This book presents the results of the examination of all extant criminal law records from the Historical Archive of the Patriarch of Venice from the century before the Council of Trent. This examination made it possible to re-construct how canon criminal law trials worked in practice.The study is breaking new ground for two reasons: Firstly, the studied court records have not yet been the object of other historical treatises. Secondly, there is very few literature on the practice of ecclesiastical criminal jurisdiction in Early Modern Europe. Accordingly, I took a broad institutional approach and tried to identify all features and common problems of the analyzed records.The examination is not limited to legal aspects of court practice which are compared with their canon law sources. It also comprises some practical aspects which are usually not treated by legal historians such as the seizure of criminals, their prisons, the way they were tortured or the payment of lawyers and court notaries.One focus is on the conflict of competence with secular jurisdiction which is common to almost all trial records. Until now, this problem was mostly treated in the context of the external relations between Venice and the Holy See. My research on the ecclesiastical as well as secular court records of the same time made a more differentiated, multi-faceted view of the problem possible. The central arguments regarding this issue are summarized in the last chapter of the book.

这本书提出了所有现存的刑法记录的审查结果，从历史档案的族长威尼斯从世纪之前的理事会的特伦特。这一研究使得重新构建经典刑法审判在实践中的运作方式成为可能。这一研究之所以具有开创性，有两个原因：第一，所研究的法庭记录尚未成为其他历史论文的对象。其次，关于近代早期欧洲教会刑事管辖权实践的文献很少。因此，我采取了一种广泛的制度方法，并试图找出所有的特点和共同的问题，分析记录。检查不限于法律的方面的法院实践，比较其教会法的来源。它还包括一些法律的历史学家通常不处理的实际方面，如对罪犯的扣押，他们的监狱，他们遭受酷刑的方式或支付律师和法院公证人的费用。一个重点是管辖权与世俗管辖权的冲突，这是几乎所有审判记录的共同点。到目前为止，这个问题主要是在威尼斯和罗马教廷之间的对外关系的背景下处理的。我对同一时期教会和世俗法庭记录的研究，使我对这个问题有了一个更有区别的、多方面的看法。关于这个问题的中心论点在本书的最后一章作了总结。
