To edit a selection of 13th and 14th c. treatises devoted to election within the Latin Christian Church. These treatises constitute an important aspect of the Church's jurisprudential tradition, they furnish an invaluable picture of the Church's thought and action in the recruitment of its highest officials, and they may also throw light on institutional developments outside of the Church.
