Beskrivning
Pollock and Maitland's classic The History of English Law before the time of Edward I is perhaps unique amongst late Victorian historical works in remaining the fundamental text on its subject a hundred years later. The current volume gathers leading legal historians to celebrate Maitland's achievement, to analyse his methods, to assess his legacy, and to suggest new directions for research into the history of English law before the reign of Edward I.

John Hudson's book is recommended as an introductory text on English law and dispute resolution up to the early thirteenth century. It is an entirely accessible account which nonetheless assimilates wider perceptions. Continuity and Change 14:2 1999. No one has matched the scale of Maitland's achievement, nor is it likely that anyone will. These papers demonstrate that he set an agenda which is still valid for modern scholars; this fine volume serves both as a tribute to him and as a demonstration of the continuing strength and vitality of medieval legal history.
