Description

This is the fourth by Honore in a series of studies of Roman lawyers and legal sources based on an analysis of style and working methods. The writings of Ulpian surpass in volume those of any other Roman jurist, and it is from his masterly summary of Roman law that later generations have drawn so much of their impression of the system. Honore here convincingly distinguishes Ulpian's genuine works from those mistakenly attributed to him, and suggests an ingenious hypothesis about his method of compostiion and the dates of the genuine works."
