"Tractatus De Iubilaeo" is a comprehensive and authoritative canonical treatise examining the institution of the Catholic Holy Year. Written by the renowned Jesuit scholar Felix M. Cappello, a preeminent figure in the field of canon law, this work offers a deep dive into the legal and liturgical frameworks that govern the proclamation and celebration of Jubilees.

The text explores the historical evolution of the Jubilee, from its biblical roots to its development within the Roman Catholic tradition. Readers will find detailed explanations of the requirements for gaining plenary indulgences, the specific faculties granted to confessors during these sacred periods, and the various papal constitutions that have shaped the practice over centuries. Cappello's analysis is characterized by its precision and adherence to ecclesiastical jurisprudence, making it an essential resource for theologians, canonists, and historians interested in the intersection of law and devotion.

As a significant contribution to early 20th-century religious scholarship, this treatise captures the complexities of church governance and the spiritual administration of the faithful. "Tractatus De Iubilaeo" serves as a timeless guide to understanding one of the Church's most profound traditions, providing clarity on the rituals and regulations that define the extraordinary grace of the Holy Year.
