    Ulpian. Clarendon Press, Oxford, 1982. 1st ed. XI,303p. Original blue cloth with dust wrps. Dust wrps to lower edge slightly wrinkled. 'Taking the book as whole then it will not be the definitive work on Ulpian, if such a work be possible. If anything it raises more questions than it solves. Taking 'Ulpian' in the context of H.'s other work it would also be a serious mistake to take that work as a whole as a foundation on which to build at this stage. His results are still no more than hypotheses and his challenge to scholars to test them must be taken up. Apart from the main theses 'Ulpian' contains many interesting ideas and observations which could and should be pursued further.' (W.M. GORDON in The Classical Review (New Series), 1984, p.234). From the library of Professor Carl Deroux. (Antiquarian)  (approx. delivery time: undeliverable) ISBN: 9780198253587
