Dr Peter Candy (St Catharine's College, Cambridge) tells us about his love story with Roman Law - going from a Literature & History undergraduate degree to a PhD in Roman Law. He shares about his research on Roman Maritime Law, how that compares with modern maritime law, about Roman slavery and society before and after the rise of Christianity.

He also shares why he would not recommend swimming in the River Cam, about his favourite Roman jurist(s?), and a favourite bench in Cambridge.
