Henricus Canisius (1562, Nijmegen - 2 September 1610, Ingolstadt) was a Dutch canonist and historian.
Canisius was born Hendrik de Hondt ("The Dog", Latinized to Canisius), the nephew of Saint Peter Canisius. He studied at the University of Leuven, and in 1590 was appointed professor of canon law at Ingolstadt.
Canisius's works on canon law include:
A complete edition of his canonical writings appeared in Leuven in 1649 and in Cologne in 1662.
His major historical work was Antiquae Lectiones, seu antiqua monumenta ad historiam mediae aetatis illustrandam (6 volumes, Ingolstadt, 1601–1604). In 1608 a seventh volume, Promptuarium Ecclesiasticum, was added by way of supplement. The Catholic Encyclopedia describes the work as disorganized and containing "much matter of minor value"; Basnage produced a heavily edited version under the title Thesaurus Monumentorum ecclesiasticorum et historicorum (7 vols., Antwerp, 1725).
Canisius edited for the first time the Chronica Victoris Episcop. Tunnunensis et Joannis Episcop. Biclariensis, and the Legatio Luitprandi (Ingolstadt, 1600). He also produced an edition of the Historiae miscellae Pauli Diaconi (Ingolstadt, 1603).

Papal appointment was a medieval method of selecting the Pope. Popes have always been selected by a council of Church fathers; however, Papal selection before 1059 was often characterized by confirmation or nomination by secular European rulers or by the preceding pope. The later procedures of the Papal conclave are in large part designed to prohibit interference of secular rulers, which to some extent characterized the first millennium of the Roman Catholic Church, e. g. in practices such as the creation of crown-cardinals and the claimed but invalid jus exclusivae. Appointment may have taken several forms, with a variety of roles for the laity and civic leaders, Byzantine and Germanic emperors, and noble Roman families. The role of the election vis-a-vis the general population and the clergy was prone to vary considerably, with a nomination carrying weight that ranged from nearly determinative to merely suggestive, or as ratification of a concluded election.
