Justinian, Code of. This revision of the Theodosian Code was issued by Justinian in 529. It was supplemented by further constitutions known as ‘Novellae’ and by the ‘Digest’ and ‘Institutes of Justinian’; together they constituted the Corpus Iuris Civilis, which became the authoritative statement of Roman law, gradually accepted throughout W. Europe. The Code strongly influenced the development of W. canon law.
