Description

Explore the complex history of property rights and legal battles in seventeenth-century England. During this era, owning property was a requirement for having a vested interest in maintaining law, order, and social harmony. This book examines how people worked to establish the ownership of things through the lens of disputed wills. Using a wealth of surviving evidence from the Prerogative Court of Canterbury, this work provides a look into the probate jurisdiction used by wealthy English property owners and those with modest quantities of assets. It offers a detailed study of how legal disputes over inheritance shaped the social and legal landscape of the time. For students of history, law, and social sciences, this text provides a deep look into the legal mechanisms of early modern England.
