Claude de Ferrière [26cm

DESCRIPTION: I present at auction a MAGNIFICENT BOOK in IN-4 format (dimensions: 26 x 20 cm) that contains one of the most famous, influential, and sought-after legal and notarial works of the Old Regime: "LA SCIENCE PARFAITE DES NOTAIRES, OU LE PARFAIT NOTAIRE (The Perfect Science of Notaries, or The Perfect Notary)" (Volume One of Two), a fundamental treatise for understanding the work of the notary, legal practice, customary law, and written law in 18th-century Europe. This prestigious work was originally conceived by Claude de Ferrière (1639-1715), Doctor of Law from the University of Paris, and masterfully expanded in this edition by his son, the illustrious jurist Claude-Joseph de Ferrière, Dean of the Doctors Regentes of the Faculty of Law of Paris and former Advocate in the Parliament. CONTENT OF THE WORK: Volume I (of 2) that I present at auction is composed of seven books with the following contents: • Book First - Des Notaries & de leurs Fonctions: An exhaustive study on the name, origin, and nature of the notarial function, differentiating between royal notaries, those of the Châtelet of Paris, and seigneurial notaries, as well as norms on incompatibilities, professional secrets, minutes, grosseries, compulsas, and the legal liability of the notary in drafting acts. • Book Second - Des Contrats & des Actes: A deep analysis of capacity to contract, the obligations of married women under both Civil Law (Pays Coutumier) and Written Law and Normandy, the legal regulation of usury and lending, the conditions and clauses of contracts, the probative force of public and private documents, and the detailed regime of general, special, and privileged mortgages. • Book Third - Des Contrats qui se formant par la Tradition de la chose: Treaty on loan (Prêt), obligations and the forms of acts and loan contracts of money or other causes. • Book Fourth - Du Mariage & des Conventions qui se font entre les futurs Conjoints: Comprehensive treatise on marriage, conditions for validity, marriage contracts, community of property, joint ownership, dowries, donations, and specific conventions according to the customs of the various French provinces. • Book Fifth - Du Contrat de Vente, & autres Actes qui ont rapport à la Vente: Regulation and forms on the contract of sale, effects, clauses of retraint (délai de rémora), gentil retrait (retrait lignager), exchanges, censuses, constituted rents, and life annuities. • Book Sixth - Des autres Contrats qui se forment par le seul consentement des Parties: Study on leases (Bail à loyer and Bail à ferme), service leases, enfeudation, partnerships, and mandates or procurations. • Book Seventh - Des Donations: Legal doctrine and forms on donations in general, capacity of donors and donees, donations between spouses, revocations and registry insinuations. ERUDITION AND CRITICAL APPARATUS: This carefully prepared 1741 edition stands out for its doctrinal rigor, incorporating exact forms, protocols, styles, and precise instructions for drafting all kinds of civil and beneficial acts, adapted to both the provinces of written law and the countries of customs. An authentic bibliographic jewel indispensable for collectors of legal antiquities, bibliophiles, historians of law, notaries, and lawyers, intended to enrich any select library or prestigious professional office.
