Description

The author describes historical and social circumstances in which the oldest Mesopotamia's laws of Ur-Nammu, Bilalama, Lipit-Isthar and Hammurabi appeared, and analyses them in comparison with Assyrian, Hitlitc and Hebrew law texts. From the area of the Festile Crescent, he chooses the Hammurabi's codex, the Jewish Torah and the Roman Lex duodecim tabularum. Many parts of these three are practically identical. The author exposses as well the differences among them and the specificity of Decalogus by Moses. The treated codices, believes the author, laid the common base to the later European law system, among others to Justinian's codex, and evaluates them as essential historical sources.

      • The author describes historical and social circumstances in which the oldest Mesopotamia's laws of Ur-Nammu, Bilalama, Lipit-Isthar and Hammurabi appeared, and analyses them in comparison with Assyrian, Hitlitc and Hebrew law texts. From the area of the Festile Crescent, he chooses the Hammurabi's codex, the Jewish Torah and the Roman Lex duodecim tabularum. Many parts of these three are practically identical.

      • Avtor predstavi zgodovinske in družbene razmere, v katerih so nastali najstarejši zakoniki v Mezopotamiji - Ur-namujev, Bilalamov, Lipi-Ištarjev in Hamurabijev kodeks, ter naredi primerjalno analizo z asirskimi, hetitskimi ter hebrejskimi pravnimi besedili. Od zakonikov v loku rodovitnega polmeseca je izbral Hamurabijev kodeks, judovsko Toro/Pentatevh ter rimski zakonik XII plošč in naredil vsebinsko primerjavo med njimi. Številni členi teh zakonikov so skoraj identični. Avtor opozarja tudi na razlike med njimi in specifičnost Mojzesovega dekaloga. Obravnavani kodeksi so po avtorjevem mnenju postavili temelje evropskemu pravnemu sistemu, tudi Justinijanovemu zakoniku. Vsebinsko pa so zanimivi še danes. Avtor obravnava te zakonike kot pomemben zgodovinski vir.
