1664 English LAW Lyndwood Provinciales Acton + Sharrock Canterbury Oxford

William Lyndwood was 14th-century English bishop best-known for his book the 'Provinciale'. This work is a commentary on English ecclesiastical decrees under the rule of the Archbishops of Canterbury and the titles of Pope Gregory IX. 'Provinciale' is one of the best accounts of the life and ecclesiastical law of English clergy during the 13th- through 15th-centuries. In the 17th-century, English historian Robert Sharrock edited and supplemented Lyndwood's work, clarifying many of the constitutions and statues of Canterbury Archbishops.

This 1664 Oxford edition is paired with Sharrock's edition of John Acton's 'Constitutiones Legatinae Regionis Anglicanae'. Also written in the 14th-centuy, 'Constitutiones' was a commentary on papal legates to Henry III of England from Cardinal Otho and Cardinal Ottobone. For centuries, these two constitutions formed the basis of English law.

Lyndwood's 'Provinciale' and Acton's 'Constitutions' are now synonymous with each other – highly important works of 14th-century English Ecclesiastical law.
