Synopsis

""An Introduction to the Study of Jurisprudence"" is a book written by Anton Friedrich Justus Thibaut and originally published in 1855. This book provides readers with a comprehensive introduction to the study of jurisprudence, which is the philosophical and theoretical study of law. Thibaut's work is considered a classic in the field of legal philosophy and is still widely studied today. The book is divided into six chapters, each of which covers a different aspect of jurisprudence. The first chapter provides an overview of the history of jurisprudence, including its origins and development over time. The second chapter discusses the various theories of law and their relevance to jurisprudence. The third chapter focuses on the relationship between law and morality, while the fourth chapter explores the concept of legal rights. The fifth chapter discusses the role of the state in creating and enforcing laws, while the final chapter looks at the relationship between jurisprudence and other fields such as politics, economics, and sociology. Throughout the book, Thibaut provides readers with numerous examples and case studies to illustrate key concepts and ideas. This edition of ""An Introduction to the Study of Jurisprudence"" is a translation of the original German text and includes a preface by the translator, as well as an introduction by legal scholar Roscoe Pound. The book is intended for students of law and legal philosophy, as well as anyone interested in understanding the theoretical underpinnings of the legal system.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

The importance to students of English law of some acquaintance with the principles of Roman jurisprudence is no longer insisted upon by a few, but is recognised by the majority of the leading men of the day. The appearance, therefore, for the first time, of an English translation of the best summary of the elementary principles of Roman law which has ever appeared scarcely requires apology. Nevertheless, an explanation of the more immediate objects which the translator has had in view seems requisite, as well to prevent disappointment on the part of the reader, as to justify the translator in the course he has adopted. Whoever reflects for a moment upon the present condition of English law, and upon the enormous quantity of the materials from which alone a useful knowledge of its actual state is obtainable, cannot fail to see that no person who has to master them will have time at his command seriously to study the details of the Roman, or any other system of jurisprudence. Such a study is itself sufficient to engross the whole time and attention of p.
