H. Bricmore

H. Bricmore, Brichemore, or Brydgemoore, surnamed Sophista, was a Scottish scholastic philosopher. Bricmore is stated by John [Leland (antiquary)|John Leland] to have lived at Oxford, and to have written commentaries on some of the works of Aristotle. He is probably the same person as Brichemon, of whom Leland gives a very similar description. The only account of his life comes from Thomas Dempster who states that Bricmore was one of a number of Scots sent to the University of Oxford by decree of the council of Vienne, and that he was a canon of Holy [Rood, Edinburgh]. Dempster adds, implausibly, that he died in England in 1382.
