Purpose

The purpose of the Cetedoc Library of Christian Latin Texts (CLCLT) is to offer a database comprising all patristic and medieval texts covering authors from the 2nd to the 15th century. In the near future, the inclusion of Neo-Latin texts will expand its domain across the chronological boundary formed by the 15th century.

Content

The CLCLT database comprises almost all works published in the Corpus Christianorum, both Series Latina and Continuatio Mediaeualis. A large number of works has been taken from collections such as the Corpus Scriptorum Ecclesiasticorum Latinorum, Sources Chrétiennes, Migne's Patrologia Latina and other series.

The CLCLT-4, which constitutes the fourth edition of the Library, has been enlarged by almost 4 million new forms. With its 38 million forms, it contains the complete works of most of the major patristic authors as well as those of several medieval writers (e.g. Ambrose, Augustine, Bernard of Clairvaux, Cassian, Gregory the Great, Jerome, Marius Victorinus, Thomas a Kempis and Thomas of Celano). Next to these, it includes the Vulgate, the Old Testament Pseudepigraphs and the Ecumenical Councils, both classical and mediaeval. Among the newly added works are Cyprian's Opera Omnia, several pseudo-Augustinian works, translations from Greek authors, Augustine's newly discovered sermons, the letters of Petrus Damiani, Gratianus' Decretum, and many other texts of primary importance.

Determine level of proximity

Determine a level of proximity :

-“x /2 y” means that you are asking for the terms x and y and x with a maximum of 2 forms between them

-“x”%2y” means that you are asking for the terms x and y in the given order with a maximum of 2 forms between them

-REMARK : these codes of proximity (“/”,”%”) cannot be directly next to a parenthesis :

-Don’t write : (carnaliter, corpa*) /3 spiritaliter

But write : (carnaliter/3 spiritaliter), (corpa* /3 spiritaliter)

“Formarum examen”

The “Formarum examen” enables to check, before starting the search, the presence of all interrogated forms in the

general index covering both CDs.

If the unsuccessful search of a form is due merely to a mistake on the user’s part, this is made absolutely clear.

REMARK : the use of truncated words (e.g. cetedo*) disables this “formae” check
