ref. 12231763 pour les trois premiers, et le tome quatre s'intitule supplement à la collection de MR DENISART lui, date de 1768 .4 vol. in-4, pl. veau brun moucheté de l'époque, dos à nerfs ornés, tit. et tom. dorés sur pces brunes, tr. rouges, impression en deux colonnes, roulette sur les coupes, vignettes et culs de lampe, (qq. épidermures et éraflures estompées sur les plats, coiffes un peu courtes, coins émoussés avec petits manques), agréable exemplaire malgré les défauts indiqués,Jusqu'au milieu du XVIIIème siècle les Recueils d'arrêts étaient généralement présentés par leurs auteurs sous une forme chronologique ou thématique assez lâche. Sous l'influence de l'esprit encyclopédiste, deux auteurs prirent le parti de présenter leur recueil d'arrêts sous une forme alphabétique. Brillon fut le premier et Denisart suivit. Au total cela donne des textes plus complets sur le plan jurisprudentiel que les dictionnaires classiques tels ceux de Ferrière. De surcroît le texte de Denisart est d'une particulière qualité qui en a fait une des sources de référence pour l'étude de l'ancien droit. Sur la foi des indications de Dupin nous avions indiqué dans un précédent catalogue (n° 11-60) que l'édition de 1771 était la dernière.
