Encyclopedic Dictionary of Roman Law
Author: Adolf BergerPublisher: American Philosophical Society
ISBN: 9780871694324
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 498
Book Description
This Dictionary: explains technical Roman legal terms, translates & elucidate those Latin words which have a specific connotation when used in a juristic context or in connection with a legal institution or question, & provides a brief picture of Roman legal institutions & sources as a sort of an introduction to them. The objectives of the work, not the juristic character of available Latin writings, therefore, determined the inclusion or exclusion of any single word or phrase. This dict. is not intended to be a complete Latin-English dict. for all words which occur in the writings of the Roman jurists or in the various codifications of Roman law. The reader must consult a general Latin-English lexicon for ordinary words that have no specific meaning in law or juristic language. Reprinted 1980.

Book Description
Reprint of the second edition. A one-volume law dictionary intended to define and provide explanations of words and maxims relating strictly to law, without elucidation, for those not deeply acquainted with law. Shumaker based the work on the 1867 edition of Bouvier's Law Dictionary and added modern terms and maxims, which more than doubled the number of entries in the original.

Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 448
Book Description
This dictionary of 368 key terms in international law--concepts, major treaties, international conventions, and theories--clarifies a broad range of issues in this field. Organized thematically, its 12 chapters bring together terms on topics such as jurisdiction and jurisdictional immunities, treatment of aliens, the law of the sea, and laws of war and neutrality. The two-part entries first define the term and then explain its significance and implications through historic and current examples. Most of the "see also" references within the definitions refer to other terms within the same chapter. The index not only identifies entry terms but also analyzes the entries' contents, thus allowing thorough retrieval on any topic. ISBN 0-87436-406-X: $37.50 (For use only in the library).
The Law Student's Helper

Author: Máirtín Mac AodhaPublisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317106180
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 360
Book Description
Legal lexicography or jurilexicography is the most neglected aspect of the discipline of jurilinguistics, despite its great relevance for translators, academics and comparative lawyers. This volume seeks to bridge this gap in legal literature by bringing together contributions from ten jurisdictions from leading experts in the field. The work addresses aspects of legal lexicography, both monolingual and bilingual, in its various manifestations in both civilian and common law systems. It thus compares epistemic approaches in a subject that is inextricably bound up with specific legal systems and specific languages. Topics covered include the history of French legal lexicography, ordinary language as defined by the courts, the use of law dictionaries by the judiciary, legal lexicography and translation, and a proposed multilingual dictionary for the EU citizen. While the majority of contributions are in English, the volume includes three written in French. The collection will be a valuable resource for both scholars and practitioners engaging with language in the mechanism of the law.
