Summary: Magna Opera Iuris
Comment: The Digest of Iustinianus is probably the first masterpiece in the history of Law that untill nowadays is applied in order to interpretate law or even as common law in some places of the globe. The Digest is a recopilation of jurisprudence, mainly from jurists that lived in the so called late classic period of roman law (Ulpianus, Papinianus, Paulus, Modestinus and the classical but provincial Gaius). However comments of other important jurists can be found such as Julianus, Alfenus et. al. showing us, of course with interpolations since it was intended as applicable law after it's composition, all the main context of Roman Law from the post classical period (527). Not withstanding the afforementioned critic, the Digest is regarded nowadays as the most classic book of law, not only romal law, but law as a whole. it is a masterpiece and the result of years of hard work of a commission leaded by Tribonianus. The Digest of Justinian is the number one book to any researcher on law regardless of the subject. Some translations recomended are D'ors et.al (Spanish, Ed. Aranzadi, Pamplona), or the transcription composed by the great Theodor Mommsen (German). Readers: Undergraduate (only researchers), Graduate Students (Doctoral), Researchers in general, Jurists and lawyers, Judges.
