Édition :
    Paris
Date :
    1771
    quarto, mottled calf, spine with raised bands and decoration, burgundy morocco binding, red edges, gilt fillets on the edges, old manuscript Ex-Libris, some vignettes and initial letters, (covers slightly scuffed, corners bumped with small loss), good copy despite the defects noted, library mark, 2 f.-558 p.
    Chêne (p. 185 ff.) recounts in a captivating manner the genealogy of this text and, in particular, the difficulties the author encountered in having it published. The Duke of Fleury refused to accept the dedication, and a certain Yvernès maintained that it was in fact a manuscript written by his grandfather and copied by Serres. Chêne nevertheless demonstrates how unfounded the latter claim is and how this work constitutes one of the major texts of Toulouse legal doctrine and, more fundamentally, of the written law systems of 18th-century countries.
