    Condition: as new. Hilversum : Verloren, 2014. Paperback. 179 pp. (Pro memorie, ISSN 1566-7146 ; [jrg. 16], afl. 2 (2014)). Uitgave van de Stichting tot Uitgaaf der Bronnen van het Oud-Vaderlandse Recht. - Lange tijd was de aandacht voor de band tussen recht en beeld of tussen recht en kunst vooral een gelegenheidszaak. Naar aanleiding van een herdenking of verjaardag werd vaak een tentoonstelling met bijbehorende catalogus gemaakt en daarbij werkten juristen, rechtshistorici en kunsthistorici samen. Deze rijk geïllustreerde uitgave over de meest uiteenlopende aspecten van ons rechtshistorisch verleden laat zien dat er veel is veranderd. In Rechtsgeschiedenis in beeld staan de rechtsiconografie en de rechtsiconologie centraal. Vijftien bijdragen geven de resultaten weer van speurtochten vanuit verschillende disciplines naar de relaties tussen recht en kunst. Die ontdekkingstocht leidt tot pareltjes van rechtscultuur. Het themanummer bevat bijdragen van onder andere M. Desmet (Gentse schepenen van Gedele), C. Hogenstijn (stadhuis Deventer), S. Roes (collecties van notarissen), W. van der Sanden (galgenplaatsen), J. Smits (filatelie), J. Spruit (muziek), M. Van Stiphout (pater Hubertus), B. Van der Velden (Arnolfini), A. Verfaillie (Ensors Goede rechters), R. Verstegen (Esther/Ahasverus), O. Vervaart (grafmonumenten), P. Brood (een executiekleed) en G. Martyn (Hubert Parez). Condition : as new copy.

    Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - The legality principle characterizes all western legal systems, and it has become an integral part of the Western rule of law and the international human rights law. The principle dates back to enlightened jurists such as Cesare Beccaria and to social contract thinkers such as Charles de Secondat de Montesquieu, according to whom judges were to act only as the mouthpiece of the statutory law. Paul Johann Anselm von Feuerbach, the inventor of the famous maxim nullum crimen, nulla poena sine lege, developed these thoughts further. The emergence of the legality principle links closely to the teachings on the division of powers. The studies of this volume cover most of Europe from England, Italy and Spain to Sweden, Russia and England, and both the South and North American continents. In most parts of Europe, the nineteenth-century criminal law reforms form an integral part of the 'liberal' agenda. These changes took place, however, at different times in different parts of the Western world, and for slightly different reasons. Comparative legal history shows, furthermore, that the roots of the principle date much further back in history than the eighteenth century. Before the formulation of the legality principle, written statutes already played a significant role in the criminal law in many parts of the Western world. The articles of the volume, written by the foremost experts on comparative legal history, demonstrate that the attitudes and practices toward written statutes as sources of criminal law varied greatly from one region to another. In most parts of the European continent judicial arbitration was carefully defined in legal scholarship (Italy, France), whereas in some regions written law played an important role from early on (Sweden). Although the nineteenth century was fundamental in shaping the legality principle, in some countries its breakthrough remained even then far from complete (Russia, the United States).; The legality principle characterizes all western legal systems, and it has become an integral part of the Western rule of law and the international human rights law.

    Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The contributions to this volume were written by historians, legal historians and art historians, each using his or her own methods and sources, but all concentrating on topics from the broad subject of historical legal iconography. How have the concepts of law and justice been represented in (public) art from the Late Middle Ages onwards Justices and rulers had their courtrooms, but also churches, decorated with inspiring images. At first, the religious influence was enormous, but starting with the Early Modern Era, new symbols and allegories began appearing. Throughout history, art has been used to legitimise the act of judging, but artists have also satirised the law and the lawyers; architects and artisans have engaged in juridical and judicial projects and, in some criminal cases, convicts have even been sentenced to produce works of art. The book illustrates and contextualises the various interactions between law and justice on the one hand, and their artistic representations inpaintings, statues, drawings, tapestries, prints and books on the other.…

    Condition: Sehr gut. Zustand: Sehr gut | Seiten: 571 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | This volume surveys 150 law books of fundamental importance in the history of Western legal literature and culture. The entries are organized in three sections: the first dealing with the transitional period of fifteenth-century editions of medieval authorities, the second spanning the early modern period from the sixteenth to the eighteenth century, and the third focusing on the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The contributors are scholars from all over the world. Each ¿old book¿ is analyzed by a recognized specialist in the specific field of interest. Individual entries give a short biography of the author and discuss the significance of the works in the time and setting of their publication, and in their broader influence on the development of law worldwide. Introductory essays explore the development of Western legal traditions, especially the influence of the English common law, and of Roman and canon law on legal writers, and the borrowings and interaction between them.The book goes beyond the study of institutions and traditions of individual countries to chart a broader perspective on the transmission of legal concepts across legal, political, and geographical boundaries. Examining the branches of this genealogical tree of books makes clear their pervasive influence on modern legal systems, including attempts at rationalizing custom or creating new hybrid systems by transplanting Western legal concepts into other jurisdictions.…

    Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -The contributions to this volume were written by historians, legal historians and art historians, each using his or her own methods and sources, but all concentrating on topics from the broad subject of historical legal iconography. How have the concepts of law and justice been represented in (public) art from the Late Middle Ages onwards Justices and rulers had their courtrooms, but also churches, decorated with inspiring images. At first, the religious influence was enormous, but starting with the Early Modern Era, new symbols and allegories began appearing. Throughout history, art has been used to legitimise the act of judging, but artists have also satirised the law and the lawyers; architects and artisans have engaged in juridical and judicial projects and, in some criminal cases, convicts have even been sentenced to produce works of art. The book illustrates and contextualises the various interactions between law and justice on the one hand, and their artistic representations inpaintings, statues, drawings, tapestries, prints and books on the other.Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 484 pp. Englisch.…
