Glossators were scholars in the Middle Ages who focused on interpreting and commenting on legal texts, particularly the works of Justinian and the Corpus Juris Civilis. They added notes, explanations, and clarifications to these texts, which helped to make complex legal concepts more accessible to students and practitioners of law. Their work laid the foundation for modern legal scholarship and education. By creating detailed commentaries, glossators contributed to the development of Roman law and influenced the study of law in European universities. Their efforts helped preserve and transmit legal knowledge through the centuries.
