説明

This paper examines a legal doctrine in Roman law and its background, namely, “things delivered to prostitutes cannot be claimed for return (D. 12, 5, 4, 3).” In order to justify the taxation already being enforced, the jurist Ulpianus acknowledged the immorality of the customer (giver) while denying the immorality of the act of receiving payment by the prostitute( recipient). By so doing he confirmed prostitution as a“ necessary evil.” While there are historical sources that agree with anti-prostitution jurists by regulating prostitutes as immoral beings, there are also those that allow gifts to prostitutes and the collection of rent from the profits of brothels. This contradiction results from a conflict between morality and practicality.
