La producción canonista italiana en dos pensadores hispanoamericanos de comienzos del siglo XIX: el chileno Justo Donoso y el peruano Francisco de Paula González Vigil

Through this work, the author explores the infl uence that had the Italian canonists, mainly from the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, on the works of two Hispanic jurists of the nineteenth century: the chilean Justo Donoso and the peruvian Francisco de Paula Gonzalez Vigil. Examining in detail the bibliographic corpus of both, it can be seen the preference they had for the autors that defended the Royal Patronage and who, by the way, were among the intellectuals, whether philosophers, jurists or theologians of the Catholic Enlightenment and, regarding the relations between Church and State, were in favor of the giurisdizionalismo, that is, the doctrine that held a decreas e of Papal power and an enhancement of the episcopal and civil powers.
