The core of the volume is the analysis of Julius Paulus’ “Ad Neratium libri quattuor”, a commentary that the jurist dedicated to the writings of Neratius Priscus. Only 29 fragments of this work remain which aroused a short-lived interest in modern historiography. The privileged object of the investigation, in addition to the structure and the characters of the work (Schiavon, Santucci, Ferretti), is the peculiar cultural and scholarly relationship between Julius Paulus and Neratius Priscus (Frunzio, Ferretti). A new edition of the texts is then proposed, according to Lenel’s order (but with some significant variations), followed by an analytical and exhaustive commentary.
