Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, a riveting historical examination of English law and governance from 1066 to 1688, was written as a series of dialogues between two legal scholars. The author positions the English legal system within historical context which allows for the observation of its evolution and development over the course of six centuries. The author traces the origins of English law in the Norman Conquest and follows its trajectory through the Plantagenet, Tudor, and Stuart periods. Key legal documents including Magna Charta and the Bill of Rights are examined in depth for their significance to the development of law. The evolution of Parliament, from its roots in the medieval period through to the 17th century, and its relationship with the monarchy is a central theme that is given consistent attention throughout the text. The book's insights highlight the idea that English law and constitutional principles are the product of a continual historical process that has spanned centuries, and remain foundational principles on which the United Kingdom's system of government is based today.
