Deutsches Internationales Privatrecht im 16. und 17. Jahrhundert

This is the second volume of a two-volume book that makes accessible for the first time the fundamental historical sources of German private international law from its beginning until approximately 1700, thus providing the essential background for understanding the conflict of laws theory. The two volumes cover the major works of eighteen German authors from 1481 to 1719 in the original Latin and give a translation into modern German. It is an excellent reference work on the history of private international law permitting a deeper insight into present day private international law.
