of the order of hermits of St. Augustine, and doctor of Paris, was made general of his order in 1377. In the following year he was created cardinal- priest of Santa Cecilia. He was assassinated at Rome by Francesco Carrara, the lord of Padua; the year of his death is, however, variously stated as 1385, 1388, 1389, 1396, and 1398. The Speculum B. Virginis Marice (Augsburg, 1476) is attributed to him, as are a Commentary on the Sentences, some Meditations on the Life of Christ, etc. See Dupil, 2, 533.
