The Tracts of Clement Maydeston: With the Remains of Caxton’s Ordinale is a book edited by Christopher Wordsworth. The book contains two important texts from the late medieval period: the tracts of Clement Maydeston and the remains of Caxton’s Ordinale. Clement Maydeston was a 15th-century English canon lawyer who wrote several tracts on ecclesiastical law, including a commentary on the Decretals of Pope Gregory IX. Maydeston’s tracts are important sources for the study of canon law and the history of the English Church. The remains of Caxton’s Ordinale are fragments of a manuscript that was printed by William Caxton, the first English printer, in the late 15th century. The Ordinale is a liturgical book that contains instructions for the celebration of the Mass and other church services. The fragments of Caxton’s Ordinale are significant because they provide insight into the early history of printing in England and the development of the English language. Christopher Wordsworth’s edition of these two texts includes an introduction that provides historical context and a detailed analysis of the texts themselves. The Tracts of Clement Maydeston: With the Remains of Caxton’s Ordinale is an important resource for scholars of medieval history, canon law, and the history of printing.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
