Si consideremus concrete habito respectu ad personas, sic est substantia, quia in qualibet persona substat et est tota . . . Si utroque modo: quasi in consideratione universali, sic est natura: quia naturale est divinae essentiae quod sit una et quod in ea sint personae: simplex tamen est impartialis et indivisibilis. Una annotazione marginale, nelle edizioni a stampa delle Clementinae,22 rinvia al Liber Sententiarum di Pietro Lombardo (I dist. 8) e ai relativi commenti dei ‘theologi scholastici’, nonché alla Summa theologiae di s. Tommaso, ove la materia è trattata ‘in multis quaestionibus’. Il punto di partenza è in effetti costituito proprio dal Lombardo che al luogo indicato, 1, così esordisce: Nunc de veritate, sive proprietate, sive incommutabilitate atque simplicitate divinae naturae, sive substantiae sive essentiae agendum. l’Aquinate tiene presente anche il De divinis nominibus di Dionigi, di cui il lemma ‘la causa prima è superiore ad ogni narrazione’—rinviante alla ineffabilità del primo principio—è tratto caratteristico , analizzato da Tommaso nel commento al Liber medesimo (prop. 6). Cf. su tutto Tommaso d’Aquino, Commento al Libro delle cause, cur.

GIOVANNI D’ANDREA 263 Ora, non v’è dubbio che s. Tommaso, in più luoghi, indugi sul significato dei termini ‘natura’, ‘substantia’, ‘essentia’, ‘persona’ riferiti a Dio, trinità di persone nell’unica sostanza;23 ma nel passo del canonista bolognese—peraltro espresso in veste squisitamente tecnica—di tomista v’è poco o nulla. Penserei, piuttosto, alla ripresa di un tema caro alla riflessione di Scoto, centrata sulla distinzione formale. Per il francescano scozzese più cose o più perfezioni sono distinte formalmente quando concettualmente l’una è irriducibile all’altra, mentre ‘in re’, o ‘in natura’, è assurdo che esistano separatamente24. Così, l’unica essenza divina va distinta dalla trinità delle persone: l’una e le altre, però, lungi dall’escludersi a vicenda, si coimplicano nel mistero della vita o della natura trinitaria. Nella prospettiva scotista la distinzione formale consente, appunto, di distinguere le tre persone divine dall’essenza comune.

Articles and books on early papal decretals are scattered in more than one sense. They have appeared in a large number of journals not closely connected in theme, as well as in a recent burst of books, and they have come out of several different historiographical and national scholarly traditions. The object of all this research, on the other hand, can be tightly defined: the emergence of a tradition of papal decretals. The aim of the survey that follows is to bring these books and articles within a common frame. To list some highpoints of the recent work: in answer to the question ‘what was the first decretal’ there are scholarly answers by Christian Hornung, Alberto Ferreiro, Dominic Moreau and Yves-Marie Duval. For the key pontificate of Innocent I there is the unpublished thesis of Malcolm Green. On the development of papal power and ideology, key names are Walter Ullmann, Geoffrey Dunn, George Demacopoulos and Kristina Sessa. For the setting in late Roman imperial governmental culture, the compressed comments by Caroline Humfress can hardly be bettered. In her book Caroline Humfress puts the spotlight on a legal mentality around the papacy in a broad context of the pervasive influence of late Roman legal training:2","PeriodicalId":40554,"journal":{"name":"Bulletin of Medieval Canon Law-New Series","volume":"35 1","pages":"331 - 374"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2019-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1353/BMC.2018.0007","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49596315","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}

Edgardo had been secretly baptized by his Christian housekeeper after allegedly falling ill as an infant. Since the law of the Papal States required that a person baptized must be raised Catholic, Inquisition authorities forcibly removed Edgardo from his parents’ home and transported him to Rome in order that he receive a Christian upbringing.2 ‘Worldwide protests followed. Thousands of people—from American protesters to the French emperor Napoleon III—demanded the child’s return.’3 Along with assurances that the boy would be well taken care of, Pius IX insisted, Non possumus. Controversy over the Mortara affair in the United States emerged once more, in January 2018, with the publication of Dominican theologian Romanus Cessario’s essay defending Pius IX’s decision.4 In order to forestall anti-Catholic sentiment in reaction to an upcoming film based on David Kertzer’s 1997 book on the Mortara case, Cessario argues that the separation of Edgardo from his Jewish parents is what the current Code of Canon Law, and Thomas Aquinas’s theology of baptism,","PeriodicalId":40554,"journal":{"name":"Bulletin of Medieval Canon Law-New Series","volume":"35 1","pages":"289 - 329"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2019-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1353/BMC.2018.0006","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46366560","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}
