Furthermore, the commentators imitated him by not discussing it, a practice that extended into the seventeenth century.2 Trial beginnings were also routinely omitted from court reports, with no charges, oath, or plea recorded.3 The usual idea about inquisition as established at the council, following Adhémar Esmein’s 1896 article,4 which I myself have often repeated,5 is that defendants were not supposed to be put under oath when they responded to the charges, but that soon such oaths were routinely imposed.

The modest aim of this investigation is to present how medieval canonists elaborated on the relation between the two laws on the margins of their commentaries on two papal decretals from the late twelfth century. Both of them were issued by pope Lucius III, and they both referred to the passage from Justinian’s law that the canonists knew from the collection of his legislation in the medieval Authenticum. In it the emperor declared that secular laws should not refrain from imitating sacred rules.1 The research focuses on the most influential commentaries to the decretals written by canonists from the time they were issued up to Panormitanus. To common maxims that attempted to grasp the complexity of the relation between the two laws, such as ‘legista sine canonibus parum valet, canonista sine legibus nihil’ or ‘Ecclesia vivit lege romana’, one may add another maxim—‘leges non dedignantur sacros canones imitari’.2 It seems that both for medieval canonists","PeriodicalId":40554,"journal":{"name":"Bulletin of Medieval Canon Law-New Series","volume":"35 1","pages":"185 - 214"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2019-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1353/bmc.2018.0002","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43720198","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
