Abstract

The article analyzes the canonical theory of the 13th century Roman pontiff Innocent IV, the author of the epistles of St. Prince Alexander Nevsky. One of the theorists of common law, an active participant in the competition of medieval pontiffs with claims of secular power to deprive the Church of the institution of sui iuris and its subordination to the emperor, Pope Innocent IV in his messages and treatises determined those limits of church jurisdiction, the forced rejection of which in the medieval West led to the decline of the institution of the papacy in modern times.
