Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in Constitutional Law: France, England, United States In introducing the book in an English form to readers unable to enjoy the French original, I can confidently recommend it to the attention of students. The work was originally composed for Frenchmen; hence the author occasionally insists upon features in the English Constitution which to Englishmen may appear to be too well known to require notice or explanation. But the fact that the essay is written by a foreigner for foreigners, though it may seem at first sight to limit the utility of the book for: English students, is in reality one of its great recommendations.

Download or read book Constitutional History of France Classic Reprint written by Henry C. Lockwood and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-02 with total page 490 pages. 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.

Download or read book The Constitutions written by Frank Maloy Anderson and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-03 with total page 706 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. 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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The English Constitution Various publications have lately done much to clear up the subject of the origin and early development of political institutions in England. The light thrown by Guizot on one division of the subject has not indeed grown dim. Recent writers have not observed more accurately than did the great historian, but their obser vations have gone further and deeper, a broader view of the whole has been obtained, and a more complete mastery of detail. My aim is to point out to the French reader the chief conclusions which contem porary research has either thrown into higher relief or confirmed by fresh documentary evidence.

Download or read book The Essentials of a Written Constitution Classic Reprint written by Harry Pratt Judson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-10-08 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Essentials of a Written Constitution Aristocracy and democracy, in the political sense, it will be noticed, are merely relative terms. There is no exact point at which a community ceases to be aristocratic and becomes democratic, and it is quite obvious that a community may be aristocratic as respects a second and at the same time democratic in relation to a third. France under the Orleans monarchy vested supreme political power in some voters, while under the second empire there were More than one of the states of our Union at the outset had suffrage laws so restrictive in character that they were decidedly aristocratic as compared with their present status, although undoubtedly democratic in comparison even with France under Louis Philippe. An organized political community, independent of external control, is commonly called a state. There is, however, often a confusion of thought arising from the more or less unconscious use of the term state in two different senses. These two applications of the term should be sharply distinguished, and the distinction kept always in mind. In the larger sense the state includes the whole community living in a given terri tory and subject to the political authority of its government. In the limited sense the state includes only that portion of the community which has political authority over the whole, and whose agent in the exercise of that authority is the government. The state in the larger sense we may, for convenience, call the social state. The other may be called the political state. The members of the social state are all subject to law. The political state creates law and enforces it. Political power belongs to the political state, to be sure, for the protection and welfare of the social state. But in the exercise of that power the political state has no legal superior. Its will is law for all. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

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.

The Guillotine I Have been very largely indebted to the work and the personal kindness of friends in the compilation of this edition of Carlyle's French Revolution, particularly, however, to Mr. C.

Moreton Macdonald, of Largie, who has contributed one appendix and revised all my notes; to Miss Eleanor Lodge, who assisted in the verification of the early references; to Mrs. Ellen Salmon, who not only opened the doors of the British Museum to me, but who has also carefully watched over the production of the whole book with the most motherly tenderness; most of all, however, to Professor Lodge, of Edinburgh University, who has contributed the most laborious of the appendices, and pointed out many errors in the notes; and to my Father, whose faultless taste in style, and whose natural literary instinct have made him my wisest critic. I send forth the book with much tremor as to the judgments likely to be passed upon the accents, the spelling, the punctuation and the omissions.

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.
