Abstract
This paper explores Isidore of Seville’s definitions of legal terms and Roman law concepts during the early Middle Ages. While Isidore was not a lawyer, he played a crucial role on the development of both legal theory and more technical aspects of the law such as legal procedure. Combining elements of Roman and Jewish-Christian traditions, Isidore’s definitions were of the utmost importance during the long period leading to the dawn of the School of Bologna.File in questo prodotto:
