Jean-Marie Ricard - Traicté des deux especes de substitutions directe et fideicommissaire - 1661

Treatise on the two kinds of direct and fideicommissary substitutions by the French jurist Jean-Marie Ricard, published in Paris by the publisher Louis Billaine in 1661 (the word “situations” being a distortion of the legal term of the time, “substitutions”). This historical civil-law work deals with the major distinction under the Ancien Régime between direct (Roman) substitutions and fideicommissary substitutions. For specialists; an original edition from 1661! or for lovers of rare old books... Good condition, the spine of the binding to be restored. Numerous notes and a loose page from former owners... Interesting and rare
