A reliable and systematic commentary., Jun 1 2000
By Edward Peters - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Code of Canon Law annotated: Latin-English edition of the Code of Canon Law and English-language translation of the 5th Spanish-language edition of the commentary (Hardcover)
This work first appeared in Spanish, then in French, and now in English. It is a thoughtful, canon-by-canon commentary on the entire 1983 Code. It includes the Latin-English text of all canons, offers a superb English index, and provides a very useful appendix of complementary canonical legislation from numerous countries. With each translation, the editors slightly modifed the original Spanish commentary to help make the notes more useful to readers of that language group. Still, in using this work, one will notice at times an approach to some canons that reflects what I will call "more European" concepts of canon law than North American. This is not bad of course, but the approaches used here need not always be the exactly same as one would expect to encounter in other parts of the world-wide Catholic Church and its legal system. This commentary is of fine scholarship, the translations are very reliable, and, without doubt, the Navarra text has become a standard reference in modern canon law.

A vademecum for canon lawyers and students of canon law, Jan 25 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Code of Canon Law annotated: Latin-English edition of the Code of Canon Law and English-language translation of the 5th Spanish-language edition of the commentary (Hardcover)
This book is SUPERB. Not only does it have the complete Latin and English text of the 1983 Code, but the commentary is excellent and very orthodox. A true vademecum, it is more portable than the CLSA version.

Full text of the 1983 Code of Canon Law, annotated, Aug 18 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Code of Canon Law annotated: Latin-English edition of the Code of Canon Law and English-language translation of the 5th Spanish-language edition of the commentary (Hardcover)
The extensive notes by the Canon Law faculty of the University of Navarre is the compelling reason to acquire this book. The full text of the canon law often needs explanation and commentary to get a true sense of the impact. Anyone involved with marriage tribunals, pastoral guidance, or scholorship needs this book; a indispensable reference.
