Descripción
Sumario:"This book is an investigation into the methods, decisions, and theoretical perspectives that underpin the creation and writing of an all-encompassing legal code, the Siete Partidas (Seven Parts), although it is not an exhaustive study of that code. It is, rather, an examination of some of the code's technologies and techniques of codification. In that sense, it opens up a larger conversation with the theories and techniques of legal codification in other languages and cultures during the Middle Ages and beyond. Ultimately, this book is a study of the question of what it meant to codify law in the Middle Ages and what problems this question gave birth to, along with the technical strategies that lawgivers and law scholars offered to resolve those issues"
