[Pavia: Printer of Butigella], also recorded as [Franciscus Girardengus] Joannis de Sidriano (or Sedriano) introduced printing to Pavia with Lectura super Institutionum libb IV, a work printed on the 30 October 1473 (See BMC VII: lvi-ii). Franciscus Girardengus makes his first appearance on the 15 October 1480 with an Aquinas, Interpretatio in Metaphysicam. Sometime after May 1484, Girardengus moved to Venice, and from then on plied his trade back and forth, as an example: a Pontanus edition dated the 5 March 1484 from Pavia. He was still alive in 1504, the year a medal was struck in his honor (See BMC VII: lviii, fn 4). IGI assigns to Girardengus and 1494. (See ISTC entry).

Abstract
Jason de Mayno was a celebrated professor of law at the universities of Pavia and Pisa, and was referred to (according to the Catholic Encyclopedia) as 'the Magnificent'. He also wrote on other aspects of Roman law; and an oration on Pope Alexander VI (1431-1503). This work contains an imprecise reference to lands in the Atlantic (America) although it was delivered before the return of Columbus.
