As the author emphasizes in his foreword, \"We intended to produce a work of scholarship, not fiction. Jurisprudence constitutes the raw material upon which our research must be based…Therefore, we have reduced dialectic to a bare minimum…We have cleared the ground by minimizing historical notions: these ritualistic and almost age-old preludes…seemed to us quite artificial and conventional.\" And it is true that the entire work has a provocative character that earned it considerably less success than its competitors.
