Book Synopsis

Law in a Culture of Theology: The Use of Canon Law by Parisian Theologians, ca. 1120âca. 1220 considers the study of law within its intellectual environment. It demonstrates that theologians associated with the schools of Paris in the twelfth century, particularly Peter the Chanter and his circle, had a working knowledge of Romano-canonical tradition and thought about the human context of the law, which, in turn, reflected the environment in which each master worked. It begins by showing the extent to which law was woven into the fabric of the schools of Paris, and follows with individual case studies.

These case studiesâmarriage in Hugh of St. Victorâs De Sacramentis and Peter Lombardâs Sententiae, excommunication in Peter the Chanterâs Summa de Sacramentis et Animae Consiliis, crusade activity and heresy in Robert of CouÃonâs Summa penitentiae, homicide in Robert of Flamboroughâs Liber poenitentialis, and the faces of greed in
