Mosaicarum Et Romanarum Legum Collatio

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mosaicarum Et Romanarum Legum Collatio: With Introduction, Facsimile and Transcription of the Berlin Codex, Translation, Notes and Appendices Roman Jurisprudence engages the attention of continental jurists to a greater extent than it does that of English lawyers, being of more practical interest to the former than to the latter. The Law of England, though it owes much indirectly to that of Rome, is not based on it as are the Laws of France and Germany. Still the ancient system is deserving of more study than it receives, if only as a magnificently developed system of thought, the product of a long succession of great minds. For its preper understanding, however, one should begin at the beginning, with the remains of the ante-justinian juristic literature.
