Descrizione

Aus dem Nachlass von Michael Richter. Mit Besitzvermerk auf Vorsatz. Vereinzelte Anstreichungen (mit Bleistift), Umschlag berieben, sonst gutes Exemplar. Beiliegend: Handschriftliche und maschinenschriftliche Notizen von Richter. - THE laws of a nation form an integral part of that nation's way of life; as Sir Goronwy Edwards once put it so neatly, 'they are at once a mirror and a mould'. The present study concerns itself with the Welsh laws as presented to us by the five known Latin redactions, which are preserved in over thirty manuscripts. Four of these Latin redactions were compiled during the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, i.e. during the period when Welsh law was still widely operative in Wales. This volume supplies a critical text of each of the Latin redactions. An attempt is also made to demonstrate that successive redactions made use of existing ones, and to relate their contents to the historical background. (Verlagstext).
