Dat Rigische Recht Und De Gemenen Stichtischen Rechte Ym Sticht Van Ryga Geheten Dat Ridder-Recht: Nebst Dionysii Fabri Formvlare Procvratorvm: Mit Einem Vollständigen Register by Gerhard Oelrichs presents a historic compilation of Riga’s municipal and knightly law. This edition includes the Rigische Recht, which encompasses the civil and political rules governing the Sticht of Riga and Livonia, alongside the Ridder-Recht, the knightly code detailing legal procedures and property rights. It features Dionysii Fabri’s Formulare Procuratorum and a complete register, providing extensive German and Latin legal terminology, cross-references, and notes. The text is organized into sections covering civil statutes, guardianship, wills and estates, marriages and legitimation, as well as procedures for lawsuits and enforcement. Additionally, it includes a substantial Glossarium of terms from the Sachsenspiegel tradition and a comprehensive Register compiling topics, articles, and cross-references. This work serves as an essential reference for scholars of medieval and early modern law in Riga and Livonia, and for those studying the transmission of German legal culture north of the Baltic.
