HOLLIS on 'Atto Vercelli' (https://hollis.harvard.edu/discovery/search?query=any,contains,Atto%20Vercelli&tab=Everything&search_scope=MyInst_and_CI&vid=01HVD_INST:HVD2&offset=0 18 records) contains no English translation of any work by Atto: it lists the German dissertation edition of De pressuris ecclesiasticis (Joachim Bauer, 1975), an Italian-facing Polipticum (SISMEL, 2019), an Italian version of the homilies (Qiqajon, 1986), and Suzanne Wemple's English monograph 'Atto of Vercelli: Church, State and Christian Society in Tenth Century Italy' (1979), which is a study, not a translation. A title-level query returns only the German edition (https://hollis.harvard.edu/discovery/search?query=any,contains,Atto%20De%20pressuris%20ecclesiasticis&tab=Everything&search_scope=MyInst_and_CI&vid=01HVD_INST:HVD2&offset=0 1 record). Migne PL 134 prints the treatise at col. 54 (https://archive.org/details/patrologiaecursu0134mign). No English translation was located.
One of the first systematic Latin treatments of what would later be called ecclesiastical liberties: episcopal courts, tithes, alienated church property and the immunity of clerics from lay judgment. Atto argues from canon law and practice in the Italian kingdom, and the treatise is a direct ancestor of the eleventh-century reform polemic; without it the Gregorian claims of the 1050s look more original than they are.
