Paperback. Condition: Good. THE 2016 EDITION OF THE DIARY OF AN OLD SOUL HAS OVER 100 BEAUTIFUL NEW IMAGES FROM THE VICTORIAN ERA ACCOMPANYING THE TEXT. THIS IS NOT A HASTILY ASSEMBLED OCR SCAN OR FACSIMILE EDITION OF THIS WORK. EVERY LETTER AND WORD OF THE ORIGINAL HAS BEEN RESET AND CAREFULLY PROOFED FOR ACCURACY. I know hardly any other writer who seems to be closer, or more continually close, to the Spirit of Christ Himself. C. S. Lewis THE DIARY OF AN OLD SOUL is a series of beautifully written daily devotionals by one of the most prolific and celebrated Scottish writers and novelists of the Victorian era - George MacDonald (1824 - 1905). He was an internationally renowned speaker and author of faerie stories for adults and children who counted Mark Twain, Lewis Caroll, Ralph Waldo Emerson and John Greenleaf Whittier among his friends and admirers. Among his writings are Phantastes, At the Back of the North Wind, Sir Gibbie, The Princess and the Goblin, Lilith, and The Light Princess. He has been a major influence on writers of the 20th century, including G. K. Chesterton, W. H. Auden, Madeleine L'Engle and more. He directly influenced C. S. Lewis' Chronicles of Narnia, which includes The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe (a major new motion picture), and J. R. R. Tolkien's The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings. Day-by-day MacDonald reflects on the sweet and bitter, the happy and sad as he faces the challenges of living the true Christian life. This journal follows the original design of the 1880 edition. Each page of poetry is offset with an illustrated page for the recording of the reader's own thoughts throughout the year in the good company of George MacDonald. This would make a wonderful gift for a Pastor, Bible reader, Theology student, Seminarian, Diarist, or anyone interested in the Christian walk and Holiness. It would also be an ideal gift for anyone interested in Victorian poetry.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. THIS IS NOT A HASTILY ASSEMBLED SCAN OR FACSIMILE EDITION OF THIS WORK. EVERY LETTER AND WORD OF THE ORIGINAL HAS BEEN RESET AND CAREFULLY PROOFED FOR ACCURACY.Description: The Laws of the Twelve Tables; The Institutes of Gaius; Fragments of the Rules of Ulpian; and The Opinions of Paulus Synopsis: This edition of ROMAN CIVIL LAW, derived from S.P. Scott's monumental 17 volume work, THE CIVIL LAW (Central Trust Co., 1932) is a compilation of Roman laws spanning eight centuries beginning with the earliest organized body of laws known to the Romans, THE TWELVE TABLES (449 B.C.), and concluding with the surviving works of three of the five most important jurists of the second and third centuries A.D., GAIUS, ULPIAN and PAULUS. The Laws of the Twelve Tables formed the centerpiece of the constitution of the Roman Republic and the core of the mos maiorum. The Twelve Tables were literally drawn up on twelve ivory or brass tablets which were posted in the Forum Romanum so that all Romans could read and know them. They did not survive antiquity. What we have of them today are brief excerpts and quotations in other authors. Gaius (floruit AD 130-180) was a celebrated Roman jurist during the reigns of the emperors Hadrian, Antoninus Pius, Marcus Aurelius and Commodus. His INSTITUTES are a complete exposition of the elements of ancient Roman law and for this reason are most valuable to the historian of early institutions. Domitius Ulpianus (died 228), a Roman jurist of Tyrian ancestry wrote in the period between AD 211 and 222. FRAGMENTS of his works survive. As an author he is characterized by doctrinal exposition of a high order, judiciousness of criticism, and lucidity of arrangement, style and language. Julius Paulus (second century AD), also known as Paulus or Paul, was an influential Roman jurist whose OPINIONS feature prominently in Justinian's DIGEST. The Emperor Valentinian II (371-392), a Western Roman Emperor between the years 375-392, names Paulus in the Law of Citations, along with Gaius, Papinian, Ulpian and Modestinus, as one of only five jurists whose opinions were to be followed by judicial officers in deciding cases. The works of these jurists accordingly became the most important reference point for all subsequent legal decisions and profoundly affected the course of European and American law from antiquity to the present. This edition includes S.P. Scott's complete introduction to his 17 volume work, THE CIVIL LAW, all of his critical notes and a lengthy index.…
