Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Superstition and Force: Essays on the Wager of Law the Wager of Battle the Ordeal the Torture The history of jurisprudence is the history of civiliza tion. The labors of the lawgiver embody not only the manners and customs of his time, but also its innermost thoughts and beliefs, laid bare for our examination with a frankness that admits of no concealment. These afford the surest outlines for a trustworthy picture of the past, of which the details are supplied by the records of the chronicler. It is from these sources that I have attempted, in the present work, a brief investigation into the group of laws and customs through which our forefathers sought to dis cover hidden truth when disputed between man and man. Not only do these throw light upon the progress of human development from primitive savagism to civilized enlightenment, but they reveal to us some of the strangest mysteries of the human mind.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Superstition and Force: Essays on the Wager of Law the Wager of Battle the Ordeal Torture Apart from the exact sciences, there is no subject which more fully repays the student than the history of jurisprudence. To the reflecting mind few popular quotations are so essentially false, or reveal so narrow a view of life as the often cited lines - "How small, of all that human hearts endure, That part which kings or laws can cause or cure!" Since the origin of society, each unit of our race has struggled on in his allotted path, through joys and griefs, fashioned, for the most part, by the invisible network of habits, customs, and statutes, which surround him on every side, and silently shape his daily actions. Thus the history of jurisprudence becomes the history of the life of man, and the society of distant ages is more distinctly presented to us in the crabbed sentences of codes than in the flowing rhetoric of the historian. Slender as may be the respect with which we of to-day sometimes regard rotatory assemblymen and partisan judges, still are they none the less noteworthy personages. The parts are more important than the actors, and centuries hence it will be to our statute books and reports that the curious student will resort to find out what manner of men were the restless and energetic race which found self-government a harder task than the founding of a gigantic empire. The law-giver and the law-dispenser are the custodians of all that we hold dear on earth. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
