"The Coing Library reveals the spectrum of an extraordinary scholar's life. Both regarding his position of a leading jurist in Germany and Europe and his universal erudition, no other comparable law scholar can be found on the old continent. The focuses of his scientific work: civil law, mainly the law of inheritance and the general part, legal history, legal philosophy and economic law, could easily fill several scholars'lives."(『Wissenschaftliche Bibliothek von Prof.Dr.Hermut Coing』より 1992)
