The Byzantine Law against the Jews: The Macedonian Legislation During the Byzantine era, the Macedonian legislation represents a kind of model policy concerning the Jews. A number of sources indicate that both Basilius I and his son Leo VI promoted a real persecution that reached also South Italy: the first is found in the two legal manuals, the Prochiron (39.21 e 32) and the Eisagoge (40.33 and 34; 9.13), another in the great collection of the Basilika together with the Novel 55, and yet another in an addition to a norm preserved into the Book of the Prefect (6.16), all of which communicate that measures were taken to prevent Jews from owning slaves because of the fear that the Jews would eventually circumcise and convert their those they owned. ; La legislazione macedone, per quanto riguarda la questione degli ebrei, costituisce una sorta di modello. Basilio I e Leone VI, padre e figlio, promossero nei loro confronti una vera e propria persecuzione, attestata anche in Italia meridionale da varie fonti: in primo luogo, in due manuali giuridici, ilProchiron (39.21 e 32) e laEisagoge (40.33 e 34; 9.13), quindi nella grande raccolta dei Basilici,insieme allaNovella 55, oltre a una norma preservata nel Libro del Prefetto (6.16), fra le cui misure vi è il divieto di possedere schiavi, circonciderli e convertirli. Nel passaggio dai Basilici alla Novella 55, in particolare, emerge un processo di semplificazione fra legge "antica" e "nuova", rivolto non solo a mantenere, ma anche a introdurre forme di innovazione.

This book is the result of discussions that took place during the XXIII Forum of the Association of Young Legal Historians held in Naples in the spring of 2017. ; The collection of thirty-five essays presented here examines the links forged through the ages between the realm of law and the expressions of the humanistic culture. The essays are organized into sections of ten chapters based around ten different themes. Two main perspectives emerged: in some articles the topic relates to the conventional approach of 'law and/in humanities' (iconography, literature, architecture, cinema, music), other articles are about more traditional connections between fields of knowledge (in particular, philosophy, political experiences, didactics). The variety of authorial nationalities gives the collection a multicultural character and the historiographical interpretation is the element that unites the collection, with a breadth of the chronological period goes from antiquity to the contemporary age.
