E[manuel] W[ölffel] & Balthasar Otto Bosseck, Flensburg 1717. 4to. [24]+180+[24]+[184]+[8]+208+280+118 pages. Titlepages (2) and the dedication to King Frederik IV printed in red and black. Contemporary brown calf binding. Old name on titlepage. Binding superficially worn, but intact. First pages with wormholes at top end. Slight spotting to top-edge. * The third issue of the edition in Low German - Platdeutsch - of the Jutland Law from 1241, by far the most important of the medieval Danish law complexes. While the Jutland Law was finally replaced by The Danish Law of King Christian V in 1683, the medieval predecessor continued to function in the Duchy of Schleswig, which situated as it was between Denmark and the Holy Roman Empire was ruled by both the Danish king and a range of German-speaking dukes in common. This double administration ended i 1713 when the full duchy came under Danish rule again. The law continued to function even after Schleswig was conquered by Prussia in 1864 and was finally abolished as of January 1st 1900. This version was first published in 1593. This third edition is accompanied by a detailed commentary by Joachim Blüting.
