Harmonisation of European contract law and legal translation: a role for comparative lawyers

2007

The problem of harmonizing the contract in Europe has caught the interest of law professors, researchers and the European institutions. After years of debates, the European Union is aware that a lack of uniform legal terminology prevents any kind of unification and harmonization of European Contract law. The need for a uniform legal terminology clashes with the multilingual legal terminology of European law.

In accordance with the principle of linguistic equality, the European Community (EC) recognizes that all legal instruments have to b…

Old English byrððīnenu: the Anglo-Saxon midwife

2018

Midwives were clearly viewed as professionalized figures in the Mediterranean world of antiquity and late antiquity and they were responsible for women’s healthcare, such as gynecological and obstetrical needs. They were referred to in Roman law, admonished in Christian edicts and memorialized in statues and inscriptions. Their status is attested to by medical texts specifically intended for midwives’ use dating from at least the third century B.C. to the sixth century A.D. According to Green, professional midwives disappeared along with the slow disintegration of the urban environments that supported medical specialization and reemerged as a specialized profession only in the thirteenth ce…
