They suit only a particular place at a particular time. ●There is some eternal law. It is good for all times and places. Write about the difference between an ordinary citizen and a lawyer: When asked to explain the difference between an ordinary citizen and a lawyer, a well-known barrister explained, “If an ordinary citizen gave you an orange, he would say, “I give you this orange.” But if a lawyer gave you an orange, he would say, “I hereby give, grant and convey to you all my interest, right, title and claim of and in this orange, together with all its rind, skin, juice and pulp, and all right and advantage therein with full power to bite, cut, suck, or otherwise eat or consume the said orange, or give away or dispose of to any third party the said orange, with or without its rind, skin, juice and pulp, subject to any amendments subsequently introduced or drawn up to this agreement.”

Useful expressions:

Most detailed ancient legal codes

Was carved into a great stone pillar

More extensive than any that had gone before

The cruel principle of revenge was observed

To receive as punishment precisely those injuries and damages they had inflicted upon their victims

Faced the death penalty

To lose the hand that struck the blow

The code outlawed private blood feuds

Took account of the circumstances of the offender

Lost a civil case

Be awarded less if he won

An advance on earlier tribal customs

The penalty could not be harder than the crime

 

Write about Hammurabi’s Code: B 1901 году французские археологи обнаружили каменный столб среди руин персидского города Сузы. Текст, высеченный на столбе, был древнейшим сводом законов. Он был составлен Хаммурапи, царем Вавилона, в XVIII столетии до н.э. Кодекс Хаммурапи состоит из 282 статей. Установленный в храме вавилонского бога Мардука, «столб законов» должен был служить правосудию и одновременно напоминать: законы должны знать все. Кодекс охватывал все сферы жизни. Он ставил вне закона кровную месть, убийство, похищение невесты. Наказания за них были суровы. В основе кодекса лежит идея талиона: наказание должно быть «равным» преступлению – «око за око, зуб за зуб». В соответствии с кодексом, если человек, обвинивший другого в краже, не мог привести свидетелей, подтверждающих его слова, ему грозила смерть как клеветнику. Кодекс также охватывал вопросы имущества и наследства. Хаммурапи устанавливал денежный штраф, при назначении которого учитывалось как само правонарушение, так и социальное положение граждан.
