Superficies

(from Latin superficies, “surface”), in the law of certain bourgeois states of Western Europe, a special real right to the structures and plantings on a plot of land owned by another. The superficies first emerged in Roman law, in which it was considered to be a variant of the jus in re aliena. In contrast to a lease contract, it had a perpetual and hereditary character and could be alienated without the consent of the owner of the land.

The Essays by Bacon, Sir Francis View in context What it really most resembles, different as its superficies may look, is the career of those early mediaeval religious artists, who, precisely because their souls swarmed with heavenly visions, passed their fifty or sixty years in tranquil, systematic industry, seemingly with no thoughts beyond it.
