I tre volumi raccolgono i più importanti saggi di Carlo Augusto Cannata (1934-2019), emerito di diritto romano nell’Università di Milano. Seguendo le orme del suo maestro Giovanni Pugliese, Cannata ha sempre tenuto insieme le dimensioni del diritto romano, del diritto civile e del diritto comparato. Fra le sue molteplici monografie vanno ricordate: “Lineamenti di una storia della giurisprudenza europea”, “Per una storia della scienza giuridica europea”, “Sul problema della responsabilità nel diritto privato romano”, “L’inadempimento delle obbligazioni”. I volumi sono stati curati da Letizia Vacca, che di Cannata fu allieva nel suo periodo cagliaritano.

Slaves were property of their dominus, objects rather than persons, without rights: These are some components of our basic knowledge about Roman slavery. But Roman slavery was more diverse than we might assume from the standard wording about servile legal status. Numerous inscriptions as well as literary and legal sources reveal clear differences in the social structure of Roman slavery. There were numerous groups and professions who shared the status of being unfree while inhabiting very different worlds. The papers in this volume pose the question of whether and how legal texts reflected such social differences within the Roman servile community. Did the legal system reinscribe social diff...
This volume addresses the study of family law and society in Europe, from medieval to contemporary ages. It examines the topic from a legal and social point of view. Furthermore, it investigates those aspects of the new family legal history that have not commonly been examined in depth by legal historians. The volume provides a new 'global' interpretative key of the development of family law in Europe. It presents essays about family and the Christian influence, family and criminal law, family and civil liability, filiation (legitimate, natural and adopted children), and family and children labour law. In addition, it explores specific topics related to marriage, such as the matrimonial property regime from a European comparative perspective, and impediments to marriage, such as bigamy. The book also addresses topics including family, society and European juridical science.

While these are established touchpoints used by historians and supported by a vast bibliographies...
