  • Conversations with Professor Sir John Hamilton Baker Part 3: Published Works by Lesley Dingle1 and Daniel Bates2 Date: 31 March 2017
    Conversations with Professor Sir John Hamilton Baker Part 3: Published works by Lesley Dingle1 and Daniel Bates2 Date: 31 March 2017 This is the third interview with the twenty-fifth personality for the Eminent Scholars Archive. Professor Sir John Baker is Emeritus Downing Professor of the Laws of England at the University of Cambridge. The interview was recorded, and the audio version is available on this website. Questions in the interviews are sequentially numbered for use in a database of citations to personalities mentioned across the Eminent Scholars Archive. Interviewer: Lesley Dingle, her questions are in bold type. Professor Baker’s answers are in normal type. Comments added by LD, [in italics]. Footnotes added by LD. 178. Professor Baker, we now come to the point where we can discuss your scholarly works and the research that you have undertaken over the last half a century to produce them. To say that you have been very productive and that your output has been impressive would be to understate your contribution to scholarly legal history. Your CV lists 38 books, 123 chapters in books, 183 articles and notes, 12 pamphlets, 35 book reviews and 97 invited lectures. Also, remembering that you have always had a full academic life of lecturing, administration and activity in learned societies puts these achievements even more clearly into perspective. It would have been impossible for me to have read more than a small percentage of this material and, consequently, I hope you will forgive me for having been very selective in the books and the papers that I have looked at in detail.

  • DISSERTATION-Submission Reformatted
    The Dilemma of Obedience: Persecution, Dissimulation, and Memory in Early Modern England, 1553-1603 By Robert Lee Harkins A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Ethan Shagan, Chair Professor Jonathan Sheehan Professor David Bates Fall 2013 © Robert Lee Harkins 2013 All Rights Reserved 1 Abstract The Dilemma of Obedience: Persecution, Dissimulation, and Memory in Early Modern England, 1553-1603 by Robert Lee Harkins Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Berkeley Professor Ethan Shagan, Chair This study examines the problem of religious and political obedience in early modern England. Drawing upon extensive manuscript research, it focuses on the reign of Mary I (1553-1558), when the official return to Roman Catholicism was accompanied by the prosecution of Protestants for heresy, and the reign of Elizabeth I (1558-1603), when the state religion again shifted to Protestantism. I argue that the cognitive dissonance created by these seesaw changes of official doctrine necessitated a society in which religious mutability became standard operating procedure. For most early modern men and women it was impossible to navigate between the competing and contradictory dictates of Tudor religion and politics without conforming, dissimulating, or changing important points of conscience and belief. Although early modern theologians and polemicists widely declared religious conformists to be shameless apostates, when we examine specific cases in context it becomes apparent that most individuals found ways to positively rationalize and justify their respective actions. This fraught history continued to have long-term effects on England’s religious, political, and intellectual culture.

H. BAKER DOI:10.1093/acprof:oso/9780199245185.003.0003 Abstract and Keywords This chapter considers how far it is possible for the legal historian to penetrate beyond the law reports to uncover the layer of assumptions lurking below the surface. It distinguishes two different kinds of legal assumptions off the record. First are those general propositions of law, good sense, and basic morality, and those usages in association to everyday dealings, guiding people in their everyday lives. Second is the detailed, scholarly, professional learning which is not shared by the public at large. The chapter also discusses conveyancing and plea rolls, offering limited assistance. It shows the changes in the early-modern period, including the common usage and learning. Keywords: common usage, common learning, morality, conveyancing, plea rolls In the first two lectures I pointed out some of the pitfalls in the way of historians or Page 1 of 27 PRINTED FROM OXFORD SCHOLARSHIP ONLINE (www.oxfordscholarship.com).

"UNDERSTANDING, AUTHORITY, AND WILL": SIR EDWARD COKE AND THE ELIZABETHAN ORIGINS OF JUDICIAL REVIEW ALLEN DILLARD BOYER * Bacon and Shakespeare: what they were to philosophy and litera ture, Coke was to the common law. • J.H. Baker I. INTRODUCTION Of all important jurisprudents, Sir Edward Coke is the most infu- riatingly conventional. Despite the drama which often attended his career—his cross-examination of Sir Walter Raleigh, his role in uncov- ering the Gunpowder Plot, his bitter rivalry with Sir Francis Bacon and his explosive face-to-face confrontations with King James I—Coke's work presents a studied calm.' Coke explains rather than critiques. He describes and justifies existing legal rules rather than working out how the law provides rules for making rules.

  • Notes on the Life of Sir John Baker of Sissinghurst, Kent
    Archaeologia Cantiana Vol. 38 1926 NOTES ON THE LIFE OF SIR, JOHN BAKER OF SISSINGHURST, KENT. COMPILED BY THE REV. F. V. BAKER. SIB JOHN BAKER, Chancellor of the Exchequer under Henry VIII., Edward VI., Mary, and Elizabeth, was the son of Richard Baker of Cranbrook, and grandson of Thomas Baker. He was born at Cranbrook about 1488, as he gives his age as 62 or thereabouts in 1550. He and his two brothers and three sisters are all mentioned in the will of his grandfather, made on 3 February 1493 (P.C.C., 16, Home). His grandmother, Mistress Benet Baker, lived until 1509 (will at'Canterbury). His father, Richard Baker, died on 9 August 1504, when John would be about 16. In his will he leaves " to John my son a niaser and flat piece of silver on his coming to the age of xxiui years, and after him to Thomas my son. To my. son James my greatest brasse pot." He leaves 20 marks to the marriage of his daughters, and the rest of his goods to the guiding of "Johanne my wyfe." Then follow these words: " My executors to pay to John my sonne yerely until he come at the age of 24 years to find him to scole as well in recompense of the lands in Stapul- her'st by my father assigned to him and of my bequest to fynde him to his lernyng in Court." These words are noteworthy, for they imply that his father already had the intention of entering him at one of the Inns of Court.
