Acta Consistorialia, 1378-1644.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/505566993

Manuscript record of the proceedings of the College of Cardinals, assembled in consistory. The first volume (Bd. Ms. 464, hand numbered 152 on spine) is a selection compiled from the Acta Consistorialia from 1378-1595. The second volume (Bd. Ms. 465, numbered 437 on spine) contains, not acts of the Consistory, but decrees of the Congregation of Rites (Congregatio Sacrorum Rituum, a commission of cardinals) from 1605-1615, including much not printed (perhaps because no longer valid) in the official Decreta authentica of this Congregation (Rome, 1898-1901). The third volume (Bd. Ms. 466, numbered 438 on spine) contains the decrees of the Consistory from 1498-1644; the fourth (Bd. Ms. 467, numbered 439), a body of formulae and literary models ("Vota varia Consistorialia") for the use of its officials. The remaining volumes (Bd. Ms. 468-471, numbered 440-443) are Acta in the ordinary sense. Bd. Ms. 468 (numbered 440) covers the closing years of Pope Pius IV (1564-65); Bd. Ms. 469 (numbered 441), the pontificates of Gregory XIV and Innocent IX and the first years of Clement VIII (1591-1599); Bd. Ms. 470 (numbered 442) contains Cardinal Antonio Caraffa's memoirs of the Consistory (1561-1584); and Bd. Ms. 471 (numbered 443) contains the Acta Consistorialia of Cardinal Santori (1570-1595).

This congregation was established by Sixtus V as the Congregatio pro Sacris Ritibus et Caeremoniis (constitution Immensa aeterni Dei, Jan. 22, 1588). According to some authors, it absorbed a cardinalatial commission formed by Gregory XIII, as early as 1572, to reform the ceremonies of the papal chapel. Although the principal task of the new congregation was to attend to the moderation of the Latin liturgy "in all the churches of Rome and throughout the world," the bulk of its work w...

Volumes of them may now be found in many Roman libraries and in Florence, Bologna, Pistoia, and Paris. From the description of Acta Consistorialia, 1378-16...
