Description

This volume continues the series of Calendars formerly published by HMSO London. In addition to a full rendering of the historical information in the register entries, it includes two introductory essays. The first is an illuminating account of the administrative procedures of the papal chancery under Innocent VIII. The second, with its accompanying Formulary, examines the diplomatic and legal content of the bulls, providing one of the most comprehensive statements yet published of the common form of papal letters of the period.
