Specimen Inaugurale Juridicum De Aestimatione Rerum Quarum Nomine in Avariam Communem Contribuitur: Quod, Favente Summo Numine, Ex Auctoritate ... Amplissimi Senatus Academi (Latin Edition) - Softcover
Synopsis
This book, a meticulous exploration of a legal argument surrounding maritime contribution in the Middle Ages, unveils how shipmasters, and merchants navigated liability, and compensation for sacrifice and loss. The study evaluates historical practices and legal doctrines, examining how compensation for lost or damaged goods was established. The author argues that the true value of goods to be contributed to general average should be the price they would have fetched at the destination port had the sacrifice not been made. This argument, supported by a thorough analysis of medieval laws, statutes, and legal commentaries, challenges the prevailing view that goods should contribute based on their purchase price or value at the time of the sacrifice. The author's comprehensive research and skillful analysis shed new light on the development of maritime law and the principles of equity and fairness that underpinned it. This book is essential reading for maritime historians, legal scholars, and anyone interested in the evolution of commercial law.
