Popis: The article deals with two documents of canon law from the beginning of XVIth century: annotated synopsis of the Statutes of London St. Paul Cathedral (1506) and the addition to the Statutes regarding canons regular (1518) composed by John Colet, the Dean. On the basis of comparative analysis of these texts and after comparing the texts with the Statutes of other English church hierarchs the authors concluded that the Catholic Church in England tried to implement clerical reforms for the spiritual and moral renewal of the clergy long before the Reformation.
