Tom

would it be possible to purchase a microfilm of the Augustinus Triumphus, De potestate, in Johns Hopkins Library?
If not, could you please give me the citation so I can order it on interlibrary loan from Eisenhower Library, if that is where it is?

thanks!
Tom

Probably more, but they tend not to be well cataloged.

Hi,

We have an incunabulum at the Peabody library in Baltimore (now run by
Hopkins).  There is one at the Lilly Library at Indiana.

Clericis laicos simply did not go away.  The papacy maintained the
principle of no taxation of the clergy without papal permission, even
when making concessions in Etsi de statu.

I trust all is well with you. I just read with great profit your 1974
art. on Clericis Laicos & the canonists. I was amazed at the longevity
of the bull.

At Villanova you mentioned that there are two copies of Augustinus
Triumphus' Summa de ecclesiastica poteste in the US, one being at U of
Illinois-Champagne. I cannot, however, find this work on the U of Ill
online catalogue. Maybe I wasn't listening carefully. 
Would you kindly repeat--this time I'll be listening with both
ears--where these 2 works are? Ill. would be the closer of the two (I
think you said Johns Hopkins).

Thanks, Tom, for your help.

See you at Kzoo.

Tom

Are there online resources to locate a book or ms. in any American
library?

I reviewed the 2nd ed. of NCE, & the failure to mark different stages
of contribution (original etc.) did not bother me then.  But I got a
testy message from someone who had been in a meeting in which the
publisher made a promise of comp;lete revision.  In retrospect, some
tagging would have been useful, but it does not prevent my using the
review copy sitting here within easy reach.

My problem with NCE lies in completeness.  It misses people, like
Arnulf of Beauvais.  For them I go to Lexikon fur Theologie und
Kirche,
now in 2nd ed.  I use both editions, because the second has dropped
some
things now in the first.

Paul Chandler wrote astutely of the problems of assessing and using 
older material, and continued, about the online version of the 1913 
_Catholic Encyclopedia_:

original?

In my opinion, yes, it does.  The problem of the authenticity and 
authority of materials is not helped by invisible emendation by a 
self-appointed editorial presence.  For serious work, one is driven,
if

relying on the online version, to compare it with the printed volume. 
I 
would not object to appending new material, or reconsiderations, 
including corrections of fact with citation of sources, to the
original

text.  Since there is little commercial value, if any, in the online 
version, one wonders just what is the purpose of unheralded revision?

Indeed; here, I suspect the NCE has fallen victim to commercial 
realities; maybe the original intentions of revision proved impossible

of achievement within the limits of the publisher's readiness to
support 
it?  In other words, it may have turned out there was too much that
had

to be done.  I agree with Paul, from comparison of the two editions, 
that the revised edition is very disappointing.

Here I suspect we're victimes of the change of scholarly style, so to 
speak: intensive study of particular texts, in their original
languages, 
including their textual state and the occasional significant 
difficulties of translation, seems to have gone out of fashion.  The 
virtues of one editorial text (and of one translation, beyond
questions

of readability to the modern eye) over another don't often seem to be 
part of the substance of courses in church history.
