Ioannes Petrus Surdus (Giovanni Pietro Sordi; Casale Monferrato, c. 1528–1598), jurist and senator, was president of the Senate of Mantua and one of the most renowned jurists of his time. His works—the Consilia, the Decisiones of the Senate of Mantua, and the Tractatus de alimentis—were widely disseminated in Europe, with numerous editions between the late 16th and mid-17th centuries. The Consiliorum sive Responsorum, a collection of legal opinions and responses on matters of civil, criminal, and canon law, constitutes his most cited work in legal practice. The first three books belong to the first German edition, by the heirs of Andreas Wechel, Frankfurt, 1599, corrected and improved upon the earlier Venetian edition. Liber Quartus belongs to a Venetian edition by Giovanni Guerílio, 1610. Complete set of four books in four volumes. ⚑ Auto-translated via Google Translate
