Iohannis Wyclif Tractatus De Officio Regis, now first edited from the Vienna Mss. 4514 and 3933, presents John Wycliffe's treatise on the office of the king. Written in Latin, this two-volume work delves into Wycliffe's political philosophy, exploring themes of governance, authority, and the relationship between the monarchy and the church. This edition, meticulously compiled from manuscripts in Vienna, offers scholars a valuable resource for understanding Wycliffe's perspectives on kingship and its moral obligations. The text provides insights into the socio-political landscape of the late medieval period and Wycliffe's influential ideas that challenged prevailing norms. This work remains relevant for students of political theory, medieval history, and religious studies, offering a profound look into the intellectual debates of its time.
