Bologna B. participated in a public debate with a determined opponent of astrology, Giovanni da Schio Vicenza (? - 1260). He was appointed court astrologer with Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II (1212 - 1250). Later, he lectured in Paris and the University of Bologna, practiced in various cities of Italy (in particular, in 1260, Mr.. was an astrologer urban community of Florence). Then B. joined to the leader of the Ghibellines Count Guido da Montefeltro and advised him on the artillery of the case, determined the best time of speeches in the campaign, ensuring that the count a number of victories.
