Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ecclesiastical Edicts of the Theodosian Code Even a slight acquaintance with European history reveals the existence of a number of curious and apparently unreasonable beliefs prevalent throughout a period extending from early mediaeval to comparatively recent times. There is the belief in witchcraft, for instance. From the canons of synods in the early Middle Ages down to the pitiless executions during the witchcraft delusion, there is abundant evidence of its prominence. It played its part not only in humble life, but in court intrigues and in the accusations brought at state trials. The belief that one's future could be learned by observing the stars was equally widespread. Astrologers throve at the courts of kings, and sometimes their advice was taken even by him whose every act was held to be under special divine direction. It would be a great mistake to think that the astrologer was maintained merely for the amusement of king and court, like the jester. His utterances were taken most seriously, and the principles of his art were so generally accepted as to become the commonplaces of the thought and the conversation of daily life. In 1305, for instance, when certain cardinals urged Pope Clement V to return to Rome, they reminded him that every planet was most powerful in its own house.

Excerpt: ...were made hereditary, from which escape was only possible after an individual had gone through the routine of all official duties to which his membership in the curial class might make him liable. Then he might enter the new senatorial order created by the emperors, in which he was exempt from municipal burdens, from torture and from service on the public works, but he was still subject to the land-tax, gifts on certain anniversaries, and, if appointed to offices, to expenses for public games. 1 There is an excellent summary of these conditions by Wm.

Teachers, rhetoricians, priests and physicians were granted immunity from personal burdens (munera) by various emperors because their services were regarded as contributions to the public welfare.1 To these privileged classes Constantine added the Christian clergy. In a letter to Anulinus, Proconsul of Africa, he directed that those who give their services to the worship of the divine religion, and who are commonly called clergymen, be entirely exempt from all public duties (omnibus omnino publicis functionibus) in order that they may not by any error or sacrilegious negligence be drawn away from the service of the Deity, but may devote themselves without any hindrance to their own law.2 These privileges were extended to the entire clergy in 319, but heretics were excluded from enjoying them in 326.
