As trained lawyer, Pope Gregory edited and systematised the numerous compilations of early legal pronouncements or decisions, codifying them, while excising portions, or “Exravagantes” , thereby creating the 1234 Decretalium or Decretals. The work was published by Pope Bonifacius vii.
In the present legal example, the Decretals are accompanied by flanking commentaries by Bernardus Bottoniensis and Johannes Andreas; the work also includes Dr. Lodovico Bolognini’s legal tables.
This body of canonical law would form the basis of canon law until, in 1917, the law was further elaborated. Posterity would remember Pope Gregory for his Decretales, Papal Inquisition, ultimately with devastating long-term effects on Europe, and his call for the Crusade of 1239 to retake Jerusalem. In 1233 Gregory IX would institute the Papal Inquisition to bring order and to deal with heresy, appointing papal inquisitors - Inquisitores haereticae pravitati – in 1231. A consequence of the Decretals would become the suppression of followers of Judaism. The doctrine of servitus camerae imperialis, or servitude immediately subject to the Emperor's authority, promulgated by Frederick II directly proceeded from and built on the Decretals. The prevention of Jews to participate in the political life of Christian states continued well into the 19th century. Other population would experience similar suppression or persecution, either directly by popes, or indirectly their emperors or vassal [s kings].
