Description

Explore a landmark study in medieval legal and political thought with this Routledge Revival. Originally published in 1946, this work introduced a fresh perspective to medieval studies, providing essential analysis for historians of social, legal, and political ideas. By examining original sources, the author guides readers through the realms of fourteenth-century legal scholarship. The text focuses on Lucas de Penna to present the medieval concept of law as the concrete manifestation of abstract justice. Through a comparison of contemporary opinions with those of de Penna, the book offers a deep look at how legal principles were understood during this era. Readers will gain insight into the intensity of medieval academic life, illustrated through historical controversies and the development of medieval criminology. This scholarly work remains a vital resource for anyone studying the evolution of legal theory and the intellectual history of the fourteenth century.
