Selections from the Roman Law writings of David Daube, foremost humanist of the law. Like Montaigne, Daube possessed the capacity to be 'a contemporary for all times.' No matter what period of history Daube inquired into he had an uncanny instinct for uncovering unexpected insights that root us in that time and have universal application. 3
