king of the Visigoths, with the See also:advice of his bishops and nobles, in the twenty-second See also:year of his reign (A.D. 5o6). It comprises sixteen books of the Theodosian See also:code; the Novels of See also:Theodosius IL, Valclrtinian III., See also:Marcian, Majorianus and See also:Severus; the Institutes of See also:Gaius; five books of the Sententiae Receptae of See also:Julius See also:Paulus; thirteen titles of the Gregorian code; two titles of the Hermogenian code; and a fragment of the first See also:book of the Responsa Papiniani. It is termed a code (codex), in the certificate of Anianus, the king's referendary, but unlike the code of Justinian, from which the writings of jurists were excluded, it comprises both imperial constitutions (leges) and juridical See also:treatises (See also:jura). From the circumstance that the Breviarium has prefixed to it a royal rescript (commonitorium) directing that copies of it, certified under the See also:hand of Anianus, should be received exclusively as law throughout the See also:kingdom of the Visigoths, the compilation of the code has been attributed to Anianus by many writers, and it is frequently designated the Breviary of Anianus (Breviarium Aniani). The code, however, appears to have been known amongst the Visigoths by the See also:title of "Lex See also:Romana," or " Lex Theodosii," and it was not until the 16th See also:century that the title of " Breviarium " was introduced to distinguish it from a recast of the code, which was introduced into See also:northern See also:Italy in the 9th century for the use of the See also:Romans in See also:Lombardy. This recast of the Visigothic code has been preserved in a MS. known as the Codex Utinensis, which was formerly kept in the archives of the See also:cathedral of See also:Udine, but is now lost; and it was published in the 18th century for the first See also:- TIME (0. Eng. Lima, cf. Icel. timi, Swed. timme, hour, Dan. time; from the root also seen in " tide," properly the time of between the flow and ebb of the sea, cf. O. Eng. getidan, to happen, " even-tide," &c.; it is not directly related to Lat. tempus)

time by P. Canciani in his collection of See also:ancient See also:laws entitled Barbarorum Leges Antiquae. Another MS. of this Lombard recast of the Visigothic code was discovered by Hanel in the library of St See also:Gall. The See also:chief value of the Visigothic code consists in the fact that it is the only collection of Roman Law in which the five first books of the Theodosian code and five, books of the Sententiae Receptae of Julius Paulus have been preserved, and until the See also:discovery of a MS. in the See also:chapter library in See also:Verona, which contained the greater See also:part of the Institutes of Gaius, it was the only See also:work in which any portion
of the institutional writings of that See also:great jurist had come down to us.
The most See also:complete edition of the Breviarium will be found in the collection of Roman law published under the title of See also:Jus Civile Ante-Justinianum (See also:Berlin, 1815). See also G.
Hanel's Lex Romana Visigothorum (Berlin, 1847-1849).
