Presenting essential facts, evidence and context, for intelligent discussion
Welcome to Jon’s Essentialia. I use my varied creative & artistic skills to advocate for liberty, America, Israel, children & dogs, particularly through graphic visualizations. I’m publishing at Substack to complement the content at JonSutz.com.
essentialia (e-sen-shee-ay-lee-[schwa]). [Law Latin “essentials”] Scots law. Terms or qualities essential to the existence of a particular right or contract.
“Essentialia. This term, applied to a contract, or right, or other subject of law, signifies those things which are essential to the very being of the contract or right, as such, and any alteration in which would make the contract or right resolve into one of another kind.”
- William Bell, Bell’s Dictionary and Digest of the Law of Scotland 406 (George Watson ed., 7th ed. 1890).
