Friedrich Karl Von Savigny Books

Friedrich Karl von Savigny was a German jurist and legal scholar, a founder of the influential "historical school" of jurisprudence. He advocated for analyzing the meaning and content of existing laws by researching their historical origins and transformations. His work emphasized that law is not merely a set of rules but a living product of a nation's collective spirit. Savigny's approach shaped the understanding of law as a dynamic and historically conditioned reality.
