Viewing Roscoe Pound, "Interpretations of Legal History" (1923).

Roscoe Pound, "Interpretations of Legal History" (1923).

Here Roscoe Pound describes various methods of interpretation of legal history---the political interpretation, economic interpretation, biological interpretation, great-lawyer interpretation and even an engineering interpretation of legal history.

Legal historians today do not "do" legal history as Pound did. He was heavily influenced by Hegel and Kant and frequently cited their writings whereas today's professional legal historians rarely mention them.
