Treated under the broader heading Duties of Ecclesiastical and Civil Rulers and their Subjects — Noldin, Summa of Moral Theology · Slater, Manual of Moral Theology · Bucceroni, Institutions of Moral Theology · Tanquerey · Koch–Preuss · Vermeersch, Theologia Moralis · Prümmer, Manuale Theologiae Moralis · Merkelbach, Pastoral Questions · Merkelbach, Summa Theologiae Moralis — these works do not divide the matter as finely as we do here, so their treatment stands one heading up (ed.)
