Jurisprudenz in Freiburg

Focusing on scholarly and historical aspects, Alexander Hollerbach provides the essential elements of a history of the faculty of law in Freiburg since the university was founded in 1457. The various articles focus on the 19th and 20th century, and in particular on individual legal subjects such as the philosophy of law, canon law and public law as well as the development during the Nazi period. In addition to cross-sections from general history and the history of specific subjects, a substantial part of the book consists of biographical studies of eminent scholars who were in Freiburg. This work also contains an extensive bibliography on the history of the faculty of law in Freiburg.
