"De Politia Scti Velleiani De Fideiussione Feminarum" by Christian Heinrich Breuning delves into the intricacies of Roman law concerning women's suretyship. This scholarly work examines the Senatus consultum Velleianum, a significant legal decree that placed restrictions on women acting as guarantors or sureties for others' debts. Breuning's analysis provides valuable insights into the historical context, legal interpretations, and societal implications of these regulations.
Exploring the legal status of women in Roman society, the book sheds light on the protections and limitations imposed upon them. It is an essential resource for legal historians, scholars of Roman law, and anyone interested in the historical intersection of law and gender. Breuning's meticulous examination offers a window into a complex area of legal history, illuminating the enduring legacy of Roman jurisprudence.
