Biography/Description |
|
One of the oldest introductory summaries to the Decretum which precedes Gratian’s text in several twelfth-century manuscripts. It was composed by an anonymous canonist in Italy probably during the 1140’s. There are also at least two copies in which it is transmitted separately, attesting to its great success. As is true for other introductions to the Decretum, it does not cover De consecratione. |
