Riguardo questo articolo

Print on Demand. This book explores the evolution of English Parliament and the relationship between its kings and its subjects over several centuries. The author focuses primarily on the period from the Anglo-Saxon Witenagemot through the reign of Edward I. Throughout the historical analysis offered in this book, the reader gains a more comprehensive understanding of the various forces that influenced the development of English constitutional monarchy. The author contends that the English Parliament was not founded in any particular moment, but rather evolved through longstanding practices. Over time, the practices began to include the summoning of regular assemblies of nobles, clergy, and knights, who were consulted by the king on matters of taxation and policy. Delving into key themes, the author examines how the evolution of English Parliament was influenced by conflicts between kings and barons, the ideas of natural law, and the changing roles of the Church, bureaucracy, and commoners. This book's insights illuminate the complex relationship between the monarchy and its subjects, and demonstrate how the English Parliament emerged as a significant player in shaping the nation's governance. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.
