Produktbeschreibung

This is a thoroughly revised edition of the only full-scale work about possibly the most influential lawyer of all time, the Syrian Ulpian. Ulpian wrote a massive survey of Roman law in 213-17 AD and Tony Honor argues that his philosophy of freedom and equality make him a pioneer of human rights.
