Otto Friedrich Gierke (11 January 1841 – 10 October 1921) was a German legal scholar and historian, and a leading light in the German Historical School of Jurisprudence. He is considered today as one of the most influential and important legal scholars of the 19th and early 20th centuries. In his four-volume magnum opus entitled Das deutsche Genossenschaftsrecht (German Law of Associations), he pioneered the study of social groups and the importance of associations in German life, which bridged the divide of private and public law."Natural Law and the Theory of Society 1500 to 1800" was part of the magnum opus and that is reflected in the theme running through it linking the state, society, and other groupings to the natural law tradition. The main text is accompanied by extensive notes by Gierke, a lecture by Ernst Troeltsch on "Natural Law and Humanity", and a very full and useful introduction by Ernest Barker, Professor of Political Science at Cambridge University, who also carried out the translation.For every sale made Billowness Books donates 50p to a literacy charity: Book Aid International; Books Abroad; or World Literacy Foundation
