The historians of Medieval political theory have overlooked the rôle of Roman and Canonical Laws in the formation of the Political Theory at the same time that they attributed considerable importance to the conflicts between the Papacy and the temporal power and to the councilistic discussion that took place within the Church. For that reason, they devoted preminence to the argumentation of Aristotelian basement than to that of juridical base. However, Aristotle was the foundation of only abstract discussions of intellectuals and within the environment of the University, at the same time that the political decisions were in hands of erudite jurists. That is the reason of the polemic statements of scholars and theologians, who felt themselves despised (inasmuch as their scientific status was concerned) by the holders of the political power.
