F. Minno’s Writings
1. Laws and Directives
Preventing War
26.21 From Minno’s writings:[1]
If anyone is so wicked as to steal from our neighboring peoples, commit murderous deeds, burn houses, defile girls, or commit any other deed that is wicked, and our neighbors wish to have it avenged, then it is right to arrest the culprit and execute him in their presence to prevent it leading to a war in which the innocent would pay the price for the guilty.
If they wish to spare his life and allow him to purchase clemency, that may [027] be tolerated, though if the culprit is a king, a reeve, an alderman, or any one else charged with upholding morality, we must make good the evil.[2] But the culprit must have his punishment.
If he bears an honorable name from his ancestors on his shield, his kinsmen shall no longer have the right to bear the name, in order that families will feel responsible for one another’s conduct.
