Online resources: Offering a window into the history of the modern legal profession in Western Europe, this book presents a history of lawyers in the most industrialised city on the Mediterranean. Far from being mere curators of static law, Barcelona's lawyers were at the centre of social conflict and political and economic change, mediating between state, family, and society. Beginning with the resurrection of a decadent bar during the Enlightenment, this book traces the historical evolution of lawyers throughout the long nineteenth century.
