‎Summary The unique Arabic version of the Iberian canon law code 'Collectio Hispana', preserved in a mid-eleventh-century manuscript of the Royal Library of El Escorial, has been deemed ?the most distinguished and characteristic? work of medieval Andalusi Christian writing. It represents an exceptional source witness to the internal legal organisation of Christian communities in Muslim-dominated al-Andalus as well as to their acculturation to Islamicate environments. Yet, the Arabic collection has received only little scholarly attention so far. This volume presents the results of a recent interdisciplinary research project on the Arabic canon law manuscript, flanked by contributions from neigbouring fields of research that allow for a comparative assessment of the substantial new findings. The individual chapters in this volume address issues such as the origins of the Arabic law code and its sole transmitting manuscript, its language and translation strategies, its source value for both the persistence and transformation of ecclesiastical institutions after the Muslim conquest, or the law code's position in the judicial practice of al-Andalus. The volume brings together the scholarly expertise of distinguished specialists in a broad range of disciplines, e.g. history, Arabic and Latin philology, medieval palaeography and codicology, archaeology, coptology, theology and history of law.

‎ENSEMBLE COMPLET DE CANONS COLORIÉS, COMPORTANT LE CANON CENTRAL (en trois volets) ET LES CANONS DU LAVABO ET DU DERNIER ÉVANGILE (XVIIIEME)‎

‎Paris MARCILLY XVIIIème Ensemble de trois Canons, estampes en gravure en taille douce colorée à la main polychrome portant un texte en latin imprimé à l'encre noire avec illustrations se rapportant à l'iconographie et aux instructions liturgiques(collées sur carton enveloppé de papier vieux rose). Le canon central est Pliant et de forme rectangulaire horizontale (format déplié : 38 cm de haut x 61 cm de large - Format plié : 21,6 cm de large x 38 de haut), les deux autres de forme rectangulaire verticale (format : 24,8 cm de large x 33,4 cm de haut), Le canon central est composé de trois espaces scandé par un décor (décoré à la main) aux guirlandes de fleurs et Anges avec aux pieds des personnages bibliques avec leurs attibuts : MOÏSE et sa Table de la Loi, Saint-MARC assis sur un Lion avec un livre ouvert, Un Aigle avec Saint-JEAN l'évangéliste, Saint-LUC assis sur un Boeuf, Saint-PIERRE tenant ses Clefs à la Main, Saint MATTHIEU et son Ange, Saint-PAUL et son Epée, Saint-LAURENT en habit de Thuriféraire avec son brule-encens etc... avec des Anges dans la partie supérieure. Le canon dit du Dernier Evangile : le texte en latin est encadré à gauche et à droite de 2 Colonnes sculptées avec motif floral en couleurs surmontés chacune d'un Ange tenant une guirlande de feuilles verte au dessus du texte avec une Urne dorée au centre. Le canon dit du Lavabo présente le même type de mise en scène, avec au pied du texte en latin un Livre, une Croix d'or et un Brule-Encens représenté au lieu d'un Agneau Pascal blanc; l'ensemble est trés beau et les couleurs trés fraîches peintes à la main sont resplendissantes, le coin droit du canon central est fortement écorné sans que cela ne touche à aucun moment à la gravure, petites traces de coulures de cire, montrant bien que cet Autel Portatif à servi, sans date (XVIIIème) sans lieu ni nom d'Editeur ( peut être Paris Marcilly, rue saint Jacques n° 21, Imprimeur Editeur), ‎

‎LES CANONS D'AUTELS : [Du temps de la messe en latin, dos au peuple, trois tableaux écrits en latin et parfois décorés à la main, étaient disposés sur lautel, lun à gauche comportait le texte du prologue de lEvangile selon Saint Jean, que le prêtre disait à la fin de la messe. Au centre un tableau sur trois colonnes comportait le Gloria, le Credo et les prières de la consécration A droite le troisième contenait les prières de bénédiction de leau et du Lavabo. Souvent, ces canons sont extrêmement décorés, et parfois même à la main] ce sont des Petits panneaux imprimés et colorés à la main, portant certains textes invariables de la messe et utilisés comme aide-mémoire par l'officiant. Les canons sont souvent au nombre de trois, celui du milieu, plus grand que les deux autres, peut être pliant Le canon central est le seul qui concerne le Canon (depuis la fin du Sanctus jusqu'au Pater), les deux autres sont le canon du lavabo (à droite, côté Epître) et le canon du dernier évangile (à gauche, côté Evangile). Ils ne sont plus en usage depuis Vatican II. Cet ensemble complet de canons coloriés, comportant le canon central et les canons du Lavabo et du Dernier évangile, a peut-être été édité par l'imprimeur parisien Marcilly, connu comme le successeur de l'éditeur d'estampes Petit, dont l'activité est attestée de 1755 à 1784. Marcilly a probablement après cette date repris le fonds de papeterie et son activité d'édition d'estampes à son enseigne, rue du Petit-Pont, à l'Image Notre-Dame. Il semble réutiliser ici des modèles issus de planches d'impression beaucoup plus anciennes ....... Mais le fait le plus intéressant est qu'il n'y ait pas comme habituellement le Nom et l'Adresse de l'Editeur, cet ensemble de Canons coloriés ont été trouvés en Vendée et ont pu être utilisé comme CANONS PORTATIFS par les PRÈTRES RÉFRACTAIRES pendant la révolution, AFIN DE POUVOIR FAIRE LA MESSE EN TOUT LIEU, et on peut comprendre que l'Editeur de ces canons colorés ne veuille pas apparaitre ouvertement comme Editeur, car les Révolutionnaires leur aurait fait payer trés cher (de leur vie) comme une prise de position en leur faveur ........ une RARETÉ ...... digne d'une inscription au Patrimoine de France .... en bon état malgré les légers défauts signalés (good condition in spite of the light defect indicated). bon état ‎

‎Fourth Lateran Council and the Development of Canon Law and the ius commune‎

‎, Brepols, 2019 Hardback, 331 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Languages: English, French, Italian. ISBN 9782503583013.‎

‎Summary This volume collects essays from an international group of scholars who treat various aspects of the Fourth Lateran Council's placement within the development of the ius commune. Topics include the canon law about armsbearing clergy, episcopal elections, heresy, degrees of affinity within marriage, the oversight of relic veneration; two essays highlight the council's reaction to the Fourth Crusade's sack of Constantinople in trying to incorporate the eastern church into the ecclesiastical structure and liturgical norms of the Roman Church; several essays concentrate on the usage of Roman or civil law in some of Lateran IV's constitutions and emphasize issues of private and procedural law. Collectively, and headed by an essay by Anne J. Duggan on the relationship of Pope Alexander III's pontificate to the Lateran IV constitutions, the essays create a fuller picture of Innocent III and his curia's reliance on developments within the jurisprudence of the preceding half century, but they also reveal the ways in which they forged new paths and made significant contributions to guide canon law in the years following the council.

‎Summary Bishops have always played a central role in the making and enforcement of the law of the Church, and none more so than the bishop of Rome. From convening and presiding over church councils to applying canon law in church courts, popes and bishops have exercised a decisive influence on the history of that law. This book, a selection of Anne J. Duggan's most significant studies on the history of canon law, highlights the interactive role of popes and bishops, and other prelates, in the development of ecclesiastical law and practice between 1120 and 1234. This emphasis directly challenges the pervasive influence of the concept of 'papal monarchy', in which popes, and not diocesan bishops and their legal advisers, have been seen as the driving force behind the legal transformation of the Latin Church in the twelfth and early thirteenth centuries. Contrary to the argument that the emergence of the papacy as the primary judicial and legislative authority in the Latin Church was the result of a deliberate programme of papal aggrandizement, the principal argument of this book is that the processes of consultation and appeal reveal a different picture: not of a relentless papal machine but of a constant dialogue between diocesan bishops and the papal Curia, in which the 'papal machine' evolved to meet the demand.
