本文為臺灣法界耆宿陳世榮先生的生涯記述，從現存傳主的相關資料以及法界耆宿的口述歷史中探究陳世榮一生的經歷，大致可以分為幾個階段，（1）陳世榮生長於日治時期的臺灣中部雲林斗南的生長環境探討（2）陳世榮在臺灣南下到臺南就讀中學、北上到臺北就讀臺北高校以及渡海到日本仙台就讀東北帝國大學法文學部的學習經歷（3）遭逢二二八事變的經歷（4）歷任法曹的實務經驗。陳世榮既是司法實務界資深的前輩，歷任檢察官、法官乃至大法官，任職大法官期間尤以撰寫數量龐大的不同意見書著名，渡過了波瀾萬丈的傳奇一生。也在票據法、強制執行法方面有專著行世，著作等身，其一生是臺灣戰後第一代法律人的縮影，對於臺灣司法改革的記憶傳承，具有重要的意義。
