Reception is a key concept in the history of European private law from the 12th till the 18th century. This concept underwent several re-definitions since its emergence in the 19th century, but it is still used to describe how Roman Law was received in Continental Europe. In that sense, reception was no simple borrowing of ancient rules from the Corpus Iuris of Justinian, but rather a complicated, multi-causal process of rationalization and assimilation thereof (F. Wieacker). Is this concept still meaningful for comparative legal history? In this short presentation (ca. 10 min) I will address this question bearing on German and Russian experience.
