Jurisdiction and Choice : The Fifteenth-Century Church Courts of Carpentras
Diocesan Justice in Late Fifteenth-Century Carpentras' uses notarial records from
the 1480s to reconstruct the procedures, caseload, and sanctions of the bishop's court
of Carpentras and compare them to other secular and ecclesiastical courts. The court
provided a robust forum for debt litigation utilized by a wide variety of people.
Its criminal proceedings focused on recividist clerics who engaged in fights, disobedience,
anti-Jewish activities, and sexual transgressions. Its justice varied depending on
whether cases involved violence, sex, or contracts. The judge applied sanctions gingerly
and protected litigants' rights carefully, in ways we might not expect: his role was
to intervene in, explore, and document conflicts, and to elicit confessions and mediate
disputes. Participants exploited this narrative and archival space well
