Policies for The Gruter Institute Classics Series

The Gruter Institute Classics in Law and Biology republishes classic papers, including papers already published in Gruter Institute books. Readers are welcome to download the papers for their own use, and professors can freely circulate these papers to students for the purpose of teaching. At this time we only accept invited submissions for republication. Authors who would like to propose a classic paper or set of paper should email the editors.
