Synopsis

Excerpt from Introduction to Roman Law

The arrangement follows the order of the. Roman Institutional writers. They arranged law in three groups - (i) law concerning per sons; (2) law concerning things; and (3) law concerning actions. Practically they sub divided 'things' into - (i) property; (2) obligation (3) inheritance. Inheritance' is discussed in the Institutes after property,' and before 'obligation'; but it is more convenient to take it after obligation.' As the present work is intended to serve as a companion to the Institutes of Justinian, the arrangement of justinian has been, with that exception, substantially followed.

In this Edition a Supplementary Glossary explaining the technical terms and phrases employed in the Institutes will, it is hoped, prove convenient and useful to students.
