A decree probably from a document once containing the whole Constitutiones Clementinae. The Exivi de Paradiso was enacted at the final session of the Council of Vienne on 6 May 1312. The text of the leaf corresponds to paragraphs 10 - 14 which starts with an explaination that friars cannot have gardens, vineyards or the the like; or large churches, only humble and modest buildings. From dealer description: This leaf contains a substantial part of the Exivi de paradiso, the document in which Clement V extended papal acknowledgement and his personal affect towards the newly founded Franciscan Order (Clement V noting that since a youth the “professors of this kind of rule” have inflamed his pious devotion), and setting out the guidelines of asethetic poverty for them.
Single leaf from the Constitutiones Clementinae (part of the Corpus Juris Canonici, or body of canon law of the Catholic Church) with gloss.
Probably copied around 1350 in Italy, this leaf is from the Constitutiones Clementis V, one of the books of canon law belonging to the Corpus Juris Canonici. Promulgated in 1317 by Pope John XXII, it is known as the "Liber Septimus Decretalium, Clementinae" or Clementines. The leaf contains the text of Book I, Title V, which discusses issues concerning vacant churches and benefices. The collective title Corpus Juris Canonici dates from 1441. Along with the Constitutiones Clementis V, it comprises the Decretum Gratiani (1141-1150), the Liber Quinque Decretalium (1234), the Liber Sextus of Boniface VIII (1298), the Extravagantes of John XXII (1325), the Extravagantes Communes of other popes to 1484 and the Appendix Pauli Lancellotto, a supplement work added in 1563. All of these texts were edited in 1582 to conform to the reflect of the reforms of the Council of Trent. They were superseded in 1917 by the Codex Juris Canonici. -- Bookseller.
