Praepositinus (Gilbert Prevostin of Cremona, Prevostinus Cremonensis) (c. 1150 - 1210) was an Italian Dominican scholastic philosopher and theologian. He was a liturgical commentator [William W. Kibler, "Medieval France: An Encyclopedia" (1995), p. 554.] , and supporter a "res"-theory of belief [Harm J. M. J. Goris, "Free Creatures of an Eternal God: Thomas Aquinas on God's Infallible Foreknowledge and Irresistible Will" (1996), p. 113.] . He discussed intentional contexts [http://www.science.uva.nl/~seop/entries/singular-terms-medieval/] .

Having studied and taught at Paris, he went to Mainz Cathedral in 1196. Returning, he was Chancellor of the University of Paris from c.1206 to 1209. [André Vauchez, Richard Barrie Dobson, Michael Lapidge, "Encyclopedia of the Middle Ages" (2001), p. 1176.] .

A "Summa contra haereticos" from around 1200 was once attributed to him [ [http://www.gutenberg-e.org/maclehose/appendix2.html "A Tender Age": Appendix: Contexts and Sources for the Rise of Heresies and Catholic Responses ] ] .
