Alessandro Tartagni , Latinized as Alexander de Tartagnis and also known as Alessandro da Imola ( Imola , 1424 – 1477 ), was an Italian jurist , nicknamed in his time doctor aureus and doctor veritatis .
He studied philosophy and law at the University of Bologna , where he was perhaps a student of Paolo di Castro . He began his academic career teaching civil law at the universities of Pavia , Padua , Ferrara and Bologna.
Among his students was Bulgarino Bulgarini and he entered into relations with famous jurists such as Giason del Maino and Bartolomeo Socino . Tartagni obtained Bolognese citizenship from Cardinal Bessarione and was elected magistrate in the same city.
Considered the last of the scholastic current, he commented on the Digest and the Justinian Code , publishing a series of Consilia in seven volumes, containing opinions on civil and canon law . Many editions of the work are known, published in Venice and Lyon .
He also published a commentary on the works of the eminent jurist Bartolo da Sassoferrato .
