Borders Of The Early Modern Ius Commune - England, Venice, And Scandinavia

~~56,96€~~ 51,26€ 10% OFF

 <p>The culture of the <em>ius commune</em> has been a unifying element of European and Western legal civilization. As shown by several recent studies, the influence of <em>ius commune</em> extended much farther than its traditional core area. This volume discusses the expansion and changes of <em>ius commune</em> in three significant corners of Europe, which in the classical narrative either totally or partially were left out of the picture: England, Scandinavia, and Venice. The study goes beyond the traditional question of the influence of <em>ius commune</em> in comparing the different constellations of normativity and legal pluralism in these regions. It investigates how not only <em>ius commune</em> but also other forms of normativity - such as customary law, written norms, and legal practice - were used and applied, and how they circulated. The approach helps create new narratives as to how the relationship between centers and peripheries in Europe evolved in the early modern period. These new narratives are built from bottom to top; thus, they are based on concrete source information, and they focus on the learned legal systems and their connection to the local legal sources. The collection further looks into the circulation of professors and doctors, students, and legal texts, starting from the idea that a theoretical understanding of the forms of normativity can emerge only through concrete, multidisciplinary research recognizing the tensions between global legal unification and differentiation. The book will be essential reading for researchers and academics in Legal History, Law and Religion, Comparative Legal Studies, and Early Modern History.</p>
