Life

After completing his basic training, he studied in Paris (from 1322/23 to 1328/29). He worked as a lecturer in Bologna (attested in 1332, 1333, 1337), presumably in Padua, in Perugia and probably came to Paris between 1340 and 1342, where he worked out his sentence commentaries and probably presented them in 1343/44. In 1345 he acquired the degree of theological master's degree. In 1346 he was in Rimini, from 1347 in Padua until 1351, after which the Basel General Chapter sent him to the newly established study center in Rimini. In 1357 he became General of the Augustinian Order as the successor to Thomas of Strasbourg .

His philosophical-theological works combine ideas of Wilhelm von Ockham and Petrus' aureoli . In addition to his main work, the sentence commentary, Gregor wrote written comments and letters as a general of the order as well as several treatises, including De usura and as an extract from the sentence commentary De intensione et remissione formarum corporalium .
