Abstract
The main sources for medieval philosophy and theology fall into two groups: those which were in use by the twelfth century and, in most cases, had been available since 800 or earlier (I shall call these the “old sources”), and those which became available in the years from approximately 1130 to 1280 (I shall call these the “new sources”).

The Philosopher talks of iustitia positiva (“positive justice”) rather that ius positivum (“positive law”). But Kuttner was right to think that, in this context, iustitia is close enough in meaning to ius for the usage to have counted as the first, were it not for the contemporary or earlier examples cited below.
