Retell of two texts

I want to retell you two texts that I have read at home.

The first one is called “The Legal Heritage of Greece and Rome”. It is about laws of Greece and Rome. At first I want to say that Greeks were the first people who developed a concept of law that separated everyday law from religious beliefs. They believed that laws were made by the people for the people.

In the 7^th century B.C. Draco wrote the first Greece’s code of law where death was the punishment for most offences.

Some time later Solon, who was a poet, military hero, etc, devised a new code of laws. Trial by jury was retained, but enslaving debtors was prohibited. Because of Solon’s law citizens of Athens were eligible to serve in the assembly and courts were established where they could appeal different decisions.

Greeks contributed to the Romans the concept of “natural law”. This law was based on the belief that certain basic principle are above the laws of nation. Those princeples arise from the nature of people. This concept had a profound effect on the modern world.

The second text is called “Solon”. Speaking about it I want to say that Solon is known as one of the Seven Wise Men of Greece. He ended exclusive aristocratic control of the government and substituted a system of control by the wealthy. He also introduced a new and more human code of laws.

He was of noble descent but moderate means. Society was dominated by an aristocracy of birth who owned the best land, monopolized the government and this time was troubled for Greeks.

He believed in moderation and in an ordered society in which each class has its own proper place and function. But also his solution was not revolution but reform.

The greatest Solon’s contribution to the future of Greeks was his new code of laws. However, Draco’s laws were written “in blood”, Solon revised every statute because he thought that his laws had to be more humane.
