The relationship between historical sources and interpretations demonstrates that from the sixteenth century onwards contemporary legal ideas of codification of law were transposed into the history of the Perpetual Edict. In particular, the use of the model of a modern systematic codification is explained as an expression of phantom modernity, the tendency of scholars to modernise the classical world as a continuation of the long-established glorification of the Antonine Roman empire. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Journal of Legal History is the property of Taylor & Francis Ltd and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
