Jacques Cujas was a French legal expert. He was prominent among the legal humanists or mos gallicus school, which sought to abandon the work of the medieval Commentators and concentrate on ascertaining the correct text and social context of the original works of Roman law.
Jacques Cujas is read about 21 times a day, in 16 languages.

The middle day of the days counted, so one week of news cannot move it. The line under it is the last 120 days, one point a day.
