Evidence for Inclusion in Wythe's Library

Listed in the Jefferson Inventory of Wythe's Library as [?] juris civilis. fol. and given by Thomas Jefferson to James Dinsmore. While the precise title and work are unknown, it is highly likely that Jefferson's notation refers to a copy of Corpus Juris Civilis. Brown's Bibliography[1] includes the 1726, 2 volume, folio edition based in part on the copy Jefferson sold to the Library of Congress.[2] George Wythe's Library[3] on LibraryThing notes "Precise work/edition unknown. Possibly an edition of Denis Godefroy's Corpus juris civilis."
