A History of Roman Law: With a Commentary on the Institutes of Gaius and Justinian is a book written by Andrew Stephenson in 1912. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the development of Roman law from its origins to the time of Justinian, the Byzantine Emperor. The author examines the various sources of Roman law, including the Twelve Tables, the works of jurists, and the edicts of magistrates. Stephenson also provides a detailed commentary on the Institutes of Gaius and Justinian, two of the most important legal texts of the Roman Empire. The Institutes of Gaius is a legal textbook that was written in the 2nd century AD, while the Institutes of Justinian is a compilation of Roman law created under the direction of Justinian in the 6th century AD. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which covers a different period in the history of Roman law. The author discusses the development of Roman law during the Republic, the influence of Greek philosophy on Roman law, and the role of the emperor in shaping the legal system. Overall, A History of Roman Law: With a Commentary on the Institutes of Gaius and Justinian is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of law and legal systems. The book provides a detailed and insightful analysis of the development of Roman law, and its influence on modern legal systems.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
