Abstract

The appearance of these two works in the Classics of International Law, the publication of which has been ,undertaken by the Carnegie Institution of Washington under the general editorship of Dr. James Brown 'Scott, is an event of great importance in the history of the literature of International Law. Several years ago Dr. Scott called the attention of the authorities of the Carnegie Institution to the need of reprints .of the texts of the great classics of International Law, each to be accompanied by a readable English translation. The Carnegie Institution undertook the work as outlined by Dr. Scott, and the first fruits of his plan are these four volumes. The texts of Ayala and Zouche 'have not been easily accessible and, few even of those engaged in -teaching International Law have been able to acquire more than a second hand knowledge of their writings.
