?“Certainly no other genre is as representative of German law in international comparison as the comprehensive commentary. The first commentary originated clause by clause, paragraph by paragraph for the first great German codification, the Commercial Code. Staub’s comprehensive commentary established this tradition. A great Jewish scholar, who worked at Humboldt-University but was not allowed to become a full professor, created this groundbreaking format. Its content continues to set the standard today.” Prof. Dr. Dr. Stefan Grundmann, LL.M., Humboldt-University Berlin “Staub’s methods set the style-standard for all modern legal commentaries: beginning with the provision’s objective, he then expands on the facts, highlights the central terms and definitions, refers to systematically related provisions, and substantiates his ideas with example quotes from case law and literature.”PD Dr. Jan Thiessen, Humboldt-University Berlin
