Abstract

The aim of the contribution is to outline the history, the structure and the functions of legal commentaries in the Italian tradition. After a historical introduction, which takes into consideration the relationships between the Italian, the French and the German scholarships, the author exposes the main characteristics of the different types of legal commentaries. The structure and the style of the main publications are put under scrutiny and compared to other literary genres, namely treaties and encyclopedias. The essay tries then to indicate the current “value” of legal commentaries for doctrinal and practice-oriented research purposes. Finally, it discusses the future of the literary genre and its possible implementation in online databases.
