{"product_id":"amne-adverso-laurent-waelkens-9789462700543","title":"Amne Adverso: Roman Legal Heritage in European Culture","description":"\u003cp\u003eThroughout its history, Europe has been influenced by Roman culture, which had a strong sense of society and was highly legal-minded. Hence, Roman law is of major importance in European thinking. It was the first subject to be taught at European universities and it remains tightly interwoven with all layers of European civilization. In \u003ci\u003eAmne adverso\u003c\/i\u003e, Laurent Waelkens provides an introduction to the history of Roman law and its institutions, as they developed from antiquity until the nineteenth century. Concepts such as fundamental rights and freedoms, lawsuits, family law, rights in rem, and obligations have their origins in classical antiquity and were developed further throughout European history. Waelkens treats Roman legal heritage from the perspective of comparative legal history.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Laurent Waelkens\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9462700540\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789462700543\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Leuven University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/15\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 432\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.10w x 1.00d","brand":"Laurent Waelkens","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43988825964799,"sku":"9789462700543","price":59.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1f9fcc3e-56ed-45ea-96bb-5e4933495439.jpg?v=1683296595","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/amne-adverso-laurent-waelkens-9789462700543","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
