Bartolomeo Pisano or Bartolomeo da San Concordio entered the Dominican Order in 1277. He studied at Bologna and Paris, and was lector logicae in several convents before returning to Pisa around 1330, where he remained until his death. He was renowned as a preacher, a poet in Latin and Italian, and a teacher in canon and civil law. His most influential work, and the most popular, was the Summa de casibus, an alphabetically arranged digest of moral guidance and canon law, which was used throughout the 14th and 15th centuries. Several editions were printed in the 15th century, the earliest in Italy in 1473 (GW 33450, IGI 1267).
