    1 THE PARLIAMENTARY PRIVILEGE OF FREEDOM FROM ARREST, 1603–1629 Keith A. T. Stapylton UCL Submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2016 Page 2 DECLARATION I, Keith Anthony Thomas Stapylton, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Signed Page 3 ABSTRACT This thesis considers the English parliamentary privilege of freedom from arrest (and other legal processes), 1603-1629. Although it is under-represented in the historiography, the early Stuart Commons cherished this particular privilege as much as they valued freedom of speech. Previously one of the privileges requested from the monarch at the start of a parliament, by the seventeenth century freedom from arrest was increasingly claimed as an ‘ancient’, ‘undoubted’ right that secured the attendance of members, and safeguarded their honour, dignity, property, and ‘necessary’ servants. Uncertainty over the status and operation of the privilege was a major contemporary issue, and this prompted key questions for research. First, did ill definition of the constitutional relationship between the crown and its prerogatives, and parliament and its privileges, lead to tensions, increasingly polemical attitudes, and a questioning of the royal prerogative? Where did sovereignty now lie? Second, was it important to maximise the scope of the privilege, if parliament was to carry out its business properly? Did ad hoc management of individual privilege cases nevertheless have the cumulative effect of enhancing the authority and confidence of the Commons? Third, to what extent was the exploitation or abuse of privilege an unintended consequence of the strengthening of the Commons’ authority in matters of privilege? Such matters are not treated discretely, but are embedded within chapters that follow a thematic, broadly chronological approach.

As the german armorials turned out to demand more time than expected, I felt that my preliminary efforts on this english armorial should be made available, though much of the analysis is still incomplete. Dr. Paul A. Fox, who kindly made his transcription of the Society of Antiquaries manuscript available, is currently working on a series of articles on this armorial, the first of which appeared in 2008. His transcription and the notices in the DBA was the basis of the current draft, which was supplemented and revised by comparison with the manuscripts in College of Arms and the Society of Antiquaries. The the assistance and hospitality of the College of Arms, their archivist Mr. Robert Yorke, and the Society of Antiquaries is gratefully acknowledged. The date of this armorial is uncertain, and avaits further analysis, including an estimation of the extent to which older armorials supplemented contemporary observations. The reader ought not to be surprised of differences in details between Dr.

  • Political Language in the Late Medieval English Parliament
    Version pré-éditoriale – Ne pas citer Jean-Philippe GENET, LAMOP (CNRS-Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne) Political Language in the Late Medieval English Parliament Is there a date of birth for “political language” or “the language of politics”? To this question many answers have been proposed: Maurizio Viroli would suggest starting with Machiavelli in humanist Florence, Jacques Guilhaumou in the Paris of the French Revolution, whereas others might cite fifth-century Athens or the medieval Italian city-states. Nevertheless, we must remember that, from a purely linguistic point of view, there is no such thing as “political language”. Rather there are political uses of language, and even with this reservation in mind, we must not forget that the use of the word “political” is, or ought to be, reserved to societies in which the structures of power can be said to be political. In other words, “political” is better used when dealing with a more-or-less autonomous “city” or with a kingdom in which government does not entirely depend upon personal or feudal relations. In such cases the structures of power are determined by a relationship between a ruling institution (the monarchy, or the magistrates in a city) and a social community, either organized in subgroups with their own set of institutions or, if amorphous, able to actively or passively express their own choices. To put it simply – and with full awareness of the objections it will raise – there can be no political language as such before the twelfth century in Western Europe. There is another requisite for the existence of political language: the communication structure must be that of a public sphere, and texts, images, music and so forth must be able to circulate freely and broadly both within a given society (implying the existence, besides the Latin of the clerics, of vernacular languages which can be written and understood) and between different “national” or “regional” societies.

  • The Medieval Mortimer Family an Outline Lineage
    Ian Mortimer The Medieval Mortimer Family An outline lineage This document lays out the basic genealogies of the various medieval families that bore the Anglo- Norman name ‘de Mortemer’ or its Latin equivalent, ‘de Mortuo Mari’ and the later anglicised variations, such as ‘Mortimer’ and ‘Mortymer’. The prime purpose is to distinguish between the major landowners who appear in the pre-1500 records. It is not an attempt to identify all the significant individuals called ‘Mortimer’; still less is it an attempt to show speculatively how they all might be related. Although it is tempting to say that the medieval Mortimer families all descend from Roger fitz Ralph, lord of Mortemer-sur-Eaulne, who was known after 1054 as Roger de Mortemer, the evidence is not strong enough to prove the matter one way or another. Thus they are each dealt with separately. The arrangement is as follows. The oldest family is dealt with first, in part one, this being the Mortimers of Wigmore. Their genealogy is followed by that of each cadet family, arranged in order of the date at which it branched off from the main line. Next, in part two, the Mortimers of Attleborough appear, with their cadet families, again in order. The Mortimers of Wilsthorpe and their probable branches are dealt with in part three. Some notes on the Mortimers of Coedmore form part four, and on the obscure Mortimer families of Cliffe, Kent, and Cuckfield, Sussex, parts five and six. Finally, there is an appendix dealing with the origin of the family in Scotland. 1a.

    SEYMOUR AND DE LA MARE -217- THE SEYMOUR FAMILY OF HATCH, SOMERSET, AND DE LA MARE FAMILY OF LITTLE HEREFORD by Paul C Reed 1 ABSTRACT This article begins the documentation of the Seymour family — ancestors of Henry VIII’s third wife — after they left Monmouthshire and settled in England. They gradually rose from relative obscurity through a series of advantageous matches to heiresses to become one of the leading families in Wiltshire (even so, it was only through the favour of Henry and his son Edward VI that they finally attained the peerage in the person of the queen’s brother, Edward Seymour, Viscount Beauchamp, Earl of Hertford, Baron Seymour and finally Duke of Somerset). Included with this article is a separate account that begins to chart out the maternal ancestry traced through the de la Mare family of Little Hereford.

Monmouth, in the Marches of Wales, was a man of relatively modest means at the time he married Cecily de Beauchamp, the young widow of Sir Gilbert de Turberville, a prominent Welsh knight. Roger’s ancestors were knights, but lived in a fairly precarious region subject to raids by the native Welsh and frequent summons to military service to maintain the peace. It was then a region ruled by local custom in spite of a concerted effort to extend the king’s law.2 Cecily de Beauchamp’s father John, 2nd Lord Beauchamp of Somerset, was already dead when her first husband died so arrangements for her second marriage would have been in the hands of the king.
