No two books outside the bounds of technical law are more worth reading for law students than Pickwick Papers and Bleak House.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Charles Dickens as a Legal Historian' is a masterful exploration of the intersection between Victorian literature and the evolution of the British legal system. Written by the eminent legal historian William S. Holdsworth, this work delves into how Dickens, through his iconic novels such as 'Bleak House' and 'The Pickwick Papers,' acted as a meticulous chronicler of the law.Holdsworth argues that Dickens' vivid portrayals of the Court of Chancery, the legal profession, and the complexities of nineteenth-century statutes provide an invaluable historical record of a system in desperate need of reform. The book examines specific legal figures and institutions, demonstrating how Dickens' fiction mirrored the real-world frustrations and procedural absurdities of his era. By analyzing the accuracy and impact of these literary critiques, Holdsworth illuminates the profound influence Dickens had on public perception and the eventual modernization of English law.This scholarly yet accessible study is essential for readers interested in the history of jurisprudence, the Victorian era, and the enduring social power of the works of Charles Dickens. It stands as a unique testament to how literature can serve as a primary source for understanding legal development and social history.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Highlights from his long and prolific career, they address such topics as martial law, the English constitution, case law, equity, trusts, libel, law reporting, contracts and land law. The book concludes with a table of cases and name and general indexes. "These essays tend to enlarge the mind and to stir the imagination. They are the work of one of the most distinguished of the great line of English legal historians." --Bernard L. Shientag, Columbia Law Review 47 (1947) 1255 WILLIAM S. HOLDSWORTH [1871-1944] was a professor of constitutional law at Cambridge from 1903-1908 and the Vinerian Professor of English Law at Oxford from 1922-1944. He is well-known for his monumental History of English Law (1st ed. 1908) and other works, such as Charles Dickens as a Legal Historian (1929) and Some Makers of English Law (1938).

ISBN-13: 9781584774716; ISBN-10: 1584774711. Holdsworth, William S., and C.W. Vickers. The Law of Succession, Testamentary and Intestate. Originally published: Oxford: B.H. Blackwell, 1899. xiv, 311 pp. Reprinted 2004 by the Lawbook Exchange, Ltd. ISBN-13: 9781584774716; ISBN-10: 1584774711. Hardcover. New. $24.95 * Intended as an introductory treatise for law students, this treatise serves as an excellent introduction and a useful reference. And as one would expect from a book co-written by Holdsworth [1871-1944], it goes beyond the law of his day to analyze its historical development. In addition to a valuable introductory chapter on the history of succession, the authors enrich their discussion in the main text with observations on the ways its principles developed over time in response to particular conditions. Their functionalist view, which owes much to Maitland's example, enabled them to create a sophisticated text that avoids the pitfalls of contemporary formalistic and "scientific" treatises. …
