Influenţa recepţiilor romano-bizantine asupra evoluţiei cadrului juridic şi instituţional românesc
The influence of romanian-byzantine receptions on the evolution of the romanian legal and institutional framework

Summary/Abstract: Byzantine legal monuments influenced the development of the feudal written law of the Romanian Principalities. Byzantine secular and ecclesiastical laws were first used in Slavic translation and then translated into Romanian. During the Phanariot rule, the Byzantine legal texts were sometimes used even in the Modern Greek language, as evidenced by the court books of the time. The Byzantine domination of the 10th - 13th centuries stimulated the development of feudal production relations and the consolidation of overlapping native strata. At the same time, the existence of the feudal law, allowed the natives to come into direct contact with the Byzantine law that they kept and circulated in the North of the Danube. In these conditions, we can talk about the phenomenon of reception, which on the territory of our country presented specific aspects, related to the persistence of Roman-Byzantine legal traditions.
