Journal's description  
In 1988, with the support of the Institute of European Derecho Común, University of Murcia, Antonio Pérez Martín, Professor of Legal History, founded, directed and edited GLOSSAE. Journal of European Legal History, alongside José Perona, serving as secretary.

The founding of the Institute and of the journal: GLOSSAE, was intimately related to the incorporation of Spain in the European Community on 1 January 1986. Coinciding with this event, Antonio Pérez Martín felt it necessary to pay more attention to the European dimension of legal history. Such intrigue gave rise to this new journal, which had as its aim, the scientific study and awareness of European law in the framework of the ius commune. This aim distinguished it from the majority of other Spanish legal history journals, which had national aspects as their dominant focus.

The intention to promote and publish studies referring to European legal history was evident from the first issue of GLOSSAE. In its prologue, the journal asserted that European legal history was to be understood as, ‘the legal culture common to all European territories since the legal renaissance of the eleventh century (particularly in Bologna), which would later extend across Europe until the nineteenth century, where this legal culture was codified, constituting the base of the current laws in the different jurisdictions of Europe and Latin America.’

Between 1988 and 1996 eight issues were published, receiving notable academic welcome. Such recognition allowed the journal to appear alongside other prestigious legal history journals in the databases of DICE, ISOC and in the Catalogue of the Latindex system.

After an interruption in the publication of the journal for more than fifteen years, GLOSSAE begins its second run with the idea of further developing the primary characteristic of the first run of the journal. It will continue its markedly international character and seeks to attract the interest of Spanish, European and Anglo-American legal scholars. The possibility of publishing articles that deal with the legal sources and institutions outside of the western legal tradition should not be ruled out. These areas will hold vital interest, bearing in mind the roles they played in Roman law and the legal science of ius commune. This was explicit in the change of journal’s subtitle: ‘European Journal of Legal History’ was changed from the original ‘Journal of European Legal History’. This change served to broaden the thematic and geographical scope of the journal.

With this widening of the thematic and geographical scope, and whilst bearing in mind the importance and predominance that English has acquired in recent years, articles are generally published – with certain exceptional cases – in Spanish or English.

The publication of GLOSSAE online will further contribute to the dissemination and internationalisation of the journal. It is hoped that it will be easily used and consulted by legal historians all over the world.

In accordance with this global dissemination, it is fitting to emphasise the diversity of nationalities within the Editorial Board and the International Advisory Board of this second run of GLOSSAE, in its re-emergence as ‘European Journal of Legal History’, reaching not only Spanish and European legal traditions (as it did during its first run) but also Anglo-American, alongside other non-Western legal traditions, such as the Asian, Hindu, and Islamic traditions.
