Hello everyone !
Today we are going to talk about the expression "for intérieur".
In the Middle Ages, the word took on the technical meaning of jurisdiction and especially ecclesiastical jurisdiction (powers of the Church, in matters of justice, and their extent.)
A distinction was made between the « for intérieur » (the Church could sanction faults committed through confession and penances), and the « for extérieur » (all matters relating to religion, directly or indirectly, were judged by ecclesiastical courts).
The distinction gradually changed meaning over the centuries: internal forum being our conscience which judges us, the external forum, institutions, judges and courts.
Good day and good game ;)
