Title page in red and black Later mottled calf raised bands compartments decorated in gilt leather spine label. Rubbing modern restoration to leather. Contemporary signature to front flyleaf and title. Title page creased and tender. Moderate toning contemporary ink underscoring. Scattered spotting. The Corpus Juris or Iuris Civilis "Body of Civil Law" is a collection of fundamental works in jurisprudence issued from 529 to 534 by order of Justinian I Eastern Roman Emperor. Its influence on common law legal systems has been much smaller although some basic concepts from the Corpus have survived through Norman law – such as the contrast especially in the Institutes between statute and custom. The Corpus continues to have a major influence on public international law. Its four parts thus constitute the foundation documents of the Western legal tradition. In the Renaissance Justinian’s Code was translated into vernacular languages and formed the base for the legal system for the majority of countries up until the 19th century.

1824ref. 760L11London: John Murray 1824. First edition. Leather. Good Only. 6.5" by 4". Not Stated. A first edition set of James Morier's best known novel. An unusual copy with seven lithographs to volume II. Seven plates to volume II which is unusual as no illustrated editions of this work have been recorded. The plates resemble the style of the author's own illustrations as he was an amateur sketch artist. These sketches suggest an amandoned intention to issue an illustrated edition of this work. Bound without the half-titles. James Justinian Morier was a renowned British diplomat and author who entered the diplomatic service through the influence of his uncle Admiral William Waldegrave1st Baron Radstock. First visiting Iran in 1808 as secretary to Sir Harford Jones-Brydges Morier had an extensive career in the country and wrote several travel works of his experiences that were widely popular. This picaresque romance of Persian life was written after Morier retired from his diplomatic career in Iran. The work drew heavily on Morier's personal knowledge of Persia and its people that he had acquired on the British embassy staff at Tehran. The novel hence widely influenced English ideas of Persia and its Persian translation even led to the development of the modern Persian novel of social criticism.An unusual copy of this work in need of a sympathetic rebind. In a contemporary half calf binding. Externally worn. Loss to the backstrips of all volumes worse to volume III. Volume III is also lacking the bottom spine label. Spine is lifting to volume II. Pages 343-346 to volume II are detached but present. Good Only John Murray hardcover

ref. 4523Italy 1325. Good. Manuscript on vellum large folio 450 x 345 mm main text 42-lines extensive glosses written in black faded and almost completely illegible. Extracted from a bookbinding very worn. SPECIMINA PALEOGRAPHICA AN EXCELLENT MANUSCRIPT LEAF FOR TEACHING. OUR MANUSCRIPT IS PARTIALLY UNFINISHED THUS PROVIDING VALUABLE EVIDENCE OF MANUSCRIPT PRODUCTION AND MIS-EN-PAGE. Mise-en-page refers to the strategic layout and design of the page encompassing ruling margins columns and the placement of text initials and decoration acting as the blueprint for the scribe and artist to create a functional aesthetically pleasing book with significant developments seen in adapting layouts for commentaries like glosses as here and the shift from multi-column to single-column formats over time. Our scribe clearly followed an exemplar as is attested by the red rubrics at the bottom of the verso after which there are only blank spaces. Furthermore one the outer right margin of the recto can be seen the scribe's horizontal rulings in plummet. The text of this large tantalizing and extremely challenging leaf which was extracted from a bookbinding contains three chapters from Book II of the Codex of Justinian or the Corpus juris civilis. The Corpus juris civilis is the modern name for a collection of fundamental works in jurisprudence issued from 529 to 534 by order of Justinian I Eastern Roman Emperor. Shortly after Justinian became emperor in 527 he decided the Empire's legal system needed organization and consolidation. Early in his reign Justinian appointed an official Tribonian to oversee this task. The project as a whole became known as Corpus juris civilis or the Justinian Code. "The Codex of Justinian is together with the Digest the core of the great Byzantine compilation of Roman law called the Corpus Iuris Civilis. The Codex gathers legal proclamations issued by Roman Emperors from the second to the sixth centuries C.E. Its influence on subsequent legal development in the medieval and early modern world has been almost incalculable." Simon Corcoran et al. The Codex of Justinian vol. 2 Cambridge University Press 2016. We were delighted to find an excellent and whimsical drollerie mischeviously placed at the beginning of Lib. II Tit. 44. THE TEXT: Liber II Tit. 43 CJ 2.43: Si minor se majorem dixerit vel probatus fuerit "Where a minor alleges that he is of age"; This title deals with the legal consequences for a minor specifically someone under 25 years old who misrepresents themselves as an adult major to enter into a contract or transaction. Liber II Tit. 44 CJ 2.44: Si saepius in integrum restitutio postuletur "When complete restitution is demanded more than once" with Gloss: Imperator aurel "Eos qui veniam aetatis impetraverunt" etc.; Imperator Constantinus "Omnes adulescentes.
