Precedenti di diritto ambientale a Roma?I. La contaminazione delle acque
No full textNel contesto di un rinnovato interesse per le tematiche ambientali, si rileva la tendenza di una parte non irrilevante della dottrina contemporanea a ritrovare anche nel mondo romano, e segnatamente nell’ambiente giuridico, traccia di interventi volti a disciplinare e, possibilmente, a contenere il fenomeno dell’inquinamento delle acque e dell’aria. L’articolo si propone di rispondere a queste tendenze, valutandole metodologicamente inattendibili, mediante un’analisi delle fonti apportate a riprova dell’esistenza di “precedenti di diritto ambientale a Roma” da uno studioso spagnolo (J.L. ZAMORA MANZANO, Precedentes romanos sobre el derecho ambiental, Madrid, Edisofer, 2003), e tentando di dimostrare che nessuna delle testimonianze, giuridiche e letterarie, citate sia riferibile a tale presunta intenzione.
La prima parte dell’articolo si sofferma sui problemi relativi alla contaminazione delle acque
I Romani ed i paesaggi. Un rapporto conflittuale
No full textThe a. tries to assess whether the Roman cultural and legal experience have known a sensitivity towards the protection of landscapes (as a notion other than the environment).

No full textThe paper criticizes some recent interpretations of the Roman legal concept of res communes omnium, often assimilated to modern notion of “common pool resources”. Through the analysis of the legal discipline of the most relevant res communes omnium, the sea and the seaside, I conclude that the rules of this Roman category of things are not anyhow comparable to those of “common goods”. In fact, while these are haracterized by the only possibility to extract values of use from the good, without any chance of appropriation, the public character of the use of the beach and the sea in thinking of the Roman jurists allows the appropriation of portion
Cloache e sanità urbana nello specchio del diritto
No full textThe paper includes an analysis of cases about the interdicta de cloacis investigated by Roman jurists in I-III centuries AD, related to the right to conduct private sewers into public ones and to clean them, if obstructed, also in spite of neighbours’ opposition. The case system discussed by Roman jurists may also help solve a question at the top of interest among the scholars: did Romans think about an «environmental protection»? Can it be identified in a more modest and empirical, yet essential, protection of the hygienic, sanitary conditions in the Roman cities? Finally, some considerations of Severan jurists may help verify an interesting intersection among legal reasoning and medical theories on the onset of the epidemics, with particular reference to the miasma - theory of hippocratic origin, reassessed by Galen
I GIURISTI ROMANI LEGGONO OMERO. SULL’USO DELLA LETTERATURA COLTA NELLA GIURISPRUDENZA CLASSICA
No full textThe article aims to understand why some Roman jurists sometimes needed to support their legal arguments with verses taken from the Iliad
and the Odyssey of Homer. As the first step, this study focused on the famous dispute between Sabinians and Proculians about the relationship
between sale and barter, attested in two basic sources, Gaius, 3, 141, and Paul, 33 to edictum, D. 18, 1, 1, which contain four quotes from Homer;
subsequently it has been extended to the entire repertory of quotations from Homer present in Roman legal texts surviving in the Corpus Juris
Civilis. The general purpose of the research has been to explore the theory according to such quotes would have had merely rhetorical or decorative intents, lacking whatever purpose of hermeneutical clarification. The end of the research supports the hypothesis that, on the contrary, these poetical sources would serve not only and not so much to prove the Greek origin of the Roman disciplines, but to define or clarify the contours of technical expressions (as venenum in the lex Cornelia de sicariis et veneficis, as analyzed in Gaius, 4 to legem XII tabularum, D. 50, 16, 236 pr., with respect to Od., 4, 230) or to illustrate special disciplines of Roman institutions with the support of the Greek quotations. This would be, therefore, a clear strategy of argumentation, introduced by Masurius Sabinus and improved by jurists of the second century b. Ch
