Abstract

In the period between the 5th and 8th centuries, Canon Law and Theology followed a different course. While Theology was experiencing a sort of regression, Canon Law showed elements of remarkable growth and expansion. The article highlights the work of Dionysius Exiguus,the figure of Gregory the Great, as well as councils, jurisprudence and tendencies to legalism in the Church from the 5th to the 8th century. In the end, it is suggested that, taking account of Canon Law, it might be correct to rethink the overall evaluation of the theological production of that time.
