$173.00

Eighth edition (but the third Elzevir) of this student textbook intended to make the Justinian Institutions accessible to beginners, ostensibly to serve as a model for practical questions on everyday gentlemanly affairs from guardianship and inheritance to property, servitude, debt, business ownership, and so on. Perez (1583-1672), a Spaniard from Alvaro, was made professor of law in Louvain in 1614. He served as councillor to the Spanish court and army administrator in the Palatinate.

Title-apge and frontispice somewhat browned and waterstained, otherwise largely clean. Contemporary ink ownership to title.
