    (Dupin no. 1170 for the Judicial Practice and no. 999 for the Enchiridion). Imbert was the first great criminal lawyer of the 16th century, whose Judicial Practice appeared in Latin as early as 1538 and, due to its success, was translated into French by the author himself in 1548. Numerous editions followed. It is one of the essential testimonies of French criminal law prior to Colbert's ordinances. Furthermore, it is remarkably modern in its presentation; it should be noted that the work begins with a methodical table of contents, attached to the binding, which attempts to describe the judicial institutions in a synoptic manner. The Enchiridion is an alphabetical collection (particularly remarkable given the date of its writing) in which one finds such modern terms as consent, cause, condition, and contract. The work as a whole constitutes a dictionary of 16th-century law, updated to reflect 17th-century developments by later annotators. Our copy is in used condition, probably from a library and bound in the 19th century, but it remains an important working document for criminal law.
