Description:Excerpt from A Treatise: Possession of Land, With a Chapter on the Real Property Limitation Acts, 1833 and 1874 The object of this Work is to state the nature and legal effects of possession of land according to the present English law, and, as a means thereto, it deals with the learning of possession both in the Roman law and in the former English law. So far as relates to the nature of possession and to the acquisition and loss of possession, this reference to Roman law requires no justification. Notwithstanding the differences between the two systems, no writer on possession in English law can afford to neglect the work of the Roman jurists and of their modern commentators. Among such commentators two are preeminent, Savigny and Ihering. Savigny's treatise remains unrivalled as a systematic exposition of the Roman law of possession, but on various points notably in regard to the animus domini - Ihering has vigorously attacked it; and his views, founded as they are on considerations of the practical working of the law, are well worthy of attention. I have accordingly made frequent reference to both these authorities. In treating of possession it is necessary to distinguish between the mere fact of possession and such possession as the law recognizes for civil purposes; and to avoid any chance of confusion, I have endeavoured always to describe the possession under consideration as either actual or civil possession.
