"This edited collection presents a series of essays on the roles of principle and
pragmatism in Roman private law. The book traverses key areas of Roman law to examine
the explanatory power of (and delineate interactions between) abstract, doctrinal
principle, and pragmatic, real-world problem-solving. Essays canvassing sources of
law, property, succession, contracts and delicts sketch the varied roles of theoretical
narratives (whether internal to Roman doctrine or derived from external influence)
and of practical, policy-based solutions in the jurists' thought. Principled reasoning
in Roman juristic argument ranges from safeguarding commerce, to the priority of acts
or intentions in property transactions, to notions of pietas, to Platonic conceptions
of the market. Pragmatism is discernible in myriad ways, from divergence between form
and substance, to extension of legal rules for economic, social or political utility,
to emphasis on what parties did rather than what they said. The distinctive contribution
of the book is its survey of different manifestations of principle and pragmatism
across Roman private law."
