Summary
From the donatio mortis causa of Roman law to the codifications of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, the self-commitment of the testator is still a challenge for legal systems in continental Europe, particularly because the testator is bound by legal transactions, whether dead or alive. Fabian Laurent Schirmer investigates parallels in the private autonomy of German and French inheritance law and finds some remarkable similarities.
