The late Middle Ages saw the emergence of professional jurists as a new functionary elite. The study approaches this phenomenon by focusing on a singular individual: Dietrich von Bocksdorf, Professor of Canon Law in Leipzig, learned counselor to the elector of Saxony, bishop of Naumburg. The book thereby breaks new ground. It offers not only a biography, but explores large and previously unused and largely unknown collections of more than 500 papers from the legal practice, written by the Leipzig Ordinarius. Based on this unique material the book examines for the first time spheres of influence, circles of clients and occupational fields of an individual late medieval german jurist. Legal opinions (“consilia”) and pleadings, but as well working tools for the emerging learned practice of “Common Saxon Law” made by Dietrich von Bocksdorf, provide deep insights into the beginnings of the epochal change from the traditional-archaic jurisdiction of the Middle Ages to the scholarly and written practice of law in the early modern world.

German civil law political theory is not in high demand these days. However, political theory is important for establishing an overall picture of German civil law and portraying an image of German civil law to Europe and beyond. This is especially true in times when ideas are widely circulated and the circulation itself can be useful for influencing transnational legal realities. The collected essays on German civil law instructors presented in this work aim to contribute to just such a political theory. This two volume edition is based on the lecture series "20th Century German Civil Law Inst
