Pietro de' Crescenzi ( 1230/35 – c. 1320), (ラテン語:'Petrus de Crescentiis'), was a Bolognese jurist,〔Robert G. Calkins, "Piero de' Crescenzi and the Medieval Garden", in ''Medieval Gardens'', ed. Elisabeth B. MacDougall, Dumbarton Oaks, 1986: 155–173. (Selected pages at Google Books )〕 now remembered for his writings on horticulture and agriculture, the ''Ruralia commoda''. There are many variant spellings of his name.〔Petrus de Crescentius, Petrus Crescentiensis, Peter de Crescentiis, Pietro dei Crescenzi, Pietro de Crescenzi, Pietro de Crescenzi, Pier de' Crescenzi, Pier de Crescenzi, Pier Crescenzi, Piero Crescientio, Piero de Crescenzi, Piero de' Crescenzi.〕 ==Life== Pietro de' Crescenzi was born in Bologna in about 1235; the only evidence for his date of birth is the annotation "septuagenarian" in the ''Ruralia commoda'', dated with some certainty between 1304 and 1309. He was educated at the University of Bologna in logic, medicine, the natural sciences and law, but did not take his doctorate. Crescenzi practiced as a lawyer and judge from about 1269 until 1299, travelling widely in Italy in the course of his work. In January 1274 he married Geraldina de' Castagnoli, with whom he had at least five children. She died in or shortly after December 1287. In January 1289 he married Antonia de' Nascentori, with whom he also had several children.〔 After his retirement in 1298 he divided his time between Bologna and his country estate, the Villa dell'Olmo outside the walls of Bologna. During this time he wrote the ''Ruralia commoda'', an agricultural treatise based largely on classical and medieval sources, as well as his own experience as a landowner.〔Pierre Toubert (1984). (Crescenzi, Pietro de' ) (in Italian). ''Dizionario Biografico degli Italiani'', Volume 30. Rome: Istituto dell'Enciclopedia Italiana. Accessed October 2013.〕 It is not known when de' Crescenzi died. His last will is dated 23 June 1320; a legal document dated 25 February 1321 describes him as dead, at the age of almost ninety.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pietro de' Crescenzi」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
