Abstract: Although Lotharius of Cremona taught Roman law at Bologna in the last two decades of the twelfth and the early thirteenth century, following a career that did not normally lead to advancement in the Church, he became bishop of Vercelli in 1205 and was elected archbishop of Pisa sometime before December 1208. 1 He is one of the few exceptions to the rule that civilians did not become bishops. 2
