Extra informatie - Very good copy of the 'editio maior'. The first edition of De iure belli ac pacis ('On the Law of War and Peace') was published by Hugo Grotius in 1625, in Paris, where he lived as an exile. Although it earned for him the designation 'father of international law', it is not to be considered as a textbook on international law in the modern sense. His theme was rather, as judge Dumbauld states, the law common to all mankind, the law of the universal human society which prevails on earth. The law of mankind which Grotius expounded was considered as binding not only upon sovereign states as such in their mutual dealings, but also upon persons not yet organized as a unit of political society, as well as upon individuals belonging to different nations or situated in uninhabited or uncivilized areas, and even upon pirates and outlaws. Grotius describes private, penal and constitutional as well as international law. His book contains many opinions on private natural law which have become rules of European private law: a look at some of the codifications of the end of the 18th and the beginning of the 19th centuries will reveal some - mostly indirect - influences. This edition is mainly based on the text of the edition of 1631. Variants from the edition princeps of 1625, the Blaeu-edition of 1632, and the editions of 1642 & 1646 are marked in the text or in the notes. The present edition is the 1939 edition prepared by Mrs. B.J.A. de Kanter under the auspices of the Union Académique Internationale, known as the 'editio maior'. This monumental 1939 edition was by no means intended to produce a critical edition (which does not exist as yet and it will still take many decades before such an edition can be accomplished) but a basically unemended reproduction of the five editions prepared by Grotius himself. The critical apparatus of the 1939 edition was copied from the 1919 edition by P.C. Molhuysen, who in his turn allowed himself to be led by other editions - in particular those published by Jean Barbeyrac in the 18th century - as far as the specifications of the references and their linkage to the text are concerned.
