Modiwl SXL-1118:
Roman Law and Legal History

Ffeithiau’r Modiwl

Rhedir gan School of Law

20.000 Credyd neu 10.000 Credyd ECTS

Semester 1 a 2

Trefnydd: Dr Gwilym Owen

Amcanion cyffredinol

The course examines the development of English law from the Norman Conquest to the nineteenth century, although in some instances developments are followed up to the present time. Throughout the module, legal developments will be related to political, economic, social and intellectual changes within England and Wales. The course also consists of an examination of the basic concepts and principles of the Roman legal order, and of its development as a system of law in the ancient world. Students will be encouraged to relate the development of Roman law to the social and intellectual development of the Roman people.

Cynnwys cwrs

The main areas of Legal History that are studied are:

• the history of the legal system itself, in particular the development of the court structure; • the history of land law and the forms of action; • the development of the concept of the use, equity and the modern trust; • the development of the English law of obligations into the two areas of tort and contract from their common origins in the actions of trespass and case; • the concept of liability in English law and the distinction between trespass and case on the civil side.

The module will also examine the main features of Roman law relating to:

• status and citizenship; • the family; • succession; • property; • obligations and actions, in each area seeking to compare the Roman legal principles with those of the English common law.
