Only edition, rare, of this dissertation on the theological and legal aspects of theft and restitution, presented to the distinguished canon lawyer, and author of the monumental Manuale theologico-canonico-legale practicum, Stanislaus Karg.Divided into four sections, the work examines the nature of theft and its various types, the circumstances in which restitution can be used in cases of theft (and where it is inappropriate), and the forms it might take, drawing both on moral theology, and more heavily on canon law.No copies traced in the UK or US.
