vesperae.author.educationAdam of Marisco (Adam Marsh), “oppido Sommerseti, dioecesis Battonniensis in Anglia natus,” studied at Oxford, where he met Robert Grosseteste, who describes him as a “true friend and faithful counsellor.” If Adam started his studies under Grosseteste’s tutelage, he must have finished under another secular master lecturing at Oxford at that time, as Robert left for the bishopric of Lincoln in 1235. Adam incepted by 1243, a date corroborated by one of Grosseteste’s letters to William of Nottingham written in 1245, in which he insists Adam should not be left to take the chair of regent master in theology in Paris, a position previously occupied by Alexander of Hales.
