Book Description

Excerpt from The Ecclesiastical Edicts of the Theodosian Code This monograph has been prepared as a dissertation to complete the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Columbia University. The subject was sug gested by a discussion in the seminar of Professor James H. Robinson and by the lectures of Professor Munroe Smith on the History of European Law. To these gentlemen I am indebted for criticisms of style, and to Professor Munro Smith for invaluable aid in the interpretation of certain texts. I am also under Obligation to Mr. F. W. Erb, of the Columbia University Library, for courtesies in the loan of books. William K. Boyd. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
