His achievements in law (in particular Roman law and the law on ownership) have already been acknowledged in the research literature. There are also many publications about his life and work as a Professor of Roman law at the University of Lwów. No proper research, however, has been done into Piniński’s contribution to Shakespeare’s studies. The paper attempts to fill this gap by discussing Leon Piniński’s legacy as a translator and commentator on William Shakespeare. The analysis focuses on a two-volume work entitled William Shakespeare. Wrażenia i szkice z twórczości poety (Lwów, 1924). In this seminal contribution, Piniński examines all of Bard’s plays in terms of sources, synopsis, themes and intertextuality. Leon Piniński also translated Shakespeare’s works and criticised the translations by such prominent authors as Leon Ulrich and Józef Paszkowski. Many of his ideas and translation choices were innovative compared to other Polish versions of Shakespeare’s plays and are still relevant today.

On the other hand, to prosecute the murderer of a relative was considered a sacred duty for the members of the victim's family. Any negligence in this area was perceived as wicked behaviour and detrimental to the memory of the deceased. The obligation to bring a criminal charge, symbolically identified with vengeance (ultio, vindicta), rested with men. The surviving funeral eulogy known as the Laudatio Turiae shows a very different pattern. Its content shows that at the end of the first century BC, it was a woman who accused the murderers of her parents in court and brought about their conviction. The oration makes it possible to initiate an interesting discussion on the real importance of women's voice in the criminal process and on the social stereotypes that limited their participation in public procedures.

Their laws readily operated with metaphors and literary descriptions. An example of such an instance is the situation in which the weapon “by itself” slipped from the hand of the perpetrator of homicide. Due to the fact that it was incorporated into Christian writings, this odd regulation remained in force until the 20th century.

Prof. Stanisław Płodzień. The author taught Roman and Canon Law at the Catholic University of Lublin in the 1950s and early 1960s. However, his promising career was interrupted by his sudden death in 1962. Among the unpublished materials he left behind is a script prepared for first-year students of canon law, entitled „The Roman Civil Trial”. This is a valuable find, since in the 19th and 20th centuries only two monographs on the Roman civil procedure were published in Polish. An analysis of the script shows that its author drew mostly on Leopold Wenger’s monograph „Institutionen des römischen Zivilprozessrechts”. It is from him that he took the idea of devoting a separate discussion to the differences between Roman civil trials and their criminal and administrative proceedings. The text included a subsection entitled “The Relationship between the Roman Civil Trial and Criminal and Administrative proceedings”. The author presented the peculiarities of all three types of proceedings in a factual manner, emphasizing that certain contemporary categories had already been contemplated by the Romans. Particularly noteworthy is the departure from the concept of dividing law into public and private based on the so-called criterion of benefit (utilitas). Rev. Płodzień emphasizes that the concept of state interest in Roman times was as vague as it is today. The narrative makes subtle use of modern civilist terminology.

Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei-NS-DAP). Poszczególne jego punkty uznał za wieczne i niezmienne. Miały się one stać świeckimi kanonami regulującymi życie i kierunki rozwoju nazistowskiego ruchu 1. Wśród nich znalazł się zaskakujący zapis: "Żądamy zastąpienia służącego materialistycznemu porządkowi świata prawa rzymskiego przez powszechne prawo niemieckie" (niem.: "Wir fordern Ersatz für das der materialistischen Weltordnung dienende römische Recht durch ein deutsches Gemeinrecht") 2. Regulacja ta po dziś dzień w równym stopniu budzi zainteresowanie, co zdziwienie badaczy. O ile bowiem wiele "przemyśleń" uwiecznionych w programie Hitler rozwinął następnie w Mein Kampf, to prawu rzymskiemu nie raczył tam już poświęcić nawet słowa. Owszem, w praktyce do końca życia dezaprobatę okazywał prawu oraz prawnikom. Co więcej, udało mu się

The Emperor, addressed by poor woman whose son has been unjustly slaughtered, decides to postpone his campaign and hear her case without delay. This story was popularised in various versions by medieval legends and caused a symbolic “redemption” of the pagan emperor. Consequently, the character of Trajan could serve as a personification of a fair judge. The pagan Trajan gained his place in both sacral and secular art and was represented near such powerful figures as Christ or king Solomon.

Następnie skoncentrowano się na domniemaniu ojcostwa, wskazując na korzenie rzymskie oraz na wyjątki. Odrębnym wątkiem jest egzemplarz Digestum Vetus pochodzący z przełomu XII i XIII w., przechowywany w Bibliotece Narodowej w Kórniku i znajdująca się w tekście ilustracja wypowiedzi do Ulpiana związanej z domniemaniem ojcostwa.

Niestety, autor nie wyjaśnia, co rozumie pod pojęciem "marksizm", ani nie cytuje literatury naukowej w celu zdefiniowania cech "marksistowskiego Katyliny". Jest to błąd, ponieważ poglądy polskich przedstawicieli doktryny marksistowskiej na temat postaci i dokonań Katyliny są analogiczne do poglądów Tomasza Banacha.
