EDINBURGH STUDIES IN LAW Series Editor: Elspeth Christie Reid Volume 12 Law, Lawyers, and Humanism Selected Essays on the History of Scots Law, Volume 1 John W Cairns A collection of the most influential essays on legal history from the career of John W Cairns The first volume of two, this collection of essays on Scots law represents 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. This collection reproduces essays covering the foundation and continuity of Scots law from 16th- and 17th-century Scotland through the 18th-century influence of Dutch Humanism into the 19th century and the further development of the Scots legal system and profession. 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).
