    The Late Tudor Legal World and the Present

    de Sir John Baker ...
    Series series The Hamlyn Lectures
    Comparative legal history is generally understood to involve the comparison of legal systems in different countries. This is an experiment in a different kind of comparison. The legal world of the first Elizabethans is separated from that of today by nearly half a millennium. But the past is not a wholly different country. The common law is still, in an organic sense, the same common law as it was ... Leer más

    A Transformation of Governance and Law

    de Robert C. Palmer ...

    Robert Palmer’s pathbreaking study shows how the Black Death triggered massive changes in both governance and law in fourteenth-century England, establishing the mechanisms by which the law adapted to social needs for centuries thereafter.

    de Christopher W. Brooks ...

    Substantive Law and Procedure in English Legal History

    Edición de Matthew Dyson, David Ibbetson ...

To that end, the authors use a wide range of sources, from court records to merchants' diaries and lawyers' ... Leer más

  • The Reinvention of Magna Carta 1216–1616

    de John Baker ...
    Series series Cambridge Studies in English Legal History
    This new account of the influence of Magna Carta on the development of English public law is based largely on unpublished manuscripts. The story was discontinuous. Between the fourteenth and sixteenth centuries the charter was practically a spent force. Late-medieval law lectures gave no hint of its later importance, and even in the 1550s a commentary on Magna Carta by William Fleetwood was still ... Leer más

  • English Common Law in the Age of Mansfield

    de James Oldham ...

    In the eighteenth century, the English common law courts laid the foundation that continues to support present-day Anglo-American law.

In this abridgment of his two-volume book, The Mansfield Manuscripts and the Growth of English Law in the Eighteenth Century, James ... Leer más

  • The English Parliaments of Henry VII 1485-1504

    de P.R. Cavill ...
    Series series Oxford Historical Monographs
    P.R. Cavill offers a major reinterpretation of early Tudor constitutional history. In the grand 'Whig' tradition, the parliaments of Henry VII were a disappointing retreat from the onward march towards parliamentary democracy. The king was at best indifferent and at worst hostile to parliament; its meetings were cowed and quiescent, subservient to the royal will. Yet little research has tested ... Leer más
