Very rare Nijmegen edition of the main work of the Louvain law professor Perez (first published in Louvain, on 1634).
Antonio Perez (Perezius, 1583-1672), born from a Spanish family, was a law teacher at the Louvain University; his commentary on Justinian's Codes are very interesting, because he added his point of view on legal history regarding Spain, Germany, France and Low Countries.
