BASILICA (bouvier) | BASILICA, civil law. This is derived from a Greek word, which signifies 
 imperial constitutions. The emperor Basilius, finding the Corpus Juris 
 Civilis of Justinian too long and obscure, resolved to abridge it, and under 
 his auspices the work proceeded to the fortieth book, which, at his death, 
 remained unfinished. His son and successor, Leo, the philosopher, continued 
 the work, and published it in sixty books, about the year 880. Constantine 
 Porphyro-genitus, younger brother of Leo, revised the work, re-arranged it, 
 and republished it, Anno Domini, 910. From that time the laws of Justinian 
 ceased to have any force in the eastern empire, and the Basilica were the 
 foundation of the law observed there till Constantine XIII, the last of the 
 Greek emperors, under whom, in 1453, Constantinople was taken by Mahomet the 
 Turk, who put an end to the empire and its laws. Histoire de la 
 Jurisprudence Etienne, Intr. a 1'etude du Droit Romain, Sec. LIII. The 
 Basilica were written in Greek. They were translated into Latin by J. Cujas 
 (Cujacius) Professor of Law in the University of Bourges, and published at 
 Lyons, 22d of January, 1566, in one vol. fo.
