pl. veau havane moucheté d’époque, tit. doré sur pc. bordeaux, dos lisses ornés de fleurons et filets encadrants dorés, tr. jaspées, plats encadrés de filets à froid, filets dorés sur les coupes, (mors marqués, qq. petites épidermures, qq. marques de bibliothèque), texte très frais Édition posthume et mise à jour de ce commentaire dont l’originalité repose sur son approche et son interprétation historique des article de la coutumes de Paris. Et son analyse est particulièrement fouillée grâce à la connaissance qu’à l’auteur des différentes coutumes de France. Il fait d’ailleurs le vœu de publier un “Grand coutumier” qui ne verra jamais le jour puisque c’est Bourdot de Richebourg qui publiera la première édition d’une somme regroupant à la fois le texte des coutumes et leur commentaires. Et si De Laurrière n’est généralement pas considéré comme un grand juriste mais plus comme un compilateur, il est cependant l’un des premiers et des plus grands historiens de son temps pour ce qui concerne l’analyse des sources et leur évolution.
