This groundbreaking book offers a fresh perspective on the study of Roman Law. It presents the initial findings of the European Research Council Project, Scriptores iuris Romani, which is dedicated to the creation of a new collection of Roman jurisprudence texts, emphasizing significant methodological challenges and innovative reconstructions of the profiles of some ancient jurists and works.
Jurists have played pivotal roles in the history of Rome, both as creators and interpreters of law, since the Republican Age and as collaborators with the principes during the Empire. However, their contributions have been undervalued by modern historians and legal experts due to the developments of Modern Law in England and Continental Europe. This book aims to rectify this imbalance. It presents an advanced paradigm for examining the most significant aspects of Roman law: the Justinian Digesta and other juridical late antique anthologies. The work offers a historiographic model that challenges prevailing perspectives and opens up a new path for legal and historical studies. Unlike existing literature, which primarily focuses on the Justinian Codification, this book emphasizes the individualities of ancient Roman Jurists. As such, it presents the authentic legal thought of these experts and authors: the ancient iuris prudentes.
This book will be of immense interest to researchers and academics in Classics, Ancient History, History of Law, and contemporary legal studies. It provides valuable insights into the rich tapestry of Roman legal history and offers a fresh approach to understanding the complexities of this ancient legal system.
