Synopsis

This book reveals the evolution of Roman law from its prehistoric origins to the fall of the Western Roman Empire. The author argues that Roman law was not a static code handed down from on high, but a dynamic and ever-changing body of rules that reflected the social, economic, and political realities of the Roman people. Through a careful examination of the historical record, the author traces the development of key legal concepts such as property, contract, and crime, and shows how these concepts were shaped by the changing needs of Roman society. By placing Roman law within its broader historical context, this book provides a new and insightful perspective on the development of one of the most influential legal systems in history.
