Peter Lombard (French: Pierre Lombard, Latin: Petrus Lombardus, c. 1100-1160) was a scholastic theologian and bishop of Paris whose Four Books of Sentences (Sententiarum libri IV) was the standard theological text of the Middle Ages. He taught in Paris c. 1134-1158.
The initial, shown here, from a very early thirteenth-century manuscript of his Great Gloss on St Paul, shows Peter Lombard as the bearded scholar writing with quill and knife.
