  Glossator - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The scholars of the 11th and 12th century legal schools in Italy, France and Germany are identified as glossators in a specific sense.
For their work they used a method of study unknown to the Romans themselves, insisting that contradictions in the legal material were only apparent.
In the Greek language, "γλώσσα" (glossa) means "tongue" or "language." The glossators used to write in the indent of the old texts or between the lines (interlinear glosses).

 Monslibrorum House Rules on Books
Thus, a work prepared for superior illumination and six normal glossators would be twice the normal size, while one prepared for similar illumination and illuminated glosses would be two and a quarter times the normal size.
In order to gloss a text, the glossator must have a score equal to or greater than the book in its area of study.
If the glossator's score was not gained purely from the book, and it is now higher than the book's score, she may immediately proceed to write the glosses, as long as she has spent at least one season studying from the text in question.

A, T-Tolos (186r-195v): Several glossators: (1) a coarse hand mentioning the date 1429 (188v), and sometimes writing in ?Spanish; (2) a fine ?contemporary hand, mostly with theory; (3) a 14th c.
Gr, Cb (1r-36v): At least three glossators: (c), contemporary as usual; this kind of hand has made notes about AD 1330-33, and on Freiburg, on p.86v.
A few instances are registered where glossators take account of each other; another such is 131v, where, however, the hands could be the same.

There was, of course, a limit to the method and practice of the Glossator, and by the late Thirteenth Century, stagnation in general terms had occurred.
It is not with great surprise that one finds the emergence of a new perspective, in the form of the Commentary, which was the manifestation of the force of medieval philosophy which contained many noteworthy components.
The emergence of the Commentator, or Post-Glossator marked the beginning of a genuine blending of ancient philosophy tailored to current conditions, and the development of new forms of logical analysis propagated in the Universities of Paris and Bologna.

The creation of the Bolognese school of Glossators, and the University of Bologna is essentially credited to Irnerius, the first great legal teacher of the Middle Ages(14).
The merit of the school of Irnerius was to have revived the study of the law of Justinian in place of the law of the _Lex Romana Visigothorum_, which had been the main secular source of Roman law in the early Middle Ages.
The aim of the Glossators was to establish reliable texts and then to analyze and catalogue their contents.

For example, the glossator explains that the phrase Primo dierum omnium (f.
5r) as “primo die en el primero dia omnium dierum en todos los dias.” As such, the glossator provides a primer to the liturgical songs so that the reader may gain a proper understanding of the Latin hymns when he or she recites the verses privately or communally during the Divine Office.
Pairing Latin and vernacular as a means of translation was not an uncommon practice during the later Middle Ages.

 The New Arcadia Review :: Articles :: Solicitous Mothers and Gender-Bending Sons
In the hands of the Liber Catonianus glossator, the Achilleid is presented as illustrating themes that have a decidedly Christian resonance.
As the accessus bluntly puts it, “moralitas enim concistit in solicitudine matris erga filium et in obediencia filii erga matrem” (the moral of the story consists in the solicitude of a mother for her son and in the obedience of a son to his mother).
What the glossator sees as Thetis’s “solicitude” seems motivated mainly by resentment at her past treatment, especially her divinely sanctioned rape by Peleus; she will not stand for the gods to take one more thing from her.

At the beginning of Cb167, a hand which may be the usual glossator's hand has made a reference to the insert.

One reason to account for this is the fact that instead of advocating reform of the church in a confrontational manner, she often deflects it by recourse to God's voice.
The voice that speaks in Scivias is more often than not the 1st person voice of God, and the persona of Hildegard the receptor of the visions occupies technically the position of a third person glossator and observer.
Another reason to account for her special status as a medieval mystic is the absence of any so-called phenomenon of stigmata, trance-like swoonings, fleshly ecstasies like those of Margery Kempe or Teresa D'Avila.

This manuscript, not only because of the glosses that are attributed to Wulfstan, but also because of its relative completeness, has been selected as the base text.
Unlike previous editors, however, I have not taken the markings of a fifteenth century glossator as indicative of Wulfstan's original intentions -- I have left the text as is. I have also attempted to reconstruct two erasures, which are noted in the apparatus, along with more detailed notes.
The critical text is set up so that the line numbers link to notes on that line and following; at every five line interval is the opportunity to link to the apparatus.

 Textual Deference: The Role of Commentaries
Legal commentaries are themselves a means of fixing the correct (`orthodox') interpretation of the sentences of a legal code, sentences which must of necessity be formulated by means of general terms whose concrete application to specific cases is not capable of being fixed a priori by the legislator.
The job of the glossator or commentator is, therefore, that of trying to establish the `dominant opinion' among the authorities originally the `communis opinio doctorum' as to the correct interpretation of paragraphs of the code that have been exposed as problematic.
And there are of course also philological commentaries, a genre that originated with the Alexandrians at a time when there is, as Geffcken puts it, a `veritable commentary-atmosphere abroad'.

 Healey: Old English Glossaries: Creating a Vernacular
And as if this catalogue of worries did not suffice, one can add to it the not always happy necessity of acquainting oneself not only with the habits and idiosyncrasies of individual glossators, but also with those of the scholars who have edited and interpreted their work (McDougall & McDougall 1992: 118).
One might also add for this particular glossary that the application of reagents by earlier scholars and the subsequent staining of the manuscript (Pheifer 1974: xxii) have impeded rather than aided present scholarly endeavors.
To test the range of the vocabulary in Épinal, I looked at all its Old English glosses, beginning with the letter A, a letter of average length in the Old English alphabet, with about 1500 headwords.

But I am fairly certain that the Italian "glossatori" you mention is essentially the same word as the English "glossator," meaning a person who writes commentaries on law.
When "glossa" entered Latin, it was with the sense of "a foreign word needing explanation," and eventually "glossa" came to mean the explanation itself.
This root meaning of "an explanation for a word" underlies our modern meaning of "gloss," and has given us "glossary" (a list of terms along with their definitions) and similar terms such as "glossator" (one who writes a glossary or commentary).
