Excerpt from A Compendium of the Modern Roman Law: Founded Upon the Treatises of Puchta, Von Vangerow, Arndts, Franz Moehler, and the Corpus Juris Civilis
In this country, we believe we are correct in stating that nothing hitherto has been done for the systematic teaching of the Roman Law. In laying stress upon the importance of this study, we do not wish to depreciate the Common Law of our native land, for that law has de rived its best elements from the Roman Law. Savigny replied to those who charged him with a desire to supersede the Jurisprudence of Germany as follows: For us Germans, says he - (let us read, English men) as for many other nations, this foreign element, centuries ago, became a part of our legal life, and thus mistaken, or half understood, it Often had pernicious effects, where, if rightly apprehended, it would enrich our proper legal life.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
