Liutprand Leges Anno I (713 - 713) Liutprand |
Quotation |
...His ergo expletis recolimus quoniam rovustissimus decessor noster atque emenentissimus Rothari rex, sicut ipse est in scriptis affatus suis superius in langobardis edictum renovavit atque instituit: ubi et prudenter hoc inserere curavit dicens ut quis ille langobardorum princeps eius successor superfluum quid inibi reperit ex eo sapienter aufferret et quod minus invenerit deo sibi inspirante adicerit. Post hoc enim gloriosissimus Grimoald rex quae illi secundum deo placita fuerunt minuit et empliavit...…Ob hoc ego in dei nomine liutprand excellentissimus christianus langobardorum rex anno deo protegente regni mei primo pridiae kalendarum martiarum indictione undecima una cum omnibus iudicibus tam de austriae et neustriae partibus necnon et de tusciae finibus vel cum reliquis fedelibus meis langobardis et cuncto populo adsistente haec nobis commune consilio iuxta ob dei timore atquae amore ac sancta conparuerunt et placuerunt. |
Translation |
Therefore these things having been fulfilled, we recall that our most powerful predecessor, the most eminent King Rothair, just as is set forth in the preceding writing, renewed and established an edict for the Lombards. There he wisely took care to add that should a prince of the Lombards, one of his successors, discover anything superfluous there, he should remove it, and that which he finds to be lacking, he should add, under inspiration from God. And later the most glorious King Grimwald, with the help of God, removed or expanded those laws which seemed fitting to him. …Thus I, Liutprand, most excellent king of the Lombards, in the name of the Lord and with the protection of God in the first year of my reign; and on the day before the first of March, in the eleventh indiction, together with all my judges from the regions of Austria as well as of Neustria, and even from the area of Tuscany, as well as with the remainder of my sworn Lombard fideles (followers) and with the rest of the people attending, with the common counsel of these people and with the fear and love and holiness of God, [I decree] these laws as suitable.
(Emended from K. Fischer-Drew, trans., The Lombard Laws (1973), pp. 144-45) |
Summary |
In Liutprand's Prologue to the legislation issued in his first year as king (713 CE), the act of issuing new laws is explictly connected to the previous law-giving activities of King Rothari (643 CE) and of King Grimwald (666 CE). The prologue then justifies the addition of new law where needed, and the emendation or removal of superflous law, in relation to the strategies employed by these previous Lombard kings, and also explicitly ties it to biblical law and in relation to divine inspiration. The prologue concludes by naming Liutprand as the law-giver and establishing the date in relation to the year of his reign and indiction, and that the laws were issued and approved in conjunction with the judges from Austria, Neustria and Tuscany, as well as his Lombard followers [fideles]. |
