In the Law Library of Congress, there exists an archive of materials consisting of the notebooks, manuscripts, and fragmentary jottings relating to the Corpus Juris Civilis, produced by the nineteenth-century philologist and historian of Roman law Paul Krueger, that has gone uninventoried and unstudied for more than eighty years. A preliminary survey of these writings has shown that the archive contains materials relating to Krueger�s work on the Corpus of Justinian that detail his working methods and his collations of important medieval manuscripts relating to the Corpus. The archive also contains many unpublished commentaries and lectures on other seminal classical legal texts. Mr. Hessler provides an overview of this important archive and discusses its place in the history of Roman law and classical philology.
