Book excerpt: Why the History of English Law is Not Written is a thought-provoking lecture by Frederic William Maitland, one of the most prominent legal historians of the late 19th century.

Download or read book A History of English Law Vol 9 Classic Reprint written by William Searle Holdsworth and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02 with total page 490 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of English Law, Vol. 9 These nine volumes contain a history of the sources and general development of English law down to 1700; and a history of the judicial system, and of very many of the principles and rules of the English common law, down to modern times. It is, therefore, not quite a complete history. There still remains to be related the history of the sources and general development of English law during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries; the history of substantive rules of equity, which became the definite system which we know to-day during those centuries the history of some parts of the common law - notably mercan tile law, maritime law, and the law of evidence - which then assumed their modern form; and the history of certain other branches of law - such as ecclesiastical law, prize law, and international law - which fall within the sphere of the civilian's practice. To complete the history as it ought to be completed will be a long task but I hope to be able to accomplish at least some part of it in the next few years; and I am the more encouraged to begin this final portion of my task by the manner in which these volumes have been received.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of English Law: From the Earliest Times to the End of the Year 1919 That this is a sufficiently ambitious attempt, no one can be better aware than the author. Though he has made no state ment which he has not verified from original evidence, he has, naturally, availed himself to the full of the work of previous writers for the earlier part of his task. But, from the end of the sixteenth century, he has sailed over an almost uncharted sea and his responsibility is great. He can only plead that he has kept a careful look-out, and that he has striven faithfully to sail the ship in the. Main current, without attempting to enter the bays and inlets, which to have explored would either have prolonged the voyage to an undue length, or have neglected the essential for the picturesque but less important.

This six volumes edition covers the women's suffrage movement from 1848 to 1922. Originally envisioned as a modest publication that would take only four months to write, it evolved into a work of more than 5700 pages written over a period of 41 years and was completed in 1922, long after the deaths of its visionary authors and editors, Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony. However, realizing that the project was unlikely to make a profit, Anthony had already bought the rights from the other authors. As a sole owner, she published the books herself and donated many copies to libraries and people of influence. Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815–1902) was an American suffragist, social activist, abolitionist, and leading figure of the early women's rights movement. Susan B. Anthony (1820–1906) was an American suffragist, social reformer and women's rights activist. Harriot Stanton Blatch (1856-1940) was a suffragist and daughter of Elizabeth Stanton. Matilda Gage (1826–1898) was a suffragist, a Native American rights activist and an abolitionist. Ida H. Harper (1851–1931) was a prominent figure in the United States women's suffrage movement.
