Legal History and Comparative Law

First Published in 1990. Albert Kiralfy entered King’s College London as a student in the Faculty of Laws in 1932, graduated in 1935 and took his first higher degree in the following year. Apart from War Service (1939-45), he was a teaching member of the Faculty from 1937 until 1981 when, on his nominal retirement, the University of London conferred on him the title of Professor Emeritus. Professor Kiralfy’s contribution to legal literature, continuing to this day, may be said to have begun almost immediately after graduation, with special interest in comparative law, property law and law history.
