Note 168 — Chapter XI · HISTORY OF SEPARATION AND DIVORCE UNDER ENGLISH AND ECCLESIASTICAL LAW
Reading edition
By the bishop of Barcelona, who proposed the word separatio for divorce quoad torum: Esmein, op. cit., II, 309. On the misleading names for the two kinds of separation see Pollock and Maitland, Hist. of Eng. Law, II, 392 n. 5. However, a "modern distinction of some Catholic writers between anullatio and separatio removes all ambiguity."—Woolsey, Divorce, 124.
