Description

The Vastgota Laws presents the definitive English translation of Sweden's oldest provincial law code, offering scholars and history enthusiasts direct access to a foundational medieval legal text. The Older Vastgota Law, dating from the first half of the thirteenth century, represents the earliest known example of indigenous vernacular writing using Latin script in Sweden, making this volume essential for understanding medieval Scandinavian legal development and literacy practices. This Routledge Medieval Translations edition includes a revised version preserved in a fourteenth-century manuscript, alongside annotations and proposals from the complex historical negotiations that shaped Swedish law. Ideal for academic research, legal historians, and anyone studying medieval European legal systems and the evolution of written law in northern Europe.
