Description

Explore the historical evolution of English legal authority with this comprehensive volume from Cambridge University Press. This work serves as the first history of ecclesiastical jurisdiction in England to cover the era leading up to the removal of major subjects inherited from the Middle Ages. The text examines the transition of power as legal responsibilities moved from church courts to royal courts during the mid-nineteenth century. Readers will find a detailed account of how various legal domains, including probate, marriage, and divorce, were handled before their transfer to secular jurisdiction. This book is an essential resource for those studying legal history, as it traces the specific steps and reasons behind these institutional shifts. It covers a wide range of legal topics such as tithes, defamation, and disciplinary prosecutions involving the laity, providing a clear view of how the English legal landscape changed over these three and a half centuries.
