Excerpt from Studies in Juridical Law
It is the design of the author to present his readers with a treatise which, so far as practicable under existing conditions of our juridical literature and requirements for admission to the bar, shall be acceptable and useful, both to the legal profession and to such general readers as may wish to acquire a knowledge of the cardinal principles of government and law as essential to a liberal education, and a valuable aid to the best qualifications for citizenship under a republican government.

At a later period in the eleventh century, a school was established at Bologna which was frequented by a multitude of pupils from all parts of Italy, France, and other countries. In all these institutions the Roman law was taught and studied as a preparation for professional life, and also as a branch of polite learning, constituting one of the accomplishments of a liberal education. Speaking of the Roman law thus taught and studied.
