empecé á buscar entre los incunables y en los libros de administración, por si en sus gastos apareciera alguna noticia, y efectivamente, en el libro, ya catalogado por mí con el núm. 23, fol. 152 v., se encuentran, escritos algunos gastos hechos en 1484 al maestro Valdiserra, impresor, "pro stampare statuta nostra", y teniendo por fin la suerte de hallarlos citados en el Proctor con el núm. 6.558, y en el Hain con el 15.002, existentes en el British Museum, de Londres. . . ." O n the attribution of the incunabulum, I quote from a private communication from the Assistant Keeper in charge of incunabula at the British Museum, George D. P a i n t e r : " O u r attribution of the Statuta Collegii Hispanorum Bononiensis to Henricus de Haarlem is based on the type, which is identical with that used in a book signed by the same printer in partnership with Johannes de Nórdlingen at Venice, namely the Alexander de Villa Dei Doctrínale, of 25 April 1483 (Proctor t 4843; Gesamtkalalog 988)." Mr. Painter goes on to suggest that Valdesierra may have been a middleman of some kind, de Haarlem's financial backer, or possibly even his employer. T h e n a m e is found nowhere else in connection with printing. It is most unlikely that a Magister Valdiserra would be commissioned to print statutes of the college at the same time as Henricus de Haarlem, but he may well have been an employee or an associate of Henricus when he printed the statutes in 1484-85. 101. Pedro Fernandez de Frias, Cardinal Bishop of Sabina, died in Florence on September 9, 1420. H e had been Bishop of Osma (1379),

nances and statutes which, because of the difference of the times, are in need of some reform, and these it corrects and reforms in accordance with the conditions of the times and the quality of persons. Indeed it has recently been put to us with reverence, on behalf of our beloved sons, the rector and the scholars of the college founded in our city of Bologna by the Bishop of Sabina, Egidio of happy memory, that the statutes of this same college must of necessity, for its good direction and management, be reformed and also corrected in many respects. For, although they appeared useful and necessary at the time when they were enacted, they may yet be altered for the better in accordance with the difference of the times. We have therefore been humbly entreated, on behalf of the rector and scholars, to deign to make suitable provision for the reform and correction of these statutes. Accordingly, we, who willingly make provision for the benefit of our subjects, and in particular of those who endeavor with all their might to acquire knowledge, entrust with this Your Fraternity, in whom we have special confidence in the Lord, concerning these as well as other matters. And regarding the aforementioned subject, as it is said that you have been quite fully informed, we commit to you and charge you by the tenor of the present letter with the task of seeing and diligently investigating these same statutes. What you find in them to be in need of correction and reform, you shall, by our authority and with the wisdom given to you by the Lord, correct and reform according as the quality of the times and the condition of persons demand. When these statutes have been corrected and reformed, you shall, by the aforesaid authority, cause and command them to be observed inviolably, all oaths sworn to observe the former statutes, and all contrary apostolic confirmations and constitutions notwithstanding.

of the letter

After we had received this with due submission and reverence, we saw and diligently examined the statutes of the said college, we cut out what we believed ought to be cut out, we clarified what was ambiguous, made some additions and alterations according to the grace given to us by God, and drew up all the statutes in the present volume. W e will and, by the apostolic authority delegated to us, we command all members of the said college, chaplains, officials, and anyone else affected by these statutes, or who may in the future be affected by them, to make use of these statutes only, which have been reformed by us, and of no other; to observe these statutes inviolably and in so far as each and every person is able, to cause them to be observed; and not to presume to make other statutes without special authority from the apostolic see; all oaths sworn to observe former statutes notwithstanding, as well as all other matters so declared by our Lord Pedro. In witness thereof, we have had the present volume of statutes copied on twenty sheets, secured by our usual seal, and all the sheets tied with the cord to which the seal is appended. They were copied by the notary Sancho de Sernano, whose signature is appended; we request him, as well as the witnesses whose names are appended, to attest everything contained therein, our publication, reform, and commands; and we direct him to sign his name according to his custom at the end of every sheet and at the end of the statutes copied in the present volume.

indiction, in the time of the lord and most holy father in Christ, Lord Gregory XI, Pope by divine providence, on the twenty-fourth day of the month of November. THE

PROEMIUM

In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, of the glorious Virgin, His Mother, of the blessed Archangel Michael, of the blessed martyr Clement, and of the blessed virgin Catherine, amen. As Augustine, the most illustrious of the doctors, testifies {City of God, 19. 1) "order is the arrangement of things equal and unequal, each duly disposed in its own place"; through it individual things fittingly allotted hold their place; without its rein every design of human actions and vows falls into wretched error, when order fails to be preserved; this is so not only in spiritual matters, which are of necessity confined to the path of the best ordered arrangement, but also in the affairs of the world in which order often obtains. It is therefore fitting and profitable that learned and studious men, a part of whose happiness consists in beholding the virtues and knowledge, which have delivered souls from captivity, should without fail enter into, and be held by, the most settled order. We, therefore, Fernando de Albornoz, by the grace of God and of the apostolic see Archbishop of Seville, and Alfonso, Archdeacon of Toledo, were named executors of the last will and testament of the very reverend lord and father in Christ, of most renowned memory, Lord Egidio de Albornoz, Bishop of Sabina, cardinal of the Holy Roman Church, legate general in Italy, by whose notable valor the Patrimony of Saint Peter, which had been shaken by the whirlwinds of storms while the madness of tyranny was raging, recovered its former freedom and now enjoys the calm of its own peace; we were specially delegated in his testament to build, or to see to the building of, a house or palace which

he decreed and commanded to be constructed for the benefit of poor scholars, provided that they be of Spanish origin, in the very flourishing and rich city of Bologna, foster mother of both branches of law, and to gather these same scholars together into a college by ordinance, constitution, or new foundation. The will of the said testator, which it is fitting most worthily to observe as law, we executed together with the reverend lord and father in Christ, Lord Pedro of Toledo, by the grace of God Bishop of Osma. T o him and to me, Fernando mentioned above, power was granted by the executors of the codicils of the aforementioned lord of Sabina to draw up statutes for the aforementioned house which we have established and brought to perfect completion. We have endowed it sufficiently from the possessions of the said lord so that the aforementioned scholars shall be enabled the more freely and readily to be intent upon the acquisition of knowledge; wishing, so far as pertains to us, to make sound provision for the security of this college and its welfare, so that, with the favor of him whose affair it is, its condition may prosper and grow increasingly more excellent. By the authority and leave granted to us in this matter, we sanction, decree, and enact the statutes and ordinances written below and command that they be observed inviolably by all persons living, in any capacity whatever, in the college of the said house or who may live there in the future, in so far as any one of them is affected by these statutes. FIRST STATUTE. That the college shall be called the Spanish House and the chapel therein, Saint Clement's. And first, executing the will of the aforementioned lord, which we have fully determined in all the particulars which are recorded below, we decree that the aforementioned house which is located in Via Saragossa," between the Seraglio and "Sepulveda, op. cit.

STATUTES OF THE COLLEGE

the Crux Sanctorum (Cross of the Saints), next to Santa Maria delle Muratelle and San Cristoforo, and is surrounded by a public street, shall be called the Spanish House. And that the chapel built therein shall be known by the name of Saint Clement, Pope and martyr, in whose honor and reverence the same lord of Sabina ordained it to be built; for these are literally the dispositions made in his testament. How many scholars there shall be, and how many in each faculty; and that a scholar admitted to one faculty shall not transfer to another; and that there shall be one rector and four councilors. SECOND STATUTE.

Likewise, since we find that the resources of the college have increased in such a way that they are sufficient for more scholars than had been originally ordained, we add six to the former number and ordain and decree that the college of the said house shall consist of thirty students, of whom eight shall attend lectures in holy theology, eighteen in the holy canons, and four in the science of medicine. A student once admitted to one of the aforementioned faculties shall not attend lectures in another. He shall not transfer in any way whatever, though he may be fortified with any dispensation whatsoever. He shall instead direct his thought manfully upon the subjects taught in the faculty in which he was placed from the beginning; except that a student of theology may attend a course on the treatises On Penance and On Consecration and a student of canon law may attend a course on the Book of Sentences' and the Saragossa by the cardinal. T h e street is still called Via Saragossa. T h e Church of Santa Maria delle Muratelle still exists in the neighborhood of the college. T h e names of the Serraglio (enclosure) and Crux Sanctorum are no longer in use. See G. Guidicini op. cit.

Institutes' in the way which shall seem to them most profitable, this, however, only once. No one shall be admitted to another faculty except by default, as is recorded below. One head shall be set over them all, who shall be called rector of the college, for according to the saying of the sage, "where no wise guidance is, the people falleth" (Prov. 1 1 : 1 4 ) ; and a community without a leader might easily perish like a ship without oarsmen. And so thirty in number shall make up the college corporation, all of whom shall be secular, whether clerics or laymen, so that no member of a religious order shall be admitted among them; for men of different professions in general get along badly with one another. But if among the churches recorded below, to which the right of presenting the said students pertains, there should be regular churches, and they should send scholars from among their canons regular, we will that such be admitted without question. And since, according to the saying of Solomon "in the multitude of councilors there is safety," (Prov. 1 1 : 1 4 ) we ordain and decree that, from the said corporation, four councilors shall be chosen to assist the aforesaid rector in directing the said college, namely one from among the students of theology, two from among the students of canon law, and one from among the medical students. With their counsel and agreement, or with that of the majority of them, the said rector shall rule the aforesaid college and govern it ; he shall ordain the settling of all affairs and adjust them according to the power granted to him by these our statutes. The manner of choosing the said rector and councilors will be recorded in order below, as well as their qualifications, the office and power of each of most important text, apart from Scripture, which was studied during the first years of preparation for the licentia examination in theology.

And since, next to the salvation of his soul, the main intention of the aforesaid Lord Egidio was, by setting up this house, to obviate the ignorance of the Spaniards, for among them, because of the crises of wars and the innumerable other disasters which befell this province in his own time, the knowledge of letters and the number of trained men have been much reduced; for that reason he willed that Spaniards only should live in the house; and accordingly he commanded in his testament that it should be called the Spanish House, and this the executors of the codicils later declared. We, executing his will in all particulars, decree that no one shall be received or admitted to the aforesaid college for any reason whatever unless he be of the Spanish nation, the word Spain being understood in its widest acception, to include all the realms which are from the mountains of Hesperia onwards,10 and among Spaniards, men from one of those places where the Lord Cardinal himself was holding ecclesiastical benefices at the time of his death or where he had held them at earlier periods; for, among the duties of charity, we are held under obligation primarily to those from whom we are known to have received favors. These Spaniards shall be elected in the following order: First from the city and diocese of Toledo 10 Note that under the general name of Spain, not only Castile and Aragon are included but also Portugal.

S T A T U T E S OF THE COLLEGE

By the tender mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ, we earnestly implore the prelates, chapters, and others whom the presentation concerns, to set aside all private advantage and affection and, fixing their attention on God alone, to elect for presentation to these places those whom they shall consider best. The candidates shall show discernment; they shall be teachable, well equipped to study, and such that their lives and customs prove them to be praiseworthy. And they shall be poor, since otherwise there would not be true almsgiving. They shall be grounded in the basic principles as they are specified below. For according to the canonical, legal, and prophetic rules, he who puts last what should be put first and puts first what should be last acts wrongly and does injury by his preference. Likewise, in order that those persons who present students shall not be too tardy, we will that the candidates whom they should send shall be awaited up to ten months only from the day of the messenger's return. During this period of waiting no one shall be admitted to the vacant place, in order that when the students arrive they shall find the place free. And if students have been sent in accordance with what has been written above, and what shall also be recorded below, they shall be received and established in the vacant places. Otherwise, when the term of ten months has elapsed, the rector, with the advice of the aforesaid councilors, shall be free to receive others and to establish them in the vacant places, provided that they be Spaniards and have the same qualifications as those who are to be sent by others. In the matter, however, either of making known to those concerned in the presentation that there is such a vacancy or of examining scholars who have been dispatched, we forbid the rector, under the penalty of perjury," to incur the guilt of negligence, 13 Rashdall, III 437f. "The tremendous penalties involved by perjury supplied so convenient a sanction for all kinds of rules and regulations that their aid was invoked on the most trifling occasions It is

fraud, or deceit, in order that the privilege of granting admittance or subsidy should devolve upon him. Rather, we will and command that, throughout the said term of ten months, he shall, through any one available, urgently remind those who have the right of presentation that they should send students. It must be done without expense to the college or, if this cannot be avoided, at least at small expense, not to exceed two florins in the course of the ten months. And he shall not have the power to reject any of the students sent by the churches except those whose rejection is allowed by the statutes. But if, after some one has been thus admitted by the rector and his council, another student sent by those who have the right of presentation should apply, the one who has already been received shall not in any way be required to yield to him, unless the student so presented and sent shall give sufficient proof of legally valid delay. But support shall charitably be provided for him outside the house, by way of alms, if the college is rich and prosperous; this we leave to the discretion and conscience of the rector and his councilors. And if, dwelling thus outside the house, he works manfully to acquire knowledge and proves himself praiseworthy by his life and character, it is our will that the rector shall be required to admit him to the first vacancy in the student's own faculty, with the proviso that the procedure concerning the faculties shall in no way be thrown into confusion. Thus a student in a faculty other than theology shall on no account be admitted to the place of a student of canon law. But in the place of the medical students, since we have found by experience that it is not easy to find Spaniards instructive to observe in later statutes and ordinances a growing disposition to substitute written certificates for corporal oaths, and pecuniary penalties for spiritual terrors." Note the care with which abuse of these penalties is guarded against in the present statutes (see Statute 36).

who want to study medicine, and also if there should for some reason be any difficulty in finding theologians and canonists, in order that their places shall not remain vacant, it is our will that Spaniards be received and admitted to study logic and philosophy;14 this after they shall have sworn an oath that upon the arrival from Spain of theologians, canonists, and medical students who should have occupied their seats, they shall yield to them without any difficulty. And, if at that time the rector and his councilors should not find such competent Spaniards at Bologna, we give them leave to write to Spain a second time or to the Roman Curia, without, however, incurring any expense to the college, and to ask these chapters and prelates or, at the rector's and councilors' discretion, even private individuals to send for admission to this college suitable persons according to the decrees above and below. Their arrival shall be awaited for as long as shall seem proper to the rector and his councilors. And, if in the meanwhile another place should fall vacant, on account of which a messenger should have to be sent specially to Spain, we give the rector leave to send letters through him at the same time to whomever he pleases concerning the sending of a second student. If, while they are waiting, other students sent by those who have the presentation should happen to arrive first, it is our will that regardless of their delay they shall, if they otherwise fulfil the requirements, be admitted and appointed to the vacant places. But later, when the other students come, in answer to the rector's request, provision 13

1:1 T h e faculty of medicine was considered inferior to that of law, and the study of medicine led to less distinguished careers than that of law. " Although law was always the most important subject taught at Bologna, the studium was proud of its other faculties. By the fourteenth century, the College of Medicine was second only to those of Salerno and Montpellier. Rhetoric and g r a m m a r were required for their propaedeutic value, and the arts' students were not considered the equal of the jurists or of the medical students.

shall be made for them outside the house according to the rule given above for similar cases, lest they find themselves deceived. And, if they remain in the studium of Bologna and make good progress, they shall be admitted to the first places vacant in the college, without prejudice to churches that have shown no negligence. But if the scholars sent by those who have the presentation should arrive at the same time as these others, and otherwise fulfil the requirements, preference shall be given to the former, and provision shall be made for the others outside the house, as has been stated above. And in the name of the Lord we beseech those who have the presentation to send scholars originating from their own cities or dioceses, if they can find such as are fit for knowledge. If, however, they send scholars from elsewhere, it is our will that these be accepted, provided that they originate from within the boundaries of Spain. But, if the aforesaid patrons have not succeeded in finding any qualified students and if the rector has been unable to find competent Spaniards in accordance with what has been stated above, it is our will that, with the advice of the aforementioned councilors, he shall select others than scholars of Spanish origin, from anywhere except from the city and diocese of Bologna." We do not make this exception without reason, for it is not the custom of any other university, Paris, Toulouse, Osma, Perugia, or any other place where similar colleges exist, that anyone from the city itself be admitted to places thus falling vacant. The rector shall be required to admit them in the following manner : In his presence and in that of the councilors and of the major part of the college, they shall first, while touching the Holy Gospels, swear that when Spaniards arrive they shall, on command of the rector, yield to them without opposition, " T h i s restriction does not appear in the statutes of the Gregorian College, which liberally provides for the support of three scholars from Bologna.

without argument or question, and release their places. In these places the rector shall be required, under penalty of perjury, necessarily to admit these Spaniards. And it is our will that an authentic writing be made of this oath, from which they may be convicted if they should in any way resist. In case of such resistance, we command the whole college to rise up against these, under the penalty of perjury, and to expel them straightway from the house. Beyond the penalty of perjury, which they shall incur ipso facto, those who oppose resistance shall forfeit any right which they had at the college. Likewise, in this case, we forbid that more than one scholar be admitted from any one city or diocese or more than two from the same province, lest, if several were received at the same time from the same city or province, they should exercise a kind of monopoly against the Spanish nation. In this case alone, and according to the rules mentioned above, do we allow others than Spaniards to be admitted. No rector, however, or governor of the college, or councilor may, under any circumstance, be other than a Spaniard. And, in case contrary action should have been taken, it shall be altogether invalid. Any member of the college who either suggests or moves admission against the rules given in this statute, that is in the part dealing with the fact that it is forbidden to admit others than Spaniards in any way, except in the case specified above; or who considers, advises, takes part in, or gives his tacit or explicit consent to such a move; or does not prevent it to the utmost of his ability by word and deed, shall forfeit any right which he may have had in the college, over and above the penalty of perjury, which it is our will that he incur ipso facto; and he shall immediately be expelled from the house without any discussion; and this statute, in this particular section, shall neither be discarded nor mitigated, corrected nor altered, suspended nor relaxed, nor shall this

be done for the sake of any one, even if this should be the will of the whole college, with no dissenting voice. In what subjects those who are to be admitted to the college must be grounded; and what is to be done if those who have been, or are to be, sent are deficient. FIFTH STATUTE.

Likewise we decree that the abovementioned students who are to be received into the college must, before they are admitted, be competently grounded in the elements, according to the following rules: Those who are to study canon law, at least in grammar; those who are to study theology and medicine, at least in logic and grammar, in such a way that they have a good foundation.16 And because the aforesaid two faculties cannot be attended with the best results without philosophy, we grant permission to those admitted who, at the time of their admission, have not studied philosophy, to attend courses in philosophy for three continuous years after their admission to the college, with this condition that in the last two of these years they shall be required to attend, without interruption, one course in the faculty into which they were admitted. Those who have not received the basic training may not be admitted to this college, whether they were sent from Spain by the patrons aforementioned or if, as a result of the patrons' neglect, this admission fell to the rector, except for what we decreed above concerning the arts' students admitted in default of others. But in cases when -scholars thus insufficiently prepared have been sent by the patrons of " M a n y colleges had similar requirements; in Paris, for instance: "Also observing that, where there is no foundation, there can be no superstructure, . . . and that grammar, logic, physics and other inferior sciences are the road to and basis of other superior sciences, we decree and ordain that no one should be admitted . . . unless he shall previously have been adequately (sufficienter) grounded in elementary subjects, as to which he shall be required to give satisfaction before the college. . . ."

the college, in order that they shall not return home emptyhanded, it is our will that they be supported outside, in some house as close to the college as possible, for two continuous years. They shall be provided with only half of the regular portion, namely four measures of wine and four of grain, and eight Bolognese pounds and, at the opening of the schools, with one unfurred cloak." It the college should at the time be prosperous, and they of good character, usefully endeavoring to acquire knowledge, provided that the number of those inadequately prepared and thus living out do not in any way exceed three at one time; and if in the said period of two years some of them should, in praiseworthy manner, have become proficient in the said basic subjects and made such progress that they seem fit to attend the faculties to which they were sent; it is our will that they be received in their own faculties and admitted to the first vacant places reserved for the churches by which they were sent, or to other vacancies, after swearing an oath that they shall yield to those to whom those places belong. SIXTH STATUTE. No one whose income exceeds the sum of fifty florins is admitted; and if the revenue of a scholar already received should increase, what is to be done is here indicated.

And since the intention of our aforesaid Lord Egidio was to build this college for the benefit of the poor, lest lack of maintenance should deprive them of the opportunity to study and make progress, and, since to give to the rich is nothing but squandering, we therefore decree and ordain that no one be admitted in this college whose receipts and revenue shall exceed the sum of fifty gold Bologna florins as income," whether " In Italian universities, the cap pa was a long, black, outer garment. O n the proper academic dress, see Rashdall, III, 385ff. " I n the 1558 version of the statutes, this is changed to quinquagmta aureorum bononiam allatorum.

accruing from his paternal estate or from ecclesiastical benefices. And if the income of anyone among the scholars should presently increase, either from his patrimony, or some benefice, or any other source of revenue from which income may be derived, or if he is himself responsible for not receiving this income, he shall be required to leave the college within six months and to yield his place to another poor scholar, under the penalty of perjury. It is our will that the said six months be reckoned from the day on which he is notified that he has obtained possession of such a source of revenue. In case the rector or others should be ignorant of these facts we lay this upon the conscience of each and everyone. But if there is firm expectation that he shall reach graduation within a year or two in the faculty which he has attended, it is our will that, in order that the college be honored in the person of one whom it has fostered for such a long time, he shall remain in the college until he is granted the degree, this on condition that he shall have nothing from the subsidy ordained for students who are to receive the licence. And this firm expectation shall be based upon the word of the doctor under whom he is studying,1" who shall examine him in the presence of the rector. This regulation, however, is not to obtain in the case of the rector of the college, however richly provided he may be in patrimony or ecclesiastical benefices; for we have seen from experience that the college derives honor from the fact that the rector is wealthy and distinguished, and we consider this advantageous to the college. But it is our will that it be altogether observed in the case of other members of the college corporation, both those admitted before this particular statute

was enacted and those w h o are to be admitted henceforth. T h e examination into the grounding in the basic subjects, the poverty, life, character, discernment, the docility or aptitude to study of students w h o are to be admitted, we commit to the rector with the above-mentioned councilors. And in the name of God and of the glorious Virgin, His Mother, we entreat them exceedingly, and we lay it upon their conscience, to seek information with charity and diligence, after having set aside all worldly affection, and to admit those scholars whom they believe to be the best. But if they should not agree in their judgment, the decision shall rest on the vote of the rector and two councilors. But if three of the councilors and a fortiori if all four should oppose the judgment of the rector, advice shall be sought from the doctor who shall have been engaged for the longest period in the teaching of canon law at Bologna, and they shall effectively abide by his decision. But in case of disagreement, if anyone from the house of Albornoz should happen to be studying at Bologna at that time, he may, if he has completed his twentieth year, pass upon the examinations of such scholars by himself and without the appointment of a doctor. S T A T U T E . The amount of time that students must remain in the college, and what is to be done when it has come to an end, is here settled. SEVENTH

Although, for those who wish to study well, a period of seven years is usually sufficient, and no longer period is granted to clerics who have the cure of souls, nevertheless, because students are more remiss today than they used to be and in order that they may make better progress, we ordain and decree that those studying in the aforesaid college may remain there for eight continuous years; for in such a long period they may well, if they so wish, rise to the honor of the master's degree.

and pass it before or near the end of the time specified above, it is our will that he shall likewise leave the said college within a month, as if the period of eight years had already been completed. But if, because of his competence, he should be honored by the university of the studium of Bologna with an election to some lectureship in the faculty in which he gradua t e d , h e may remain as before at the college to attend to his lectureship for three years, to be reckoned from the day of this election, as if he had not graduated and his time had not lapsed. We do not care if his lectureship should be changed the following year, as long as he shall be elected by the university" to give some lecture, either ordinary or extraordinary.23 But when his university appointment and his lecto become a doctor of both civil and canon law (Doctor utriusque iuris) in ten years." Since these practice lectures were academic exercises given by bachelors and were not compulsory, it was generally difficult to secure an audience, hence this regulation. Cf. ibid., pp. 246f. At Bologna the candidate for the doctorate of medicine must be twenty years of age, of five years' standing in the study of medicine and "sufficient in arts." If he had been licenced in arts, four years of medicine were enough. The baccalaureate was not a degree at Bologna, as it was in. Paris. See G. Cencetti, "La laurea nelle Università medioevali," Studi e Memorie per la Storia dell' Univ. di Bologna XVI (1943), 249-273; G. Post, "Alexander, the Licentia Docendi and the Rise of the Universities," Haskins Anniversary Essays in Mediaeval History (Boston, 1929), pp. 255-277. Students were allowed to elect some ordinary and some extraordinary professors to salaried chairs at the studium of Bologna. M Doctors were elected to their professorship annually. 23 T h e distinction between ordinary and extraordinary lectures originated at Bologna. The ordinary lectures were held in the morning (ad primam de mane) and dealt with the essential texts. Later, the main distinction was the fact that the university of students stipulated and paid for the ordinary lectures, whereas the extraordinary lectures were in general voluntarily given by teachers and paid for by casual contributions. T h e ordinary lectures were usually reserved for doctors who by the latter part of the thirteenth century received a stipend from the city of Bologna. Extraordinary lectures might be given in the afternoon by competent scholars who had been "admitted to read" by the rector of the university and who were known as legentes non doctores or docentes extraordinarii. By delivering such a course of lectures, a scholar became a bachelor. See Rashdall, I, 207.

But since, in this studium, theological students are never elected in this manner, if any theological student from our college corporation should present himself for the master's examination and pass it before the end of the said eight years, it is our will that he be allowed to remain in the college to hold the chair of theology for three years after receiving the said master's degree.24 But if two or more should have become candidates for the master's degree at the same time, the one who graduates first shall be given preference in the matter of holding the chair, unless the one who graduates later should have such distinction that he deserves to be preferred to the former. This matter we entrust to the examination and decision of the rector with his councilors, who shall first receive information from the theologians.25 A student shall on no account be required to leave the college because of receiving the bachelor's degree26 before the completion of his eight years. '* Rashdall, I, 251 n. 4, cites this passage as evidence to show that a secular could become a doctor or teacher at Bologna. T h e statutes printed in 1558 provide for a permanent chair of theology at the college. 25 Cardinal Albornoe was influential in promoting the petition of the commune requesting the establishment of a faculty of theology in the studium, which was finally granted in 1360. For its statutes, etc., see F. Ehrle, I più antichi statuti della facoltà teol. dell' Università di Bologna (Bologna, 1932). See also Introduction, note 13, above. 9 Rashdall, I, 249. ". . . the bachelorship possessed much less importance in the Bolognese schools of arts and medicine than in the Schools of Paris or even in the Law School of Bologna." Ibid., I, 220f : After studying for five years a student of civil law might be admitted by the rector to lecture on a single title of the civil or canon law, or on a whole book after six years. A canonist could simply lecture on a single title after four years of "hearing," or on a whole decretal after five years. The licence of the rector to "read" a title or book or rather the completion of such a course of lectures made a man a bachelor. Originally bachelors were student teachers, allowed to teach in a master's school,

In addition, if anyone from the corporation of the aforesaid college wishes to present himself for the examination toward the degree of master or doctor and is so poor that he is in no way able to meet the expenses of the "private" examination," we grant permission to the rector and the councilors to allow him forty Bolognese pounds, to be considered as alms, from the college funds, to assist him toward the expenses of the "private" examination, so that he shall not need to sell his books or the clothes he needs.2' This applies only to students who have already spent four years at least studying in this college, who have presented themselves for the examination at Bologna, and who have been received. This money is on no account to be given before the student has successfully passed his examination, unless, as we know as they had been doing practice teaching when they gave lectures on specified subjects or books before they received the baccalaureate. Ibid., 221 : "No examination or formal test was ever required at Bologna for the baccalaureate, which was altogether much less of a distinct 'degree' and of much less importance than it eventually became in the academical system of Paris or Oxford." Cencetti, op. cit. (see footnote 20 above) points out that in Bologna the baccalaureate was not a degree as it was in Paris and that Rashdall is wrong to equate bachelors with repetitores (see footnote 30 below). T o obtain the baccaleaureate at Bologna, it was enough to have held a public disputation. 27 After being presented to the rector, candidates who had fulfilled all the conditions and done the work were allowed by him to enter the examination. The candidate was then presented to the archdeacon or to the prior of the college of doctors. He was introduced by "his own" teacher (doctor praesentans) and examined in camera by at least two doctors appointed by the college of doctors. When he had passed this "private examination" he was admitted to a public examination, after which he obtained the licence. T h e celebration which followed the passing of these examinations was accompanied by much ceremony and pageantry. 2 " For the expenses connected with the examinations, see Rashdall, I, 208ff. On the traditional banquet, see Rashdall, I, 230. See also Jacques Le Goff, "Dépenses Universitaires à Padoue au XVe siècle."

from experience sometimes happens, a student would not be admitted to present himself for the examination unless the money had been deposited. In this case, it is our will that the money be loaned to him after he has given adequate pledges and sureties to guarantee that he shall return the said forty pounds if he should not pass the examination. This grace may only be granted if, at the time, the college estate is so rich and prosperous that no one residing therein shall be burdened on account of it. This grace shall on no account be extended to others than Spaniards but to students from the college corporation, truly poor, who fulfil all the other conditions mentioned above; we otherwise forbid the granting of it, under the penalty of perjury both to those granting and to those receiving it. But bread or wine from the college supply shall on no account be distributed to anyone for this "private" examination, or for disputations™ or "repetitions'"0 held by them, or for other academic functions; on the contrary we M Disputationes: Certain topics were posted in the studium, generally in the spring and summer terms; these the students could debate with the doctor disputans. Only a doctor could hold a public disputatio (disputare publice). See Manuale Scolarium, translated by R. F. Seybolt (Cambridge, Mass., 1921), pp. 79-82, for students' reaction to disputationes. Ibid., for quotations from the Leipzig University fifteenth-century statutes. 30 Repetitiones: Practical exercises in which texts which had been the subject of morning lectures were more fully explained and various theories about them interpreted. They were held in the evening. Rashdall, I, 2 4 9 : "Characteristic of the arts course at Bologna was the prominence of the Repetitiones. A Repetitio in medicine and arts was apparently somewhat different from the exercise so called in the law-schools. It was, as a rule, not given by the master himself but by a repetitor who attended the lecture and then repeated it to the students afterwards and catechized them upon it. Every doctor teaching logic was obliged to have a repetitor generalis attached to his chair; besides these official repetitores, there were repetitores speciales who may be considered the private tutors or 'coaches' of the period. T h e repetitores at Bologna occupied to some extent the position of bachelors in the northern universities." As a prerequisite, a candidate for the doctorate must have given at least one repetition.

disapprove of this being done even from private funds. For such vanities and ostentation are, not only in the case of poor scholars but even in that of wealthy students, condemned by wise and praiseworthy men and forbidden by the statutes of the university of Bologna.31 Here are stipulations concerning the number of chaplains, their duties, and default, and the part that the scholars must play in hearing and celebrating the Divine Office. NINTH S T A T U T E .

Likewise we ordain and decree that in the said house there must always be four chaplains, who shall be required to officiate continuously at the Divine Offices in the Chapel of Saint Clement located in the aforesaid college. At least two of them shall celebrate Mass every day, to wit, at dawn one shall say the Mass of the Dead for the souls of the said Lord Cardinal of Sabina especially and of his kin; and this said Mass shall begin at such an hour as to be completed before the time at which the ordinary lecture begins, in order that the scholars may, as is fitting, be able to hear the whole Mass.3" The other shall celebrate Mass according to the office of the day at Terce, when the scholars commonly return from the ordinary lectures. Those who have not attended the first Mass must attend this one, so that every student shall, failing valid impediment, necessarily be required to attend at least one of the said Masses every day. Whoever has not attended 31 Refreshments were usually provided for the examiners by the candidates. On the traditional banquets and other festivities which accompanied the awarding of the licentia docendi, see Rashdall, I, 230. Cf. Jacques Le Goff, toe. cit. (footnote 28, above) and Manuale Seolarium, pp. 70, 106ff., 115. 31 The ordinary lecture, which lasted at least two hours, began very early, at the Canonical Hour of Prime (ad primam) at the ringing of the 'morning bell' at St. Peter's, and lasted until about nine A.M., when the bell rang for Terce (signum tertium). The two extraordinary lectures scheduled for the afternoon lasted approximately from two to four and from four to five-thirty respectively in the winter and in summer from one-thirty to three and from three-thirty to five.

shall forfeit one Bologna solidus™ for each infraction, and this penalty may in no way be remitted. Anyone upon whom Holy Orders have been conferred or who holds an ecclesiastical benefice shall say the whole Divine Office as he is obliged to do de iure. But the others shall be required to say at least the Office of the glorious Virgin every day; if they do not, they shall be punished at the discretion of the rector. If three or all four of the said chaplains wish to celebrate every day, we commend their devotion in the Lord. They shall, however, be required to serve two by two, each two for a week at a time, the one assisting the other as the rector of the college shall see fit to dispose. They shall be required to yield obedience to him in everything concerning the service of the chapel, both in divine matters and in others. If anyone of the said chaplains should fail to celebrate the Office, which he is absolutely required to perform, one anconitanus" shall be withdrawn each time from his salary. This money shall be assigned to another priest from the college, if there is one who wishes to perform the service, or to one from outside the college, in order that on that day or at least on the following day there shall be some one to celebrate the Office in the place of the absentee. And if, at the time, no priest can conveniently be found to substitute in his absence, this money shall be distributed to the poor, on behalf of the soul of the said Lord Cardinal of Sabina. If, however, the said priest is prevented from performing his Office by some just and reasonable cause, we grant him permission to have some one else 33 In the scale of monetary fines imposed on the scholars, the lightest was one anconitanus, originally a small coin from Ancona, imitated by many cities, including Bologna. It was equivalent to a solidus (a sou), or twelve denarii. A student wearing garments other than the statutory dress (stat. 18, 38) or not attending lectures regularly (stat. 30) was fined one anconitanus for each infraction. Every time he failed to hear the daily Mass, he must pay one Bologna solidus, the twentieth part of a pound (libra). We may note that an unfurred cloak or gown was worth 25 solidi (stat. 18).

celebrate as his substitute. We commit to the rector the duty of investigating the justice of such a cause, and we lay it upon his conscience. If one or more of the chaplains should fail through death or some other accident, it is our will that, in order that the Divine Worship be not reduced in any way, the person or persons whose duty it is to provide for this shall immediately seek other competent and honorable men to appoint in their places. And if it is impossible in such a short time to find competent and suitable men, the rector shall supply this vacancy by calling upon priests who are scholars of the college, if there be any, or other priests from outside the college, who shall be remunerated from the salary of those who are absent, at the discretion of the rector, in proportion to their time and service. S T A T U T E : This statute contains directions about the chaplains, from where they should come, what manner of men they should be, by whom they are to be admitted and disciplined; and what is to be considered in connection with their admission. TENTH

We likewise decree that the aforesaid chaplains shall be Spaniards, if such may be found suitable and competent. Otherwise chaplains from anywhere else may be admitted, who shall be of praiseworthy lives and honorable behavior. Before their admission, the rector or the person in charge of receiving them shall carefully ascertain that they are in possession of letters from their own bishops, authorizing them to celebrate Mass. For it frequently happens that men who have become infamous, or who have become entangled in other snares, depart from their own country and in distant lands where their failings are not known they participate in the Divine Services to the grave danger and ruin of their own souls. We do not authorize the college chaplains, even if they

We expressly forbid any and everyone of these chaplains to hold any benefice or chaplaincy which requires personal residence or which may in any manner interfere with their service of the said college chapel. If anyone of them should act contrary to this statute, he shall straightway be expelled from the house and another competent man shall be chosen in his place. The said chaplains shall be free to study theology or canon law, or not to study, according as they shall decide of their own will. They must be selected and appointed by the descendant in the male line of the family or blood of the said Lord Cardinal of Sabina who shall at the time be staying at Bologna. But if no such descendant should at the time be staying at Bologna, the chaplains shall be appointed by the rector of the college with his councillors. And once thus admitted, they may remain in the service of the said chapel even beyond the term of eight years, for as long as they wish and it seems to the rector and his councilors that they fulfill their office thoroughly and conscientiously.

All the scholars shall attend the solemn celebration of all these Divine Offices, and they shall also act as servers as the rector shall direct them. Those, however, who on these days and at these hours should be attending ordinary or extraordinary lectures, shall on no account be required to be present at these services but only chaplains specially appointed to celebrate them and the scholars not attending lectures at the time. And it is our will that the offerings, if any are made in the said chapel by the scholars and servants of the said house or by anyone else, shall be delivered to the parish church within the limits of which the college is located. Likewise we decree that at Vespers on the twenty-third of the month of August, on which day the Lord Cardinal of Sabina of happy memory entered the way of all flesh," and at Mass on the twenty-fourth a solemn anniversary shall be celebrated devoutly every year in the aforesaid chapel on behalf of his soul. On this day four torches and no more shall be used, and each scholar and chaplain from the said college shall say the whole Office of the Dead on behalf of his soul and of those of his kin. But if any chaplain or student should not be present at any of the aforesaid Offices, as has been specified above, or if anyone should have

In the matters mentioned above, the cook, the undercook, and all other servants employed in the service of the house shall be required to assist the manager and to help him whenever the opportunity shall arise. The manager, however, shall not have the power to punish those who are unsatisfactory or disobedient. For we reserve the right to punish to the rector in charge and to him alone. And because, as our Lord tells us in the Gospel (Luke 12 :42), this office is full of peril and suspicions, since "it is required in stewards that a man be found faithful" (I Cor. 4:2), we will that, before he takes up his duties, this manager or procurator shall, while touching the Holy Gospels held in the hands of the rector, take an oath in the presence of the councilors and of some members of the college. He shall swear faithfully to fulfill his duty and to do all the things which he shall be commanded to do, as specified above, setting aside all deceit, and not to withdraw from the college before rendering full account to the rector with his councilors of everything received and administered by him and obtaining quittance. A public instrument shall be made to register this oath. And every day, in the evening, he shall be required, failing valid impediment, to deliver either personally or through some one else to the rector or to his deputy a list containing all the ordinary and extraordinary expenses incurred that day. And the rector shall be required to examine these lists carefully, either on the same day or at least on the following day, and to preserve them; and with their help he and the councilors shall, at the beginning of every week, examine the expenses that the manager shall have recorded in the book.

We do not allow the said manager to be a member of the college corporation, nor do we wish anyone from the college corporation to be burdened with this duty, since it is our will that the students shall devote all their time to the practice of study; unless the said manager should be sick or be prevented by some just and reasonable cause from performing his office, or should for some reason leave it. If then the rector should decide that this office should be entrusted to some one from the college, this member of the college shall be required to give absolute obedience to the rector, until the manager shall be free to perform his duty again or until the rector with his four councilors shall decide to appoint some person from outside the collegc. If, however, the appointment should be delayed too long, because a competent person cannot be found so easily or because the manager's disability lasts a long time, and if the scholar to whom this office has been entrusted should be excessively burdened by it, the rector shall be required to divide the responsibility of it among the fellow's or to assign it to them by the month, according to his best judgment. And if the substitute renders a good account of his administration, he shall, in addition to the ordinary portion due to scholars, be compensated in proportion to the time he shall have served, not, however, in such a way as to equal the salary of the regular manager. But if any fraud or deceit is found in their administration, they shall be punished more severely than the manager would have been. When the administration of the duty thus entrusted to them shall have come to an end, we forbid these scholars to spend any monies belonging to the college without express command from the rector, this under the penalty of perjury, which they shall incur ipso

Likewise, they shall have one good steward, faithful and zealous, whose constant concern it shall be to look after each and all the properties of the college and its other possessions located outside the walls of the city of Bologna; and, in particular, he shall cultivate them, or have them cultivated, or rent them either to tenants in exchange for their labor or for rent money, according to the arrangements which the rector and his councilors shall decide to make for the best advantage of the college. His duties shall be as follows: to sell the grass or hay from the fields, grazing rights, and the wood from the forests, at suitable times; to enforce and receive payment for the price of these sales; to see that wine, corn, and all other produce from the college holdings, and the wood necessary for the said college, shall be brought to the house of the aforesaid college at suitable times; to make contracts with farmhands concerning the ploughing of the lands, and also to maintain, repair, and faithfully keep in good condition the houses and implements and to do everything else which is necessary in connection with the college properties outside the walls and with their produce. The said steward shall absolutely be required to give obedience to the rector's commands in all matters mentioned above, and in everything regarding the condition and advantage of the college, and in all things con-

And in performing the duties of his office, particularly the weighty ones, he shall be required first to obtain the advice and approval of the rector, and to make over in full to the rector, within eight days of receiving them, all the monies received which belong to the college, this under penalty of perjury. He shall absolutely be required, under the penalty of perjury, to render a faithful account to the rector and his councilors at least once a month, of all the expenses which he shall be incurring in tending the property, in storing its produce, and in all the other matters mentioned above. And if, at the vintage or harvest season, it seems useful to the rector to have one, two, or several members of the college assist the steward at the expense and cost of the college, this shall be left to the will and discretion of the rector. Any member of the college who is enjoined to do this by his command shall be required to obey under the penalty of perjury, unless illness or some other urgent need should lawfully excuse him. The rector, however, shall use discernment in imposing such burdens and shall consider the condition of the times, of the persons, and of the business that must be dispatched. If, however, the rector is able to dispatch this matter through other servants of the house, we consider this most praiseworthy, since he must be very careful that the scholars shall not be distracted from their studies because of any such responsibilities. This steward may be from Bologna, because it is useful for such a man to know the farmhands; or he may be from anywhere else, provided that he be a good man, zealous and law-abiding. We expressly forbid him to attend any faculty or to be a member of the college corporation, so that he shall not in any way be hindered from performing his office. We hold that everything which we saw fit to ordain in the previous statute concerning the manager is to be understood as repeated in the case of the steward, namely his taking the oath at the begin-

And because the holdings of the college are many and distant from one another and going to them on foot would in no way be satisfactory, it is our will that the college shall own a mule or a horse for the use and mount of the said steward when he goes to inspect the college properties. The steward himself shall always have the care of it at the expense of the college. Or if the rector and his councilors should consider it more advantageous for the college to hire some horse or otherwise to provide for one, when it becomes necessary for the steward to inspect the possessions of the college, and to keep it for the whole year at college expense, we leave this to their free will and discretion. We forbid all the other residents of the house, and even the rector himself, under the penalty of perjury, to own a horse or a mule, hunting dogs, or birds at the expense of the college, or even at their own expense." If, however, the rector or some one else at his command should set out on a trip on college business, the horses needed, and no superfluous ones shall be hired at college expense. But concerning the expenses of the said steward, of the aforesaid manager, and of all the others who spend any of the college monies, the rector shall be required to have a book compiled every year, either by himself or by some other legally competent person. All the expenses incurred in that year shall be entered in this book; or he may have all the expense books bound together; and by means of M Rashdall, I I I , 419, n. 2 ; 421, etc., mentions similar prohibitions at Heidelberg and elsewhere.

Concerning the keeping of the lists and their examination, the closing of his accounts, the beginning of a new book, handing over of the old one, taking of the oath at the beginning of his term of office, and concerning all matters which we saw fit to compile in the article dealing with the steward, it is our will that the same shall likewise obtain in the case of the cellarer. For the larger storeroom three different keys shall be made, one of which shall be held by the said cellarer; and he shall show special attention to the preservation of the grain and of the other produce stored there; the rector shall have another key, and the eldest among the councilors the other one, so that it shall never be possible to open the said storeroom without them. And if the larger cellar should also appear to them to need safeguarding, we ordain that it shall be left to their discretion. Likewise, in addition to the above, there shall be five servants, of whom one shall be specially assigned to the service of the rector because of the dignity of the rectorate. The other four shall keep watch at the gate and carry the books to the schools and bring them back, but only for the canonists, especially for those who hold dignities; also for the canons of cathedral churches and for those who have graduated in their discipline and for all the other canonists, if the rector considers that it can be done conveniently. Also it is our will that the books of bachelors and of masters of theology be carried, those of the masters by theological students upon whom the rector shall decide to impose this task, and those of the bachelors by the servants mentioned above. These servants shall serve all members of the said college at table, and they shall do all the housework as the rector shall direct them. Adequate salaries shall be provided for all these servants and for the cellarer, the cook, and the undercook by the rector and the councilors

Likewise, since we wish loving kindness and brotherhood to thrive among the aforesaid scholars and since jealousy is accustomed to arise as a result of the order according to which some are placed before and some after others, and as a consequence quarrels and discord are created, we therefore decree and ordain that both in chapel and at table, and wherever the members of the college have to gather together, the following seating order shall be observed : After the rector, those who hold a degree in a discipline shall sit first, according to the rank of their degree. Among the degreed men, the theologians shall have precedence of the canonists, the canonists shall have precedence of the medical students and of those in the arts; after the degreed men, those who hold ecclesiastical offices shall sit according to the rank and dignity of that office. And if it should happen that some of those who hold ecclesiastical offices should outrank degreed men, it is nevertheless our will that here learning, which is the principal calling of all members of the college, shall be honored by all, so that each one shall be inspired to seek it with virtuous endeavor. Then the chaplains who have been appointed to the service of the chapel shall be seated, and after them all the other scholars in order, according to the time when they

If two or more of equal grade, dignity or rank have been admitted together, the order of their seating shall be settled by the rector at his discretion. And thereafter each shall be required to keep the place assigned to him, unless some dignity or higher academic degree should make a change necessary. But if any of those who have precedence should come after the others are already seated at the table, they shall not have precedence, except in the case of the rector; but they shall instead sit at the end of the table, and they shall not make any disturbance, but as they have come at the end, they shall sit at the end for this one time.

But if anyone should leave the dining hall before grace has been rendered to God and without the rector's permission, he shall, for his punishment, be put on bread and water the next day publicly, in front of all, and on that day he shall not be allowed to eat elsewhere in order to escape the punishment. If he should do otherwise, he shall be punished at the rector's discretion. The above shall take place unless the scholar in question was either hearing or giving a lecture on some book, or was engaged in college affairs or in some weighty and pressing business of his own. In the latter case, however, it is our will that permission shall have been obtained from the rector, if he is in the dining hall, or from the substitute, whom he is absolutely required to delegate to take his place there. In these and similar cases, they shall be excused, and this we " Prayer for Bishops deceased, Collect from the daily Mass for the Departed, Roman Missal.

In the dining hall itself, the rector shall see to it that the food and other necessities are served to those who are seated in orderly and becoming fashion, either by the servants and help of the said house or, in their absence or if their number is inadequate, by others from the college as the rector shall deem expedient. And during the meal, decorum, temperance, and modesty shall be observed and silence kept, during the second as well as the first course. For it is our will that at that time, from the beginning of the blessing of the meal until all who have eaten rise from the table, a scholar or a chaplain shall read the Bible as is the custom of the religious orders, both at the midday and at the evening meals, each one reading for a week in turn according to the seating order. He shall read in a loud voice and without haste, in order that what he reads may be easily heard by all. When we say that this is to take place at the evening meal, it is our will that it apply when this meal is served in the daytime. If the chaplain fails to be present to say the blessing and the Bible reader is not there to read, they shall be punished at the rector's discretion. No one shall dare to bring food or drink for his private use into the said refectory. This we forbid under the penalty of perjury, because such encroachments usually breed envy among members of a college. But just as they live and eat in common, so the food and drink shall be common to all, unless the rector should deem it advisable to grant this as a special privilege to anyone because of illness or for some other just cause, which we entrust to his discretion. And if a gift has been sent to anyone eating at the common table, the rector shall distribute it among all, unless it should have been sent to someone sick, this, however, by a person of reputable character.

We consider that, except on fast days, the proper hour for the midday meal is after the end of the Mass which is to be celebrated when the scholars leave the schools; and for the evening meal, from the beginning of the school year until Quadragesima (Lent), right after the third hour of the night; and for the whole year thereafter, right after the twentysecond hour of the day." From the first of September to the beginning of the school year and during the major feasts, this may be changed at the rector's discretion. During Lent and on the other days during which the Church ordains fasting, this shall be left to the rector's discretion. Likewise we forbid any chaplain or scholar to eat outside of the house without special permission from the rector, unless it be to have the midday or the evening meal with members of the house of the founder, that is of the house of Albornoz, or with prelates from the realm of Castile. The scraps left over on the table and in the kitchen shall be gathered cleanly every day by the manager or by some one appointed to do this by the rector; and they shall be distributed as alms to the poor at the gate after the midday meal or to poor people elsewhere, as the rector shall see fit, and we. lay this upon his conscience.

Because the rule of life among scholars must be precise, definite, and prescribed, we ordain and decree that every member of the college, the rector as well as the scholars and chaplains, the manager and steward, shall receive one pound of mutton or veal of ordinary quality,43 or other good meat, varying as the rector shall see fit according to the requirements of the season, every day on which the use of flesh meat is not forbidden. This shall be served along with some suitable dish, as the rector shall decide to ordain. T h e larger portion of the meat shall be served at the midday meal,the smaller at the evening meal, or otherwise according as the rector shall decide to dispose. They shall have wine mixed with water at the rector's discretion and as much bread and salt at the midday and at the evening meal as they may want and decorum permits. On the days of the Lord's Nativity and at Easter and other feasts on which the scholars are required to say Lauds solemnly, and on the Sundays of carniprivium," each one's portion for the midday meal shall be doubled. But on feast days and on other days when the use of flesh meat is not allowed, as much shall be spent on eggs and ** Rashdall, 475, n . : "A collatio was in its primary sense an informal and short sermon; academically it came to mean an address or more usually, a disputation in which the speaker discussed matters freely, without determining or coming to a formal conclusion; . . . finally, the collationes were private disputations where there was no magister determinans, held by masters and bachelors in the Sorbonne and conventual studia." See also G. Pare, A. Brunet, P. Tremblay, La Renaissance an XIIe siecle (Paris, 1933), pp.l21ff., for the various meanings of collatio.

At the sound, the whole chapter must meet, under the penalty of bread and water which shall be imposed on that day upon those who fail to be present. It is our will that for the undertaking of any major business, two thirds of those members of the college present shall agree. For ordinary matters, what the majority decides shall be carried out. Although we wish the young boys to be present at all actions of the college corporation, in order that they may learn for the future, it is our will that their vote shall not be counted when the chapter takes action," nor are they to have any voice in such actions, unless they have completed their eighteenth year. T h e rector with his councilors shall dispatch minor business in order that the college shall not be harassed with it. If there should be any question as to what constitutes major, ordinary, or minor business, we leave the decision to the judgment of those under whose protection we shall place the college. Neither the rector, nor the councilors, nor the college as a whole, whether unanimous or differing in opinion, shall be empowered to act against these our statutes or to oppose them, to modify, correct, or alter them, to subtract from or add anything to them, or to dispense with them or any part of them in any manner, except in so far as these statutes allow.

But because physical illness is often caused by sin, we ordain and decree that any sick person, if he is strong enough and able, shall be required to confess within three days at the most from the time when he has taken to his sick bed. He shall confess all his sins purely and fully, according to the rule decreed by the Church of God, and this shall be certified by the testimony of the confessor. Otherwise, from that moment until he shall have obeyed our ordinance, he shall be suspended from all the aforesaid privileges. But if any member of the college corporation should die, and his poverty be such that he could not be buried decently from the proceeds of the sale of his books and other belongings, it is our will that five Bologna pounds be paid out for his funeral from the college funds as alms for the soul of the said Lord Cardinal of Sabina. We add that, either within the college or in some house near the college, a room with a stove or a chimney and a latrine shall be appointed, in which two or three beds shall be placed when it is expedient. This shall be called the infirmary, and the sick shall be placed there and shall stay until they are restored to health. No one but the sick and their servants shall be put in this room nor shall it be assigned for the use of any one else.

Likewise, in order that strife and quarrels shall in nowise arise on account of the choice or the change of rooms, we have decided to declare by the present statute that the upper room on the left as you enter on the side next to the schools, shall, with its appurtenances and furnishings, always be set apart for the rector, for as long as he shall remain in office. The other upper room, which is near the book cupboard, on the right, and the larger one which is under it, and the other six small ones which immediately follow the upper one, as far as the latrine, shall be held for the theologians.50 The six small rooms which immediately follow that of the rector on the left, and the six larger ones which are around the dining hall, and three others, also among the larger ones, which are in the lower enclosure on the left next to the chapel, and three others which are around the cellar shall always be assigned to students of canon law.

The small one which is on the way to the lower latrines shall be for the cellarer, and the one next to the lower latrines, outside the enclosure, for the servants of the house. We forbid everyone to choose or change their rooms on their own authority, under the penalty of the loss of their whole subsidy for as long as they shall persist in their contumacy. But each one shall complete his course of study in the room which shall be assigned to him at the time of his admission, without any change unless someone from the college corporation should happen to be elected rector. In this case he shall move to the room assigned to the use of the rector, and if the one who has just completed his term as rector should remain as a student in the college, he shall move to the best room vacant at that time in his own faculty. If none is vacant at the time, he shall move to the one which the new rector shall vacate, if he should belong to another faculty, or to any room at all that is free; but he must later move to the first vacant room in his own faculty. And if a new rector should be elected from outside the college, and all the rooms should be full at the time, in order that the retiring rector be not thus turned out of the house on account of the office of rector which he filled and in which he may have served the college usefully, and since performing this duty should never cause damage to any one, the manager's room shall be assigned to him, and the manager shall move into the cellarer's room. The retired rector shall be reinstated to the first room vacant in his own faculty, and the manager shall then go back to his own room. The large room next to the library, which is assigned to the theologians, shall always be given to the master of Holy Scripture or, if there is no master, to the bachelor who shall hold that chair in our college; and failing these it shall go to the senior student

When they have come together in the house reserved for meetings of the chapter, the elder chaplain shall hear them take an individual oath that, putting aside all personal advantage, every feeling of hatred or affection, they shall elect as rector the man whom they think and believe in their conscience to be the best for the good government and guidance of the said college, its persons and possessions. After a careful discussion of the future rector's election, they shall proceed to the election itself, by ballot, according to the method used in the university of the studium generate. And after receiving these ballots, the said chaplain shall swear in the hands of one of the councilors that he shall deal faithfully with this matter. Then the man on whom the majority of the ballots agrees shall, ipso iure, be considered and held elected and shall absolutely be required to give his consent on the same day. If he does otherwise, he shall ipso facto irrevocably incur the penalty of deprivation of all his rights and privileges in the college. No excuse shall be accepted, no exception shall be made in this matter, provided only that he be twenty-five years of age and a cleric.51 For in as much as the clerics shall make up the larger number in this college, laymen have the obligation to obey the clerics, not the authority to rule. But if no one competent to hold this office can be found within the said college, the members of the college shall then seek some suitable Spaniard for this office. If such a one willing to accept the said office should happen to be at Bologna, they shall be empowered to elect him according to the rule ordained above. After this election has been performed, as has been set forth above, those who are councilors at the time shall, on the day immediately following, faithfully 51

If, however, a member of the house of Albornoz, over twenty years of age, should happen to be staying at Bologna at the time, the result of the said election must then be presented to him alone, and he alone shall have the power freely to confirm it, to make provisions and carry out everything that is set forth above. When the confirmation of the election has been pronounced or some other measure has been taken according as is stated above, every one of the scholars of the said college, the chaplains, officers, and other servants shall be required, under the penalty of being deprived of their rights in the college, to take an oath by the Holy Gospel of God to the new rector to the effect that they will obey him in all lawful and honorable matters. When this oath has been taken, the room, the keys of the college, and all that pertains to the rector must immediately be made over to him by those in whose keeping they are at the time. And he, along with the college notary, shall be required to receive all these in person and to have an inventory made by the notary of all that belongs to the college. But on the following Feast of the Invention of the Holy Cross [May 3], each and every member of the college must, under the penalty of perjury, take part in a meeting to be held at the same time and hour as that set for the election of the rector to elect councilors by ballot in the manner described for the election of the rector. These councilors must take an oath while touching the Holy Gospels in the hands of the rector to the effect that they shall in good faith do their utmost to have these statutes observed; that in so far as pertains to their office they shall observe them and cause them to be observed; and

We decree that those who are to be elected councilors must have reached at least their twentieth year. But the rector, however able, shall not remain in office beyond two continuous years, unless it should be impossible to find another competent man, in which case, if he is willing, he may be elected for a third year, or if this is ordered by the will and authority of the Lord Fernando, Archbishop of Seville/3 and of the Lord Gómez,54 jointly or severally. For we grant them the right to look after the appointment of a rector whenever it seems necessary to them, this however without prejudice to the rector elected by the college, if an election should have been carried out before their joint decision or before the decision of one or the other of them, unless the college should have been notified before the time of the election by one of the aforesaid lords that the college must not proceed to elect because they themselves intend to appoint or have already appointed a rector.

rector to come. For these months a vicerector shall be elected, who shall yield to the appointed rector whenever he shall come, within the said period of three months. If, when such a notification has been sent to the college, the rector thus appointed should not come within three months from the day on which the former rector vacated his office, the college shall proceed to the election of a rector according to the rule set forth above, in order that the college shall suffer no prejudice. His tenure shall last until the time ordained by these statutes for the election of a rector. For it is our will that the election shall always take place on the first of May, whether it concern the incumbent or another. And an election held contrary to the above regulations shall ipso iure be null and void. We add that the aforesaid lords, the Lords Archbishop and Gomez, jointly or severally, may punish, correct, and discipline the rectors, both those appointed by them and those elected by the college, if they fail in the duties of their office; and if there is a just cause to do so, they may deprive the rectors of their office if this should appear to these two lords, jointly or severally, to be to the advantage of the college. It is our will that, once the rector has been punished by one of them, he may not be punished by the other for the same offence. The rector shall be mature in character, efficient in practical matters, zealous in his direction and administration in such a way that, as he excels all others in honor, so also shall he surpass them in his virtues. He may attend courses in theology or canon law or not attend, according to his own free choice, provided that he perform his office well, scrupulously, and faithfully. And in order that he be not overburdened by the many cares that he must bear in connection with his office, it is our will that he may entrust to others from the college and also to the chaplains some of the business to be transacted and that they shall be required to obey him absolutely.

TWENTY-SECOND STATUTE.

As a steward is required to render an account of his stewardship, so we decree that every year the rector and his councilors shall be required to render an account and a complete financial statement of all the income and expenditures, as well as of their management and administration, twice a year, namely on the Feast of All Saints [November 1], to two syndics who shall be especially appointed, either from the college corporation or from outside, to audit their accounts. And at the end of their office they shall be required to present a report and a full account to the new rector, the new councilors, and the two syndics, who shall be elected by the college. Both those who are to render these accounts and those who are to receive them shall be required to receive and render them within a month, to be reckoned from the day on which their term of office shall be completed, this under the penalty of perjury and of the privation for one year of the subsidy which they have received or are to receive. It is our will that those, either jointly or severally, who should have given and received these accounts, shall incur such penalties ipso facto. And they shall nevertheless be required by the person under whose authority the college shall be placed to comply with the aforementioned regulations. After the aforementioned syndics shall have carefully audited these accounts in the presence of the college, both on the first and the second date, they shall

But on the second date, when the accounts of the whole year shall be considered, if the persons whose accounts are examined are found to have performed their office well and faithfully, rendered a full accounting, and paid over the balance of the college funds, they shall be acquitted without any difficulty by the college or by the majority of its members, unless someone from the college should bring forward a computing error or some other just cause to prevent the rector from being cleared. In this case, it is our will that the person under whose authority the college shall be placed must be called in and that, having heard the arguments on both sides, he shall, with the help of justice, declare that the acquittance of the rector is to be pronounced, delayed, or denied. But if any deceit should be discovered, or fraud, or notable carelessness, the offenders shall incur the penalties specified in the statutes and shall, in addition, be more severely punished by the college itself. When inflicting punishment upon the rector, however, the college shall be required to seek and follow the advice of the person under whose authority it shall be placed. The accounting and administration of all the other officials and of all those who administer any college property shall be seen and audited by the rector and the councilors, who shall always give acquittance and approval as has been indicated above.

N o one cxcept the brother or the relative of a member of the college shall be allowed to come in to visit him, nor is this permitted anyone except for some just and reasonable cause, which we leave to the judgment of the rector and lay upon his conscience. When the rector's permission has first been asked and granted, any one may keep such a relative, if he is also an honorable person, for the midday and the evening meals and for the night, but only for three days and nights, provided that they shall eat in the room of the host and at his expense. We allow no one but the rector to have a guest at the expense of the college and in the common dining hall. The rector may, at the expense of the college, entertain at dinner in the common refectory the master or even the bachelor who holds the chair of theology, each with a companion, or the doctor responsible for any scholar of the college, also with a companion, when this scholar is up for an examination or is taking the doctorate. He may also invite other honorable persons, in so far as it seems to him to the advantage and honor of the college, and this we lay upon his conscience. If any member of the said college, or also a chaplain, should receive the doctor's degree, he may at his own expense invite as many guests as he wishes on that day in the common refectory. If it seems suitable to him, the rector may allow him up to one measure of bread and up to two measures of wine and no more. The farmhands and other workers who labor in the service of the college we do not wish to be included in this prohibition in any way, since there is no doubt about the obligation for the college to have their board provided for at its expense.

And, likewise, whenever the college happens to go to hear a sermon or to a meeting anywhere outside the house, the rector and the councilors shall provide otherwise for the watch to be kept, as appears to them expedient. They shall, however, carefully guard against any harm befalling the college as a result of their failure to have the watch kept, for which they must know that they shall be held responsible. It is also our will that, if any of the scholars, chaplains, or servants of the said house should stealthily pilfer bread, wine, or meat belonging to the college, or anything belonging to any of the fellows, or should agree to this being done, or should advise or encourage such a deed, or have knowledge of it without reporting the thief to the rector, he and all others shall ipso facto forfeit their subsidy for one year, beyond the fine which the principal thief shall be required to pay to the injured party. And if the same thief should meanwhile be detected in a like offence, stealing from the college, he shall be expelled forthwith. And if the thing stolen the first time should exceed the value of fifteen Bologna pounds, he shall forfeit all the rights he has in the college, beyond the penalty of perjury which he shall incur ipso facto; and after he has made satisfaction for the thing stolen he shall, notwithstanding, be expelled forthwith from the college. In this case, we ordain that the procedure be observed which is found, on a similar matter, in the eighteenth statute above.

And when they are, the rector and the aforesaid councilors shall be most careful that, when the necessary business has been dealt with, these shall be placed back as speedily and as quickly as possible. They shall be replaced in the said chest carefully and with diligence, under the penalty of the privation of half their subsidy for one year, which they shall incur ipso facto, lest something should be lost on account of negligence. And the legal instruments which may be lost in spite of this shall, if they can not be restored from the protocol, be copied from the registers of the commune of Bologna at their own expense and deposited in the proper place. Likewise, it is our will that, in addition, a book shall be made of parchment in which all the privileges, legal instruments, and authentic documents of the said college shall be registered word for word, that it shall be chained with the other books in the book cupboard, so that recourse may be had to such a register to clear up doubts if any should arise concerning the aforesaid matters and so that anyone from the college may be fully informed of all his rights. Likewise the seals of the said college shall always be kept in the said chest; and all shall take careful heed that no letter shall be inconsiderately and unadvisably sealed with the college seal, since this might result in future harm to the college. No letter shall ever be sealed with the college seal unless it shall first have been read in the presence of the college and its being sealed shall have been approved by the majority of the college. And the rector with the councilors, or the majority of them, shall sign their names at the end of these letters, unless they happen to be letters which they are obliged by these statutes to send; for the rector with the councilors, or the majority of them, shall have the power to send such letters even if the whole college should oppose them; or again, if they be letters

These inventories shall be kept in the aforesaid chest with the other legal instruments; they shall, along with these inventories, be made over singly to the new rectors at the beginning of their term of office. And the said inventories shall be read through in the presence of the members of the college, in order, three times a year." At that time, all the things recently held or acquired shall be recorded separately and those that shall have been used up or lost shall likewise be recorded separately in the form of an official document. The persons through whose carelessness or deceit anything has been lost shall be required to make full restitution or to pay a fine according to the rule specified in other statutes above.

The rector and the councilors shall be required to make the aforesaid inventories under the obligation of their oath.

Likewise, since, considering the pious works of this college, we hope that its resources will increase by the help of God, we ordain and decree that whatever balance from the income of the said college is left, after all the necessary expenditures have been defrayed, shall accrue to the treasury of the said college. This sum shall be kept faithfully in the common chest, of which mention has been made above, until such time as it reaches a total of two thousand ducats. Then, after the college has been informed of this, some useful property shall be bought on behalf of the said house by the rector and the councilors toward those pious works which shall be specified below; or vestments shall be bought, books, and other things necessary for the chapel; or other books for the book cupboard, and anything else needed by the college; or the buildings of the college, its houses and properties shall be repaired; or, if it should be expedient, they shall be rebuilt. All the aforementioned may be done before the said sum has accumulated, whenever this seems expedient to the rector and the

If however the goods, income, and proceeds of the said college should increase to such an extent that it is amply sufficient for more scholars, and, since, on account of the lack of rooms, more scholars cannot conveniently be residents of the college, we ordain and decree that half of the portion of food and drink which is given to those who reside in the college shall be distributed to poor scholars from Spain studying in the studium of Bologna in any of the faculties allowed, this as alms on behalf of the soul of the said Lord Cardinal of Sabina and of his kin. In this almsgiving, preference over all other Spaniards shall be given to those from the Kingdom of the Most Serene Lord, our lord the King of Castile and Leon; and after them to those from the Kingdom of the Lord King of Aragon; then to the Portuguese, after whom shall come those from Navarre. But if no such scholars are to be found at Bologna, this alms shall be given to other poor scholars and particularly to Italians, among whom it is well known that the said Lord Cardinal received many honors and useful benefits. And if there should be no poor scholars, this alms on behalf of the salvation of the souls of the said Lord Cardinal and of his kin shall be given to hospitals, monasteries, and to honorable members of religious orders, and toward other pious works, according as shall seem the best course to him under whom we shall place the college and to the rector and councilors; it being first specified that those who are members of the college corporation shall on no account be cheated, because of the said alms, of what they must receive according to the disposition of these statutes. Since the rector and councilors might, under this pretext, favor their friends and kinsmen, such alms shall on no account be dispensed to such

But if any doubt or difficulty should arise as to whether the college is prosperous enough for this, or about what has been mentioned above, or any part of it, or about the administration of the property of the said college, it is our will that such difficulties shall be settled by the person under whom we shall place the college and by any man of the blood of the said Lord Cardinal of Sabina who shall at the time be engaged in study at Bologna. And if there should be no one of his blood in Bologna at the time, the two doctors actually engaged in teaching canon law who have been teaching longest shall have this power in his place; and they, together with the man under whom we shall place the college, shall have the power to clarify what is doubtful.

And when anyone in the college is skilled at lecturing or wishes to lecture pro forma, of for practice, even if he be less competent than some one from outside, no one from outside the college shall be allowed to lecture in competition with a member of the college or to lecture at the same hour as a member of the college in such a way as to detract from his dignity or to interfere in any

But if, on account of incompetence among the members of the college, some person from outside should be chosen for some lectureship, before he is allowed to lecture, he shall swear by the Holy Gospels of God in the presence of the rector and of the majority of the college that, to the utmost of his ability, he shall always consider the advantage and honor of the college and that he shall not retain the master's chair longer than shall be acceptable to the college. An authentic writing of this oath shall be made if this appears advisable to the rector and the councilors. Likewise it is our will that no one from the college shall lecture pro forma outside the college, since no honor can result from this to the college. Likewise, when a master or bachelor from the college shall be a regent doctor," the scholars, theologians, and artists shall be required to assemble for collation and to accompany him when he goes to debates and to other public functions, which are to be held by other bachelors and masters in the studium.

And those who disobey or offend in this mat-

ter shall be punished and disciplined by the rector, according to the report of the master or of the bachelor himself, unless he should deviate from the truth out of some personal grudge. And because such masters and bachelors and those who are occupied with lectures and other scholarly pursuits are much fatigued by these, it is our will that, as far as he can do so conveniently, the rector shall free them from the ceremonies and other cares and responsibilities which might distract them from study. Likewise, in order that these same theological scholars shall acquire both method and confidence in setting forth the word of God, it is our will that, after they have studied theology for four years, they shall, on Sundays and on solemn feasts, at an early hour, expound the word of God

Likewise, since according to the saying of the sage "the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom" (Eccles. 1:16) and wisdom shall not enter an evil soul nor dwell in the body of one subjected to sin, we ordain and decree that every one of the aforesaid chaplains and scholars shall devoutly confess all his sins at least twice a year to the rector of the parish of the said house or to some other competent priest.58 They shall do this according to the prescriptions of the Church, that is at the beginning of the schools and in Lent, and more often if they wish, according as the Lord shall choose to inspire them. And, at least twice a year, on the Nativity and the Resurrection of the Lord, each one shall partake of the most Holy Body of the Lord. If they should be prevented by illness or some just cause from receiving the Body of Christ on these days, they shall be required to do so during the next days. And if the rector should suspect that some one may have done otherwise, the rector shall require him to bring proof by means of a statement from the priest who confessed him and gave him the said Body of the Lord, or by means of other competent and legally qualified witnesses. Whoever fails to go to confession twice, as is said above, or who, in the absence of some legitimate impediment, fails to receive the Body of our Lord, shall ipso facto forfeit his subsidy for the whole year the 58 Similar regulations are found in numerous college statutes, Rashdall, II, 90, n.

Likewise we ordain and decree that in the chapel of the said house anyone, be they clerics or laymen, may come to hear the Divine Offices, in addition to those who belong to the house, provided that no harm shall arise from this to anyone. And because woman is the head of sin, the devil's weapon, the expulsion from Paradise, and the corruption of the ancient law, and therefore all commerce with her should be shunned carefully, we expressly prohibit and forbid anyone, in any manner whatever, to dare to introduce any woman, however respectable, into the said college.59 And if anyone should do otherwise, he shall be severely punished by the rector, except if he should be visited by his mother, or sister, or by persons such that the natural kinship which binds them allows no suspicion of foul crime. These may be introduced by their kinsmen after the rector's permission has first been requested and received. They may be entertained for a short time, publicly, but may never spend the night, however close the relationship. Any one, therefore, whether he be the rector or some other person, who has kept any woman overnight in the said college, even if she should be his mother, sister, or another relative, however closely related, or anyone who shall have committed there a carnal sin with any woman, shall forfeit every right he had in the college and shall be expelled irrevoc-

It is our will that the selection of an hour for such debates, and the power to punish contrary, offensive, or disobedient students, shall rest in the rector's judgment. We urge the scholars and also the chaplains, in the name of the Lord, usefully to exert themselves in order to become strong in character, knowledge, and virtue; not to roam about the city, but to stay home and apply themselves diligently to their studies, for, according to Jerome, it is solitude, not the open street, that makes a cleric.

ordered in these statutes, expenditures in moderation be made from the money found in the treasury of the said house, as shall seem proper to the rector and the councilors. This may be done provided that it be not from the monies or goods which were left to the college as part of its inheritance, for it is our will that these be spent entirely on college holdings. I f the said treasury should not be sufficient, these expenditures, both ordinary and extraordinary, shall be curtailed for the time being, as much as can be done with propriety. But if all this should not prove sufficient, then the extraordinary expenses shall be cut first, in the second place the scholars' subsidies, in the third the salaries of the rector and councilors, of the doctor, and also of the servants and of the other officials, finally the money for everyone's clothes. I f even this should not be enough, the rector and the councilors shall be empowered lawfully to remove for a time from this community some of the less useful and less able scholars. This we lay upon their conscience, and they shall do it with the advice of the men under whose authority we shall place the college, to whom they shall give sufficient proof of the stinted revenues of the college. It is our will, and we command, that they shall be obeyed without dispute, this under the penalty of perjury.

Likewise, since we are firmly attached by a natural, divine, and positive bond to those whom we acknowledge as our benefactors and since even sacred buildings, which enjoy so many immunities are, because of such bonds, subject to laymen—for churches founded or endowed by laymen are considered by canon law to be subject to them by right of patronage; so also, since the house of Albornoz, namely that of the Lord Cardinal Egidio, who was the lily and the flower of the aforementioned house, did both of these things for this college, that is he founded and endowed it; therefore, we ordain and decree that this college shall be bound in perpetuity to the above-mentioned house and to the descendants of the said house, according to the rule which will be set forth below.

And if all the rooms should at the time be occupied by scholars, some of them shall double up in their rooms for the short time of his stay. And for the first three days, if he so wishes, the midday and the evening meals shall be provided for him and for five attendants, if he be a knight or a prelate, if he be a squire, for three attendants only, or if he be a cleric but not a prelate, according to the arrangements made for the other members of the college. I f he should have more servants or mounts, he shall keep them outside the college and shall pay for their expenditure out of his own funds. We ordain, under the same penalty of perjury, that the authorities shall not cause greater expense to the college on his account, nor keep a larger number of his dependents there, nor keep him more than five days. If, however, anyone of the houses outside the college, which belong to it and are in 'its neighborhood, should at the time be vacant and he should wish to use it for his horses or for his servants, he may do so and pay the college the customary rent, in proportion to the amount of time that he shall occupy the house. And we command the rector, councilors, and the whole college to treat him with all honor, humility, and due reverence. And, as long as he is present, they shall do nothing of importance in matters pertaining to the direction and government of the college without his advice, provided he be concerned in what is to the honor and advantage of the college and in no way in opposition to these our statutes.

And when one member of the said house of Albornoz is staying in the college according to the rule specified above, it shall on no account be required to entertain another member of the same house. But if some poor member of that house should be sent to the said college to study, with letters from the head of the house vouching for his poverty, and if there should be some vacant place in the college in any faculty, he shall be admitted to the vacant place without distinction as to the particular faculty in which there is a vacancy. And if there should be no vacant place, one such scholar shall be admitted and no more, even beyond the number provided for in this college. The student thus admitted shall, however, be under the authority of the rector directing the college, and he, like the others, shall observe the statutes in everything. He shall have no special privilege not enjoyed by the others, except that one servant shall be assigned to him at the expense of the college for his own private service, and he shall be allowed to attend any of the faculties allowed, among those attended by the other scholars. And both the rector and the scholars and others in the house shall show him proper respect, such as is right and suitable because of the reverence due to the blood of the said Lord Cardinal of Sabina. And when one such is already residing among the members of the said college, and another scholar, also poor, belonging to the same house, happens to be sent to this college, according as is stated above, he shall likewise be admitted, over and above the lawful number.

But if a descendant of the said house of Albornoz should be sent to the studium but should not wish to reside at the college, he must not then burden the college with any expense; except that, if he should wish to dwell near the college, he may be given for his own use and residence one of the three houses that are next to the college, and once belonged to the warden of the hostel, and are now let out to scholars who must pay rent. The rector and councilors shall do nothing of importance concerning the government of the house without his advice, and, if he should wish to be present in chapter when college business is transacted, he may attend and shall be admitted to all meetings, with his master if he is under twenty years old, so that he himself may learn, and his master may in his place give advice concerning the business. As long as he shall be under twenty, everything entrusted by the preceding and the following statutes to those of the blood of the Lord Cardinal of Sabina shall be dispatched in consultation with his tutor. But when he reaches twenty, he may act by himself and shall be admitted alone to the deliberations. If two or more from the said house should happen to be together at the studium at the same time, the one who arrived first shall hold these privileges as long as he is at the studium, unless the head of the house should write to the college that the second or third arrival should be given preference over the first, as if he had seniority in the said house.

Anyone may thereafter go out of the house with impunity. If, however, anyone from the aforesaid house should arrive at the college after the gate has been locked up, it shall on no account be opened for him without special permission from the rector; and for this he shall do penance the next day on bread and water, unless he may be lawfully excused for some just and reasonable cause, of which the rector must check the truthfulness. But if he should commit the same offense a second time, he shall do penance on bread and water for three days. If a third time, he shall forfeit his subsidy for a whole year. If in spite of these penalties he should not mend his ways at all, he shall be expelled irrevocably. If, however, some scholar or chaplain from our college should have spent the night out of the college without special permission from the rector, which he is forbidden to grant anyone without just and reasonable cause that we leave to his judgment, laying it upon his conscience, this scholar shall forfeit half of his yearly subsidy for the first offense, and he shall do penance on bread and water for three days. If, however, he should absent himself from the college for ten days without permission from the rector, he shall forfeit all the rights that he has in the college. I f he has been absent for less than ten days, he shall forfeit his subsidy for a whole year, and, in addition, he shall be punished according to the judgment of the rector. But if, after the gate has been locked, he should leave the house either through the window or by some other machination, he shall forfeit all the rights which he has in the college and shall be expelled irrevocably, beyond the penalty of perjury which he shall incur ipso facto.

And if his return should be delayed beyond the six months mentioned above, he shall forfeit his rights, as has been specified above. But if it should be necessary to send someone abroad to look after the business of the college, the absent member may then stay away as long as is necessary to complete the business; and the time during which he shall be occupied in the service of the college shall in no way be counted as part of the said eight years. And it is our will that the chaplains, since they are needed daily for the Divine Service in the chapel, shall not be granted such a permission to be released for six months, unless they see to it that in their place someone approved of by the rector and by the councilors shall attend to the Divine Service.

But all the others who are not priests shall be required to read through the seven penitential psalms once every week, with the litanies and all the prayers. If anyone, suffering from the vice of ingratitude, should fail to observe this salutary statute, he shall be punished according to the judgment of the rector, and he shall be absolutely required to say the prayers which he had omitted. Anyone questioned on this point shall be required to satisfy the rector, even under oath, that he has fulfilled his obligation to recite the said Psalter and, in the case mentioned above, the penitential psalms, and on all the other matters specified in the ninth statute above. And in order that they may the more easily fulfill the task of reciting these, we ordain and will that anyone who has taken orders or who has obtained some ecclesiastical benefice shall own his own breviary and shall say the Divine Office daily, as he is de jure required to do. All the others, who have not been ordained or who hold no ecclesiastical benefices, shall be required to say the Office of the Blessed Virgin every day. Those who offend in this matter shall be punished according to the judgment of the rector. They shall, however, be warned of this when they are sent for. It is, therefore, our will that a general and formal statement be drawn up, to be appended to these statutes, which shall contain the substance of what shall be principally required of the scholars, of what they should come supplied with, and of what the college will provide. This shall be forwarded to the prelates and chapters to whom pertains the presentation of scholars to this college.

They shall be steady in their studies, diligent and zealous in their attendance at lectures, repetitions, debates, sermons, and other scholastic functions, intensely eager to make progress, meek in their behavior. Their clothes shall be decent, and they shall not wear unsuitable robes and garments or shoes with pointed toes,*5 under the penalty of one anconilanus" for each infraction, which they shall incur ipso facto and which shall be levied with no remission whatever. They shall dwell together quietly, bound to one another in charity and harmony. And those who look towards the doctor's degree in the course of time shall begin to practice before they teach. Let them be gentle in the face of abuse, adorned by their morals, humble and courteous to each other, if they wish to be exalted (Luke 14:11); and so he that is greatest among them, let him be as the younger, according to the counsel of the Gospel (Luke 22 :26) in order that, proficient alike in life and knowledge, they may be raised to worthy honors in this world and deserve to enjoy eternal rewards; and let them attempt to live within the limits and simplicity of early times.

They shall prize the standing of this house and keep it under their protection, both to preserve and to raise it, wherever they may be and in whatever position, particularly if it be one of distinction. And let those who shall have received the gift of knowledge through the grace of God and through alms, and who, because of their knowledge, shall have acquired worldly goods, express their gratitude to God by almsgiving and other works of piety. And when anyone sees or knows that one of his brethren, or fellows, or anyone belonging to the aforesaid house is guilty of evil conduct or falls into transgression, and in particular does not observe our statutes, he shall admonish him to correct and improve himself, charitably, in accordance with the teaching of the Gospel {Mat. 18 :15-17). And if the one so admonished fails to mend his ways, he shall be warned before two or three fellows. And if his amendment continues to be put off, the first one, moved by good intentions, shall , under the penalty of perjury which he shall incur ipso facto, denounce him to the rector who shall so correct and discipline the offender that the disease of vice shall not steal in by reason of lack of punishment and the infection of one diseased sheep shall not destroy the whole flock.

Nor shall they intervene in any of the affairs of the said college, except insofar as they are permitted to do so by these statutes. But since we have seen by experience that bishops of Bologna then in office seized possession for themselves of the property of colleges similar to this one, if any bishop should attempt anything of the kind against the property of this college, not only such as is immovable but also the movable goods, we command the rector, the councilors, and each one in the college, under the penalty of perjury and of the privation of his rights in the college, which they shall incur ipso facto, to set aside all delay and straightway to bring an action before our Lord Pope and before the Lord Cardinal under whose protection we shall in a later statute place this college. T w o of the most distinguished members of the whole college shall be in charge of this action, and they shall prosecute the affair to the end. And in order that this visitation shall not be hindered or delayed through forgetfulness or otherwise, we will and ordain that, when the visitation pertains to the Lord Bishop, the rector and the councilors shall, under the penalty of the privation of their subsidy for one year, which they shall forfeit ipso facto, request and ask the Lord Bishop for his visitation a few days before the beginning of the month of Septem-

We therefore decree that if any scholar of this said college, of any condition whatever, should say an insulting word to another scholar of the same college, either in or out of the house, in his presence; or should disparage him in his absence, whether this disparagement be insulting in itself or such that dishonor is likely to arise from it, he shall be punished according to the rector's judgment. It is our will that his judgment shall be based upon the advice of the councilors. And if the councilors disagreeing or holding contrary opinions should be evenly divided, the rector shall choose what shall seem to him the right and equitable solution. But in the case of an uneven number, he shall be required to follow the advice of the majority of the councilors. And in order that these judgments be rendered rightly, we decree that the said rector and councilors shall be bound in this matter by a special oath, which will be taken in the following terms: that, setting aside all hatred, favor, advantage, love, and rank and fearing God's judgment, they shall impose such penalties as they shall deem

And if one or several of the councilors called upon by the rector for this purpose should refuse to take part or, having taken part, should refuse to give counsel, another scholar or the same number of other scholars from this house shall be selected, according to the rector's judgment, to take his or their place. It is our will that these shall, in this matter, act in their place in everything. These councilors who contumaciously resisted in the manner just mentioned shall, nevertheless, be punished according to the following rule : for each case of contumacy they shall forfeit one Bologna pound from their salary. F O R T Y - F I R S T S T A T U T E . Of the penalty of those who say that they have heard something about someone from which dishonor may result and who do not disclose from whom they heard it.

And if any scholar should say that he has heard something about another scholar which may give rise to dishonor, he shall be required to disclose from whom he heard this and to prove it by one witness at least or by the confession of the person from whom he said that he heard it. If he should not do this, we decree that he must be punished exactly as if he had slandered on his own authority and had been the first to give expression to these words. Of the duty of establishing harmony among brawlers; and of the penalty to be imposed upon those who take the part of one of the brawlers. FORTY-SECOND STATUTE.

If two scholars should happen to be brawling either in or out of the college, it is our will that all those present shall, to the best of their ability, attempt to reconcile them.

And in addition he shall forfeit his subsidy for two months for the first offence, and for the second we declare that the above mentioned penalties shall be doubled.61 If he should become guilty of this a third time, he shall do penance by eating bread and water at the first meal for fifteen days, and he shall forfeit his subsidy for six months. Of the penalty to be imposed upon those who bear arms; and that the rector may authorize the bearing of arms in legitimate cases. FORTY-THIRD

STATUTE.

Scholars who bear defensive weapons, such as a coat of mail or a helmet, iron sleeves, or the like, even if the fact that they are so armed does not show because of some cover placed over these weapons, they shall as penance eat bread and water for three days at the first meal, which they shall consume on the ground and publicly. But if they carry offensive weapons, such as a short or a long sword, a dagger, and the like, they shall do penance as stated above by eating for " Rashdall, III, 363 : "Very curious is the minuteness with which in many university or college statutes a graduated scale of pecuniary penalties is adjusted to the various degrees of undergraduate enormity. Thus, in the statutes of the Collegium, minus at Leipzig, drawn up in 1438, we find a fine of 10 new groschen provided for the offense of lifting a stone or other missile with a view of throwing it at a master, but not actually throwing it. For throwing and missing, the mulct is increased to 8 florins, while a still higher penalty is provided for the more successful marksman. A later statute further distinguishes between 'hitting without wounding' and ' wounding without mutilation'." For the punishment of having to eat 'in terra,' sitting on the ground, see Coulton, Five Centuries of Religion, II, (Cambridge, 1927), 500.

virtue, at least for fear of penalty, we decree and command that if the rector himself (which God forbid) fails to observe these statutes or to cause them to be observed by others; or if he presumes to do anything contrary to the regulations of these statutes, or attempts to do so, or even gives his consent to it; or if he mismanages college properties, he shall straightway be admonished secretly by two of the senior scholars, in accordance with the true teaching of the Gospel, to put an end to what he has undertaken. If he should refuse, they shall admonish him in the presence of two chaplains or of other members of the college. If, scorning these admonitions, he fails to put an end to the actions thus undertaken, the aforementioned scholars shall be required to call upon some one of the visitators and humbly to urge him to cause the statutes to be observed. By Jesus Christ's bowels, we request this visitator to bring the rector to the observance of the statutes and, if he refuses, even to compel him by chiding and by punishing him. First, however, he shall investigate the truth of the charge against the rector. It is our will that the aforesaid scholars shall, under the obligation of their oath be compelled and required to observe the above, and the rector to obey the visitator and his commands. If, however, those who bring information before the visitator should fail to prove their charge, they shall forfeit their subsidy for one year, in addition to the penalty of perjury, which they shall incur ipso facto. General grace bestowed upon Fernando de Cordova and Tello de Galineros.

Likewise, because we believe it of the highest importance that one of the cardinals of the most Holy Roman Church keep the house and college under his own special care, we entrust, for as long as he shall be active among men, the protection and defence of the said House to the most reverend lord and father, the Lord Anglic," by the divine Providence Bishop of Albano and Cardinal of the Holy Roman Church; after him to the incumbent Spanish cardinal originating from the Kingdom of Castile, or if there should be no such Spaniard in the College of Cardinals at the time, to the incumbent Cardinal of Sabina, whoever he may be. We urgently beseech them, in regard for God's love, knowledge and for the memory

71 Anglicus Grimoard, Bishop of Avignon in 1362, Cardinal Priest of the title of San Pietro in Vincoli in 1366, Cardinal Bishop of Albano in 1367, Papal Legate in 1368, died in April 1388. He was the brother of Pope Urban V. In February, 1373, he was charged by Pope Gregory XI with the revision of the statutes of a monastic college in Montpellier, a task which he completed in 1382. In October, 1364, he had established the college of Saint-Ruf in Montpellier. See Fournier, op. cit. (note 18 of the Introduction) II no. 992, p. 104. See L. Mirot and H. Jassemin, Lettres secrètes et curiales du pape Grégoire XI (Paris, 1935), col. 934, no. 2854. On his career, see A. Ciacconius, Hist. Pont. Rom. Cardinalium, vol. II, col. 562. He had also been connected with the founding of the Gregorian College, Chart. Bon., II, no. CCXV (552), and the revision of the statutes of various other colleges, Reg. Vat. 265, f. 106b, etc.

of the said Cardinal of Sabina, to maintain, protect, and defend this college and in all things to deign to bestow upon it their gracious favors. The rectors, podestà and elders of Bologna are asked to protect the college from men of evil intent. SIXTIETH STATUTE.

Finally, since the said house, which shall perhaps have weak rulers, may in the course of time find itself in precarious circumstances if it is not sustained by the favor of powerful and good men, we call upon the rectors, podestà and elders of the city of Bologna. Thanks to their justice, praiseworthy government, and the gracious favors which they have ever paternally bestowed upon the students, this holy studium has, from the distant past, ranked first in the world among the schools of both branches of law. On account of all these reasons our aforesaid lord, the Lord Cardinal of Sabina, elected this city of Bologna for this, the work of his devotion. He trusted that, to show their reverence for God and their love of the said Lord Cardinal, the citizens of Bologna, who are much obligated to him would protect this his college from the treachery, violence, and oppression of evil men; for he delivered them from tyrannical slavery, defended their city most bravely by shedding his own blood in its defence, and did many other strenuous deeds of which they are all well aware; and that they would otherwise look upon it favorably

In the name of God, Amen. In the year of our Lord 1377, the fifteenth indiction, in the time of our most holy lord and father in Christ, Lord Gregory XI, Pope by the Divine Providence, on the twenty-fourth day of the month of November, the aforementioned Lord and Father in Christ, Lord Pedro, by the grace of God Bishop of Cuenca, Rector General and Spiritual of the March of Ancona on behalf of our Lord Pope and the Holy Roman Church, and specially commissioned and appointed to correct and reform the above-mentioned statutes by our most holy lord and father in Christ, the Lord Gregory XI, Pope by the Divine Providence, as appears clearly from the letter of commission found at the start of the volume containing these statutes. After carefully examining the preceding statutes, cutting down superfluous items, clarifying some that were ambiguous, adding and altering, the Lord Pedro corrected and reformed the above-mentioned statutes written by me, the notary whose name is subscribed. By the apostolic authority granted to him for this task, the Lord Pedro commands all members of the college mentioned above, and also the chaplains, officials, and any others whom the statutes affect, or may affect in the future, to make use of those statutes alone which are copied in this volume and of no others; to observe them inviolably, and in so far as each and every one of them shall be able, to cause them to be observed; and not to presume to make other statutes without special authority and licence from the

Daniel, Bishop of Concordia, by the grace of God treasurer of our most holy Lord the Pope, [rector] of the City of Bologna etc. on behalf of this same most holy lord and of the Roman Church, with the full power of a legate a latere : We naturally care for and revere harmony and union, because everything, however small, grows sufficiently and even more and increases, when these are present; but when they are withdrawn, the greatest and highest things sink and tumble down. We think that when harmony and union lead, everything that is under our government is handled with justice, excellence and piety. For this reason we wish and hope to destroy and to root out with all our might a feud which we understand to be growing on roots stronger day by day. This is between the rectors, namely the rector of the university of the students of arts and of medicine, and the rector of the college of our Lord of blessed memory, the Cardinal of Sabina, which college is generally known by the common name of College of Spain. We fear that in time, because of the one trifling matter, they may break into far worse actions and, neglecting their studies, may fight in a contest, not of virtue, not of character, but of vanity and human pretence. They do not strive by merit of their knowledge and piety as scholars, whereby some rectors

Would that they did strive to excel one another in application and learning not in vanity and pretence which are shadowy and transient; for in this way they would fulfil the expectation of their parents who drain their patrimony in order that their sons may give themselves over to the best skills and learning, not to feuds. We doubt not that it concerns us to take this under advisement. Therefore, having first investigated this matter for a long time in our own mind and with the best men, we decree and ordain as inviolable in perpetuity, that in meetings, processions and other functions of the schools, whenever the rectors shall gather together, the rectors of the students of law, of arts and of medicine shall walk together in such a way that they shall be distinguished and precede, in the first rank and in the position of highest honor; and we wish the rector of the college to follow and to be placed immediately after them, so that the rector of the college shall be in the first rank and in the position of highest honor after the above mentioned rectors, namely those of the students of law and of arts. Under the penalty of our wrath we command the rectors, and everyone else concerned, inviolably to observe, and to see to the observance of, this our ordinance and decree or statute, which is to last and to be valid in perpetuity; and to register it and have it registered in the volumes of statutes of these universities. In witness of their trustworthiness, we have ordered this our public letter to be confirmed by the muniment of our customary seal. Given at Bologna, in the apostolic palace, on the seventeenth day of the month of November, in the year one thousand four hundred and thirty six, the fourteenth indiction, in the sixth year of the pontificate of our most holy father in Christ and lord, the Lord Eugenius IV, Pope by the Divine Providence.

It is here provided that commemorative services be celebrated yearly on behalf of the soul of the Lord Pedro de Frias, Cardinal of Spain." STATUTE.

We are bound by the duty of gratitude to those from whom we have received generous benefits, and should not fall into the vice of ingratitude and deserve the judgment of the sage, who says in the Proverbs : "One ungrateful man does harm to all wretched men,"" and " I t is most of all the ungrateful who teach men to be spiteful,"" and in truth "the memory of benefits is frail but the memory of wrongs is strong;'" 7 and Seneca, in the first book of his Concerning Benefits78 says: "among our numerous and very great vices, none is more common than ingratitude;" likewise Quintilian in his twentyfourth Declamationn : "no distress is better justified than when we receive no benefit from our kindness." Wishing therefore to return something for the kindness received from the Lord Pedro de Frias of blessed memory, commonly called Cardinal of Spain, for he came to the greatest relief of the college when it was exceedingly impoverished by the payment of interest on money borrowed, and overwhelmed by other debts; and lest others should become spiteful as a result of our ingratitude, the rector and scholars of this college have decreed that every year on the last but one day of December at Mass, an anniversary be celebrated devoutly on behalf of his soul in the presence of the said rector and scholars and chaplains of the said college. This ordinance was decreed on the last day of December, in the year one thousand four hundred and twenty three from the Nativity of the Lord. For Pedro de Frias, see Introduction, footnote 101.
