    A superb and final early 19th-century folio scholarly edition of Pothier's Pandectae Justinianeae in their Latin version. The first volume opens with a magnificent portrait of Pothier and two full-page facsimiles from his manuscript. It is worth noting the inclusion of a very useful glossary of Roman law authors, written in perfectly understandable Latin, which provides brief information on the essential Roman jurists as well as the principal authors of modern Roman law doctrine. Pothier's edition of the Pandects was perhaps the only substantial work to advance Roman law within 18th-century French legal scholarship. Giraud emphasizes in his “Introduction to Roman Law” (p. 429) that the value of Pothier's work lies in its ability to provide a comprehensive overview of all the laws in the Digest (in other words, the Pandects), the Code, the Institutes, and the Novels, which are either identical or modify and explain one another. He continues: “This work is one of the most useful and highly recommended ever written for the study and interpretation of Roman law.” (Dupin no. 565).
