A propos de cet article

ISBN-13: 9781584777182; ISBN-10: 1584777184. "One of the Truly Great Pieces of Historical Literature of all Time" Pollock, Frederick, and Frederic William Maitland. The History of English Law Before the Time of Edward I. Second Edition. Originally published: Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1898. 2 Volumes. xxxviii, 688; xiv, 691 pp. Reprinted 2008, 2014 by The Lawbook Exchange, Ltd. ISBN-13: 9781584777182. Paperback. New. $134.95 * Reprint of the second and best edition. The History of English Law was the first systematic history based on modern historical methods. It addresses the period before the Norman Conquest in 1066, but deals primarily with the creation and establishment of the common law, a process initiated in the reign of Henry II (1154-1189) and concluded in the reign of Edward I (1272-1307). The first volume traces this history. The second volume treats the doctrines of the common law, including tenure, the law of personal condition, status and estate, and the jurisdiction and communities of the land. Gracefully written and enriched with countless references this is an essential book.

He was educated at Trinity College, Cambridge, and admitted to the Bar in 1871. He taught at the University of Oxford from 1883-1903. Widely considered the father of legal history, Frederic William Maitland [1850-1906] was an English jurist and historian best known for this work. He was educated at Eton and Cambridge and studied at Lincoln's Inn, Lon.…
