Description

This scholarly collection examines the emergence and development of canon law as a formal profession from the 12th to 14th centuries in Western Europe. James Brundage traces how canon law evolved from a profitable occupation into a recognised profession, documenting the rise of systematically trained lawyers who first appeared in significant numbers during the latter half of the 12th century. By the 13th century, these canon lawyers had begun to dominate the ecclesiastical hierarchy of the Western church, fundamentally reshaping religious institutions and legal practice. The Profession and Practice of Medieval Canon Law brings together Brundage's authoritative research on how canon law became established as a distinct professional discipline with its own standards, training requirements and social status. This Variorum Collected Studies volume is essential reading for historians, legal scholars and anyone interested in the origins of professional law and the intersection of ecclesiastical and secular authority during the medieval period.
