    An exceptional document. These are the Civil Code lectures taken by a student at the Grenoble Faculty of Law between 1882 and 1887. These two bound volumes are arranged according to the following model: lecture notes (with marginal annotations concerning recent case law), followed by the student's personal notes for each lesson. The dates and indications of location suggest that these are not the actual notes taken during the lectures but rather their fair copy. Generally speaking, it is a fairly legible manuscript (except for the personal notes), without gaps; the outlines are summarized at the beginning of each lesson, making it quite easy to consult. The lectures are those of Messrs. Trouiller and Tartari, covering the entire Code. However, there is a lecture on divorce by Beudant, given in 1884-85, the very year of the adoption of the law relating to divorce, which consequently constitutes one of the most immediate sources of legal thought on the subject. At the end of the second volume, one also finds a lecture by the renowned criminal lawyer Garraud on the Assize Court and a lecture on insurance law. Some sections are covered twice, year after year. It should be noted that Louis Stouff subsequently pursued a career as a legal historian and taught, notably at the Faculty of Law in Dijon. He published numerous books and articles on this subject (see the list in Grandin, Vol. 3, p. 649). Overall, this is a rare and exceptionally high-quality account of civil law courses taught at the end of the 19th century. Moreover, upon reading it, one can appreciate the difference between the oral presentation of the lectures and the written versions produced by the professors, especially in that the latter adhere much less closely to the rules of exegetical exposition, even though the structure of the lectures themselves remains strictly based on the Civil Code.
