RICCOBONO, SALVATORE. Outlines of the Evolution of Roman Law. Rev. Derecho Privado [online]. 2021, n.40, pp.497-512.  Epub 08-Feb-2021. ISSN 0123-4366.  https://doi.org/10.18601/01234366.n40.17.

In this article, the eminent Romanist Salvatore Riccobono masterfully illustrates, from a perspective of Romanistic studies typical of the first half of the 20th century, about the great moments and developments of the Roman law legal system tradition, to conclude that Justinian's Corpus luris was the product of the tradition of Roman law and not of the Hellenistic influence. The three legal elements typical of the Roman law tradition: ius civile, ius honorarium, ius gentium, stand out in their relationship with jurists, the task of Roman jurisprudence, and the activity of the Praetor based on equity.

Palabras clave : Roman Law; History of Law; Romanistic Tradition; Western Legal Tradition.
