BYNKERSHOEK, CORNELIUS VAN (1673-1743)

This article appears in Volume V04, Page 896 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: BUN-CAL
BYNKERSHOEK, CORNELIUS VAN (1673-1743) , Dutch jurist, was born at Middleburg in Zeeland. In the
prosecution
  of his legal studies, and while holding the offices first of member and afterwards of
president
  of the supreme
court
 , he found the common law of his country so defective as to be nearly useless for
practical
  purposes. This abuse he resolved to reform, and took as the basis of a new
system
  the principles of the ancient
Roman
  law. His works are very voluminous. The most important of them are De foro legatorum (1702); Observationes Juris Romani (1710), of which a continuation in four books appeared in 1733; the treatise De Dominio Maris (1721); and the Quaestiones Juris Publici (1737).
Complete
 
editions
  of his works were published after his death; one in folio at Geneva in 1761, and another in two volumes folio at Leiden in 1766.
