Prussian codification of 1794 as a monument of law and an object of study

The article is devoted to the general analysis of Landrecht of 1794 - a monument of law, which, according to the author, is unfounded, ignored by legal historians. Landrecht is unique in many ways: an unprecedented scope, the number of branches of law included, the legal sources used, the detailed method of presenting the rules, legal technique and language, the history of creation, focus on application in judicial practice, low “viability”, etc. Explain why the legislative act has such characteristics - the task of the historian of law. The study of the realities associated with this codification, the analysis of the structure, institutions and legal terminology, and finally, the translation and publication into Russian will fill the gap in historical and legal science and help in solving the most important issues for modern law enforcement practice, such as: assessment criteria legal act (understandability, accessibility, applicability, optimal combination of volume, structure and content, compliance with the ideological program of state power, continuity of legal norms and institutions, and many others) and the use of the legal experience of the past in the modern legislative process and law enforcement
