<string language="fre"><![CDATA[On
15 March 1856, as the Congress of Paris is opening, Alphonse Royer – a man of letters, an Orientalist and a traveller who
had become director of the Imperial Opera – hands Napoleon III a note on the reform of the
Ottoman Empire, and more particularly on its civil codification. While the
reform of the old Empire and its inclusion in the Concert of Europe is actively
discussed by diplomats, the author submits to Napoleon III a personal and
original vision of Ottoman civil codification. A necessary initiative in the
vast movement of secularisation of Ottoman law – that Royer called for –, this codification, far from being conceived as a
work of regeneration of the common law of Turkey through the drafting of a code
superseding Sharia law, is designed on the contrary to combine the European
element with the Ottoman legal tradition, that is based on Islamic law and
jurisprudence. For Royer, who is surprisingly a relativist and hostile to any
form of legal acculturation, the "codification of current civil laws in
harmony with the needs of the time" cannot mean the more or less faithful
transposition of the provisions of the Napoleonic Code. The temptation of a
codification project thought through the prism of the French model is
discarded, but is soon replaced by another legal model. Thus, on 22 March 1856,
just a few days after the Royer note was sent to the Tuileries, a
circular issued by the Emperor's Civil Cabinet takes up the main lines of the
note, but adds more evocative terms – instead of the "harmonization" and
"codification of civil laws" soberly advocated by Royer, the pompous
expression "Corpus iuris turc" is now preferred to designate
the codifying initiative that fell to the Ottomans. The reference to the
Justinian compilations which is therefore made by a jurist in the Emperor's
Cabinet and not by Royer, appears to be an authoritative argument that gives a
different tone to the initial text.
Beyond
the originality and the historical and legal interest of the Royer note, it
will be necessary to assess its posterity, or at least its scope, by
confronting it with the turn taken by the Ottoman codification from the 1860s
onwards. Whether it be the first note of 1856, its avatars or the Ottoman
projects that succeeded it until 1868 – when civil codification was officially launched–, all these projects propose a method and a horizon
for civil codification, converging in some aspects and diverging in others.
Drawing on the the writings of French agents –  those
of Royer but also of official diplomats – as well as on reference works highlighting the forms
of "re-elaboration of ancient models", the challenge of this
presentation will also be to determine whether the invocation of Roman law as a
legal model to be imitated is a mere rhetorical device or whether it reveals a
deeper reflection on the part of those who use it on how to approach the
codification of a foreign law.]]></string></description>
