The Responsa Prudentium of Roman Law

Por: Anavitarte, E. J.*

The Responsa Prudentium was doctrinal interpretations of law provided by jurists or scholars, as a way to rule a given case; and as a whole, they constitute one of the most significant legal sources for the study of Roman law.

It has been his work─Ulpiano, Paulo, Gaius─which has allowed later romanists to understand the real scope of the legal institutions of the Roman people, which in the laws, was reflected without much care to the details.

Thus, and especially during the classical and post-classical periods, the jurisconsults would be in charge of unequivocally interpreting the majority of legally created institutions, and even those of customary creation, a role very similar to that occupied by praetorian jurisprudence in previous periods, but in a more systematic and orderly way.

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English.
