Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Commentaries on the Laws of England of Sir William Blackstone, Vol. 1 In the preparation of this Edition of Sir William Blackstone's Commentaries, the same rule has been followed as in the first revision of the Work by the present Editor. He has altered the text, where the text required or seemed to require alteration; but he has in no case omitted anything which could usefully be retained. He may have preserved much which is of antiquarian interest only; but, if so, this will, he hopes, be esteemed an error in the right direction. He can repeat confidently the statement he made in reference to his first attempt to adapt the Commentaries to the present state of the Law - that no trouble or labour has been wanting on his part to fulfil properly the responsible duty he has undertaken.

Download or read book Commentaries on the Laws of England, Volume 2 written by William Blackstone and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2015-07-14 with total page 568 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sir William Blackstone's Commentaries on the Laws of England (1765-1769) stands as the first great effort to reduce the English common law to a unified and rational system. Blackstone demonstrated that the English law as a system of justice was comparable to Roman law and the civil law of the Continent. Clearly and elegantly written, the work achieved immediate renown and exerted a powerful influence on legal education in England and in America which was to last into the late nineteenth century. The book is regarded not only as a legal classic but as a literary masterpiece. Previously available only in an expensive hardcover set, Commentaries on the Laws of England is published here in four separate volumes, each one affordably priced in a paperback edition. These works are facsimiles of the eighteenth-century first edition and are undistorted by later interpolations. Each volume deals with a particular field of law and carries with it an introduction by a leading contemporary scholar. Introducing this second volume, Of the Rights of Things, A. W. Brian Simpson discusses the history of Blackstone's theory of various aspects of property rights—real property, feudalism, estates, titles, personal property, and contracts—and the work of his predecessors.

Book Synopsis William Blackstone by : Wilfrid Prest
Download or read book William Blackstone written by Wilfrid Prest and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2008-10-16 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lawyer, judge, politician, poet, teacher, and architect, William Blackstone was a major figure in eighteenth century public life. Over his varied and brilliant career he made profound contributions to English politics, law, education, and culture through involvements in legal practice, Parliament, and the University of Oxford. Throughout he also remained engaged in his society's literary and spiritual life. Despite the breadth and influence of his work, Blackstone the man remains little known and poorly understood, the lack of engagement with his public and private life standing in stark contrast to the scale of his influence, particularly on the development and teaching of the law. Blackstone's 'Commentaries on the Laws of England' remains the most celebrated and influential text in the Anglo-American common-law tradition. This great book has inevitably overshadowed its author, while the dispersal of his personal and professional papers further complicates the task of understanding the man behind the work. The lack of a thorough account of Blackstone's life has fuelled controversy surrounding his intellectual background and political views. Was he the deeply reactionary conservative painted by Bentham, or rather a committed reformer and early champion of human rights? The present biography makes full use of a considerable body of new evidence that has emerged in recent years to shed light on the life, work, and times of this neglected figure in English and American history. Exploring Blackstone's family upbringing and private life, his political activities and ideology, his religious outlook, and championing of the enlightenment, this book weaves together the threads of an extraordinary mind and career.
