Biography/Description |
|
Contains 95 letters from Innocent III, the latest dated to May 25, 1207. Described by Cheney as ‘unsystematic.’ Unlike many other collections, follows a rough chronological order. Significant because the decretals seem to have been copied by a canonist directly from the papal registers and reproduce some letters from Innocent’s missing registers from the third and fourth year of his pontificate. The canonist probably made this collection in order to supplement others. Part of the mass of legal materials compiled in the circle of Walter de Coutances, Archbishop of Rouen, in BNF lat. 3922A. |
