Succession Law, Practice and Society in Europe across the Centuries Paperback / softback
Edited by Maria Gigliola di Renzo Villata
Part of the Studies in the History of Law and Justice series
Paperback / softback
Description
This book presents a broad overview of succession law, encompassing aspects of family law, testamentary law and legal history.
It examines society and legal practice in Europe from the Middle Ages to the present from both a legal and a sociological perspective.
The contributing authors investigate various aspects of succession law that have not yet been thoroughly examined by legal historians, and in doing so they not only add to our knowledge of past succession law but also provide a valuable key to interpreting and understanding current European succession law. Readers can explore such issues as the importance of a father’s permission to marry in relation to disinheritance, as well as inheritance transactions and private, dynastic and cross-border successions.
Further themes addressed by the expert contributors include women’s inheritance rights, the laws of succession for the prince in legal consulting, and succession in the Rota Romana’s jurisprudence.
