Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the Greek text known as the Paraphrase, which provides an explanation and interpretation of Justinian's Institutes, a fundamental legal textbook of the 6th century CE. The Paraphrase has long been attributed to the jurist Theophilus, but this book argues that it is likely the work of a different, unknown author working in the law school at Berytus. The author traces the development of the Paraphrase from its roots in the teaching of Roman law to its later use as a legal source, providing insights into the transmission of legal knowledge in the Byzantine Empire. The author also explores the Paraphrase's relationship to Justinian's legal reforms and its broader significance for the study of Roman law and legal history. Ultimately, this book sheds new light on the Paraphrase and its role in the development of legal thought.
