  In addition, mention should be made of the possible role of the inquisitor of France, Simon du Val. On November 23, 1276 he had summoned three ex-scholars from Paris, now residing in Liège, to appear before his court “probably and gravely suspect of the crime of heresy” (de crimine heresis probabiliter et vehementer suspectos). They were Siger of Brabant, canon at Saint Paul’s, and Goswin of Chapelle and Bernier of Nivelles, canons at Saint Martin’s, all in Liège. At least one of them, Siger of Brabant, was also implicated in Tempier’s condemnation (see below). Although there is no firm textual evidence, it is tempting to speculate that the inquisitor’s dossier concerning these three arts masters was known to Bishop Tempier.
