Abstract

François Hotman (1524-1590), a distinguished personality of the French Renaissance, has had multiple interests in the fields of law, history, literature or religious propaganda for the Reform. He wrote in the field of law and he contributed to the development of the study and teaching methods of Roman law. His preoccupations in this domain have proven to be full of daring. His master work will always be the history tractate Franco-Gallia, which has been a huge success at that time. He was also considered to be one of the most important renascentist political writers. He was appreciated and studied for his measureless erudition and his commentaries regarding the operas of the antiquity have been considered to be remarkably valuable (especially the ones about Cicero's discourses). The presence of the 15 exemplaries of his papers in the most important Transylvanian libraries proves the fact that Hotman's writings have been read, quoted, and collected by our intellectuals. Bringing them forward has been an honor for us. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
