Ecclesiastical Constitutions - Paperback

This is a collection of four short documents which have long been attributed to the first Christian king of Hungary, Stephen I. The first of such works clearly is not from Stephen's pen, but the two subsequent charters and codex of Hungarian laws appears to certainly be from the medieval period. Their original composition in Latin grants us some insight into the clerical relationships that existed in the early Hungarian court, as the language of these edicts was made in the lingua franca of the church, and not in the common language of the Hungarian people.
