Institutions & Code of Justinian — Humanist edition reviewed by Gregor Haloander
This remarkable volume, printed in Basel in 1541 by Johannes Hervagius, brings together two fundamental texts of the history of Western law:
The Institutes of Emperor Justinian I, the very foundation of Roman law education.
The Code of Justinian, in the prestigious humanist revision by Gregor Haloander, one of the most accurate and respected editors of his time.
1. The imperial force: Justinian I
The two books of this volume derive their direct authority from Justinianus Augustus, Roman Emperor of the East (527-565).
During his reign, the greatest codification of law ever undertaken in antiquity was accomplished: the Corpus Juris Civilis.
In this book, two essential components of this monumental work are brought together:
1. Gregor (Greg.) Haloander (v. 1501–1531)
A German humanist jurist and philologist of exceptional precision, Haloander was one of the very first to establish a reliable text, free of the medieval errors of the Code of Justinian. His revisions are renowned for their critical rigor and fidelity to ancient manuscripts.
The second title of the volume attests to this crucial contribution.
The Twelve Books of the Code of Our Lord Justinian, Most Sacred Prince
By recognition of Gregory Haloandri.
This edition features:
the text of Justinian's Code in twelve books
reviewed, corrected, and purified by Haloander
Enriched with essential supplements: the Authenticae (summaries of the Novellae) and excerpts from the later imperial law (Frederick II).
Institutes or Elements of Lord Justinian... Four Books
The Institutes or Elements of Emperor Justinian, in Four Books
This is the official manual written to train law students, providing a clear and pedagogical summary of the Roman legal tradition. The Institutes are considered the gateway to classical Roman law and have exerted a lasting influence on European legal systems.
Antique vellum binding, large folio format '36.5 x 26.5 cm', with bands, headbands, decorated initials, vignette on the title page, red edges, bands, headbands, stains, foxing, published with the approval and privilege of the king, a very rare 16th-century book (see attached photos).
Paginations
Book 1: ff + 91 pages.
Book 2: 13 and following pages + 685 pages.
