Laws, Lawyers and Texts: Studies in Medieval Legal History in Honour of Paul Brand de Susanne Jenks

Laws, Lawyers and Texts: Studies in Medieval Legal History in Honour of Paul Brand: Medieval Law and Its Practice, cartea 13

Susanne Jenks, Jonathan Rose, Christopher Whittick
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 21 iun 2012
The essays in this volume in honour of Paul Brand, Senior Research Fellow of All Souls College, Oxford, match his career and interests in the world of legal history as well as medieval social and economic history and textual studies. The topics explored include the Angevin reforms, legal literature, the legal profession and judiciary, land law, the relation between the crown and the Jews, the interaction of the Common Law with Canon and Civil Law, as well as procedural and testamentary procedures, the management of both ecclesiastical and lay estates and the afterlife of medieval learning. Like Brand’s own work, all the essays are grounded on detailed studies of primary sources. The result is a high quality scholarly book that will be of interest and use to medieval scholars, students and non-specialists with wide-ranging and varied interests.
Contributors include Sir John H. Baker*, David Carpenter, David Crook, Charles Donahue, Jr, Barbara Harvey, Richard H. Helmholz, John Hudson, Paul Hyams, David J. Ibbetson, Susanne Jenks, Janet S. Loengard, Alexandra Nicol, Bruce R. O'Brien, Robert C. Palmer, Sandra Raban, Jonathan Rose, Henry Summerson and Sarah Tullis.

Recenzii

"...In Anerkennung seiner großen Verdienste um die anglophone Rechtsgeschichte haben seine Freunde, Kollegen und Schüler die vorliegende Festschrift verfasst. Sie enthält außer einer einfühlsamen Würdigung [...] insgesamt 16 eindringliche Studien [...] Eine Bibliographie der zahlreichen weiterführenden Arbeiten des Geehrten und ein umfangreicher Index schließen das mit Illustrationen und einem Brustbild Brands geschmückte vielseitige Werk benutzerfreundlich ab und zugleich auf."
Gerhard Köbler, Innsbrück, February 2014 (http://www.koeblergerhard.de/ZIER-HP/ZIER-HP-04-2014/LawsLawyersandTexts.htm)
"This volume is both a worthy tribute to the person it honours, Professor Paul Brand, formerly of All Souls, Oxford, and recently visiting Professor
in the University of Michigan Law School, and a significant contribution in its own right to the areas of research made possible by Brand’s scholarship. [...] There is much here for readers interested in the history of specific actions in the English common law [...] This book deserves a wider readership than the specialist nature of its subject matter will no doubt allow. This is to compliment the editors and contributors for appositely paying tribute to their dedicatee; on the other hand, such rich scholarship deserves to read by all."
Jason Taliadoros, (School of Law, Deakin University), Parergon, Vol. 30, 2, 2013, pp. 202-204
"...This festschrift is a richly-deserved tribute to Brand's continuing collegiality and influence. [...] Taken as a whole, this collection not only stands as a testament to the influence of Paul Brand himself on his friends, colleagues, and students, but as a testament to the high quality of scholarly
production among current historians of medieval English law. [...] all demonstrate the kind of meticulous scholarship and accessible presentation for which Brand is justifiably well known. [...] In the final analysis, this is not only a welcome addition to the body of work on English law and procedure, it is also a fitting tribute to one of the most productive and significant members of that community. Those interested in the topics of the articles themselves will find much to value in them; those curious about the state of English legal history today will find it well represented here."
Linda E. Mitchell (University of Missouri--Kansas City), The Medieval Review 13.09.46
"...einem sauber bearbeiteten umfangreichen Index...die hohe Konsistenz der Einzelbeiträge untereinander...Alle Beiträge beziehen sich ganz explizit auf das zentrale Arbeitsgebiet des Jubilars: Recht und Rechtspflege im England des »langen« 13. Jahrhunderts....Damit ist schon ein weiterer Schwerpunkt angesprochen, der die meisten der versammelten Beiträge durchzieht: der ständig wiederkehrende und wohltuende Bezug zur Quellenkunde und Quellenkritik...Diese Festschrift stellt einen facettenreichen und doch thematisch konsistenten Beitrag zur englischen Rechtsgeschichte des hohen und späten Mittelalters dar, mit der die Forschungsinteressen des Jubilars aufgegriffen und überzeugend weitergeführt werden."
Hiram Kümper (Universität Bielefeld), Francia-Recensio 2013/3 | Mittelalter - Moyen Âge (500-1500)
"...The focus of the volume is predominantly on the Common Law and the English legal system, reflecting Brand’s expert knowledge and interpretation of medieval law and legal practice, and it would have been easy to locate the essays purely within this comfortable domain. One of the key strengths of this book, however, is that many of the contributions range more broadly, examining overlaps between other legal traditions and jurisdictions..."
Anthony Musson (Bracton Centre for Legal History Research, University of Exeter), Edinburgh Law Review. Volume 17, Page 268-269 DOI 10.3366/elr.2013.0159, ISSN 1364-9809, Available Online May 2013
