A counselor to the Parlement of Paris from 1541, Andre Tiraqueau was a dominant figure in sixteenth-century French jurisprudence and a leading legal humanist. First published in 1543, De Utroque Retractu is his landmark comparative study examining the intersection of Roman civil law and the customary law (coutumes) of Poitou, specifically focusing on the legal rights of retraction (the right to reclaim familial or transacted property). Highly influential in reconciling regional customary traditions with classical Roman frameworks, the work was widely received and went through numerous editions well into the seventeenth century. Based on paleographic evidence and thematic content, this copy features extensive margins heavily annotated by a contemporary hand in the late sixteenth or early seventeenth century. The anonymous annotator exhibits a sophisticated command of local practice, offering a critical dialogue with Tiraqueau's text. The commentary focuses heavily on issues of inheritance and succession law, alongside notes on statutory penalties (f. 16/p. 86) and legal prohibitions against the alienation of third-party goods (f. 200). Juris. Lyon: Apud Guliel. Rouillium, 1555. (illustrator).
