The Administrative Structures in Medieval England (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book provides a comprehensive exploration of the evolution of administrative structures in medieval England, tracing their development from the early Anglo-Saxon period through to the Tudor dynasty and the Glorious Revolution. It offers a deep analysis of the historical, political, and social transformations that shaped English governance, examining key figures, events, and ideas that contributed to the consolidation of royal authority, the rise of common law, and the eventual establishment of constitutional monarchy. Through detailed examinations of the monarchy, the legal system, the role of the Church, the manor, and Parliament, the book highlights the shifting power dynamics between the monarchy, the nobility, the emerging middle class, and common people. Drawing on primary sources such as the Domesday Book, Magna Carta, and the Bill of Rights, the text also integrates the political philosophies and ideological shifts that influenced the development of English legal and political structures. The study of the English Civil War and the Glorious Revolution serves as a critical turning point, marking the end of absolute monarchy and the establishment of parliamentary supremacy, which laid the groundwork for modern democratic systems. Ultimately, the book illustrates how these administrative and political changes in medieval England provided the foundation for the enduring institutions of the English state, shaping the trajectory of not only English governance but also the broader evolution of Western constitutional and democratic thought.
