This book was released on 2005 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Explores a fascinating aspect of the early colony's legal system: its denial of the binding force of English law in favor of an original legal system. Although the common law played a role, the colonists used it selectively and combined it with the provisions of the colony's charter, local statutes and scripture. One of the earliest books on the history of American law, this pioneering work was originally published in the series Studies in History, Economics and Public Law edited by the Political Science Faculty of Columbia University.

Download or read book The Common Law in Colonial America written by William E. Nelson and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2008-08-05 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on groundbreaking and overwhelmingly extensive research into local court records, The Common Law in Colonial America proposes a "new beginning" in the study of colonial legal history, as it charts the course of the common law in Early America, to reveal how the models of law that emerged differed drastically from that of the English common law. In this first volume, Nelson explores how the law of the Chesapeake colonies--Virginia and Maryland--differed from the New England colonies--Massachusetts Bay, Connecticut, New Haven, Plymouth, and Rhode Island--and looks at the differences between the colonial legal systems within the two regions, from their initial settlement until approximately 1660.

This book was released on 2024-09-26 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On July 4, 1653, the Nominate or Barebones Parliament convened with a minority of committed radicals (Levellers and religious extremists) and a conservative majority of Cromwell’s allies. During acrimonious debates on law reform, the radicals demanded a condensed law book similar to the one adopted in Colonial Massachusetts. These mostly overlooked events reveal a radical wing of Puritanism determined to found a self-governing state, fully cognizant of the real possibility that England would interdict such attempts by force of arms. This work investigates the motives for such a hazardous undertaking, and the possible influences these events had on the colony’s posterity.

Many of these papers illustrate the impact of new methodologies and new attitudes toward the scope of legal history, encompassing not only traditional doctrinal studies, but also the use of logal sources to explore problems of social control and coercion and to describe more accurately the quality of life among all classes in the Bay Colony.

Download or read book Crime and Punishment in Early Massachusetts, 1620-1692 written by Edwin Powers and published by Boston : Beacon Press. This book was released on 1966 with total page 672 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "When Deborah Wilson walked through the streets of Salem in 1662 'naked as the day she came into the world, ' her intention was to dramatize the 'nakedness' of Puritan religious thinking. She succeeded only in getting herself 'well whipped' and becoming one of the fascinating human illustrations in [this] informing and engrossing study of crime and its punishment in the early days of Colonial Massachusetts. She was indeed fortunate not to have become one of the grimmer statistics of the time--for the Puritans, in their pursuit of 'Godly justice, ' hanged five Quakers on Boston Common. The story of the 'saints' who founded this 'New England Utopia' has often been told. For the first time, here, is the story of the sinners--in all the vivid, sparkling 17th century prose in which the Saints preserved it. It is a particularly important story since the justice they evolved and dispensed in the Plymouth and Bay colonies from 1620 to 1692 profoundly affected many aspects of criminal justice in America. These 'first beginners, ' as they styled themselves, left a lasting imprint on the laws which govern us today ... This scholarly and absorbing study gives the background of the settlement of these two colonies to show the extent of the legal knowledge and experience of the founders. A concise analysis of the legal system they established follows, and then an account of the changes and developments that took place. All aspects of the law--the lawyers, judges, lawmakers, policemen, criminals, courts, jails, and prisons--are fully considered. The forms of punishment and their frequency are examined. The author has compiled valuable tables of the occurrences of different crimes and their penalties. There is also a comprehensive treatment of the relationship of church and state, and of the civil rights and liberties of the colonists ... What makes this work especially useful to the student as well as the general reader are the concluding sections of each chapter. In short historical summaries, the author brings the subject of each chapter up to date. Thus this is history which not only illuminates the past, but also is directly relevant to the problems and concerns of today"--
