Greek Philosophy and its Influence on the Roman Legal Science
Dostalík, Petr ; Bělovský, Petr (referee) ; Falada, David (referee)
The work deals with the influence of ideas of Greek philosophy to Roman legal science. The thesis examines Greek influences on the most important legal source of the Archaic period of Roman law, Law of the Twelve Tables, where the very idea of codification is a Greek influence that stands in opposition to the Roman concept of binding customs of the ancestors - maiorum mores. The example of the Lex Rhodia de iactu and Lex Hieronica shows that Roman legal science did not hesitate to embrace specific rules if it was necessary for the regulation of legal relations with non-Roman, especially Greek, social and business surroundings. Finally, the work deals with the influence of the Greek philosophers - especially the sophists - for the development of the skill of the legal argumentation of the Roman jurists. For example, the influence of classical Greek philosophy of Aristotle's concept was chosen a term "causa"and its further reception in the European legal history.
