Synopsis
An Introduction To The Science Of The Law: Shewing The Advantages Of A Law Education, Grounded On The Learning Of Lord Coke's Commentaries Upon Littleton's Tenures, Or As They Are Called By Way Of Distinction, "The Institute", With A View Either To The Bar, The Senate, Or The Duties Of Magistracy" by Frederick Ritso. This work argues for reform in legal education, criticizing the prevailing method of copying Blackstone's Commentaries and apprenticing in law offices. It advocates studying Lord Coke's Institute as a foundation for understanding the law's principles, its historical development, and its connection to history and moral philosophy. The Preface explains the difficulties beginners face, the need for a rational, demonstrative approach to legal doctrine, and the plan to illustrate the Institute with a method of reading and discussion rather than rote memorization. It includes extensive critical examination of Blackstone's approach, the separation of feudal and commercial property, the distinction between releases and droits, and the value of translating and analyzing fundamental propositions. The book also sets out a program for methodical study, including a proposed structure for supplementary appendices and a recommended reading list for students and gentlemen.
