Accursius (in Italian Accursio, Accorso or also Accorso di Bagnolo; c. 1182-1263) was a Roman jurist. He is notable for his organization of the glosses, the medieval comments on Justinian's codification of Roman law, the Corpus Juris Civilis. He was not proficient in the classics, but he was called "the Idol of the Jurisconsults".
Antonio Persio (1542-1597) was an Italian philosopher, theologian and jurist.
Antoine Leconte (Antonio Conti)(1517-1586) was a French jurist, famous for his attacks on Calvin.
Iustinianus Augustus (Justinian I, 482-565), sometimes known as Justinian the Great, was a Byzantine (East Roman) emperor from 527 to 565. During his reign, Justinian sought to revive the empire's greatness and reconquer the lost western half of the historical Roman Empire.
