Alfonso IX

Panormitanus

Panormitanus (1386–1445), canonist. Nicolò de’ Tudeschi became Abp. of Palermo (hence Panormitanus) in 1435. In 1433 he had been sent to the Council of Basle by Eugenius IV as his representative, but in 1436 he returned as the ambassador of Alfonso of Aragon, who was a contender for the throne of Naples against a nominee of Eugenius; consequently he usually supported the antipope and maintained that the Pope was inferior to a General Council. His main writings were on canon law; they included commentaries on the Decretals of Gregory IX, on the Sext, and on the Clementines.
