German term
Rechtsraum
German to English
Art/Literary
Law (general)
early medieval European law
Is this a syn. for legal status (Rechtl. Stellung)? '...given their own place in law'? Here's the context -
Um Früchte und Haustiere zu schützen, waren die Gärten des frühen Mittelalters eingehegt (Hortus conclusus), sie beanspruchten einen eigenen Rechtsraum.
(an odd omission in L'scheidt)
Thanks in advance..

there were subject to their own legal interpretation (legal domain
not sure whether this fits into a medieval legal system; but it seems that they were legally separate from other claims... hope this helps
Note from asker:
Certainly looks helpful (and so fast - thank you!) - 'represented a legal domain of their own', then? |
