Aquesta lliçó posa en relleu la importància històrica del renaixement del dret romà a l’Occident medieval, el qual, juntament amb el dret canònic i l’obra dels juristes bolonyesos, es va difondre per tot Europa amb el nom de ius commune. Molt més que un fenomen estrictament jurídic, va significar un veritable canvi cultural l’ona expansiva del qual es va fer sentir en tots els àmbits de la societat medieval. This lesson highlights the historical importance of the revival of Roman law in the medieval West. Along with canon law and the work of the Bolognese jurists, it spread throughout Europe under the name of ius commune. Much more than a strictly legal phenomenon, it brought about a true cultural change, which affected all areas of medieval society.

Upon its original publication in 1946, this work represented a new approach to medieval studies, offering indispensable analysis to the historian of legal, political and social ideas. Research into the original sources leads the author through unexplored realms of medieval thought. By contrasting contemporary opinions with those of his central figure, Lucas de Penna, he comprehensively presents the medieval idea of law – then regarded as the concrete manifestation of abstract justice. The intensity of medieval academic life is revealed in the heated controversies, whilst medieval criminology foreshadows modern developments. A significant discovery is the astonishingly great reliance which Continental scholars placed upon English thought. A challenge to certain current misconceptions, this book shows the resourcefulness of medieval thinking and the extent to which modern ideas were foreshadowed in the fourteenth century, a time when the ideas of law and liberty were identical.

This book discusses in detail how medieval scholars reacted to the casuistic discussions in the inherited Roman texts, particularly the Digest of Justinian. It shows how they developed medieval Roman law into a system of rules that formed a universal common law for Western Europe. Because there has been little research published in English beyond grand narratives on the history of law in Europe, this book fills an important gap in the literature.With a focus on how the medieval Roman lawyers systematised the Roman sources through detailed discussions of specific areas of law.

In The Laws of Late Medieval Italy Mario Ascheri examines the features of the Italian legal world and explains why it should be regarded as a foundation for the future European continental system. The deep feuds among the Empire, the Churches unified by Roman papacy and the flourishing cities gave rise to very new legal ideas with the strong cooperation of the universities, beginning with that of Bologna. The teaching of Roman law and of the new papal laws, which quickly spread all over Europe, built up a professional group of lawyers and notaries which shaped the new, 'modern', public institutions, including efficient courts (like the Inquisition). Politically divided, Italy was partly unified by the legal system, so-called (Continental) common law (ius commune), which became a pattern for all of Europe onwards. Early modern Europe had for long time to work with it, and parts of it are still alive as a common cultural heritage behind a new European law system.

Bracton's relation to the Roman Law is one of the most interesting questions in historical jurisprudence. In this, as in other matters connected with the early history of the English law, Bracton is the most important authority. The period at which he wrote, his ability as a jurist, the richness of matter in his work, all combine to make it necessary to exhaust the sources of knowledge to be derived from him. An index & marginal notes have been added to the translation, & the table of contents has been enlarged.

Who owns the tabula picta, the painted tablet? The owner of the tablet? Or to the person who painted it? This meticulous analysis of how medieval jurists responded to these questions is a major a contribution to the history of the proprietary rights to artistic works and to the history of ideas.
