VERY RARE PIGNATELLI'S REPERTORY ON CANON LAW

Pignatelli, Jacopo. Iacobi Pignatelli Consultationum Canonicarum Pro publico usu quotidiano Tomus Secundus ac Tertius [...] In quibus Praecipuae Controversiae De ijs, quae ad Sanctorum Canonizationem, ac sacros Ritus, Ad S. Concilium Tridentinum, Ad Episcopos & Regulares, Ad Immunitatem, Libertatem, ac Iurisdictionem ecclesiasticam potissimum spectant [...]. Romae, Typis Iosephi Corvi, 1675.

2 tomes (out of 10) bound together in one volume, folio (300x205 mm), contemporary full vellum binding, four raised bands spine, gilt titles engraved in an orange morocco label, ff. [8],pp. 236, 240, ff. [40].

Exceedingly rare first edition of Pignatelli’s second and third volumes of Consultationes, his immense repertory on Canon Law printed in ten volumes (each published separately between 1668 and 1683).

The work is a collection of legal counsels and opinions in Canon Law, to be used at the Ecclesiastical Courts as a repertoire of real cases. The second and third tomes, containing the Controversiae related to canonization, correct practices, Counsil of Trent’s dispositions, Bishop’s and ecclesiastical immunity.

Francesco Giacomo Pignatelli (1625-1699) was a renowned Italian Canonist, grown in Taranto and Rome where he took a degree in Utroque Iure. He was Camerlingo for the Roman Clergy, and he refused many times the nomination to Bishop, to fully dedicate himself to juridical studies.
