===Early life=== Pierre de Tarentaise was born around 1225 near [[Moûtiers]] in the [[Tarentaise Valley|Tarentaise]]<ref>The localisation of Peter's birth to the valley of Tarantaise is found already in the biography by Bernardus Guidonis, a contemporary and fellow Dominican. Ludovico Antonio Muratori, ''Rerum Italicarum Scriptores'' III (Milan 1733), p. 605.</ref> region of the [[County of Savoy]]. An alternative popular hypothesis, however, suggests that he was born in [[La Salle, Aosta Valley|La Salle]] in the Aosta valley in Italy.<ref>Jean Prieur and Hyacinte Vulliez, ''Saints et saintes de Savoie'' (éditions Le Vieil, Annecy, 1999), pages 87-88. According to this hypothesis, a street in [[Aosta]] has been dedicated to Pope Innocent V.</ref> Both places were then part of the [[Kingdom of Burgundy-Arles|Kingdom of Arles]] in the [[Holy Roman Empire]], but now the first is in southeastern [[France]] and the second in northwestern [[Italy]]. Another hypothesis, favored by some French scholars, is that Peter originated in Tarantaise in Burgundy, or Tarantaise in the Department of the Loire in the Arrondissement of Saint-Etienne.<ref>Ghislain Brunel, p. 793.</ref> In early life, around 1240, Peter joined the [[Dominican Order]] at their convent in Lyons.<ref>Paolo Vian, "[http://www.treccani.it/enciclopedia/beato-innocenzo-v_%28Enciclopedia-dei-Papi%29/ Innocenzo V], beato." ''Enciclopedia dei papi'' (2000). (in Italian) His residence in Lyons may have been the occasion for him acquiring the name ''Burgundus'': Benedictine Monks of S. Maur (editors), ''Gallia christiana'' 4 (Paris 1728), p. 149. If Peter were Savoyard, his presence in the French Province of the Dominicans must be convincingly explained.</ref> In the summer of 1255, he was transferred to the ''studium generale'' in the Convent of S. Jacques in Paris. This move was essential for someone who was likely to study at the University of Paris. He obtained the degree of Master of Theology, and quickly acquired great fame as a preacher.<ref>P. Glorieux, ''Répertoire des maîtres en théologie de Paris au XIIIe siècle'' I (Paris 1933), pp. 107-112.</ref>
