Sources of the Roman Civil Law: An Introduction to the Institutes of Justinian (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Sources of the Roman Civil Law: An Introduction to the Institutes of Justinian

The Roman Civil Law, as a Branch of Professional Education, has now, in England, claimed its rightful place. Thinkers, in the present day, maintain that the training of the Lawyer should be something more than a conventional heaping up of forms, and precedents, and technical results. That the attempt to solve the great problems of General Justice and Morality, which underlie each special System, is essential to the framing of a legal and a judicial mind. By master ing principles, say the Members of the late Commission, the Student becomes more interested in, and obtains a steadier grasp of practical details.
