This book was released on 2018-01-29 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Outline Sketch of English Constitutional History It is very likely that the task which I have undertaken in this little book is an impossible one. Even to sketch so long a history in so few words seems hopeless, and I am sure that I have left out many things which other students of the English constitution will think should be found here. I have tried to keep in mind in writing chiefly the desire to show how modern liberty came to be what it is and what foundations our institutions have in the past history of the race. I am indebted to the Editors for permission to use portions of an article which appeared in the American Historical Review for July, 1915.

This book was released on 2015-07-14 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Origin of the English Constitution It is hardly necessary to point out to Americans that the history of the origin of the English Constitu tion is our history as much as it is the history of living Englishmen. Our institutional past until near the close of the seventeenth century is to be found in England alone. This f act the history of the seven teenth century shows clearly enough, f or if one will stu dy the constitutional innovations attempted or advocated during the period of Puritan rule, when the constitutional life of England abandoned for a moment all connexion with the monarchy, he will see how natural it seemed to the nation to turn to a sur prising number of the political expedients which in our government seem departures from the English system. When Englishmen at home broke with their own institutional precedents, and began to make a republic, it was to things of this kind that their minds were naturally led, as if they had been trained to them.

This book was released on 2018-03-20 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Making of the English Constitution, 449-1485 The emphasis throughout has been upon evolution rather than upon description. The purpose has been to furnish a logically satisfying account of the genesis of each institution as far as present knowledge permits - to show exactly how it has become what it is. This has made it necessary to hold steadfastly to a given line of argument and to shun many alluring, and perhaps profitable, bypaths; while, on the other hand, it has sometimes entailed an apparent interruption of the theme in order to develop a line of thought needed for logical completeness. More time has been spent upon origins than upon descriptions of finished products or upon definitions, in the belief that students should obtain much from detailed and special works which would clog a general account of institutional development.

Download or read book The English Constitution written by Jesse Macy and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-28 with total page 572 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The English Constitution: A Commentary on Its Nature and Growth In the introductory chapter, the statement is made that one object of the book is to enable American readers to gain a better knowledge of the American government. It may be an advantage to some readers for me to add that Part I. Was prepared specifically in order that Americans might be able to read with greater profit Bryce's The American Common wealth. To fully appreciate that great work, the American needs to be well grounded in English politics. He must know the present Constitution in its theory and in its practice. Part II. Is designed to answer certain questions often raised in an attempt to understand the present English Constitution. Americans should never forget that, until the founding of the colonies, English history is our history. Nor should they fail to remember that for a hundred years after, there was a per sistent effort to establish in England a government according to what would now be called the American model, - that is, a government based upon an artificial constitution whereby the Legislature and the Executive should be balanced one against the other. It was not until the coming in of the House of Hanover, in 1715, that English constitution-making became of a distinctly different character.

Download or read book The rise and progress of the English constitution written by Edward Shepherd Creasy and published by London : R. Bentley. This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rise and Progress of the English Constitution In 1848 I prepared and published a small pamphlet, called "The d104-Book of the Constitution," in which were arranged the texts of Magna Carta, the Petition of Right, and the Bill of Rights, with historical comments, and with remarks on the People's Charter and other political topics of that year. Independently of its politics, that pamphlet has been found useful as an historical compilation; but the extent to which its latter pages were occupied with political discussions, made me unwilling either to employ it myself or to see it employed by others in education. I do not wish to disavow any of the opinions which I expressed in it, but a teacher of History has no right to avail himself of the position in which he stands towards his pupils, for the purpose of training up broods of young Tories, Whigs, or Radicals, according to his own party predilections. I therefore intended to prepare an edition of that little treatise, which should deal only with the Past, and in which the spirit of party pamphlet should be entirely got rid of.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The English Constitution It gives me much pleasure to see my friend M. Boutmy's work offered to English readers in a trustworthy form. I have not thought it necessary to examine the translation with minute care, but I have seen enough of it to rejoice that the author has been so fortunate in his translator. It is anything but an easy matter to turn good French into good English; in this case the task has been performed with excellent skill and judgment, and with close fidelity to the original. The book seems to me to deserve a welcome in England on two distinct grounds. First, if we take it as a concise view of the development of the English Constitution on the social and economic side, it fills a place that is not to my knowledge exactly filled by any of our own books. And this alone might suffice to recommend it. But another quality may well give it a positive value, not only for students, but for masters in history and political science.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Primer of the English Constitution and Government: Or the Use of Colleges, Schools, and Private Students There are certain inherent difficulties in the composition of a work of the character of the present one, which I think it better to allude to at the outset, so that if it turns out that I have failed to overcome them, I may at least not seem so far disrespectful to my subject and to my readers as to have failed to look them fully in the face. In the first place, the Constitution and Government of England have in a peculiar degree sprung from a long line of historical antecedents, - antecedents, too, which are not so much startling and isolated events as vast groups of circumstances slowly and silently manifesting themselves in orderly and unceasing progression. Not to deal in any manner with these historical antecedents must leave certain parts of the subject wholly unintelligible.
