The facts that another edition of this book has been called for, and that the second edition has been translated into Portuguese indicate that it makes an appeal to students who are attending lectures upon the I nstitutes. It does not pretend to be a systematic history of the Roman law, noris it intended in any way to take the place of a commentary on the Institutes of Justinian. It is rather a series of chapters on problems, mainly historical, which confront the student who is beginning the Roman law. I ts aim is to be complementary to a course of lectures, and to supply a historical backorround. The historical notices contained in the Institutes of Justinian are so fragmentary that without more information the student does not see the law in its true perspective. He has to be reminded that the law of Justinian is the culmination of a long history, and that the Romans started with a little body of A ryan customs, out of which their extraordinary genius was able by slow degrees to shape a legal system of the greatest refinement. Unfortunately the pressure of other subjects renders it impossible for most students to make a detailed study of the history of Roman law. If the introduction is not to encroach upon the time assigned to the practical law it must be kept within narrow limits. The difficulty is largely one of selection.
