Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Book of Parliament I have made some excursions into the domain of history. That, of course, was inevitable in writing about Parliament, whose roots lie so deep in the mighty past. But I have avoided as much as possible the broad beaten tracks of history; and have turned down unfrequented and little-trodden byways in search of fresh and apt anecdotes to enliven and illustrate and confirm my descriptions of the present work-a-day aspects of Parlia ment. My chief purpose has been to make the book entertaining and instructive to the general reader - to the millions of men and women of all sorts and condi tions in this world-wide Empire of which Parliament is the supreme ruler. But I trust the book will also be found useful to members of Parliament, lawyers, journalists, students of Constitutional history - to all.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of Parliament The idea of writing a short history of Parliament was first suggested to me by Mr. F. S. Pulling, of Exeter, who at one time I thought would have shared in the work. Circumstances, however, prevented this, and the book ultimately assumed a somewhat different form from that projected at first. The object with which it was written was the hope of imparting a certain amount of life to the dry bones which are strewn in the way of the constitutional student, and of combining instruction with a certain amount of amusement. Whether the effort has been successful or not the reader must judge for himself. I must here take the opportunity to render my acknowledgments to Mr. F. York Powell, Mr. C. H. Carmichael, and Mr. A. B. Beaven for the kind assistance which they have rendered me - especially the latter, who undertook the laborious task of revising the whole of the MS. dealing with the period after 1660. I am indebted to the kindness of Sir George Sitwell for a very early illustration of parliamentary corruption - an isolated evidence but sufficiently pregnant of meaning.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Law and Custom of the Constitution, Vol. 1: Parliament I have sometimes found it difficult to write on the topics to which the remaining and larger part of the books is devoted, with sufficient fullness to convey a definite im pression of their place in the general scheme of Government, yet not 'on such a scale as would destroy the proportions of my plan or would suggest that I am giving information which is more properly sought for in special treatises. Hence perhaps the reader may ask why, on some of these subjects, I have said so much; or why, having said so much, I have said no more. If I have induced him to seek for fuller knowledge I shall not have written in vain. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Parliament written by Courtenay Ilbert and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-16 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Parliament: Its History, Constitution and Practice The word parliament originally meant a In its Latin form it is applied by monastic statutes of the thirteenth century to the talk held by monks in their Cloisters after dinner, talk which the statutes condemn as unedifying. A little later on the term was used to describe solemn conferences such as that held in 1245 between Louis IX of France and Pope Innocent IV. When our Henry III summoned a council or conference of great men to discuss grievances he was said by a contemporary chronicler to hold a parlia ment. The word struck root in England, and was soon applied regularly to the national assemblies which were summoned from time to time by Henry's great successor, Edward I, and which took something like definite shape in what was afterwards called the model parliament of 1295. The word, as we have seen, signified at first the talk itself, the conference held, not the persons holding it.

The first was for a seaport town in Ireland, having a constituency of but 250, who were so equally divided that my opponent claimed a preponderance of three only at the poll. On petition, I challenged his eligibility on the ground that he had been born and bred in Maryland, and had not obtained letters of naturalization.

This book was released on 2015-07-05 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the 1900 Parliament, Vol. 1 The author trusts that in this volume his readers will find a faithful narration of the events recorded: where, however, matters of opinion are concerned, he makes no claim to impartiality of judgement. Such a pretension, hazardous enough in the mouth of any writer of contemporary history, would be grotesque in the case of a militant politician. One word is necessary with regard to the speeches of which summaries are given in the "oblique oration." The author has found no task more difficult than that of imparting a living interest to utterances delivered under conditions that are past and gone.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Evolution of Parliament A student who is mainly versed in the history Of the sixteenth century must, however, if he trespasses on the middle ages, be ready to face prosecution with all the rigour of medieval lore; and this volume cannot escape criticism of its lack of technical knowledge in many details. My excuse for the trespass is that, being engaged on a study of the Tudor constitution, I could not understand it without seeking answers to preliminary problems which had not been solved; and historical curiosity combined with an academic interest in politics to expand an introduction to the constitutional history of the Tudor period into an essay on the place of parliament in the past, the present, and the future of the English state. The last two chapters at least of this volume are not history; but I doubt the logic and the expedience of the contention that it 13 only the business of those who have not studied the past to discuss the present or the future.

Download or read book Short History of Parliament, 1295-1642 (Classic Reprint) written by Faith Thompson and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Short History of Parliament, 1295-1642 This little book is not a history of parliament in the usual sense. No attempt is made to discuss obscure points of origins nor to do justice to certain thorny questions upon which reputable historians still disagree. It does include the main facts to be found in standard constitutional texts, and some of the more technical data, figures, and dates are supplied in notes and appendices for those who want them. It is addressed to students of college age, and may serve as collateral reading for college courses in English history or literature. It is hoped that it may also have some value for a wider reading public, including those interested in parliamentary government wherever it may be found in the world today. The purpose is fivefold: (1) to make available the valuable results of recent research scattered through learned monographs, essays, and review articles; (2) to give something of the flavor and points of view of the eras concerned by some quotation from the contemporary sources; (3) to bridge the division, usually too sharply made, between "medieval" and "modern"; (4) to bring the "men of law" into the picture - the legal historian who illuminates the subject by a special approach and the man of law in parliament who made many a practical as well as theoretical contribution; (5) last but not least, to bring parliaments - even those of "medieval" times - and their members to life, to dramatize, as it were, their personnel and activities.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Getting Into Parliament and After This book was written during the Parliamentary recess of 1911, but owing to the writer's illness its publication was unavoidably delayed. Chapters XVI and XXI have been added, but no substantial change has been made in the original text of the other chapters. My readers will kindly observe that I have not followed the course of party politics in the House of Commons beyond my retirement in 1883, except so far as was necessary to complete a character sketch of the leaders on the stage at that time, or of their probable successors.

Download or read book A Short History written by Andrew Bisset and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-09-27 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History: English Parliament There was a time - or rather there were times, for Thucydides, as well as later writers, records the fact - when the business of a robber, by land or sea, was reckoned an honourable calling; when, in the words of a writer older than Thucydides, 'the tabernacles of robbers prospered.' The head robber or pirate captain was usually a man of 'royal strain, ' or 'royal siege.' It had been from the beginning of time, at least from the earliest records or traditions that have come to us, the received opinion that the only worshipful person was the man of rapine and blood, and that quiet industry was the mark of a coward and slave. In short, the robber or pirate was a gentleman - a gentleman rover, and his captain a sea-king - the merchant a pedlar, the labourer a serf or villain. It is only in this sense that we can understand the meaning of a popular writer, who describes a man for whom has been claimed descent from a Scandinavian pirate, as a man 'sprung from an ancient and illustrious race.'
