LAW 155 



Among the principal contributors now occupying uni- 

 versity chairs may be mentioned: BEUDANT (Grenoble), 

 author of "Le droit individuel et Pfitat" (1891); CHAR- 

 MONT (Montpellier), author of "Le droit et 1'esprit 

 democratique," and "La renaissance du droit naturel"; 

 CAPITANT (Paris) and PLANIOL (Paris), whose books, 

 entitled "Elementary Treatise on Civil Law," represent 

 most nearly what we are accustomed to term "Ana- 

 lytical Jurisprudence"; DUGUIT (Bordeaux), whose 

 masterly works "Le droit social, le droit individuel, et 

 la transformation de 1'fitat" and "Les transformations 

 generates du droit civil" have recently been published 

 (in part) in American translations, together with repre- 

 sentative parts of CHARMONT'S and DEMOGUE'S works; 

 GENY (Nancy), whose "Methode d'interpretation et 

 sources en droit prive" positif " (1899) has stirred European 

 philosophic legal thought as no other single book has 

 done since von Ihering's "Der Zweck im Recht"; DE- 

 MOGUE (Lille), author of "Notions fondamentales de droit 

 prive" (1911), which has instantly been recognized as 

 the work of a master; HAURIOU (Toulouse), author of 

 "Le mouvement social," and of "Principes du droit 

 public" (1909), one of the most original treatises of the 

 time; LAMBERT (Lyon), whose work bridges the gap 

 between comparative law and general jurisprudence; 

 LARNAUDE (Paris; dean of the Faculty of Law), whose 

 progressive influence in this field is comparable to that 

 of the lamented SALEILLES. 



Nor is the expanding power of French thought in this 

 field to be measured by a few names in the principal 

 chairs; for the published works of RICHARD ("L'origine 

 del'idee du droit"), MICHOUD ("La theorie de la person- 

 nalite morale"), CRUET ("La vie du droit"), ROLIN 

 ("Prolegomenes de la science du droit"), TANON, chief 

 justice of the Court of Appeal ("L'evolution du droit");
