  Article:   THE MUNICIFENT DONOR AND HIS REVENGE ON THE UNGRATEFUL DONEE: THEN AND NOW.

Authors:  RENA VAN DEN BERGH.
 
       
         
  Abstract:  This article focuses on the munificent donor and the ungrateful donee. Various relevant topics will be discussed, such as the nature of a donation, the requirement of registration and the circumstances that could lead to the revocation of a gift. The position in Roman, Roman-Dutch and South African law will be researched, with a view to determining whether and to what extent the latter two legal systems were built on Roman law.

Keywords: Donatio; donor; donee; donatio inter vivos; revocatio; lex Cincia de donis et muneribus; insinuatio; animus donandi; ingratitude; liberalitas; munificentia; generosity.
