Iuris prudentia Diocletiana. : Kaiserliche Rechtsprechung am Ende des dritten Jahrhunderts.
Bok av Jan Dirk Harke
According to established opinion, Diocletian's chancellery consistently defended classical Roman law against the influence of popular legal ideas from the provinces of the Roman Empire. This picture does not stand up to a critical review of the decisions passed in the field of the law of obligations: Here the imperial chancellery shows itself by no means bound to classical law, but develops it further, and not in response to vulgar law, but aiming at a refinement of the traditional legal material.
