Description
Studying Roman Law provides an accessible introduction to Roman private law during its first three centuries. This guide is designed for those seeking a basic understanding of the subject, rather than a comprehensive manual.
The book covers the sources of Roman private law, their use, and the main areas of the law, using primary sources in translation. It also explores the contexts in which these rules arose and were enforced, set against the backdrop of one of the most sophisticated legal systems of the ancient world.
