Dionysius compiled a collection of decretals, using previous collections (not papal registers). Importantly, he distinguished between different kinds of papal letters and selected only "legal" (as opposed to "dogmatic") letters, a distinction that had a profound impact on Western canon law (d'Avray).
The Liber decretalium began with a dedicatory letter to a certain priest Julian followed by a capitulatio in the form of a numbered list of all rubrics of the decretals (Wurm p. 62).
Contents
The Liber decretalium does not have an independent manuscript tradition; it has to be reconstructed from later collections. According to Wurm's analysis, it originally contained 38 decretals and one imperial rescript (see Wurms pp. 62-81):
- Siricius, JK 255
- Innocent I, JK 311
- Innocent I, JK 286
- Innocent I, JK 293
- Innocent I, JK 314

- Anastasius, JK 744
The latter three are additions not found in the "reine Dionysiana" according to Wurm p. 75:
