Scarce. The foundation text for analytical English jurisprudence. The first volume of The Province of Jurisprudence appeared in 1832. being ten lectures compressed into six. These were his lectures delivred in the newly founded University of London (later University College), where he had been appointed professor of jurisprudence in 1826. "Interest in his lectures was revived when Sir Henry Maine lectured on jurisprudence and emphasized the value of Austin's examination of the meanings and uses of legal terms. In consequence Austin's widow in 1861 published a new edition of the Province and his Lectures on Jurisprudence . . ., with a biographical sketch by herself. The Province and the Lectures subsequently exercised enormous influence on jurisprudence in England, though it is now known that Austin had been greatly influenced by Bentham, with whom he was very friendly. The importance of his work was the strict delimitation of the sphere of law and its distinction from that of morality, elaboration of the idea of law as a kind of command, and the close examination of the connotations of such common legal terms and ideas as right, duty, liberty, injury, punishment, rights in rem and rights in personam . . . [F]rom his day until recently the predominant approach of English jurisprudence has been that of analysis of legal terms and concpets" [Oxford Companion to Law, p. 96].
