Book The Constitutional History of England

Download or read book The Constitutional History of England written by Frederic William Maitland and published by The Lawbook Exchange, Ltd.. This book was released on 2001 with total page 616 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published: Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1908. xxviii, 547 pp. Although Maitland never intended to publish these lectures, they have long been regarded as one of the best introductions to the English Constitution. Delivered in the winter of 1887 and spring of 1888, and edited and published in 1908 by one of Maitland's students, Herbert A.L. Fisher, they cover the period from 1066 to the end of the nineteenth century. Rather than a narrative historical format, they focus on describing the work of the constitution during five distinct moments in English history: 1307, 1509, 1625, 1702 and 1887. They provide an entry to some of the major concepts he later expounded in his seminal work written with Sir Frederick Pollock, The History of English Law. Widely considered the father of modern legal history, FREDERIC WILLIAM MAITLAND 1850-1906] was an English jurist and historian best known for The History of English Law Before the Time of Edward I (1895), written with Sir Frederick Pollock. He was educated at Eton and Cambridge and studied at Lincoln's Inn, London. Maitland was called to the bar in1876 and practiced until 1884, when he became a reader in English law (1884) and professor (1888) at Cambridge. He founded the Selden Society in 1887. Hailed for his original outlook on history, his works had a profound influence on legal scholarship and remain important today.

Book The Constitutional History of England

Download or read book The Constitutional History of England written by Frederic William Maitland and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1920-03-01 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Constitutional history should, to my mind, be a history not of parties but of institutions, not of struggles but of results ...' F. W. Maitland's remarkable course of lectures provides the basic framework of English constitutional history in a brief, but original, scholarly and very readable form. His method is to take five crucial periods and to present in each a panoramic view of the processes of law and government; his attention is always fixed on the constitution as a growing fabric, as something devised and employed by live human beings. And in this work, as in all he subsequently wrote, Maitland shows a rare combination of high speculative power with exact knowledge of detail.

Book A Constitutional and Legal History of Medieval England

Download or read book A Constitutional and Legal History of Medieval England written by Bryce Dale Lyon and published by W. W. Norton. This book was released on 1980 with total page 669 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding our system of laws requires a knowledge of the past, in particular the roots of a legal tradition that took hold in medieval England. This landmark volume is an authoritative study of the inspirational and legal history of England, spanning the period of Richard III on Bosworth Field in 1485. In writing this book, Bryce Lyon has produced a work whose breadth of scholarship is unique among studies of the period. Each of its six sections includes chapters on local and central government and the law, as well as on such topics as feudalism, taxation, church-state relations, the Magna Carta, and parliament. With a modern's cognizance of the impact of bureaucracy in shaping government and law, Professor Lyon places special emphasis on the importance of administrative developments. He also demonstrates that many of medieval England's institutions and legal procedures are the forerunners of both modern English and American legal and governmental institutions, pointing out, for example, the close connection between medieval royal prerogative and modern presidential executive privilege, and the similarities between the procedures and privileges of the medieval parliament and the American Congress. The new edition incorporates the results of the last two decades of medieval scholarship and includes completely new bibliographies for each section, as well as a new discussion of the period 1399-1485, which takes into account the latest interpretations of Lancastrian and Yorkist history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Constitutional History of England The subject of modem Local Government is such a complex one that in a short Constitutional History, such as this is, it is impossible to deal with it adequately. I have thought it better therefore to omit altogether a separate account of it. Besides, there are several easily accessible books dealing with such matters as Poor Law administration, County Councils and County Courts. My thanks are due to Mr. Armstrong of Queen's College, Oxford, for his advice and help, and to Miss Burrows of St. Hilda's Hall, Oxford, who has kindly read through the manuscript for me. A list of "Books of Reference" has been added to this edition, and also a short Appendix, dealing with two phases of Local Government, Poor Relief, and Municipal Self-government, hitherto only referred to incidentally.
