Zasada praedia debent esse vicina w prawie rzymskim oraz jej znaczenie w polskim prawie cywilnym

Abstract

Apart from universal principles regulating servitude, Roman law encoded also those that referred strictly to land servitude. These were the principles that specified their execution. The present article focuses on the praedia debent esse vicina principle, which was known already in Roman law. The author, relating to the opinions of jurists, not only analyses the significance of the aforementioned principle in Roman Law, but also makes an attempt at demonstrating it in the Polish civil law.
