I couldn’t find the actual 1904 edition reprinted by the Legal Classics Library that I read but this option was the closest possible choice. Not being a lawyer, I read it for the history sort of the way you do when you read ahead in the litergy when bored to some interesting part of ancient history. The sumptuary laws are not to be believed but they had problems to solve and this was their way. It’s a book you read in between other things 15 minutes at a time. Flip the pages to any point and you can just get engrossed.
If you are interested in legal history, this books will give you solid visibility into the Babylonian legal system. Interesting parallels with modern legal theories are evident. Not a riveting page turner, and I would have liked to see more commentaries. Having said that, it is an interesting legal history read.
En genomgång av babylonisk lag, med tillägg av brev från statspersoner som illustrativa exempel. Fullständigt adekvat; inte speciellt intressant om man inte är historienörd (vilket jag dock är).
