Description
Echoes of Peraldus's notion of sin as "amor inordinatus" in the section of ParsT on contrition and confession, thought to have been adapted primarily from Pennaforte, suggest that the former's "Summa de vitiis" "exerts a more significant influence on a larger part of the ParsT than previously understood."
