Sumario: | The quadricentenary of Hugo Grotius' Mare liberum (1609-2009) offered the opportunity to publish a reliable critical edition - combined with a revised English translation - of Grotius' first publication in the field of international law. Starting from a comparison with the autographic manuscript, Robert Feenstra undertook a verification of the text of the first and only authorised edition - in particular of the numerous marginal references - resulting in many corrections and further annotations. In his 'Editor's Introduction', he explains the history of the later editions of the Latin text and the translations of Mare liberum . Jeroen Vervliet's 'General Introduction' aims at providing a better understanding of the circumstances in which Hugo Grotius wrote this work; it elucidates the legal argument used by Grotius, and the reaction of his contemporary opponents. |
