Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a study and discussion of the laws of the twelve tables of ancient Rome. It begins with the historical context necessary to understand how and why the twelve tables were developed as a response to the internal conflicts in Rome. It continues with a close analysis of the original text of the twelve tables and each of the laws. The author pays close attention to the historical context surrounding each of the laws and the intent of the laws as informed by the context, as well as the actual effect of the laws. The intent of the laws is contrasted with the actual effect to highlight the limitations of the laws and the gaps that grew between the intent of the laws and their effect over time. Finally, the author discusses the decline of the application of the twelve tables and analyzes the reasons for that decline. The book concludes with an assessment of the influence of the laws of the twelve tables on Roman law and legal history as well as their influence on modern western legal codes. The author argues that the laws of the twelve tables are a critical foundation for understanding both Roman law and the development of western legal systems generally today.
