SummaryIt is a point of contention whether the Theodosian Code contains also obsolete constitutions as foreseen for the projected interim code of CTh 1,1,5, or only valid constitutions (with the exception of Book 16). The text of CTh 1,1,6 is unclear in this point and seems to be a mere continuation of the plan of CTh 1,1,5. However, it appears that the first view does not take into account other statements of Theodosius, and that research into particular subjects shows the compilers have rendered a logically consistent review of the law, without superfluous texts. In view of this evidence it is better to assume that also elsewhere in the Books 1 to 15 as a rule only valid laws were included.

出版的狄奥多西法典是否包括过时的宪法？

摘要狄奥多西法典是否还包含对 CTh 1、1、5 的预计临时法典所预见的过时宪法，或仅包含有效宪法（第 16 卷除外），这是一个争论的焦点。CTh 1,1,6 的文本在这一点上不清楚，似乎只是 CTh 1,1,5 计划的延续。然而，第一种观点似乎没有考虑狄奥多西的其他陈述，对特定主题的研究表明，编纂者对法律进行了逻辑上一致的审查，没有多余的文本。鉴于这一证据，最好假设在第 1 至第 15 本书的其他地方也通常只包括有效的法律。
