Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Constitutional History of France The author of this essay has made some attempt briefly to outline the intellectual, social, and political causes which led to the changes in the form of government of France, and at the same time to sketch the salient features of her organic law. Parliamentary governments, like that of Great Britain, and presidential systems, similar to that of the United States, have been compared to the parliamentary Republic of France. Such an extended period of French history has been dealt with that it has only been possible to accord a brief consideration to the many questions of Constitutionalism, which would, under other circumstances, have received a closer analysis than the cursory one which the author has made. However, it was intended to produce a general commentary and criticism, and reference is therefore invited to the Constitutional laws which have been translated and placed in the. appendix of this work, in support of the positions assumed. Although the Constitutional life of France lies within the period treated in this essay, still it is true that as early as the time that immediately followed the Middle Ages, society revived and secured popular franchises from the Crown and the nobles. These historic facts disclose the very germs of Constitutional law. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Constitutions: And Other Select Documents Illustrative of the History of France 1789-1901 The practice of studying documents in connection with the history courses given in American universities, colleges, and high schools has now become so general, and the results attained so satisfactory, that the method no longer requires any defence. With the introduction of the system has come a new kind of manual, the document look. So many excellent books of this description have already appeared that the editor of still another may be reasonably expected to offer an adequate explanation for its publication. Three considerations have induced me to prepare this volume. The first of these is personal and local. For several years past I have made a practice of dividing my class in modern European history into small sections which I could meet once each week around the seminary table. At these meetings we have studied together a considerable part of the documents here included, but the work has been hampered by the lack of a convenient collection of the documents. Fidelity to the interest of my pupils seemed to impose upon me the obligation to remove this difficulty. The second consideration lies in the attractiveness of the documents. After considerable experience in the use of various classes of documents upon European history I have reached the conclusion that students find the modern French documents more attractive than any others. Doubtless the chief reasons for this preference are that modern documents arc more easily comprehended than those of more remote periods and that the style of the French is superior to that of English and German documents. Since documentary study must usually be confined to a small part of the field traversed by a class, I believe that for classes in modern European history the preference of the students may well be allowed to control the selection of the period to be studied. The third consideration is the importance of the field covered. The history of France since the beginning of the revolution surely deserves a volume in English presenting as large a proportion as possible of the important documents. The task of selecting the documents for a book of this description is a difficult one. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The French Constitution Classic Reprint written by Benjamin Flower and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-04 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The French Constitution Although the Table of Contents, and the Introductory Observations to the following Work, will inform the Reader of my design; yet, in order to prevent mistakes, I think it necessary to premise a few prefatory remarks. Since the major part of this work was printed, several of my observations have received additional confirmation, by the proceedings of the House of Commons, during the present session. But there is one thing which requires a little explanation, in order to obviate what may be thought a contradiction. I have in one or two places mentioned "our increasing taxes." The practice of government for fifteen years past, warranted me in using such an expression. At last, after nine years peace, it appears that the people of this country, have the prospect of some trifling diminution of their burdens. The ingenuity, industry, and spirit of our manufacturers and merchants; the measures of government to make the taxes productive; - These, with many accidental and temporary circumstances, have conspired to render our revenue flourishing beyond expectation. But I beg leave to add, that the main principles of this work, are not to be shaken, either by temporary prosperity or adversity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of French Public Law This seamless web of our own legal history unites us inseparably to the history of Western and Southern Europe. Our main interest must naturally center on deciphering the pattern which lies directly before us, - that of the anglo-american law. But in tracing the warp and woof of its structure we are brought inevi tably into a larger field Of vision. The story of Western Continental Law is made up, in the last analysis, of two great movements, racial and intellectual. One is the Germanic migrations, planting a solid growth of Germanic custom everywhere, from Danzig to Sicily, from London to Vienna. The other is the posthumous power of Roman law, forever resisting, struggling, and coalescing with the other. A thousand detailed combinations, of varied types, are developed, and a dozen distinct systems now survive in independence. But the result is that no one of them can be fully understood without surveying and tracing the whole. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The History of France Vol 2 Classic Reprint written by Eyre Evans Crowe and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-11-15 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of France, Vol. 2 It is not always just, however, to condemn a country for its loss of liberty. Representative fi'eedom, that great political result of modern times, was as little the effect of human providence, as the great physical discoveries that have con tributed with it to change the face of civilization. Had not England preserved the boon more by a devoted attachment to old institutions than by any legislative' skill, it is to be feared that not even all our modern ingenuity could have invented a durable constitution. If the French, then, are to be blamed, it is more for fickleness than servility; and even this censure will be rendered lighter by considering the causes that led to the different fate of liberty in the two countries.

Download or read book The Constitutional Instructor written by Daniel Parker and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Constitutional Instructor: For the Use of Schools The most important thing required by way of preface is an acknowledgment of the sources from which the following work has been drawn. From its own nature, as a compilation of particulars from a variety of sources, it seemed almost impossible to give the proper credit in detail, either by quotations or by marginal references. And even if it were practicable, the unavoidable disfiguring of the page is a reasonable objection to that course. The difficulty is farther increased in the present case by the fact that it was convenient for me to use the language of authors with all degrees of variation from an exact transcript of their words to a mere expression of their sentiments in words wholly my own. I have therefore determined on a general acknowledgment in this place of my indebtedness to Blackstone's Commentaries, Paley's Moral Philosophy, Story on the Constitution of the United States, Shurtleff's Governmental Instructor, Parley's Young American, Chipman's Principles of Government, Moulton's Constitutional Guide, Robbins' World Displayed, and in an especial manner to the Madison Papers.

This book was released on 2018-09-10 with total page 568 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Select Charters and Other Illustrations of English Constitutional History: From the Earliest of Times to the Reign of Edward the First I have poinwd out in the introductory chapter my reasonfl for not going further than the reign of Edward I. The later history is rather a history of politics than of polity, and has to be illustrated by a very difl'erent sort of documents. A more consistent supplement or companion to this volume would be a comparative assortment of corresponding Origines of the other constitutions of Europe. This is a branch of study without which the student cannot fully realise either the peculiar characteristics of his own national polity, or the deep and wide basis which it has in common with those of the modern nations of the Continent. To have furnished however in this volume, even the bare texts of the chief constitutional monuments of France, Germany, Spain, Italy, and Scandinavia, would have obliged me to alter the plan altogether; nor could the comparative Constitutional History of Europe be illustrated at all thoroughly on the same scale.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sovereign Council of New France: A Study in Canadian Constitutional History The core of the work consists of the last four chapters, which treat of the organization, procedure, functions, and actual achievements of the Sovereign Council. The ear lier chapters are designed to describe the events which increased or diminished the power of the Council and to acquaint the reader with the personality of the actors. A disproportionate amount of space is given to the two administrations of Frontenac, because during those years the disputes of greatest significance occurred.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Original Illustrations of English Constitutional History I have followed the example of Dr. Stubbs in translating the French passages and adding a glossary of special words. Experience, however, shows that young students need help with the Latin extracts, and I hope that the running abstract of contents at the side of the page may enable any one with a moderate knowledge of the language to handle the Latin without undue difficulty. There is an undoubted benefit even to the ordinary student to be derived from seeing the document in its original form.
