Biography/Description |
William was an Englishman whose career illustrated the links between the academic, judicial, diplomatic, and administrative worlds of his day. Under his patronage the first surviving court reports of the Rota (the pope’s own audience court where Bateman served as judge) were written by his protégé Thomas Fastolf (Decisiones novae, antiquae et antiquiores). |
