Overview

"Roman law constitutes one of the most important and enduring legacies from the ancient world to the modern. It has helped to shape many of the legal systems of today, and continues to provide an invaluable introduction to the study of legal concepts. The book provides students with an exposition of Roman civil law and procedure, setting the law in the context of the history of Rome and keeping the use of Latin phrases to a minimum. A major feature of the book is the use of texts from the ultimate source of Roman law, the ""Digest of Justinian"". The texts serve to illustrate the law and to make it more vivid for the reader. Emphasis is placed on the influence of Roman law on modern systems, especially English law."
