[Presumptions, Proofs] Alciati De praesumptionibus 1580

Item Details

Description

ONE OF THE FIRST PUBLISHED WORK ON THE DISCIPLINE OF THE PROOFS

Alciatus, Andreas. Tractatus de praesumptionibus [...] Köln: Apud Ioannem Gymnicum, 1580.

8vo (152x95 mm), contemporary stiff vellum with handwritten title at spine, red edges, traces of ties, pp. [8], 584, [96, the last 3 are blanks]. Woodcut printer's device, woodcut headletters.

One of the most relevant works of the great Renaissance lawyer, the Tractatus de presumptionibus (published for the first time in 1551) was one the first essays entirely dedicated to the discipline of the legal proofs.

Andrea Alciati was one of the most famous Italian jurist in the second half of the 16th century. He is regarded as the founder of the French school of legal humanists. He displayed great literary skill in his exposition of the laws, and was one of the first to interpret the civil law by the history, languages and literature of antiquity, and to substitute original research for the servile interpretations of the glossators. He published many legal works, (and a very celebrated book of emblems, which attained enormous popularity in continental Europe and Great Britain).
