Alan (or Alain) Du Puy

(A lanus de Podio), who is probably the author of the work Opus Quadripartitum de fide Catholica. (See ALAN DE L'ISLE). No particulars of the life of this author are known. His surname points to Provence. Another work of his has been discovered during the present century at Avranches (see Ravaisson, Rapport sur les Bibliotheques de l' uest de la France, Paris, 1841, p. 157); and he is also supposed to be the author of a work dedicated to the Abbot Ermengaldus, of St. Gilles, and designated in the manuscript as Oculus, Oraculum Scripturce Sacre, AEquivoca, etc.
