About Remigio dei Girolami
Lived 1235 – 1319 (aged 83–84). Remigio dei Girolami was a friar and scholar.
Remigio dei Girolami (1235–1319) was an Italian Dominican theologian. He was an early pupil of Thomas Aquinas.
His Tractatus de bono communi of 1302 is a significant work of political thought. Remigio was able to adapt the political thought of Aquinas, which emphasized monarchy, to the communal regimes of Italy.
Two of his works, the Divisio scientie and Contra falsos ecclesie professores, discuss music. He thought the church represented all human sciences, including the musical sciences that formed part of the quadrivium. The musical element (modulatio) of these sciences referred to liturgical chants, preaching, and church order.
