Synopsis
The big ideas behind law, explained clearly for students and curious readers. This edition presents Roscoe Pound’s approach to jurisprudence, outlining how legal systems form, function, and evolve. Readers will gain a practical sense of how different methods—analytical, historical, and philosophical—shape our understanding of law and its role in society.
The material surveys major legal traditions and sources, from Roman and Civil law to common law, canon law, and international law. It also traces how law relates to ethics, the state, and social life, with careful emphasis on concepts like ownership, possession, and obligations. The text is structured to illuminate the history and theory that underpin modern legal thinking, without assuming prior specialist knowledge.
What you’ll experience
- Clear explanations of how different schools study jurisprudence
- A concise map of major legal traditions and their modern influence

Ideal for readers of legal history, philosophy of law, or anyone exploring how legal systems organize social life. This edition is well suited for students seeking a solid introduction to Pound’s perspectives on law and its foundations.

Présentation de l'éditeur
Excerpt from Outlines of Lectures on Jurisprudence
As a number of editions of Hollands Jurisprudence are in common use, it is not advisable to cite pages in referring to that work. Unfortunately, the paragraphs are not numbered. I have attempted to point out the particular portions of the text referred to in such a way that any edition may be used.
