Beschreibung
In the second part of the edition of 'De iustitia et iure caeterisque virtutibus cardinalibus' from 1605, Leonardus Lessius offers a detailed presentation of the late scholastic doctrine of 'restitution': the doctrine of the obligation to pay damages and to compensate for enrichment. According to Roman Catholic doctrine, a sin could only be forgiven if the liable party had paid compensation for the damage or returned someone else's property (restitution). Restitution thus transformed theological natural law into a genuine legal order, which determined the daily life of the faithful. Lessius casuistically explains a broad outlook on individual violations of law (for example, of life, body, property or honour) and the related offences. Overall, this part of the work offers a varied picture of early modern Catholic everyday morality.
