Corpus Juris Canonici (1582)
UCLA Digital Library, in collaboration with the Center for Medieval and Renaissance Studies, presents a digital facsimile edition of the Decretals of Gregory IX as they appeared with marginal commentary in the Corpus canonicum glossatum promulgated by Gregory XIII in 1580. This is the first re-printing of the glossed text of the Liber Extra since the appearance of the editio Romana in 1582. This edition of the laws, edited by the Roman Correctors, and provided with numerous indexes to assist in navigating the canons and understanding terminology, will allow historians and legal scholars to study canon law with the aid of the original textual apparatus (glossa ordinaria). The publication of the Liber Extra will be followed during 2006 by the appearance of the glossed texts of Decretum Gratiani and the Liber Sextus. The project is directed by Professor Henry Ansgar Kelly of the UCLA Department of English, and supported by a grant from the Gladys Krieble Delmas Foundation.
