  • Student Days at the Inns of Court
    STUDENT DAYS AT THE INNS OF COURT.* Fortescue tells us that when King John fixed the Court of Common Pleas at Westminster, the professors of the municipal law who heretofore had been scattered about the kingdom formed themselves into an aggregate body "wholly addicted to the study of the law." This body, having been excluded from Oxford and Cambridge where the civil and canon laws alone were taught, found it necessary to establish a university of its own. This it did by purchasing at various times certain houses between the City of Westminster, where the King's courts were held, and the City of London, where they could obtain their provisions. The nearest of these institutions to the City of London was the Temple. Passing through Ludgate, one came to the bridge over the Fleet Brook and continued down Fleet Street a short distance to Temple Bar where were the Middle, Inner and Outer Temples. The grounds of the Temples reached to the bank of the Thames and the barges of royalty were not infrequently seen drawn up to the landing, when kings and queens would honor the Inns with their presence at some of the elaborate revels. For at Westminster was also the Royal Palace and the Abbey, and the Thames was an easy highway from the market houses and busi- ness offices of London to the royal city of Westminster. Passage on land was a far different matter and at first only the clergy dared risk living beyond the gates, and then only in strongly-walled dwellings. St.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Abstract of Thesis This thesis examines the birth of secondary education for Jews in England, focusing on the middle classes as defined in the text. This study explores various types of secondary education that are categorised under one of two generic terms - Jewish secondary education or secondary education for Jews. The former describes institutions, offered by individual Jews, which provided a blend of religious and/or secular education. The latter focuses on non-Jewish schools which accepted Jews (and some which did not but were, nevertheless, attended by Jews). Whilst this work emphasises London and its environs, other areas of Jewish residence, both major and minor, are also investigated.

EDMUND PLOWDEN' MASTER TREASURER OF THE MIDDLE TEMPLE (1561-1570) RICHARD O'SULLIVAN D ENUO SURREXIT DOMUS: the Latin inscription high on the outside wall of this stately building announces and records the fact that in the year 1949, under the hand of our Royal Treasurer, Elizabeth the Queen, the Hall of the Middle Temple rose again and became once more the centre of our professional life and aspiration. To those who early in the war had seen the destruction of these walls and the shattering of the screen and the disappearance of the Minstrels' Gallery; and to those who saw the timbers of the roof ablaze upon a certain -midnight in March 1944, the restoration of Domus must seem something of a miracle. All these things naturally link our thought with the work and the memory of Edmund Plowden who, in the reign of an earlier Queen Elizabeth, devoted his years as Treasurer and as Master of the House to the building of this noble Hall.

The four Inns of Court-Lincoln's Inn, Gray's Inn, the Middle Tem- ple and the Inner Temple-may well be called one single legal univer- sity composed of four relatively independent colleges. In their long and illustrious history these Inns have discharged important func- tions in the domains of legal education and professional discipline. As the depository of splendid professional traditions which date back to the Middle Ages, they were for a long time the guardian as well as the gateway to the higher English Bar.

    The Middle Templar The Honourable Society of the Middle Temple Issue 52 Michaelmas 2012 Middle Temple Officers 2012 Introduction Treasurer The Rt Hon The Lord Clarke of Stone-cum-Ebony After a year in post as Under Treasurer, it strikes me that two of the key qualities that Deputy Treasurer characterise Middle Temple are its open- Christopher Symons QC mindedness and its adaptability. This issue of The Middle Templar demonstrates these Deputy Treasurer Elect qualities in abundance: in 2012, the Library The Rt Hon The Lord Judge, hosted a Victorian banquet; Hall became a Lord Chief Justice theatre in the round; and Fountain Court was transformed into a Belgian Cycling Lent Reader Paradise. Like other ancient organisations – and indeed the profession Marilynne Morgan CB we represent – we will survive and thrive if we are able to adapt to face new challenges, and we have certainly shown this year that we Autumn Reader can metamorphose with the requirements of the day. Michael Crystal QC The Inn's willingness to adapt has shown itself of late not only by the Director of transformation of its physical space, but also by its ability to be self- Middle Temple Advocacy critical and open to new ways of thinking. The current review of our Derek Wood CBE QC governance, with its proposals to sharpen our focus and put greater emphasis on our core purposes, effective decision-making and Master of the Archive planning for the future, provides a good example of this. Michael Ashe QC Another prompt for serious reflection has been the sweeping review Masters of the Garden of legal education and training, currently being carried out by the legal regulators of England and Wales.

Templeman: Temple Church, Temple Inn, and Templeman FORUM TEMPLE CHURCH, TEMPLE INN, AND TEMPLEMAN* The Right Honourable Lord Templemant The origin of the English common law lies in the fact, which persists at the present day, that the English are incapable of learning a foreign language. Contrary to popular belief, the English have been conquered on three occasions. They were conquered by the Romans who intro- duced Roman law; but, as the English never learned to speak Latin, they never became proficient in Roman law. Next, the English were con- quered by the Normans who introduced the continental civil law; but, as the English never learned to speak French, they never became proficient in the civil law. Finally, the English were conquered by the Americans; but, as the English never learned to speak the language of the United States, they have been unable to understand either the Bill of Rights or the Restatement. So the English were driven to invent their own law.
