About this journal

The Zeitschrift für Rechtsgeschichte (ZRG, also known as the Savigny Journal) represents an integral part of European legal history research, having made a significant contribution to the current state of the discipline.

Each section publishes a new volume per year which includes an article and a literature section, each complemented by a Chronik and Mitteilungen section.

As the youngest section, the Kanonistische Abteilung is on a par with the others. It follows the history of the church from the beginning, together with its various branches, the Protestant church laws to contemporary legal issues concerning the relationship between the church and state with a particular focus on countries experiencing political upheaval. The extensive traditional material from the church archives illustrates particularly clearly that legal history can never be understood without reference to the specific political and social environment.

Peer Review

ZRGK is a peer-reviewed scientific journal. All submitted papers are read by at least three peer reviewers. At least one of the reviewers does not belong to the editorial board (double-blind peer-review).

History

The first predecessor of the ZRG as we know it today was created and sponsored in 1815 by Friedrich Carl von Savigny and C. F. Eichhorn in the spirit of the German Historical School.
A close association with the Savigny-Stiftung, whose name ZRG now bears, allowed for the familiar division into a Romanistische and Germanistische Abteilung in 1880. In 1911, a Kanonistische Abteilung was added.
The first volumes of the Zeitschrift der Savigny-Stiftung für Rechtsgeschichte (ZRG) were published in 1880 by Hermann Böhlau in Weimar.

The Violent Shepherd: Constructing Legitimate Violence in Pre-Nicene Christianity

Francesco Rotiroti

Page range: 1-52

Abstract

In the present article, I analyze Greek and Latin sources of pre-Nicene Christianity and argue that violence, although generally overlooked, constitutes an intrinsic and significant aspect of the early Christian model of pastoral rule. I premise my argument on an understanding of violence that rejects so-called ‘legitimist’ definitions, which subordinate the judgment on violence to a judgment on legitimacy and reserve the label of violence for illegitimate actions alone. Congenitally embedded in a network of conflictual relations, the shepherd of early Christian imagery is primarily tasked with the salvation of the sheep from enemies whose ambiguous identity, I argue, often betrays their provenance from within the flock. The shepherd is also engaged in disciplining his animals through measures that include severe physical punishments and exclusion from the herd. To conclude, I argue that the pastoral metaphor is itself an especially powerful instrument in the discursive construction of legitimate violence. For a relevant strand of ancient thought, to frame a particular institution in terms of the shepherd-flock relationship is, I argue, to conceive of it as replicative of the natural and normative order of reality, while also making certain acts of violence appear as the preferable course of action to be sought in the government of the community.

II. Power as Privilege: The Maxim Privilegium meretur amittere, qui potestate sibi concessa abutitur

Bruce Brasington

Page range: 53-72

Abstract

We trace the transmission and influence of a late-antique maxim, “Privilegium meretur amittere, qui potestate sibi concessa abutitur” [PMA] down to the early modern period. Appearing first in a decretal of Pope Simplicius, it spread not only through the canon law but also into a variety of other texts, for example theological and political treatises. PMA deserves attention alongside the more famous “Quod omnes tangit, ab omnibus approbetur” through its contribution to the idea of limited government.

III. Regesta decretalium et extravagantes. The Use of Papal Decretals around 1200

Gisela Drossbach

Page range: 73-105

Abstract

In my paper I will not classify decretal collections on the basis of the letters they include. However, I want to look at the totality of form and content of manuscripts, codicological and paleographical aspects as well as the typology of decretals. My thesis is that they were used in different types of transfer and that the production and spread of decretals happened mainly in the Paris Basin. My article will be presented in the following sections: 1. Introduction; 2. Deconstructibility of Decretals and Extravagants; 3. Materiality and Use of Decretal Collections; 4. Paratexts or “Layout on Page Margins”; 5. Pre-Gratian Decretals; 6. Paris Basin – Use of decretals in Schools; 7. Conclusion

IV. Ira Dei venit de coelo in filios diffidentiae. Zur Verbindung von Häresie und Sodomie aus kanonistischer Perspektive

Kevin Kulp

Page range: 106-131

Abstract

This paper questions the narrative widely used in historical research that from the time after the Fourth Lateran Council (1215), the canonical punishment of sodomy was tightened and sodomy was ultimately persecuted as heresy. Particular attention is paid to the ecclesiastical prosecution of heresy in the pontificate of Gregory IX in comparison to the treatment of the offence at the Lateran Councils of 1179 and 1215 as well as in the confession summa of Raymund of Peñafort. Due to the opposing presentations of the issue by Raymund and Gregory, this essay also contributes to the question of the relationship between the Pope and the compiler of the Liber Extra.

V. Der Dekretalenapparat Papst Innozenz’ IV. Ein bekannter Unbekannter

Martin Bertram

Page range: 132-157

Abstract

The Apparatus on the Decretals by pope Innocent IV: A known unknown . Other than the usual approach which focuses on the juridical content of the famous decretal commentary, the present paper highlights its structural and formal features. Peculiarities include unusual methods of argumentation, striking disproportions in the attention given to individual decretals, increasing frequency of gaps due to rudimentary treatment of certain decretals and complete omission of others, a program of textual criticism halfway abandoned, a rich tradition, where some 30 early editions, ca. 160 medieval manuscripts and a mysterious originale remain without apparent connections, a daunting jungle of so called additiones . The paper, which asks many questions leaving them without answers, should nevertheless help to understand the incomparable commentary.

VI. Lutherische Konfessionsbildung. „Lutherische Orthodoxie“ aus rechtshistorischer Sicht

Mathias Schmoeckel

Page range: 158-197

Abstract

The development of the Lutheran Denomination. “Lutheran Orthodoxy” in the perspective of Legal History . The term ‘Lutheran Orthodoxy’ is mostly used for the majority of Lutherans following the ‘Formular of Concord’ of 1577. Originally, however, the term was coined with a polemic intention to reveal the hardhearted persecution of religious minorities. In a legal perspective it stands for a debate within Saxon Protestants, which starting in 1573 led to the incrimination of Calvinists as well as Philippists (followers of Philipp Melanchthon), but also established, eventually, the Lutheran denomination in the Empire and in other countries. When criminal persecution was no longer to be expected, this kind of debate was carried on among Lutheran lawyers in order to claim true Lutheranism for their own teaching. With Christian Thomasius, however, the repression itself became a reproach – which coins the common perception until today.

VII. Vom objektiven Maßstab zum subjektiven Urteil

Die Rolle des Richters bei Johann Oldendorp und die Neubewertung des gemeinen Beweisrechts durch Humanismus und Reformation

Mathias Schmoeckel

Page range: 198-226

Abstract

From an objective scale to a subjective verdict. The Role of the Judge in the work of Johann Oldendorp and the re-evaluation of the roman-canon law of evidence in Humanism and Protestant Reformation . The roman-canon law of procedure was based on the assumptions of the Church fathers that laws on jurisdiction would guarantee objective and just decisions. Humanism, however, relied on the assumption that education and knowledge would teach the individual; not general rules, but expertise would lead to cognition and justice. In order to save the traditional law of procedure, Johann Oldendorp, one of the most innovative Protestant lawyers, taught that the best educated judge with sufficient practical experience should still keep the promise of objective, just decisions. Although the ideas on hermeneutics had changed profoundly by then, this reasoning helped to find convincing verdicts in the procedure of the old roman-canon law.

Neue Erkenntnisse und Überlegungen zur Edition der Summa decretorum des Huguccio

Niels Becker, Martin Rehak

Page range: 227-237

Abstract

New insights and ideas for an edition of Huguccio’s Summa decretorum . A critical edition of Huguccio’s monumental and eminently influential Summa decretorum has long been an urgent desideratum of canonist research. The present contribution evaluates previous research conducted by Oldřich Přerovský (1924–2013) and presents the results of our own sample edition of parts of Huguccio’s commentary on the pars prima of the Decretum Gratiani. In particular, we offer new insights into the Summa’s complex manuscript tradition and propose a thorough revision of Přerovský’s editorial methodology with the aim of relaunching the Huguccio edition in the future.

Ordres et conflits de juridictions. L’appel comme d’abus: levier processuel, objet politique

Charles Baud

Page range: 238-249

Abstract

Orders and conflicts of jurisdictions. The procedure of appeal against an abuse of ecclesiastical power, processual lever, political object . The procedure of appeal as abuse was profoundly reformed by King François I, in the great ordinance signed at Villers-Cotterêts in August 1539. The concept underlying this reform set it up as a political lever in the fight against ecclesiastical jurisdictions, in a Gallican perspective. From the 16 th to the 18 th century, jurists thus turned a simple procedure into a real political tool in the service of their ideas.
