Paolo Ridola e la storia del diritto. Con un'appendice sulla libertà di stampa nell'Inghilterra del Seicento
In the first part of this paper, the author analyzes Paolo Ridola’s contribution to the historical-legal studies. This perspective is especially congenial to him, as shown trough a set of writings so oriented in his vast production. It is a recurrent method, which together with the comparison and the history of comparison, provides legal science with a fruitful line of studies between history and comparison so to open new paths for research.
