- Resum
- It is convenient, if overly schematic, to view the development of the medieval medical faculty at Montpellier in terms of generations, each represented by a writer or writers: an unsophisticated first generation, in which glosses on standard texts become commentaries (i.e., Henry of Winchester, ca. 1220); a second generation in which the comment- ary form blossoms (i.e., Cardinalis, ca. 1250); a third generation in which authors begin to compose independent medical treatises (Arnau de Vilanova and Bernard de Gordon, ca. 1300); and even perhaps a fourth and a fifth generation in the fourteenth century in which learning and scholastic elaboration attain new heights (Gérard de Solo, ca. 1330, and Joan de Tornamira, ca. 1370). Of these five generations, the third has received the most attention from historians because of the unusual number of compositions left by Arnau and Bernard. So prolific were these two authors, in fact, that it becomes all too easy to concentrate on their work and to forget their lesser-known contemporaries who may also be able to add to our knowledge of university life. At least three other figures from the medical school in this 'third generation' left behind medical works that illuminate their thought: Pierre de Capestang, Bernard de Angrara, and Guillem de Béziers, the figure who will concern us here.1 Guillem is of particular interest first because he moved away from the commentary frame- work when he composed for his students his unpublished Informatio scolaribus suis (which appears in an edition below); second, because recent research in the Catalan archives—some results of which are appended to this article—provides details about Guillem's early career that place his achievement in a better biographical context.
