Reports of Cases in the Courts of Star Chamber and High Commission (Classic Reprint) by Samuel Rawson Gardiner Pdf

Excerpt from Reports of Cases in the Courts of Star Chamber and High Commission The greater part of the present volume was copied for the late Mr. Bruce, who undertook to edit it. He probably thought, and, if so, the Society will doubtless agree with him, that it might do much to dispel the ignorance which exists on the working of the Courts of Star Chamber and High Commission, if a complete set of reports of cases within a limited period were published. In this way the attention of the student would be drawn from the few State Trials, which necessarily occupy so large a space in our histories, to the ordinary course of business which went on uninterruptedly, except during the vacations. The cases in the Star Chamber reach from Easter Term, 1631, to Trinity Term, 1632; whilst those in the High Commission Court begin in October, 1631, and extend to June, 1632. Of the Star Chamber cases, those given in the pages from the beginning of the volume to page 111, as well as the High Commission cases from page 181 to the end of 269, are taken from Harleian MS. 4130; whilst the remainder of the volume is taken from Rawlinson MS., A128, in the Bodleian Library.

The Star Chamber by John Southerden Burn Pdf

Excerpt from The Star Chamber: Notices of the Court and Its Proceedings; With a Few Additional Notes of the High Commission The Court of Star Chamber and that of the High Commission having for upwards of a century held a most arbitrary and unconstitutional control in England, it has been thought useful to concentrate some of the scattered notices of these Courts and of the variety of the cases entertained. Some account of the Court of High Commission has already been published, the following pages therefore will be devoted to the Star Chamber. Rush worth says, "there is little mention made of the Star Chamber Court, either in reports or treatises of the Law, except now and then, dispersedly in some one or two causes in an age." But there are now in the British Museum, at the Rolls, and in the Bodleian and Cambridge University Libraries, several volumes of Star Chamber cases, from which the following pages have been chiefly compiled, and there are at the Rolls Record Office many hundreds of bundles of proceedings which were for many years entombed at the Chapter house, but are now being arranged and catalogued under the direction of the Master of the Rolls. Five large volumes of Indexes refer to these bundles. One of them is an Index, (from A to H) to suits in the reign of Henry VIII. and the other four to about 43,000 suits in the reign of Elizabeth. The bundles contain bills, answers, interrogatories, depositions, &c., but no decrees. It is doubtless true that in the early days of this Court it served, as Sir Thomas Smith says, "to bridle such stout noblemen and gentlemen who would offer wrong by force to any meaner man, and cannot be content to demand and defend the right by order of law." The early cases thus shew that the business of the Court was chiefly with noblemen, sheriffs, abbots, corporations and persons of the higher classes, and also with rioters and persons using "acts of violence," and taking forcible possession of lands. In course of time, however, the meshes of the net were contracted, and nothing escaped the power of the court, - it fined a nobleman 30,000, and sent three poor fiddlers to the whipping post.

Charles I and the Puritan Upheaval by Allen French Pdf

Originally published in 1955 and based on research of public records and other contemporary sources, this book builds up an excellent picture of England before the Civil War. Through a series of case studies, it examines the type of person who emigrated to New England and their motivation for doing so. The wealth of evidence from original documents is clearly arranged and provides a refreshing reassessment of the period, showing that although religious conviction was a clear motive for emigration, the Puritan were also seeking security from hardships of other kinds.

Outright Assassination by Adel Beshara Pdf

Since the trial and execution of Antun Sa'adeh was held, many complex issues have been raised: Why the secrecy and haste? Was it a fair trial? Was the offence political and, if so, why did the Lebanese State refuse to treat it as such? What did the Khoury regime hope to achieve from the trial? This book answers these and many more questions.

Milton and the English Revolution by Christopher Hill Pdf

In this remarkable book Christopher Hill used the learning gathered in a lifetime's study of seventeenth-century England to carry out a major reassessment of Milton as man, politician, poet, and religious thinker. The result is a Milton very different from most popular representations: instead of a gloomy, sexless "Puritan", we have a dashingly thinker, branded with the contemporary reputation of a libertine.

Fire under the Ashes by John Donoghue Pdf

In Fire under the Ashes, John Donoghue recovers the lasting significance of the radical ideas of the English Revolution, exploring their wider Atlantic history through a case study of Coleman Street Ward, London. Located in the crowded center of seventeenth-century London, Coleman Street Ward was a hotbed of political, social, and religious unrest. There among diverse and contentious groups of puritans a tumultuous republican underground evolved as the political means to a more perfect Protestant Reformation. But while Coleman Street has long been recognized as a crucial location of the English Revolution, its importance to events across the Atlantic has yet to be explored. Prominent merchant revolutionaries from Coleman Street led England’s imperial expansion by investing deeply in the slave trade and projects of colonial conquest. Opposing them were other Coleman Street puritans, who having crossed and re-crossed the ocean as colonists and revolutionaries, circulated new ideas about the liberty of body and soul that they defined against England’s emergent, political economy of empire. These transatlantic radicals promoted social justice as the cornerstone of a republican liberty opposed to both political tyranny and economic slavery—and their efforts, Donoghue argues, provided the ideological foundations for the abolitionist movement that swept the Atlantic more than a century later.
