A propos de cet article

A Landmark Work on Grand Juries. A Landmark Work on a Fundamental English Right [Somers, John Somers, Baron (1651-1716), Attributed]. The Security of English-Mens Lives, Or the Trust, Power, And Duty of the Grand Jurys of England. Explained According to the Fundamentals of the English Government, And the Declarations of the Same Made in Parliament by Many Statutes. Published for the Prevention of Popish Designs Against the Lives of Many Protestant Lords and Commoners, Who Stand Firm to the Religion and Ancient Government of England. London: Printed for Benj. Alsop, 1682. 168 pp. Octavo (6" x 3-3/4"; 15.2 x 9.5 cm). Recent period-style quarter calf over marbled boards, lettering piece and gilt-edged raised bands to spine, endpapers renewed. Light toning to interior, light soiling and a few creases to title page, which has a ruled border. Head of text block trimmed with some loss to page numbers and rule at head of title page. A handsome copy. $1,500. * Second edition. First published in 1681, this influential essay defined a hearing before grand jury of peers as a fundamental English right. An assertion of the priority of the law over the English Crown, it was written to support the right of a grand jury to reject the bill of indictment against Anthony Ashley-Cooper, First Earl of Shaftesbury [1621-1683] issued by Charles II (a pro-Catholic monarch). Shaftesbury's charges were ultimately dropped. Published anonymously, this work is attributed in most sources to Somers. A barrister of the Middle Temple and an important Whig statesman, he was Lord Chancellor of England during the reigns of William and Mary and Queen Anne and presided over the framing of the Bill of Rights (1689).
