Download or read book Studies in the Civil Law written by William Wirt Howe and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-15 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in the Civil Law: And Its Relations to the Jurisprudence of England and America, With References to the Law of Our Insular Possessions The first edition of this book was suggested by the fact that in the year 1894 the writer delivered a course of lectures on the Storrs foundation, on similar topics, before the Law School of Yale University. In preparing the second edition the work has been considerably enlarged, so as to embrace a wider scope in the same field. Since the first edition was published our country has acquired what we call our insular possessions. The private law of those islands is derived from Spain; and Spanish law in turn is largely of Roman origin. In preparing this volume I have kept the following points in view: firstly, to state the elements of Roman law; secondly, to trace the extension of that system to what we know as modern civil law states in Europe and America; thirdly, to give the student references to the law of our new possessions; and, finally, to compare the leading doctrines of the civil law with those of what we call the common law. I do not know of any other work of this special scope, and I hope it may be useful to students in law schools, as well as to my brethren of the bar.

Book Roman and Civil Law and the Development of Anglo American Jurisprudence in the Nineteenth Century

Download or read book Roman and Civil Law and the Development of Anglo American Jurisprudence in the Nineteenth Century written by Michael H. Hoeflich and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 1997 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seeking to fill a gap in our knowledge of the legal history of the nineteenth century, this volume studies the influence of Roman and civil law upon the development of common law jurisdictions in the United States and in Great Britain. M. H. Hoeflich examines the writings of a variety of prominent Anglo-American legal theorists to show how Roman and civil law helped common law thinkers develop their own theories. Intellectual leaders in law in the United States and Great Britain used Roman and civil law in different ways at different times. The views of these lawyers were greatly respected even by nonlawyers, and most of them wrote to influence a wider public. By filling in the gaps in the history of jurisprudence, this volume also provides greater understanding of the development of Anglo-American culture and society.

Download or read book American Comparative Law written by David S. Clark and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2022-09-02 with total page 585 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Historical Comparative Law and Comparative Legal History Legal history and comparative law overlap in important respects. This is more apparent with the use of some methods for comparison, such as legal transplant, natural law, or nation building. M.N.S. Sellers nicely portrayed the relationship. The past is a foreign country, its people strangers and its laws obscure.... No one can really understand her or his own legal system without leaving it first, and looking back from the outside. The comparative study of law makes one's own legal system more comprehensible, by revealing its idiosyncrasies. Legal history is comparative law without travel. Legal historians, perhaps especially in the United States, have been skeptical about the possibility of a fruitful comparative legal history, preferring in general to investigate the distinctiveness of their national experience. Comparatists, however, content with revealing or promoting similarities or differences between legal systems, by their nature strive toward comparison. Some American historians, especially since World War II, see the value in this"--

Book A New Institute of the Imperial  Or  Civil Law

Download or read book A New Institute of the Imperial Or Civil Law written by Thomas Wood and published by The Lawbook Exchange, Ltd.. This book was released on 2007 with total page 594 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reprint of the third edition. It was common during the eighteenth century to promote the study of Roman and comparative law for its liberalizing effect on the student of the common law. Wood's New Institute was the best attempt to promote this goal. It went through four editions in 1704, 1712, 1721 and 1730 and was the standard Anglo-American treatise of the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries and a well-thumbed reference for jurists who wished to add an element of civilian learning to their work, such as Joseph Story. Wood also considers its role as an auxiliary to English law. As the title suggests, it is not only a summary of Roman law adapted to the needs of students of English law, but also a pioneering essay in comparative law. Wood pays some attention as well to Roman law's influence on the historical development of English law. Indeed, he observes that "Fleta and Bracton would look very naked if every Roman lawyer should pluck away his [sic] feathers" (ix).
