Ancient Law in Context – Workshop 6

Published 2 February 2016 by pdupless

The past weekend saw the half-yearly meeting of the interdisciplinary research network, Ancient Law in Context. The network, co-hosted by the Centre for Legal History in the School of Law and the School of History, Classics and Archaeology at the University of Edinburgh was set up to foster greater interaction between legal historians and ancient historians working in the fields of ancient law. The network has grown from strength to strength and now regularly attracts an audience of c. 30 people. The topic of the last meeting was “procedure” and a number of scholars from the UK, Europe and the USA discussed various aspects of Greek and Roman legal procedure. A few provocative papers, especially concerning the work of judges in Roman Egypt, provided great food for thought and led to lively debate. Workshop 7 will be held toward the end of this calendar year. Topic to follow.
