Download or read book Lord and Vassal Classic Reprint written by Arthur Guy Terry and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-23 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lord and Vassal The aim of this series is to provide some facts of British history not usually given in elementary schoolbooks, together with some broad outlines of the European history of which British history and our own to an extent form a part. When this larger background is sketched in, the great events of American history are seen in their true relation and assume a new significance. The historic sense is enriched when such movements as the Crusades or the Renaissance are exhibited in their wider aspects as reaching our shores, even though remotely, like the tides from afar. The first two books of the series consist of simple stories of all time drawn from ancient history. The later volumes deal each with a definite period. British history receives a large share of Space, because of its close relationship to our own, but the narrative pauses from time to time to tell of what was happening elsewhere, especially where the course of events across the Channel, influenced or was influenced by what was happening in Britain.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Southern Review, Vol. 3: February and May, 1829 Moreover, if the vassal know that any one is plotting against his lord's estate, or his life, or intends to commit an assault on him, or to make him prisoner, it is his duty to inform his lord of it as soon as possible; which if he fail to do, either through fraud, or ill-will, or negligence, he shall lose his fee. So if he debauch his lord's daughter, or his daughter-ia-law, or his sister while she lives under his roof, and is still in her maiden tresses, as it is expressed, ' he ought to forfeit his feud, of which he were in that case unworthy. So if he commit an assault on his lord, or attack the village where he resides, or in any place whatever, lay impious hands upon his person, or do him any other serious injury or outrage, or make an attempt on his life by poison or the sword, or in any other manner.

Download or read book The Influence of the Feudal System on the Formation of Political Character written by Francis Henry Jeune and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-01-17 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Influence of the Feudal System on the Formation of Political Character: The Stanhope Prize Essay for 1863 The leading fact of the feudal system was the tenure of land on certain conditions existing mutually between the lord and the vassal. Tenure somewhat similar, and even on the terms of military service, had existed in the Roman colonies, and indeed in a more perfect form among the tribes of Scythia. But the resident feudal lord owning the land around his castle, which was cultivated by vassals who paid him with their service, represented an historical period and a class new to the history of the world. The absence of domestic slavery would in itself have been sufficient to prevent the new world from being a repetition of the old. In modern times the disturbing element has been the lowest class. The upheaval from below is more dangerous than any changes on the surface. But a slave country has no such lowest class. The greatest social and political pro hlems of modern days never rise for solution in it. The whole mass of its people creates an upper, and therefore to a certain extent an equal class. Such a class must either govern or be governed as a mass. If it is found in a nation which is centralised in a city, it forms the plebs of Rome or the demos of Athens; if it becomes a nation and not an imperial city, it must submit to a Caesar. For the modern world, for nations which were nations from the beginning, ancient freedom was an impossibility. Not so however ancient ty ranny. And feudalism was the cause which saved the modern world from ancient tyranny. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Copyright and Creativity written by Andreas Rahmatian and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2011-10-01 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fresh, innovative, thought provoking look at the development of copyright law as it pertains to creativity and one that will give even the most experienced reader fresh insight into this tangled area of law. The author s language ability (German, English, French) and interdisciplinary background (law and music) combine to enable him to add significant analytical depth to the subject. A must read in a time when our creative industries are being called upon to help re-build our shattered economy. Charlotte Waelde, University of Exeter, UK Professor Rahmatian is perhaps uniquely placed to offer a complete rethinking of the nature and function of copyright. Working with original materials in original languages, he spans the continental and common law traditions in a breathtaking synthesis of the varied justifications and uses (or misuses) of the concept of creativity as property. Paul J. Heald, University of Georgia, US Copyright and Creativity discusses the making of property out of creative works through the legal mechanism of copyright. It shows the manner in which the law translates a great variety of expressions of the human mind into its normative system and transforms them into the property right of copyright or droit d auteur. This timely book examines the proprietary features of copyright, the inherent limitations of its powers, and its justification and relationship to the non-proprietary realm of the public domain. The final parts of the book deal with the propertisation/commodification of human authors themselves through their works as alienable objects of property, the well-known Romantic author critique as a sophisticated justification of that commodification, and at an international level, neo-feudal and neo-colonial developments as a result of this process. This detailed study will appeal to undergraduate and postgraduate students, legal sociologists, and specialists in copyright, property theory, or legal theory and political philosophy with particular interest in property theory. Practitioners within bodies involved in legal policy, organisations concerned with law reform, European institutions, and international organisations will also find much to interest them in this book.
