Justinian I · The Digest of Justinian §5.1.9.pr
Jurisdiction and Inclusion of Islands in Provinces
Summary
This section establishes that the islands belonging to Italy and to each province are treated legally as part of Italy and the respective province.
Notes
- §5.1.9.pret cuiusque prouinciae — Corresponding to the structure of the first clause `insulae Italiae pars Italiae sunt`, common elements (the subject `insulae`, the noun `pars`, and the verb `sunt`) are omitted in the second clause. It should be understood as `et [insulae] cuiusque prouinciae [pars] [cuiusque] prouinciae [sunt]` ("and the islands of each province are part of that province").
