Synopsis
Excerpt from Historical Introduction to the Private Law of Rome
IN preparing a new edition of this book my principal Object has been to supplement the author's notes by references to the most recent authorities, viz. To such works of importance dealing with the history of Roman Law as have been published since the date of the first edition, and have come within my reach. NO alteration has been made in the text, except by way of correcting a few verbal inaccuracies. Neither has any attempt been made to critically examine certain theories propounded by the author regarding primitive Roman institutions, such as the origin and effects of mancipation and nexum, even where I might not be disposed to accept all his conclusions. To have done so in detail would have swollen the notes and increased the size of the book to an inconvenient extent. It must always be kept in view that our knowledge of early Roman customs, at least till after the XII. Tables, cannot be based upon historical evidence it is almost entirely conjectural, and different writers will take different views according to the value they attach to this or that piece of presumptive evidence.
