Tractatus de procuratoribus auctore Ludovico Cencio jc. perusino, opus posthumum a Petro Hyeronimo Cencio ...

The Tractatus de procuratoribus, authored by the Perugian jurist Ludovico Cenci, represents a significant example of 19th-century Italian legal scholarship focused on the role and authority of the procurator within the civil and canonical legal frameworks. Published posthumously in 1857 under the editorial oversight of Petro Hyeronimo Cenci, the work sought to synthesize long-standing traditions of civil law practice, providing a structured analysis of the representative functions essential to judicial proceedings in the mid-19th century.

Published by Laurentius Melchiorri in Rome, the edition reflects the scholarly rigor characteristic of the mid-1800s, a period when traditional Roman law treatises continued to be printed for practitioners and academic study despite the emergence of modern civil codes. The design of the volume adheres to the typical aesthetic of mid-century ecclesiastical and legal printing, emphasizing textual clarity and formal bibliographic structure to ensure the longevity of the author’s posthumous contribution to the study of legal agency.
