Reprint complete in one volume that contains "an English
translation of five sections of the fourth volume of Otto von
Gierke's magisterial treatise on the history of the German law of
associations. When this edition was published, all competent
students of the history of jurisprudence and political thought at
once recognized that Professor Barker had made a very important
contribution to the literature of these fields, none the less so
because of the elaborate and learned Introduction which he himself
had contributed." C.J. Friedrich, Harv. L. Rev. 49:677-680 cited in
Marke, Catalogue of the Law Collection at New York University 938.
Gierke [1841-1921], an important German jurist, is widely
considered to be a founder of modern German constitutional law.
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.
This is an EXACT reproduction of a book published before 1923. This
IS NOT an OCR'd book with strange characters, introduced
typographical errors, and jumbled words. This book may have
occasional imperfections such as missing or blurred pages, poor
pictures, errant marks, etc. that were either part of the original
artifact, or were introduced by the scanning process. We believe
this work is culturally important, and despite the imperfections,
have elected to bring it back into print as part of our continuing
commitment to the preservation of printed works worldwide. We
appreciate your understanding of the imperfections in the
preservation process, and hope you enjoy this valuable book.
Political Theories of the Middle Age, by Otto Gierke, translated
with an introduction by Frederic William Maitland. One of the
world's great scholars in the hisotry of political ideas, Otto Von
Gierke (1844-1921) was professor of law at the University of
Berlin, of Breslau, and of Heidelberg, and produced monumental
studies in the interpretation of legal history. In the present
volume, Gierke gives his sharply definitive treatment of the basic
political tenets up to the Renaissance.
