EDINBURGH STUDIES IN LAW Series Editor: Elspeth Christie Reid Volume 13 Enlightenment, Legal Education, and Critique Selected Essays on the History of Scots Law, Volume 2 John W Cairns A further collection of the most influential essays on legal history from the career of John W Cairns This second volume of two is a collection of essays on Scots law representing a selection of the most cited articles published by Professor John W Cairns over a distinguished career in legal history. It is a mark of his international eminence that much of his prolific output has been published outside the UK, in a wide variety of journals and collections. Enlightenment, Legal Education and Critique deals with broad themes in legal history, such as the development of Scots law through the major legal thinkers of the Enlightenment, essays on Roman law and miscellaneous essays on the literary and philosophical traditions within law. John W Cairns holds the Chair of Civil Law in the University of Edinburgh. He is co-editor (with Paul du Plessis) of two successful volumes in the Edinburgh Studies in Law Series published by Edinburgh University Press: Beyond Dogmatics: Law and Society in the Roman World (2007) and The Creation of the Ius Commune: From Casus to Regula (2010).
