Doctor and Student
Doctor and Student 《博士与学生》 由克里斯托弗·圣·日尔曼〔Christopher St.German, (1)1460-1540〕所着的一部关于普通法的着作，它采用了一位神学博士与一位普通法学生对话的形式，包括两个对话，其中第一个用的是拉丁语，第二个更长一些的对话用的是英语，后来在第二个对话上又增加了13章有关议会权力和管辖的内容。在本书中，作者用宗教和道德标准对普通法规则进行了评判，并对理性法、自然法和普通法的基础提出了许多质疑。他将教会法学者关于不同法律及法律之目的、性质的研究纳入到了通行的形式中，并促进了这些原则在不同方向上的发展。本书1523年以拉丁文出版，1530年又用英文出版，它对衡平法的发展产生了重大影响。
