Book Papal Immunity and Liability in the Writings of the Medieval Canonists

Download or read book Papal Immunity and Liability in the Writings of the Medieval Canonists written by James M. Moynihan and published by Gregorian Biblical BookShop. This book was released on 1961 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The interest in the history of the development of canon law has been focused primarily on the writings of the large body of canonist who were active from the twelfth through the fourteenth centuries. Within this period, the writings of the canonist who lived in the century between Gratian and Gregory IX are of special importance. One result of the promulgation of the Gregorian Decretals was that it mad the formidable production of canonical literature of the preceding one hundred years largely obsolete for practical purposes. Points disputed in the earlier authors were often settled by subsequent legislation, and older interpretations were no longer compatible with the official text. The net result of it all was that the immense output of canonical exegesis in the form of Summae, Distinctiones, Notabilia, Generalia, and other literary forms - the work of an entire century - soon fell into oblivion. Until recently, studies in this field were the concern of a small group of scholars. Now a challenging project is underway to make available in printed editions the canonistic treasures of the twelfth and thirteenth centuries. Heretofore these works have been extant only in manuscript form, scattered throughout the libraries of Europe

Book Conciliarism and Church Law in the Fifteenth Century

Download or read book Conciliarism and Church Law in the Fifteenth Century written by Thomas E. Morrissey and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-10-28 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Crises are never the best of times and the era of the Great Western Schism (1378-1417) easily qualifies as one of the worst of times. As a professor of canon law at the University of Padua and later cardinal, and as a major theorist in the conciliarist movement, Franciscus Zabarella (1360-1417) tried to do what a good legal mind does: find and explicate a viable and legal solution to the crises of his time, a solution that would stand up in his own era and for the generations that followed. In this volume Thomas Morrissey looks at what he said, wrote and did, and places him and his thought in the context of the late medieval and early modern era, how he reflected that world and how he influenced it. Particular studies elucidate what he wrote on the authority and on the duty of the people in power, what they could do and should do, as well as what they should not do. They also show how he explored the area of early constitution law and human rights in civil and religious society and that his work leads down the road to our modern constitutional democratic societies. The volume includes two previously unpublished studies, on the situation in Padua c. 1400 and on a sermon from 1407, together with an introduction contextualizing the articles.

Book Lodovico Pontano  ca  1409 1439

Download or read book Lodovico Pontano ca 1409 1439 written by Thomas Woelki and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2011-05-23 with total page 952 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The short but fiery career of the famous jurist Lodovico Pontano (†1439) led from the universities of Bologna, Florence, Rome and Siena, the Roman curia and the court of Alfonso V of Aragón to the Council of Basel where he became rapidly one of the major conciliarist leaders and died at the age of only 30 years of the plague. Pontano’s biography and the sequential analysis of his largely unedited works shows how a man of learning managed to present his legal skills, later enhanced by persuasive theological arguments, as an expertise indispensable for government and to make himself so essential that he could regularly afford to break his contracts. The first edition of ten important tracts and speeches completes the work.

Book Judicial Tribunals in England and Europe  1200 1700

Download or read book Judicial Tribunals in England and Europe 1200 1700 written by Maureen Mulholland and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2003-06-28 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now available in paperback for the first time, this book examines trials, civil and criminal, ecclesiastical and secular, in England and Europe between the thirteenth and the seventeenth centuries. Chapters consider the judges and juries and the amateur and professional advisers involved in legal processes as well as the offenders brought before the courts, with the reasons for prosecuting them and the defences they put forward. The cases examined range from a fourteenth century cause-célèbre, the attempted trial of Pope Boniface VIII for heresy, to investigations of obscure people for sexual and religious offences in the city states of Geneva and Venice. Technical terms have been cut to a minimum to ensure accessibility and appeal to lawyers, social, political and legal historians, undergraduate and postgraduates as well as general readers interested in the development of the trial through time.

Book Conciliarism and Heresy in Fifteenth Century England

Download or read book Conciliarism and Heresy in Fifteenth Century England written by Alexander Russell and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2017-07-10 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The general councils of the fifteenth century constituted a remarkable political experiment, which used collective decision-making to tackle important problems facing the church. Such problems had hitherto received rigid top-down management from Rome. However, at Constance and Basle, they were debated by delegates of different ranks from across Europe and resolved through majority voting. Fusing the history of political thought with the study of institutional practices, this innovative study relates the procedural innovations of the general councils and their anti-heretical activities to wider trends in corporate politics, intellectual culture and pastoral reform. Alexander Russell argues that the acceptance of collective decision-making at the councils was predicated upon the prevalence of group participation and deliberation in small-scale corporate culture. Conciliarism and Heresy in Fifteenth-Century England offers a fundamental reassessment of England's relationship with the general councils, revealing how political thought, heresy, and collective politics were connected.
