Canon Law * Ius Novissimum
|
The canonical period Ius Novissimum ran from the Council of Trent (1545-1563) to the promulgation of the Pio-Benedictine Code (1917). Beginning in the Renaissance, running through the Baroque and the discovery of the New World, and reaching well into Modernity, this period saw some of the greatest syntheses of canon law ever composed. The codification of canon law in the early 20th century had the effect of discouraging research into this period even thought it was rich in social, pastoral, and legal insights. Now that codified law is firmly established in canonistics, it seems "safe" to begin revisiting some of the classical works of the Ius Novissimum to mine them for the theoretical and practical insights they offer.
For general overviews of the Ius Novissimum, see: Alphonsus Van Hove, Prolegomena ad Codicem Iuris Canonici, 2 ed., (Dessain, 1945) at 383-407 (fontes) and 529-612 (scriptores); Petrus Wernz, Ius Decretalium [see below] I: esp. 423-459; and Consant Van de Wiel, History of Canon Law (Peeters/ Eerdmans, 1991) 135-166.
For an overview of the underlying structure of the Ius Novissimum, see Ius Decretalium. Abbreviations used here are as follows:
