In the history of canon law, a decretist was a student and interpreter of the Script error: No such module "Lang".. Like Gratian, the decretists sought to provide "a harmony of discordant canons" (Script error: No such module "Lang".), and they worked towards this through glosses (Script error: No such module "Lang".) and summaries (Script error: No such module "Lang".) on Gratian.Script error: No such module "Footnotes".Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters". They are contrasted with the decretalists, whose work primarily focused on papal decretals.
