Simion Barnutiu has fully contributed to the development of Romanian legal education and works such as: Dreptul public al românilor (The public law of Romanians), Iasi, 1867, Dreptul natural privat (Private natural law), Iasi, 1868, Dreptul natural public (Public natural law), Iasi, 1870, and many others still kept under the form of manuscripts by the Library of the Romanian Academy or lithographed courses or parts of them (at the Central Library of the University from Iasi) make up for a rich inheritance that he left to posterity.
