The report of a commission established by Article V of 1840 to codify Hungarian criminal law and propose reforms. The commission included important Hungarian jurists such as Ferenc Deak an important figure in the Hungarian liberal movement and Jozsef Eotvos a progressive statesman who wrote on prison reform. Ultimately its proposals were not adopted but the report remains important for its ambitious scope and humane enlightened ideas regarding the treatment of crime and criminals. The owner behind the ink stamp is Gaal Gaszton 1868-1932 the prominent Hungarian politician who served as president of the National Assembly. The ownership inscription to the right begins with a family name as expected for Hungarian names and that name is Barany. Gaal Gaszton's mother was Barany Matild 1845-1884 which suggests he may have inherited or otherwise received this book through his mother's line. Through his father Gaal Gaszton was a member of the Gaal family an ancient noble lineage connected to the municipality of Gyula in Hungary.
