Abstract/Contents

Summary: MS 157 contains fifteenth-century copies of tracts mainly relating to the schism which resulted from the Council of Basel (1431-1449). This council attempted to assert the superiority of church councils to the pope and declared Eugene IV (1383-1447, pope 1431-1447) deposed in 1440. They then elected the antipope Felix V, resulting in a schism that lasted until Felix V submitted to Eugene IV's successor, Nicholas V, in 1449.
Contents: De iurisdictione imperii et auctoritate summi pontificis -- Responsio ad quosdam errores Basiliensium -- Tractatus super diuersis questionibus inter papam Eugenium IV et concilium Basiliense -- Responsio inuectiua ad decretum iustissimae dampnations Basiliensium -- Summa de ecclesia contra impugnatores potestatis summi pontificis
