I compilatori al lavoro sul Codex. Confronto tra c. 11.7(6) e il suo corrispondente Teodosiano

Abstract

The article compares C. 11.(7)6 and Cod. Th. 10.19 with the aim of highlighting the method and the logics used by Justinian’s Compilers in reordering the mining legislation coming from the Codex Theodosianus. By examining the provisions accepted or rejected in the Justinian’s Code, the research shows that the careful selection and amendment of the laws coming from Cod. Th. 10.19 preformed by the Justinian’s Compilers took primarily in account the need to remove interpretive doubts in order to better safeguard the specific interests involved in the mining law.
