Abstract

This work aims to analyse the vices of students and teachers of the medieval University. A wide variety of sources have been employed, primarily the omiletic ones, in the form of sermones ad status, and others that have originated in a laic environment. Among the authors of sermons Jacques de Vitry, Humbert de Romans, Guibert de Tournai, Luca Lettore and Federico Visconti have been chosen for this comparison. The whole analysis has had as a result the outlining of a badly concealed aversion toward the excesses in vices that are present in scholars and professors during the medieval times. It is possible to find substantial homogeneity among all the authors analysed on the subject of medieval student’s behaviour.
