Works
Maurer's most important contribution to history is a series of books on the early institutions of the Germans. These are:
- Einleitung zur Geschichte der Mark-, Hof-, Dorf-, und Stadtverfassung und der offentlichen Gewalt (Munich, 1854)
- Geschichte der Markenverfassung in Deutschland (Erlangen, 1856)
- Geschichte der Fronhöfe, der Bauernhöfe, und der Hofverfassung in Deutschland (Erlangen, 1862–1863)
- Geschichte der Dorfverfassung in Deutschland (Erlangen, 1865–1866)
- Geschichte der Städteverfassung in Deutschland (Erlangen, 1869–1875)
These works are still important authorities for the early history of the Germans. Among other works are:
- Stadt- und Landrechtsbuchs Ruprechts von Freysing, ein Beitrag zur Geschichte des Schwabenspiegels (Stuttgart, 1839)
- Über die Freipflige (plegium liberate), und die Entstehung der grossen und kleinen Jury in England (Munich, 1848)
- Uber die deutsche Reichsterritorial- und Rechtsgeschichte (1830)

“...A shadow now occasionally crossed my simple, sanguine, and life enjoying mind, a notion that I was never really going to accomplish those powerful literary works which would blow a noble trumpet to social generosity and noblesse oblige before the world. What? should I find myself always planning and never achieving ... a richly complicated and yet firmly unified novel?”
—Sarah N. Cleghorn (1876–1959)
