Excerpt from The Elements of Jurisprudence
The legal systems of the continent owe to their common derivation from the law of Rome, not only a uniform legal nomenclature, but also a generally accepted method, which at once assigns any newly developed principle to its proper place, and has greatly facilitated the orderly exposition of those systems in the form of codes.

In England, on the other hand, legal nomenclature is a mosaic of many languages, and the law itself, as expounded by Coke and Blackstone, except so far as it has been deduced with much logical punctiliousness from the theory of feudal tenure, is little more than a collection of isolated rules, strung together, if at all, only by some slender thread of analogy.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book makes accessible the foundational ideas which underpin the intricate array of legal rules that govern virtually every aspect of our lives. Rooted in the legal philosophies of ancient Rome, law is conceptualised not as a collection of isolated rules but as an organic system serving to categorise and resolve human conflicts. While its focus is on English common law, tracing its evolution from Roman, feudal and ecclesiastical sources, this book provides insights into the legal systems of other jurisdictions and the increasingly important domain of international law. Though focused on the historical development of the subject, the author also explores the ethical complexities that lie at the heart of our legal systems, arguing for a nuanced understanding of the relationship between law and morality. Ultimately, the author posits that law is a powerful tool for shaping human behaviour, integral to the smooth functioning of society, and deserving of our careful study and understanding.
