On the Election and Nomination of Bishops
This book is in French.
Prosper Guéranger’s first book (1831), written at Le Mans after the Revolution of 1830: the ministry of election, the role of clergy and people, the duties and limits of the Christian prince, investitures, reservations, the Pragmatic Sanction, the Concordat of 1516 and its consequences, with an exhortation to the bishops of France. Dom Delatte’s explanatory paragraphs that precede the text are left out.
