PAUL OF VENICE, OESA (Paulus Nicolettus Venetus) b. Udine, 1369/72; d. Padua, 1429. Italian philosopher and theologian. From 1390 studied philosophy, logic, and theology at Oxford, where influenced by Averroists, Ockhamists and earlier Augustinians (particularly Gregory of Rimini). Later visited Paris, where probably knew Pierre d'Ailly. In 1395 returned to Italy.
It should be pointed out that Gregory of Rimini lived between c. 1300-1358, whereas Paul of Venice went to Oxford in 1390. From that it seems likely that Paul of Venice may have studied under one of Gregory's disciples rather than Gregory himself.
