Diritto e storia: intervista a Raimondo Santoro
No full textFurther to being interviewed by Mario Varvaro, Raimondo Santoro introduces his ideas regarding the methodology of scientific research in the field of Roman law. This methodology takes into account a detailed investigation of sources and its close relationship with other historical disciplines, in which the technical nature of the legal point of view cannot be neglected. Santoro identifies the concept of law from the viewpoint of ‘legal experience’, which results from the ‘action’ and consists of development from the past to the present towards the future. He underlines the importance of historiography and the historical relativity of numerous dogmatic approaches. The interview concludes with the hope that these and other issues will inspire legal historians to continue this discussion

Salvatore Riccobono tra il ‘genio di Roma’ e il fascismo. Parte I
No full textGli studi di Riccobono sul diritto privato romano e sul suo sviluppo hanno alimentato il mito fascista della 'romanità' sul quale Mussolini fondava la propria cultura del consenso. In tal modo Riccobono ha contribuito alla costruzione e al rafforzamento dell'ideologia del regime fornendo una base scientifica alla sua cultura giuridica. Egli ha corroborato l'idea che il diritto dell'Italia fascista si legava direttamente alla tradizione dell'antico diritto romano così come esso era stato tramandato dalla compilazione giustinianea, un diritto che non era stato contaminato da elementi delle consuetudini giuridiche orientali e che aveva sempre conservato intatta la sua romanità, anche dopo essere stato permeato dall'etica cristiana.Riccobono’s studies on Roman private law and its evolution fed the fascist myth of ‘romanità’ on which Mussolini founded his culture of consensus. Riccobono thus contributed to building and to strengthening the regime’s ideology by providing a scientific basis for its legal culture. He validated the idea that the law of fascist Italy was directly linked to the tradition of ancient Roman law as contained in Justinian’s Corpus iuris ciuilis, which was not contaminated by elements of Eastern juridical customs and always preserved its Roman character even after being permeated by Christian ethics

La formula di Mucio Scevola, i nomi delle azioni e l'agere per concepta uerba
No full textThe formula Mucii Scaeuolae depicted in the fresco of ‘The Jurist’s Villa’ upon the Aniene river probably does not refer to a specific action of the formulary procedure (agere per formulas). The pratice of naming some actions after the nomen gentilicium of a praetor is in fact attested in our sources only after the so-called codification of the Edictum Perpetuum in the age of Hadrian. The discovery of the fresco leads us to reflect once again on the origins of the formulary procedure, since the Mucius Scaevola of the fresco inscription may well refer to the jurist Quintus Mucius Scaevola. This in turn might suggest both that he was actually owner of the villa and that it was he who introduced into Roman jurisprudence the prototype of the judgmental scheme in which the judge was offered two alternatives, whereby judgement in favour of the plaintiff or the defendant was made to depend on the judge’s assessment of the facts. On the evidence of the fresco, this formulation, which later served as a model for the formulae certae, may have been invented by Quintus Mucius Scaevola
