This book traces the history of Roman law and legal system from its roots in the Roman Republic through codification under Justinian to its reception in Germany and eventual abolition. Once the common law in Germany, Roman law, despite its abolition, has maintained its importance for German legal thought. Indeed, the science of law in Germany is largely founded on the law of the Pandects (Roman private law). As such, this book provides an introduction to the study of law which is essential reading for academics, students, and practitioners alike. The insights provided in this book are invaluable in understanding the development of law and its relevance to the modern world.
