Catholic Church canon law

Dates: |

Contents: |
The collection consists of a volume of Catholic canon law. Bound in heavy wooden boards covered with goatskin with traces
of bosses, this Italian 14th century Canon Law of the Catholic Church is in Latin manuscript on paper, a 41 x 31 cm. folio.
The watermark of the paper used in Part I is a standing dove with an olive branch of five twigs. The watermark of Part II
seems to be an interwoven S. The volume consists of the following three parts: Part I. 228 leaves, a dictionary of Canon Law
terms with their definitions and descriptions; Part 2. 44 leaves, clarifications and distinctions of concepts pertaining to
Canon Law; Part 3. 3 leaves, table of contents for Part II. Written in at least two different hands in two columns, with many
floriated red initials and capital strokes, the text is full of abbreviations and contractions. A Latin manuscript note inside
the front cover reads "The name of the author is given nowhere in this book. It contains questions and resolutions of the
Canon Law in alphabetic order. The writing, or lettering, I would say, is from the middle of the 14th century." Another manuscript
note describes the title of the two parts thus: Summula Juris Canonici et Johannis Andrea Distinctiones Decretalium.
