1871‐1944 British legal historian. In 1897, he became a Fellow of his alma mater, Oxford University, a professor of constitutional law at the University of London from 1903 to 1908, a lecturer in English law at Oxford in 1910, and a professor in 1922, a position he held until his death. He also worked in government affairs. His academic energy was astonishing, and his major work, A History of English Law (1903-72), consisted of 17 volumes and took nearly 70 years to publish. This book describes the history of English law in all areas, from its earliest period to the court law of 1873-75. As an overview of the entire history of English law by a single author, it is not without its shortcomings in terms of completeness, but it is not only valuable as an encyclopedia of English legal history, but also unparalleled as a comprehensive history that provides a detailed overview of English legal history from a consistent perspective.

1871‐1944 イギリスの法制史家。1897年母校オックスフォード大学のフェロー,1903‐08年ロンドン大学の憲法の教授,10年オックスフォード大学の英法講師,22年同教授となり,死ぬまでこの地位にあった。ほかに政府関係の仕事でも活躍している。彼の学問的エネルギーは驚嘆すべきものがあり,主著《英法史》(1903‐72)は17巻を数え,その出版には70年近い年月を要した。本書は英法の歴史をその最初期から1873‐75年の裁判所法に至るまで全分野にわたって叙述したもので,1人の著者による全英法史の概観だけに完全さの点では欠ける点がなくもないが,英法史の事典的価値を有するのみならず,一貫した立場から英法史を詳細に鳥瞰した通史としても比類のない存在である。 出典 株式会社平凡社世界大百科事典 第2版について 情報 |
