Description

Explore the evolution of welfare institutions through this ground-breaking study from Oxford University Press. On Hospitals provides a deep examination of western law in the middle ages, establishing a legal model for the hospital for the first time. This research moves beyond traditional canon law, Carolingian capitularies, and Justinian's Code to incorporate late Roman testamentary law. By identifying new legislation and legal initiatives across every period, the book challenges long-established orthodoxies to present a new history of the hospital as a fundamentally European phenomenon. This monograph offers a unique lens for students and historians to examine canon law through the study of legal frameworks and welfare history from 400 to 1320.
