Ecclesiastical Courts

Original wills and testaments of the first three centuries immediately following the Norman Conquest exist only in instances of extreme rarity. In the muniment rooms of the various ecclesiastical courts examples earlier than the commencement of the fourteenth century appear almost unknown, although there is said to be at Lincoln a collection dating from the year 1283. Stray examples may here and there be found in such collections of early charters and deeds as those preserved at the Record Office, and it would seem that it is to the calendars of these now in course of publication that we must chiefly look for the possible discovery of any further examples.

Sexual Repression

Resum: La sodomia ha estat perseguida al llarg de la història europea pels tribunals civils i eclesiàstics. A més, a partir de l’any 1524 la Inquisició obtingué jurisdicció plena per jutjar la sodomia als territoris d’Aragó, Catalunya i València. Amador de Molina ja havia sigut jutjat i condemnat a Múrcia, des d’on va arribar, desterrat, a la localitat d’Ontinyent. Denunciat per l’estupre d’un menor, el Tribunal de la Inquisició de València es va mostrar implacable. Junt amb la transcripció del procés, aportem en aquest article una relació general d’alguns dels treballs més significatius en l’estudi de la Inquisició i la repressió sexual, i un esbós dels marcs doctrinals i legals del pecat-delicte de sodomia. Paraules clau: sodomia, homosexualitat, pecat nefand, crim, Inquisició, repressió sexual.Abstract: Throughout European history, sodomy has been pursued by civil and ecclesiastical courts. In addition, from 1524 on, the Inquisition obtained jurisdiction to judge sodomy in the territories of Aragon, Catalonia and Valencia. Amador de Molina had been judged and sentenced in Murcia, from where he arrived, exiled, in the village of Ontinyent. Denounced by the rape of a minor, the Court of the Inquisition of Valencia was relentless. Along with the transcription of the process, in this article we provide a general relation of some of the most significant works in the study of the Inquisition and sexual repression, and an outline of the doctrinal and legal frameworks of the sin-crime of sodomy.Keywords: sodomy, homosexuality, nefarious sin, crime, Inquisition, sexual repression.

The orthodoxy before 1500 was that the only remedy for defamatory words was a prosecution in the ecclesiastical courts. But it was a hard to deny a remedy if untrue words caused temporal damage, since damages could not be recovered in those courts. This chapter shows how actions on the case came to be available for causing temporal loss by words, and how indeed they became so common in the sixteenth century that the judges tried to discourage them by construing apparently defamatory words in a milder sense (‘in mitiori sensu’). Objections that such actions should not lie in respect of spiritual subject-matter, such as heresy or fornication, were overruled where temporal damage resulted. The final cases in the chapter show that the distinction between libel and slander was not the same, in its consequences, as that which became settled in later times.
