Excerpt from English Law and the Renaissance: The Rede Lecture for 1901, With Some Notes
I remember, and that age of the Renaissance (as you call it) in which (so you say) I lived. But there is one matter, one science (for, such we accounted it) of which they seem to have said little or nothing; and it happens to be a matter, a science, in which I used to take some interest and which I endeavoured to teach. You have not, I hope, forgotten that I was not only an English judge, but, what is more, a reader in English law.'
Six years ago a great master of history, whose untimely death we are deploring, worked the establishment of the Rede lectures into the picture that he drew for us of The Early Renaissance in England. He brought Rede's name into contact with the names of Fisher and More. That, no doubt, is the right environment, and this pious founder's care for the humanities, for logic and for philosophy natural and moral was a memorable sign of the times.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This fascinating book reveals the Renaissance era's surprising impact on English law, a subject often confined to medieval chronicles. The author's fresh perspective challenges traditional views, demonstrating that, contrary to popular belief, English law was not isolated from the revolutionary changes sweeping across Europe during this time of rediscovery and rebirth. Drawing parallels between the legal transformations in England and those witnessed in continental powerhouses like Germany and France, the book explores the influence of humanistic scholars, religious reformers, and political leaders on the shaping of English legal doctrines and institutions. By tracing the evolution of legal thought and practice through the lens of the Renaissance, this book offers a nuanced understanding of the dynamic interplay between law and broader cultural, intellectual, and social forces that shaped English society.
