Tribonian

$25.00 CAD

pp. 314, “This is a wonderful book. The making of Justinian’s Digest seemed in prospect to be a task so huge as to be beyond man’s power to tackle. The centre of Honoré’s Tribonian is the account of how it was done. This is set in the life-history of the man whose energy kept despair at bay. The book is in the end not only a contribution to legal history. It is also a tool and manual of research.’ Peter Birks, Classical Review”
