Frederic William Maitland: Selections from His Writings is a curated collection of the works of one of England’s most distinguished legal historians. This volume offers a comprehensive introduction to Maitland’s contributions to the field of English legal history, focusing on his meticulous approach to understanding medieval law and his ability to analyze historical texts with precision and critical insight. His work, marked by a deep commitment to historical context and an aversion to anachronism, challenges readers to view the past through the lens of its own time rather than projecting modern perspectives onto historical events. The book highlights Maitland’s capacity for making complex legal concepts both accessible and engaging, demonstrating his brilliance as a historian who could breathe life into even the driest of legal matters. The selections in this volume not only showcase Maitland’s scholarly rigor but also reflect his unique ability to connect the details of legal history to broader cultural and institutional contexts. His profound impact on the study of English law is evident in his careful editing of primary sources and his collaborative work with fellow historians, such as Frederick Pollock. Throughout the collection, Maitland’s writing remains a vital resource for students and scholars alike, illustrating his unwavering dedication to uncovering historical truth. His approach to history, emphasizing critical thinking and an appreciation for historical nuance, continues to inspire generations of legal historians and intellectuals. This book is an essential resource for anyone interested in the history of English law and its evolution, as well as the methods that define historical scholarship. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press’s mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1960.

Renowned as a great scholar, teacher, and legal historian, Frederic William Maitland (1850-1906) advanced the cause of legal history, opposing the idea that legal history was law and not history, yet believing in the advantage of legal training. He was Downing Professor of Law at Cambridge, helped to found the Selden Society, and himself edited Henry de Bracton's Notebook and four Year Books of Edward II. With Sir Frederick Pollock he wrote the brilliant work that is still a standard, "The History of English Law before the Time of Edward I." He edited "Memoranda de Parliamento," and wrote "Domesday Book and Beyond, Township and Borough," and "Roman Canon Law" as well as many papers on legal history and law. His lectures on "Equity," on "The Forms of Action at Common Law," and on "Constitutional History of England" were published after his death. C. H. S. Fifoot has written this biography of Maitland with care and devotion in a style that is lucid and eloquent. He traces the origin and development of Maitland's works, using them to reveal the man himself and his qualities of mind and spirit. Mr. Fifoot places his subject in the context not only of his age, but also of his family and friends. He has drawn on Maitland's letters as well as unpublished letters of his friends, private papers, manuscripts, and recollections, much of which would otherwise have perished. The many quotations of Maitland he has incorporated are delightful and revealing.

Hobbes. By: Leslie Stephen, and Frederic William Maitland (28 May 1850 - 19 December 1906) was an English historian and lawyer who
Thomas Hobbes ( 5 April 1588 - 4 December 1679), in some older texts Thomas Hobbes of Malmesbury, was an English philosopher who is considered one of the founders of modern political philosophy.Hobbes is best known for his 1651 book Leviathan, which established the social contract theory that has served as the foundation for most later Western political philosophy. In addition to political philosophy, Hobbes also contributed to a diverse array of other fields, including history, geometry, the physics of gases, theology, ethics, and general philosophy. Though on rational grounds a champion of absolutism for the sovereign, Hobbes also developed some of the fundamentals of European liberal thought: the right of the individual; the natural equality of all men; the artificial character of the political order (which led to the later distinction between civil society and the state); the view that all legitimate political power must be "representative" and based on the consent of the people; and a liberal interpretation of law which leaves people free to do whatever the law does not explicitly forbid.His understanding of humans as being matter and motion, obeying the same physical laws as other matter and motion, remains influential; and his account of human nature as self-interested cooperation, and of political communities as being based upon a "social contract" remains one of the major topics of political philosophy. Frederic William Maitland, FBA (28 May 1850 - 19 December 1906) was an English historian and lawyer who is generally regarded as the modern father of English legal history.Maitland was born at 53 Guilford Street, London, the only son of John Gorham Maitland (1818-1863) and of Emma, daughter of John Frederic Daniell. His grandfather was Samuel Roffey Maitland (1792-1866). He was educated at Eton and Trinity College, Cambridge, being bracketed at the head of the moral sciences tripos of 1872, and winning the Whewell scholarship for international law.He was a Cambridge Apostle and President of the Cambridge Union.......... Sir Leslie Stephen KCB (28 November 1832 - 22 February 1904) was an English author, critic, historian, biographer, and mountaineer, and father of Virginia Woolf and Vanessa Bell.Stephen was born at Kensington Gore in London, and son of Sir James Stephen and Lady Jane Catherine (n e Venn) Stephen. His father was Colonial Undersecretary of State and a noted abolitionist. He was the fourth of five children, his siblings including James Fitzjames Stephen (1829-1894) and Caroline Emilia Stephen (1834-1909). His family had belonged to the Clapham Sect, the early 19th century group of mainly evangelical Christian social reformers. At his father's house he saw a good deal of the Macaulays, James Spedding, Sir Henry Taylor and Nassau Senior. After studying at Eton College, King's College London and Trinity Hall, Cambridge, where he graduated B.A. (20th wrangler) in 1854 and M.A. in 1857, Stephen remained for several years a fellow and tutor of his college. He recounted some of his experiences in a chapter in his Life of Fawcett as well as in some less formal Sketches from Cambridge: By a Don (1865). These sketches were reprinted from the Pall Mall Gazette, to the proprietor of which, George Murray Smith, he had been introduced by his brother. MARRIAGE: The family connections included that of William Makepeace Thackeray. His brother, Fitzjames had been a friend of Thackeray's and assisted in the disposition of his estate when he died in 1863. His sister Caroline met Thackeray's daughters, Anny (1837-1919) and Minny (Harriet Marian Thackeray 1840-1875) when they were mutual guests of Julia Margaret Cameron (of whom, see later)....
The Constitutional History of England

The Constitutional History of England

Frederic William Maitland

Cambridge University Press
1920
pokkari
'Constitutional history should, to my mind, be a history not of parties but of institutions, not of struggles but of results …' F. W. Maitland's remarkable course of lectures provides the basic framework of English constitutional history in a brief, but original, scholarly and very readable form. His method is to take five crucial periods and to present in each a panoramic view of the processes of law and government; his attention is always fixed on the constitution as a growing fabric, as something devised and employed by live human beings. And in this work, as in all he subsequently wrote, Maitland shows a rare combination of high speculative power with exact knowledge of detail.
