Ajouter au panierFirst edition, second printing; 8vo (17.5 x 12 cm); woodcut title with woodcut arms to verso, woodcut device to last f. of text verso, woodcut initials, head and tailpieces, final blank f. present, MS note in pen to front free endpaper (retained from earlier binding) above partially obscured ownership inscription, annotation in…pen to title upper margin, a little tightly bound, light soiling and occasional minor spotting, S1 and S2 gutter margin reinforced in tape, well-margined; modern half brown morocco, marbled paper boards, contrasting red morocco lettering-piece to spine, later endpapers; [8], 511, [15]pp. The second appearance of this important legal manual on the administration of local justice in Tudor England, which remained the standard authority on the subject well into the modern age. The Eirenarcha (from the Greek for 'justice of peace') deals firstly with the office and duties imposed upon the Justices, from the origins of their authority, which derives directly from the King by letters patent, to their powers to put down riots and force entry, and secondly with the courts of quarter sessions where cases would be heard. Lambard[e] (1536-1601) was called to the bar in 1567 as a member of Lincoln's Inn. He is chiefly remembered for his activities as an antiquarian, publishing the first English county history with his Perambulations of Kent in 1570, and for his Eirenarcha, which drew upon his experiences as a member of the Commission of the Peace for Kent. The detailed list of indictments given in the fourth chapter of book two offers a fascinating insight into the fabric of sixteenth century society, with offences named for 'prophecying', anti-sacramentalism, rape of maid or child (under 10 years age), sodomy 'with man, or beast', prison breaks, and for the 'art of multiplication of gold or silver'. ESTC S108154; Beale T388.

Ajouter au panierFirst Edition. LAMBARDE, William. Archion, or, a Commentary upon the High Courts of Justice in England. London: for Daniel Frere, 1635. 16mo, period-style full dark brown mottled calf, elaborately gilt-decorated spine and covers, raised bands, all edges gilt; pp. (5), 280. $2600.First edition of Lambarde's influential first hist…ory of the King's CourtsÑa desirable copy beautifully bound in period-style elaborately gilt-decorated calf."By 1591 [Lambarde] had completed his greatest achievement in legal history, Archeion, or, A discourse upon the high courts of justice in England, which although it circulated extensively in manuscript, was published by his grandson only in 1635. Here he propounded a vision of political society grounded in historically validated laws and customs. He sought to trace the two essential components of this system of government, the common law and the prerogative, to an equally distant Anglo-Saxon past. As for parliament, Lambarde wrote, 'I see not how I can derive it from any other time, than from that, in which the German or English did set their first foot on this Land, to invade it' (W. Lambarde, Archeion, ed. C. H. McIlwain and P. L. Ward, 1957, 126-7). For him, the establishment of a firm basis for contemporary society could only mean an appeal to the past, and his conclusions were considered valid by those who began, as he did, with a belief in the continuity of institutions which could change their name and structure but not their essential functions. The precise extent of the prerogative and of the common law was a contentious issue, and Lambarde's writings and actions revealed a consistently high opinion of the latter, although not at the expense of the essential function of the former" (ODNB). "Archeion is an able historical summary of the position of the courts of common law, and of those newer courts and councils which had been developing so rapidly in the 16th century. It shows how hazy the relations of all those courts new and old were to each other in the Tudor period" (Holdsworth, 38). HLC I, 1112. Marvin, 444. NYU, 164. Title page skillfully rehinged; text generally clean. Gilt-decorated calf binding fine and beautifulÑan excellent copy of this scarce and influential work.

Ajouter au panierTwo works bound together, small octavo; title, 634, [88] pp.; 94 pp. (Duties of Constables); contemporary limp vellum with faint manuscript lettering to spine. A handsome compendium of two early legal manuals: these early seventeenth-century handbooks of common law were prepared for local magistrates, at the time known as Justic…es of the Peace. The Eirenarcha was written by English magistrate and luminary William Lambard (1536-1601); the work is remarkable for its clarity, easy style and use of pragmatic precedent. The author was a Justice of the Peace for Kent and used his considerable personal experience to produce a common law handbook in comprehensible English free from tortured legalese. "Written in a clear and unaffected style, this manual remained for a long time the standard authority" (ODNB). In seventeenth-century England local magistrates were sourced from landholders and the aristocracy, many of whom were unfamiliar with legal terminology. The Eirenarcha was written for this audience, and the result gives quite an insight into everyday life and law in Elizabethan England (the book was first published in 1581 and remained substantially unchanged through later editions). Witchcraft prohibitions exist alongside modern laws such as those regarding concealed pistols, while a strong anti-Catholic theme is evident throughout. . Title-page discoloured with some loss of the fore-edge, neatly laid down, preliminary leaves thumbed, frayed at corners and generally a bit damped, last few leaves of the second book chipped at corners with seventeenth century manuscript notations; overall good in worn contemporary limp vellum with faint manuscript lettering to spine.

Light toning to interior, slightly heavier in places, brief early annotations to a few leaves, "5D" in later hand to verso of front cover. An appealing copy. $2,000. * The last sixteenth-century editions (and the last to appear in Lambard's lifetime). Lambard, or Lambarde, a barrister and legal historian, was the keeper of records at the Rolls Chapel and the Tower of London. First published in 1581, Eirenarcha is esteemed for its comprehensive and systematic account of the organization of local government under the justices of the peace at the end of the sixteenth century. It was the standard authority for many years and often reprinted. Like many books of its kind, Eirenarcha offers fascinating insights into the society that produced it. This is evident in the detailed indictments for such offenses as murder via witchcraft, raping a child or maid (the age of distinction was ten), hearing a Catholic Mass, practicing usury and operating a bowling alley. First published in 1582, Dueties of Constables is a companion work. English Short-Title Catalogue S102273, S4730. Beale, Bibliography of English Law Books T393, T386. ESTC S102273 & S4730; Beale T393 & T386 (illustrateur).
