1 It should be remembered, however, that the famous definition of Julian in the opening sentences of the Digest, ‘Jus est ars boni et aequi,’ is not to be understood as speaking of art in the sense of poetry, fine arts, music, etc. but of systematic science. Cicero’s lost book De iure civili in artem redigendo aimed at the transformation of a technical skill into a dialectical science after the pattern of Rhetoric (ars = technē), cf. Schulz, , History of Roman Legal Science (Oxford 1946) 69. In the same sense we speak of the Faculty of Arts in medieval Paris and our modern schools have preserved the dichotomy of Arts and Sciences.Google Scholar
