Resum

Codicological evidence for revising the traditional dates associated with Gilbertus Anglicus's life and writing. The study dates Gilbert's life and scholarly activity later than has previously surmised (in the middle decades of the 13th century and not in the early part of the century) and explores the relationship of his writings to the arts and medical faculties of Paris and Montpellier. There is no firm evidence that he studied at Salerno, though his training at either Montpellier or Paris now seems certain. The Compendium medicine was written in the 1250s, perhaps late in the decade (and not ca. 1240). This article adds an additional 10 items to the list of 27 Latin MSS referred to here.
