BEZIO University ofRichmond, USA LIBRARY UNIVERSITY OF RICHMOND VIRGINIA 23173 ASHGATE Introduction Of Parliaments and Kings: The Origins of Monarchy and the Sovereign-Subject Compact in the English Middle Ages (to 1400) The purpose of this study is to examine the intersection between early modem political thought, the history that produced the late Tudor and early Stuart monarchies, and the critical interrogation of both taking place on the public theatrical stage. The plays I examine here are those which rely on chronicle histories for their source materials; are set in England, Scotland, or Wales; focus primarily on governance and sovereignty; and whose interest in history is didactic and actively political.

  • Plantagenet Times to Sheffield Ca. 1800
    Chapter 17 Plantagenet times to Sheffield ca. 1800 600 YEARS FROM THE PLANT NAME’S ORIGINS TO A PLANT’S YARD PLANT FAMILY October 1998. One of a series of Chapters by Dr. John S. Plant, Keele University, England, ST5 5BG. parse evidence for 13th century ‘origins’ to the Plant name yields hints of a Plantagenet influ- S ence. Powerful political controversies surrounding Plantagenet-related words may have led to our current need for caution when considering the contemporaneity of various evolving meanings of plant. Trade and war may have influenced both the advent of the Plant name in the north west of England and the Plants’ subsequent advances across the north Midlands, in their progress towards the clearer light that 17th century records bring. The later sections of this Chapter outline the progress of a particular line of Plants from 17th century Cheshire through north Derbyshire to 18th century Sheffield. Their apparent descent inter- sects an environment that includes some key industrial developments. 17.1 A smattering of medieval Plant records ¢¡¤£¦¥¨§ © ©©© !"#¤$&%'#()%'!*+, - ,!*.0/1#(,21 #(34).15!"687:9;<.)).)¨#= ().@?BAC5!¢2D%¢FEG!H, I%'!*.JE4%KL MONP %¢3) ¦ P,#0Q$R#TS¦U¤5J%'!*3 -2;%¢3),!¢ -"#= > R !*%'# -.4¢?VW!B$RX #(34).Y5)!8EG# -.!¢ I).)ZEL!¢[$!¢!* ,"\X5!*5) !").]68# 5 > ^ `_G# -.)-5) ! !* a$"5)!¢ !5!Z+a=b/c2Y<a#¦$d/Y)21=e#(3)).@?fA"5!W#5!¢ * $"5)<%-5 5)g)%'!c.)</c)-5!*.ihbj¨(3) !DS¦U+?S¦kI f5).l EL#(3)nm(©op/c+2J+n !*%'# -.)g).q$Rg#( 5!H#(35Ors<)%'#()54 !8%'#(¢ P #(3)4.]tu#(<.)/1!*sv3),C# -5]#=¨68# =e#(K]).OAC5!7T-5@?

  • From the King's Will to the Law of the Land

Forests as a legal term, however, did not solely mean wooded lands. Forests covered many terrains, including pasture or meadow. Forest law evolved from regulations that changed with the king’s will to a bureaucratic system that became law of the land. That shift came slowly through the reigns of King John (r. 1199-1216) and Henry III (r. 1216-1272). While discord dominated John’s relationship with his barons, once his son Henry reached majority he responded favorably to critiques of his reign by the nobles. The forest cases in the Curia Regis Rolls, litigation records from the English central court, highlight the complex legal negotiations between the king, the elites, and those who operated in the forests. Nobles who had access to the king’s court confirmed or maintained their rights to land and its resources through these suits.

  • K Historii Parlamentní Demokracie a Parlamentarismu
    K historii parlamentní demokracie a parlamentarismu Typickým znakem a projevem zastupitelské demokracie je parlamentarismus. Jde o parlamentní demokracii, v moderní době se většinou opírající o demokratický systém nebo demokratickou metodu uskutečňování státní moci. Základním principem parlamentarismu je rozdělení zákonodárných a výkonných orgánů. Většinou však jde o součinnost tří orgánů, když další odpovědnou institucí je hlava státu, představovaná prezidentem nebo panovníkem (monarchou). Zákonodárnou moc v systémech parlamentní demokracie vykonává parlament, představovaný sborem zástupců těch příslušníků státního společenství, kteří mají právo volit své zástupce do zastupitelského orgánu státní moci. Státní systémy parlamentní demokracie se v soudobých podmínkách vyznačují třemi modelovými podobami jako: 1) parlamentní forma vlády (kde je nejvyšším orgánem uplatňování státní moci zastupitelský sbor, parlament, sněmovna), 2) prezidentská forma vlády (kde je nejvyšším orgánem hlava státu) a 3) vláda parlamentu (kde je nejvyšším orgánem vláda). Důležitým faktorem je samozřejmě i vertikální dělba moci mezi soustavou nejvyšších státních orgánů (hlavou státu, parlamentem i vládou) a soustavou místní správy, do níž lze zahrnout i systém správy zemské, krajské, v provinciích, vojvodstvích, župách, départementech, kantonech atp. Charakteristickým znakem tzv. kontinentálního systému je rozdělení místních správních orgánů na orgány státní správy a orgány státní samosprávy (poznámka L.P. – v České republice jde však v daných poměrech o systém velice nefunkční vzhledem k nerespektování principů historických tradic, regionální identity, účinné decentralizace pravomocí, racionálního rozdělení kompetencí, spádovosti území, subsidiarity, efektivnosti nakládání s veřejnými financemi i s daněmi poplatníků). Angloamerický typ místní správy neobsahuje rozdělení na státní správu a samosprávu. Nejprve si připomeňme tzv. Althing (z islandského slova znamenajícího „všeobecný sněm“ či „všeobecné národní shromáždění“), který je nejstarším parlamentem v Evropě.

  • The Evolution of Parliament
    THE EVOLUTION OF PARLIAMENT BY A. F. POLLARD, M.A., LITT.D. SECOND EDITION, REVISED First published in 1920 Second edition 1926 PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION THISvolulne is the outcome of studies which were turned Ln the direction of constitutional history partly by my appointment to a chair with that title at University College, London, in 1903, and more specifically by my election in 1908 to a fellowship at All Souls' College, Oxford, on con- dltion of pursuing researches suggested by the late F. W. Maitland. The first sketch of this essay took the form of six public lectures delivered in London in Lent Term 1913, which were expanded into fifteen lectures given on the Goldwin Smith foundation at Cornell University and else- where in the United States in the following spring. The manuscript was completed, save for some notes and refer- ences, in August 1915, when the increasing tension of the war put a stop to remoter studies. During these seventeen years the history of the English parliament has attracted the labour of several learned historians, and particular acknowledgement is due to Pro- fessor C. H. McIlwain's High Court of Parliament, which, coming into my hands at the end of 1912, confirmed the trend of my investigations and supplied me with fresh ideas and illustrations. Another American book, Professor Bald- win's King's Council in the Middle Ages, published in 1914, threw valuable light on a collateral subject. But the starting-point for all of us has been Maitland's introduction to the Menzoranda de Parliarnento, which he edited for the Rolls Series in 1893, the most original and suggestive essay v vi PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION vii that has ever been written on the medieval English par- held at University Collcge during the last six years liament.
