2 Peter of Aillyl wrote his Concepts and Insolubles, according to
the best 3 estimate, in 1372. He was at that time only about
twenty-two years old. He was born around 1350" in Compiegne in the
De de France, although his 5 family name associates him with the
village of Ailly in Picardy. In 1364 he entered the University of
Paris as a 'bursar' (i. e., the recipient of a scholarship) at the
College de Navarre. He received the degree of Bachelor of Arts in
1367 and taught there until 1368, when he entered the Faculty of
Theology. He became a Doctor of Theology in 1381. In the years that
followed, Peter was very active in the 'conciliar' movement and in
negotiations to bring about the end of the Great Schism of the
West. He was elevated to the rank of Cardinal in 1411 by Pope John
XXIII, the successor of Alexander V in the 'Pisa' line of Popes. He
took an active part in the Council of Constance (1414-1418), which
ended the Great Schism and elected Pope Martin V. Peter died on
August 9, 1420. Most of the secondary literature on Peter of Ailly
concerns his role in church politics, his writings on the Schism
and on ecclesiastical reform, and various aspects of his theology.
But Peter was active in a number of other areas as well. He wrote
several works, for instance, on geography and astron 6 omy,
including an Imago mundi read by Christopher Columbus."
