A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Harvard, where, I am assured, they were exceedingly well received. The success which these lectures met with seems to have suggested to Professor Hadley their publication. At least after his death, November 14,1872, his manuscript gave indications of such a plan. It was written out in that very minute, yet clear and beautiful, handwriting of his, the very sight of which gave pleasure, with scarcely an erasure or interlineation. The whole subject lay as in sunlight before his mind, as he began to write, and, having probably made more than one copy of his lectures, he had almost nothing in style, method, or choice of material, to alter. Proiessor Hadley had qualities of mind remarkably well fitted for such an exposition of Roman law as these lectures contain. In all his work as a college man and as a writer, in his conversation even, he ever showed uncommon clearness, beauty of method, power of expressing the exact idea in appropriate words, a certain joyousness in communicating knowledge, and a simplicity of purpose, which looked away from himself.
