Legal sources / authorities from the early modern age – digitized
(http://rechtsquellen-digital.uni-hd.de)
Supported by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft the University Library of Heidelberg and the Heidelberg Academy of Sciences and Humanities, Forschungsstelle Deutsches Rechtswörterbuch digitized nearly 100 legal sources from the early modern age selected from the holdings of the University Library.
Among the sources are the works of famous legal scholars from the 16th and 17th century. Represented are important works of Christoph Besold, Benedikt Carpzov, Adrian Beier and Noe Meurer which are difficult to get for non-local academics and interested readers.
A printed edition of Sebastian Brant's “Richterlich Clagspiegel” (1536) is available, too. Already written in 1436 by the town clerk Conrad Heyden of Schwäbish Hall this book is considered to be the eldest and most substantial compendium of Roman Law in German language. The first treatise contains comments on civil law and law of civil procedure, the second treatise ( “Ander Teil”) comments on criminal law and law of criminal procedure.
All digitized works are indexed in the online catalogue HEIDI.
