Law and Legal Process
"The core theme of the conference was Law and Legal Process, broadly interpreted to include all aspects of the interactions between legal practice and legal doctrine. The present volume is a selection of the papers delivered on that theme, reflecting the many ways in which these interactions have occurred in the history of the common law. They range between the study of a single case (Holmes) to the wide-ranging consideration of the nature of law at the interface of substance and process (Donahue)"--
The Cambridge Comparative History of Ancient Law
The Cambridge Comparative History of Ancient Law is the first of its kind in the field of comparative ancient legal history. Written collaboratively by a dedicated team of international experts, each chapter offers a new framing and understanding of key legal concepts, practices and historical contexts across five major legal traditions of the ancient world. Stretching chronologically across more than three and a half millennia, from the earliest, very fragmentary, proto-cuneiform tablets (3200-3000 BCE) to the Tang Code of 652 CE, the volume challenges earlier comparative histories of ancient law / societies, at the same time as opening up new areas for future scholarship across a wealth of surviving ancient Near Eastern, Indian, Chinese, Greek and Roman primary source evidence. Topics covered include 'law as text', legal science, inter-polity relations, law and the state, law and religion, legal procedure, personal status and the family, crime, property and contract.
