Much of this genre is humorous; it includes such forms as law lyrics whimsical dissertations reports in verse and facetious precedents. Other examples such as proverbs and memorial verses have a didactic intent. A final group includes elegantly written legal works and examples based on literary conventions. Moving from the textual to the visual Murray also considers illustrated law books and legal livres de luxe.

2005. ISBN-13: 9781584773931; ISBN-10: 1584773936. A "Romantic" Conception of International Law Ward Robert. An Enquiry Into the Foundation and History of the Law of Nations in Europe From the Time of the Greeks and Romans to the Age of Grotius. Dublin: Printed by P. Wogan P. Byrne W. Jones and J. Rice 1795. 2 volumes. lii 236; ii 379 pp. Reprinted 2005 by The Lawbook Exchange Ltd. ISBN-13: 9781584773931. ISBN-10: 1584773936. Hardcover. New. $150. Since the seventeenth century the law of nations was dominated by the theory of natural law which posited the existence of legal principles shared by all ages places and peoples. This theory shaped the work of such major jurists as Grotius Pufendorf and Selden. It was enshrined during the eighteenth century by advocates of the Enlightenment. Ward 1765-1846 rejected this theory. A Romantic he had no use for universal systems. Instead he appreciated the uniqueness of cultures and the differences between the past and the present. One of the first to apply Romantic ideas to the subject he treated the law of nations as a malleable concept that changed considerably since antiquity. unknown books

New. $24.95 An English translation with a thorough index of Justinian's Institutes. After assuming the throne of the East Roman or Byzantine Empire in 527 Justinian Favius Petrus Sabbatius Justinianus A.D. 483-565 sought to revise the most important legal writings of the original republic and empire including the body of laws that had accumulated during the last 300 years. His revision of the Institutes of Gaius c.A.D. 115-c.180 is perhaps the most significant volume to emerge from this program. Written around A.D. 161 it is an elementary treatise on Roman private law that served as a standard text for 300 years. Justinian's revision brought the original up to date while maintaining its qualities of clear exposition and perspicuous judgment. It was later combined with three other revisions the Digest Code and Novels to form the Corpus Juris Civilis a profound influence on European law from the tenth century onwards.

Accordingly much space is devoted to setting forth their ideas and ideals to recording their habits their daily walk and conversation their studies their recreation their manner of comporting themselves in the various relationships of life.

The Rest of the Fourth and the Remaining Nine Parts by John Farquhar Fraser Esq.

"The best and last edition which has superseded all older ones is in English; the whole thirteen Parts in 6 vols. 8vo. London 1826." Wallace 194-195. This edition is also noteworthy for the inclusion of Coke's complete prefaces. Sir Edward Coke 1552-1643 was considered to be the greatest legal practitioner of his day. Written between 1572 and 1616 The Reports are not reports in the conventional sense but highly detailed anthologies of precedents organized according to the cases they consider. In each instance Coke assembled a large body of cases outlined their arguments and explained the reasons for the judgment using it as a basis for a statement of general principles. They are in effect a series of treatises on the points of law adjudged and not merely notes for citation.

Spartan Education offers a fascinating account of Harvard Law School from the turn of the century to the 1940s colorful sketches of his professors Mr. Cadwallader and a summary of his "Spartan" approach to pedagogy. Warren also includes the texts of various addresses and articles dealing with Harvard legal history the American Bar and political topics. This is a reprint of the 1942 edition which was strictly limited to 1000 copies. Despite requests for additional copies Warren refused to reissue the book. He published an edition of extracts instead however in order to address these requests while keeping his word. "I believe in discipline. From boyhood days on I have sought to discipline my own mind pen and tongue. And throughout my service on the Law Faculty I have sought to discipline the minds pens and tongues of the students. I have never suffered fools gladly and regard such sufferance as mischievous. Therefore `Spartan Education' seemed an appropriate title. As I review my life I find the source of greatest satisfaction in my belief that there are today ten thousand men who are leading more useful and successful lives than they would be leading if my Spartan training had not played a substantial part in the molding of their minds; and that most if not all of them now recognize that to be the fact and are grateful." -- Preface ix Edward H. Warren 1873-1945 was a legendary professor at Harvard Law School. Known as "Bull" Warren for his aggressive and often vicious teaching methods he was the primary model for Professor Kingsfield in John Jay Osborn Jr.'s novel The Paper Chase. Warren attended Harvard College from 1891 to 1895 and Harvard Law School from 1897 to 1900 where his principal instructors were Ames Gray Smith and Thayer. After four years at Strong and Cadwalader he joined the Harvard Law faculty where he remained until his retirement. unknown books

Hardcover. New. $175. Edited by his son of the same name 1855-1891 the first volume being a memoir by his brother the author George Ticknor Curtis 1812-1894 the second containing selections from his writings. Benjamin Robbins Curtis 1809-1874 an eminent Massachusetts jurist was appointed to the United States Supreme Court in 1851 where he achieved his greatest fame in 1857 by his dissenting opinion in the Dred Scott case. Curtis argued in a lengthy opinion that residence of a slave with his owner in free territory conferred freedom that the slave could vindicate on his return to slave territory. He claimed also that the Court could not try the case because a slave was not considered a citizen. After resigning his seat after a series of acrimonious disputes about the case with Chief Justice Taney he achieved eminence as an attorney one who was esteemed for his dignity coolness and clear logical mind. Indeed he was considered one of the leaders of the American Bar arguing fifty-four cases before the Supreme Court and eighty before the supreme court of Massachusetts. The impeachment trial of Andrew Johnson in which he served as the president's leading counsel was perhaps his finest hour. Many considered his opening statement for the defense to be his greatest forensic effort. The second volume consists of reprints of his articles and a selection of his addresses and judicial statements. See Dictionary of American Biography 610-611. unknown books

His superb translation is noteworthy in part because it was published the year the Code was enacted. As such it has the advantage of being in a style of English that is an idiomatic contemporary to the original French. Many scholars believe that this is the finest translation of the Code. Indeed they have found it to be more accurate than the official Louisiana edition. The philological basis of his 393-page introduction had a profound influence on the subsequent development of classical British legal ethnography. Barrett's index which follows the style of English lawyer's common-place books and abridgments is a thorough guide to the Code. unknown books

Butler Sir Geoffrey; Simon Maccoby
The Development of International Law
2010. ISBN-13: 9781584772156; ISBN-10: 1584772158. "One of the Most Valuable Contributions to the History of International Law" Butler Sir Geoffrey and Simon Maccoby. The Development of International Law. Originally published: London: Longmans Green and Co. 1928. xxxv 566 pp. Reprinted 2003 2010 by The Lawbook Exchange Ltd. ISBN-13: 9781584772156; ISBN-10: 1584772158. Hardcover. New. $59.95 Writing in the Yale Law Review J.P. Bullington observes that "the most striking feature about this work is the method of treatment--quite the most effective which has yet been employed in dealing with the subject. Believing that the changes in international law have been the reflection of changes in the political theory and practice of states the author has divided his work into three major periods--the Age of the Prince the Age of the Judge and the Age of the Concert. Based on a wide knowledge of history filtered through an objective and realistic brain this book must take its place as one of the most valuable contributions to the history of international law." Yale Law Review 38:843 quoted in Marke A Catalogue of the Law Collection at New York University 1953 566. unknown books
