A Manual of Moral Theology for English-Speaking Countries

Vol. II, Bk. X, Pt. III, Ch. I, B.—Excommunications Specially Reserved to the Holy See, nn. 6, 7 & 8 (3 passages — hover a number to read it)

Treated under the broader heading Excommunications Specially Reserved to the Holy See — Noldin, Summa of Moral Theology · Wouters, Manual of Moral Theology · Gury-Ballerini, Compendium of Moral Theology (8th ed., 1884) · Tanquerey · Marc, Institutiones Morales · Konings, Theologia Moralis · The Casuist — these works do not divide the matter as finely as we do here, so their treatment stands one heading up (ed.)
