  • The Commentaries on the Laws of England are an influential 18th-century treatise on the common law of England by Sir William Blackstone, originally published by the Clarendon Press at Oxford, 1765–1770. The work is divided into four volumes, on the rights of persons, the rights of things, of private wrongs and of public wrongs. The Commentaries were long regarded as the leading work on the development of English law and played a role in the development of the American legal system. They were in fact the first methodical treatise on the common law suitable for a lay readership since at least the Middle Ages. The common law of England has relied on precedent more than statute and codifications and has been far less amenable than the civil law, developed from the Roman law, to the needs of a treatise. The Commentaries were influential largely because they were in fact readable, and because they met a need. The Commentaries are often quoted as the definitive pre-Revolutionary source of common law by United States courts. Opinions of the Supreme Court of the United States quote from Blackstone's work whenever they wish to engage in historical discussion that goes back that far, or farther (for example, when discussing the intent of the Framers of the Constitution). The book was famously used as the key in Benedict Arnold's book cipher, which he used to communicate secretly with his conspirator John André during their plot to betray the Continental Army during the American Revolution.

  • Book Commentaries on the Laws of England est un traité portant sur le droit anglais. Écrit par le jurisconsulte britannique William Blackstone, il fut publié pour la première fois entre 1765 et 1769 par la maison d'édition Oxford University Press. Le traité constitue la principale doctrine servant à la compréhension des normes juridiques qui composent le droit anglais. Son analyse porte principalement sur les jugements rendus par les cours de justice de l'Angleterre et est à la base du développement des systèmes juridiques de common law. Depuis le Moyen Âge, il s'avère le premier traité en son genre qui fut adapté à un lectorat de non-spécialistes. Contrairement au droit romano-germanique développé depuis le droit romain, le droit de l'Angleterre se fondait principalement sur l'application de jugements judiciaires prononcés indépendamment par des autorités locales, plutôt que sur celle de codes et lois édictés par des organisations centrales. Par son caractère décentralisé, le droit anglais nécessitait alors un besoin de cohésion entre les autorités judiciaires. Du coup, l'exposition d'un rationalisme systémique fut la clef de voûte dans le développement d'une influence qui s'opère aujourd'hui dans tous les ressorts de common law. En tant que référence historique, le traité se divise en quatre volumes portant sur le droit des personnes, le droit de propriété, les fautes civiles et les infractions criminelles. (fr)
