Description
Tractatus de Transactionibus. Dr Emmanuel Roman Valeron. Spanish School. 17th century Printed in Lyon in 1665, this legal volume is one of the most prominent works by the Spanish jurist Emmanuel Roman Valeron. Paper and ink on parchment. The treatise thoroughly explores the theory and practice of legal transactions, integrating both canonical and civil doctrines of the period with a clear and meticulous methodology. It is notable for its refined two-tone typography, the use of ornate initials, and an allegorical title page featuring a copper engraving. The volume retains its original parchment binding, featuring a handwritten spine title and cord closure. This work, representative of Baroque legal thought, reflects the intellectual brilliance of the University of Valladolid in the 17th century and serves as a tangible testament to the evolution of law within the Hispanic world.
