This book was released on 2008-10-14 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sir Julius Caesar was the servant of Elizabeth I, James I and Charles I, serving as Judge of the High Court of Admiralty, Master of Requests, Chancellor of the Exchequer, Master of the Rolls and Privy Councillor. He also sat in the later Elizabethan parliaments and all but one in James' reign. Throughout his long and active career, Caesar preserved hundreds of volumes of his papers. They are largely in the custody of the British Museum and the text of this edition has been taken from BM Lansdowne MS 125. At the end of the sixteenth century English civilians were pressed to defend themselves and their courts against the judicial monopoly which the common lawyers were asserting. While this has often been regarded as a problem of conflicting legal systems and jurisprudential ideologies, it is apparent from Sir Julius Caesar's work that the questions were far more pragmatic than ideological.

Download or read book Bench and Bureaucracy written by Lamar M Hill and published by Lutterworth Press. This book was released on 1988 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The late Elizabethan and early Jacobean periods witnessed the emergence of a transitional figure in the crown's service, a person who was not yet a bureaucrat in the modern sense but who nonetheless acted with a considerable degree of independence from the crown. Sir Julius Caesar was an exemplar of this new kind of officer of state, and his career assumes even greater interest because he was also the most prominent civil lawyer of his generation. Hill examines the career of Caesar over half a century, observing the inner workings of patronage, the day-to-day problems of royal service, the quarrels between rival crown servants, the conflicts between common law and civil courts, and, more personally, the way in which an ambitious man could build a dynasty for his sons. Caesar occupied such judicial positions as Judge of the Admiralty, Master of Requests, Master in Chancery, and Master of the Rolls. He also served in administrative positions as Chancellor of the Exchequer and as Privy Councillor. Through him, Hill reveals these institutions at some of their most critical points in history: Admiralty under the stress of the privateering war against Spain; requests when that hapless court was not only subject to prohibitions, but saw its very existence threatened; and the Exchequer in the course of its fiscal crisis that culminated in the abortive negotiations over Salisbury's Great Contract in 1510.

Download or read book The Experience of Authority in Early Modern England written by Adam Fox and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 1996-08-16 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection is concerned with the articulation, mediation and reception of authority; the preoccupations and aspirations of both governors and governed in early modern England. It explores the nature of authority and the cultural and social experiences of all social groups, especially insubordinates. These essays probe in depth the ways in which young people responded to adults, women to men, workers to masters, and the 'common sort' to their 'betters'. Early modern people were not passive receptacles of principles of authority as communicated in, for example, sermons, statutes and legal process. They actively contributed to the process of government, thereby exposing its strengths, weaknesses and ambiguities. In discussing these issues the contributors provide fresh points of entry to a period of significant cultural and socio-economic change.

Download or read book The Law of Proof in Early Modern Equity written by Michael R. T. Macnair and published by Duncker & Humblot. This book was released on 2013-06-21 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is a systematic study of the rules of proof in English Courts of Equity between the later sixteenth and the early eighteenth century. In this period the proof practices of the Courts of Equity were controversial, as contemporary lawyers saw them as linked to the Civil Law, and some perceived a threat to the Common Law tradition. The reality of this linkage and threat has continued to be controversial among historians. In addition, this period saw the early stages of the development of the Common Law of Evidence, which in modern law is a striking divergence from Civil Law systems. The origins of the law of evidence have traditionally been linked to the need for judges to control the jury, but this view has been subject to several recent critiques. The Courts of Equity did not generally use jury trial. This study considers Equity proof rules in their relationships to contemporary Civil and Canon Law proof conceptions, medieval Common Law rules governing proof of facts, and early Common Law evidence rules. It concludes that Equity courts operated a variant of civilian proof concepts, and mediated an influence of these concepts on the origins of the Common Law of Evidence. These findings cast a new light on the debates on these origins, and on the relationship between the Common Law and Civil Law traditions in early modern England.
