Synopsis

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.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

My dear Loed Justice, Ten years ago I dedicated to you, as my master in the law, the first edition of this book, as the first fruits of your teaching. The time has come when I may without presumption take on myself to explain the meaning of those words more fully than the compass of a formal dedication admits. In your chambers, and from your example, I learnt that root of the matter which too many things in common practice conspire to obscure, that the law is neither a trade nora solemn jugglery, but a science. By your help and encouragement I was led to acquaint myself with that other great historical system which to this day divides, broadly speaking, the civilized world with the Common Law ;to regard it not as a mere collection of rules and maxims accidentally like or unlike our own, but as the living growth of similar ideas under dii Ferent conditions, and to perceive that the Eoman law deserves the study and reverence of English lawyers, not merely as scholars and citizens of the world, but inasmuch as both in its history and its scientific development it is capable of throwing a light beyond price on the dark places of our own doctrine.
