The History Of The English Constitution

""The History of the English Constitution"" is a comprehensive account of the development of the English political system from its origins in Anglo-Saxon times to the 19th century. Written by Rudolph Gneist, a German jurist and constitutional historian, the book explores the evolution of English law, government, and society, tracing the influences of Roman law, feudalism, and the Norman Conquest on the development of English institutions. Gneist examines the role of the monarchy, parliament, and the judiciary in shaping the English Constitution, and analyzes the impact of key events such as the Magna Carta, the Glorious Revolution, and the Industrial Revolution. The book also explores the relationship between the English Constitution and the constitutions of other countries, and examines the challenges and controversies that have arisen over the centuries, including debates over the powers of the monarch, the rights of the people, and the limits of government authority. With its detailed analysis and historical perspective, ""The History of the English Constitution"" is an essential resource for anyone interested in the development of constitutional law and political institutions.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
