abstract:
It is proposed to re-read the legal and literary sources, with the aim of realizing a new and
renewed reflection on the legal qualification of the sea. In particular, it deals with the concept of the sea in
ancient authors, considering some literary sources, sometimes neglected by the doctrine or just cited, and then
propose the reconstruction of the lines of jurisprudential interpretation of the sea in Roman law by examining
the testimonies of the Roman Jurists from Labeone and Aristone to get to Ulpiano and Marciano. Following a
chronological course, it is framing the jurists' attestations, for the contents of the texts considered, in the field
of the ius civile, ius gentium and ius natural.
