The Legal Virtues of the Example
This article aims at specifying some features of the example in the legal field. The citations of Classics in order to support legal decisions have given birth to legal categories, like non-intent or adoption : in this case, the example was used to create a norm. The system of « Eight Characters » enabled the interpretation of codified laws by combining analogical examples, with a didactic purpose. Hexagrams from the Yi jing have served as a schema of the judicial apparatus and the qualities required from the judge while the system functioned. These various forms of examplification exhibit the vitality of jurisprudence within a codified and systematized legal framework. Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
