    • found: Catholic encyclopedia, via New Advent website, May 17, 2017(under Hugh of Strasburg: "He is now considered to be the author of ... Compendium theologiae or Compendium theologicae veritatis, which, on account of its scope and style, as well as its practical arrangement, was for 400 years used as a text-book ... The work consists of seven books which treat of the Creation, the Fall, the Incarnation, Grace, the Sacraments, and the Last Four Things. In the entire medieval literature there is probably no work whose composition has, till very recently, been attributed to so many different authors. The incunabula of Venice, Lyons, Strasburg, Ulm, and Nuremberg ... are without the author's name. Some attribute it to the Dominican Ulrich of Strasburg ...Thomas Dorinberg, who supplied the edition of 1473 with an index, was for a long time looked upon as the author; others attributed it to St. Thomas Aquinas. In the ... edition of Lyons (1557) ... it is credited to the Dominican Albert the Great and is placed in the folio edition of the latter's works published at Lyons (1651). Again, some held St. Bonaventure to be its author, with the result that [it] found a place in the appendix of the eighth volume of his works (Rome, 1588-96). Among other great theologians to whom it was ascribed are Hugh of Saint Cher, Alexander of Hales, Aureolus, the Oxford Dominican Thomas Sutton, Peter of Tarantasia and others. Recent investigations go to show, however, that [it] cannot be the work of any of these, but was most probably, if not certainly, written by Hugh of Strasburg") - http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/07523a.htm
