  • Untersuchungen zum römischen Begnadigungsrecht. Abolitio - Indulgentia - Venia. Universitätsverlag Wagner, Innsbruck, 1964. 255p. Sewn. Series: Commentationes Aeniponanae XVIII. ‘The substance of this book is in fact a study of the use - in both legal and literary sources - of the words ‘vein’, ‘abolition’, and ‘abler’, ‘indulgentia’ and ‘indulger’ in the various phases of Roman legal history. The method sounds forbidding: so it is only right to say at the outset that in fact an excellent style and admirable arrangement have produced an eminently readable book.’ (J.A.C. THOMAS in The Classical Review (New Series), 1967, p.200). From the library of Prof. Carl Deroux. € 25.00 (Antiquarian)
