| Publisher Description: The two themes brought together in this volume - the canon law and the liturgy of the early medieval Latin Church - have close links, as these articles reveal. At the basis of this lies that fact that the collections and manuscripts with which Professor Reynolds is concerned provide the source material for both fields of study. In the book particular emphasis is given to the Irish Collection canonum hibernensis and its many derivatives, to works from Carolingian Salzburg and eleventh-century Southern Italy, and to liturgical collections. The whole illustrates the need for liturgiologists to be aware of the riches in medieval legal sources, and for legal historians to take account of the wealth of liturgical material that is a principal ingredient of the law of the Church; and demonstrates how much one field can contribute to understanding the development and to the dating of the other. Les deux th mes r unis dans ce volume - le droit canon et la liturgie de l'Eglise Latine du haut moyan- ge - ont, comme le r v le ce groupe d'articles, des liens tr s troits. Ceci reposant sur le fait que les collections et manuscrits, auxquels le professeur Reynolds s'int resse, apportent la substance se trouvant la source de ces deux terrains d' tudes. Dans le livre, une importance particuli re est donn e au Collectio canonum hibernensis irlandais et ses multiples d rivations, ainsi qu'aux travaux issus de Salzburg l' poque carolingienne ceux provenant d'Italie m ridionale au 11 s. et aux collections liturgiques. L'ensemble illustre la n sessit pour les sp cialistes en liturgie d' atre conscients de l'abondance de sources l gales m di vales et pour les historiens du droit de tenir compte de la richesse en mati re liturgique et que forme l'un des ingr dients principaux du droit de l'Eglise; il d montre aussi combien un domaine peut contribuer la compr hension du d veloppement et l'assignation de date |
