This volume deals with norms relating to trade and price expressed in handbooks designed for the education of confessors or as aids in the confessional. Parts 1 and 2 trace the development of such norms from the earliest times to the Reformation. Some 90 penitential handbooks are analyzed, with biographical sketches of the authors.
