Description
Abstract (cited)

Contrary to the opinion of the late Maurice Sheehy and other specialists in early medieval canon law, this article demonstrates that the Collectio canonum hibernensis, despite its ‘Irishness’ or ‘Celticity’, had a substantial influence on canon law collections down to the time of Gratian, especially in central and southern Italy. Manuscripts from these regions—both excerpta and the entire Hibernensis—are examined first, and then twenty independent collections borrowing heavily or in part from the Hibernensis are studies.
