A landmark in the study of Roman law Reprint of the only edition.
The final edition of Ortolan's Explication Historique des Instituts
de Justinien (1873) is a vast three-volume work containing a
history of Roman law, a treatise on Roman jurisprudence and a
complete commentary on the Institutes, the textbook of Justinian's
law from the Corpus Juris Civilis. It was the standard textbook in
its day and often the basis for examinations. Conceived for
students with limited time and fluency in French, Mears's Analysis
is a skillful condensation of Ortolan's work. Still a remarkably
comprehensive study, it provides an excellent contextual overview
of Roman law. CONTENTS PART I. History of Roman Legislation First
