«Favor dotis» e singolari interpretazioni in tema di «ius singulare»

Abstract

This paper shows that the Roman law of dowry cannot be categorised as ius singulare, as Stagl believes, and that there is no evidence in our sources to support his opinion about the existence of a Gaius’ «didactic system» in law teaching. Even Stagl’s most recent attempt to affirm those ideas is based upon a misinterpretation of the Roman sources and is affected by methodological fallacies.
