Description

Book Synopsis
Illuminates the moral, social, political, and religious values in canon law as it developed through the seventeenth century and reveals the attitudes and formal techniques of the authors, practitioners, and interpreters of canon law. The author also discusses the Corpus iuris canonici, texts which form the foundation of canon law.

Trade Review
"Whereas the focus to date of so much writing on medieval canon law has been that of its systematization, this study shifts that focus fairly and squarely to the substantive law, and in so doing sets the agenda for future work in the field. This book is beautifully produced." - Ecclesiastical Law Review"
