Overview
| Mero-Textual Commentaries on the 1917 Code
This page is no longer maintained.
For additional insights into the meaning of Pio-Benedictine law, canonists, having consulted one or more pan-textual commentaries on the law, often turned to one or more of mero-textual commentaries on the 1917 Code, that is, to commentaries treating entire books of the Code, parts of books, or sections of parts. The works listed here rank among the most important mero-textual commentaries on the 1917 Code.

Background
| Most mero-textual commentaries on the 1917 Code were written by individual scholars (e.g., Michiels on general norms). A few works originally written by one author were later so extensively revised by another that it is common for them to be referred to by double names (e.g. Lega-Bartocetti on procedures).
Some mero-textual commentaries contain the text of 1917 Code itself but many do not. Most appeared as single volumes (e.g., Schaefer on religious), some in multiple volumes (e.g. Roberti on criminal law). Some of the texts listed here are academic works (dissertations or theses submitted) by students but most are scholarly works produced by established canonists.
Some mero-textual commentaries underwent multiple revisions (sometimes presented as if new editions) making their citation today cumbersome. Mitigating confusion here is the fact that some works were internally divided into 'paragraphs' or 'sections' and usually these numbers remained fairly consistent from edition to edition even if pagination and text changed. Many of these works bore similar, sometimes identical titles, so they are usually known today by the names of their authors, as in, "Have you looked in Chelodi?"
The authors of or contributors to these works would be considered 'approved authors' and/or 'learned persons' for purposes of canonical interpretation. Those works that seemed to have been 'Highly regarded' or 'Well regarded' during the enforcement period of the 1917 Code are so noted. |
