About this title

Synopsis

"Analysis Of M. Ortolan's Institutes Of Justinian: Including The History And Generalization Of Roman Law" by Thomas Lambert Mears. This compact, survey-style introduction analyzes M. Ortolan’s Institutes of Justinian, outlining its aims, sources, and method and presenting a three-part framework: History of Roman Law; Generalisation of Roman Law; and Commentary on Justinian’s Institutes. The work situates Ortolan’s compendium within a broad chronology of Roman law, tracing its development from legendary and early private-law origins through the kings, republic, and emperors. It explains how private and public law evolved, how authority shifted among priests, patricians, magistrates, and jurists, and how imperial edicts, rescripts, and codifications transformed legal practice. It surveys key institutions and terms (including the Twelve Tables, jurists, and praetorian edicts) and emphasizes the move from sacral procedure to more rational, formulary and jurisprudential forms. The volume also engages with Book IV (delicts and obligations) and Book II (property, possession, and real rights), and traces the imperial transition from legis actiones to formula to extraordinary cognition, within the broader reception of Roman law into late antique and Byzantine civil-law traditions.
