Extract from the Editor s Note 

 A series of extracts taken entirely from the work of con- 

 temporary writers. It is intended for use in schools, and its 

 primary purpose is to attract the interest of the student by 

 presenting history to him as it presented itself to the men of 

 the time. 



The matter chosen has been such as will appeal to the 

 imagination — narratives of striking events in prose and verse, 

 portraits, passages illustrative of life and manners, and so on. 

 The extracts are illustrated throughout by reproductions 

 of authentic portraits, by illustrations taken from old mss., and 

 by photographs of historic scenes.

Extract from the Preface 



The following pages form a running commentary on the 

 Institutes of Gaius and those of Justinian, designed especially 

 for students who have read their Institutes but little more. 

 The aim of the writer has been throughout to discuss institu- 

 tions rather than to state rules, to suggest and stimulate 

 rather than to inform. Considerations of space have made 

 selection necessary... but an attempt has been made to bring 

 home to the student the fact that the Roman Law is not 

 merely a set of rules on paper, a literary product, but a 

 group of institutions under which the Romans actually lived. 



Journal of Education. — It is an excellent book for putting students upon 

 inquiry; it is suggestive and stimulating tliroughout. It is a scholarly 

 and incisive criticism and exposition. It will be valuable to students that 

 are able to read it before their first degree examinations, and to those 

 that wish to continue their Roman Law studies to the point where such 

 studies begin to bear profitable fruit.
