Reginald was born at Piperno about 1230. Since 1927 this town of the Lazio region in central Italy is Priverno. He entered the Dominican Order at Naples. Thomas Aquinas chose him as his socius and confessor at Rome about 1265. From that time Reginald was Aquinas's constant and intimate companion.
Aquinas dedicated several of his works to Reginald.
In 1272 Reginald began to teach with Aquinas at Naples. He attended at Aquinas's death-bed, received his general confession, and pronounced the funeral oration in 1274. He returned to Naples, and probably succeeded to the chair of his master. He died about 1290.
Reginald's testimony is continually cited in the process of Aquinas's canonization.
Writingsedit
Reginald collected all the works of Aquinas. Four of the Opuscula ('small works') are reports he made of lectures delivered by the Saint, either taken down during the lecture or afterwards written out from memory. These are: Postilla super Joannem (corrected by St. Thomas), Postillae super Epistolas S. Pauli,Postilla super Tres Nocturnos Psalterii and Lectura super Primum de Anima.
Reginald is also considered by some as the compiler of the Supplement to the Summa Theologiae. This supplement was meant to afford completion to the unfinished Summa Theologiae, and it was composed out of book IV of Aquinas's Commentary to the Sentences.
The funeral discourse published at Bologna in 1529 under the name of Reginald is the work of the Italian humanist Joannes Antonius Flaminius.
