Law in a Culture of Theology

This book considers the study of law within its intellectual environment, demonstrating that theologians associated with the schools of Paris in the twelfth century had a working knowledge of Romano-canonical tradition.

It explores how these theologians, particularly Peter the Chanter and his circle, thought about the human context of the law.

The book begins by illustrating the extent to which law was integrated into the fabric of the schools of Paris.

It then presents individual case studies to further support its arguments.

This book is a useful resource for students and researchers interested in medieval canon law, medieval theology, and pre-modern law.
