‎Shakespeare A Lawyer‎

‎2006. ISBN-13: 9781584776994; ISBN 1584776994. Rushton William L. Shakespeare A Lawyer. Originally published: London: Longman Brown Green Longmans and Roberts 1858. 50 pp. Reprinted 2006 by The Lawbook Exchange Ltd. ISBN-13: 9781584776994; ISBN 1584776994. Hardcover. New. $18.95 The frequent occurrence of legal terms phrases and concepts in Shakespeare's works have led several scholars to conclude that he was trained as a lawyer or that he studied the law during his youth. This belief is bolstered by a few tantalizing bits of biographical data that link him to legal London. This subject attracted a great deal of attention during the nineteenth century particularly in Great Britain. This brief book by Rushton a London barrister is among the most sophisticated. Unlike other studies he restricts his attention to legal words and phrases that laymen would not have known. He locates and discusses around a hundred examples that were "used by Shakespeare with a consciousness of their original technicality and of their legal purport" 7. Whether or not you support Rushton's thesis his book is appealing for its quotations and commentary. unknown books‎

Schwartz provides a masterly exposition of administrative law through a comparative study of the French droit administratif arguably the most sophisticated Continental model.

Holdsworth adds that a comparison between Pulton and the less comprehensive Staunford "enables us to appreciate the effect of the additions to and alterations of the criminal law made during this period both by the legislature and by the judges of the common law courts and of the Court of Star Chamber" 392-393.

It also shows how these relationships determine water rights. This book has three parts: Part One: The Rights of States and Nations examines international rights and constitutional and statutory rights. Part Two: Rights Between Public and Individual includes the public use of waterways municipal water supply drainage and rights of navigation. Part Three: Rights Between Individuals discusses the rights of riparian owners in watercourses such as the right to dam a stream. Reprint of the sole edition. "The author has properly divided the general subject of waters so as to show the rights depending on these different relations and not as is the usual method of division on the mere characteristics of the body of water on or about which a particular right arises. As a general rule it is believed the production of legal works of large scope should be discouraged. With the exception of a few notable treatises the legal works covering broad subjects are now of little use to the practising lawyer. His needs are best met by the book which embraces a small field and in that field gives to the cases and principles a profound and careful examination and discussion. Mr. Farnham's comprehensive treatise must be regarded as a clear exception to the general rule.": J.M.B. Jr. Harvard Law Review 18 1904-05:77-78.

This book is mentioned by Holdsworth in A History of English Law who deems it a "learned book" XIII: 496. According to Spence's preface his work on the translation of the Code Napoleon led him to "look attentively into the civil law of the Romans where he found that a great proportion of the doctrines of the common law of England even many of those which are purely artificial were to be found in the Corpus Juris Civilis. This induced him to study the civil and criminal code of the Romans with some minuteness and to compare the political and judicial institutions of modern Europe and of our own country in particular with those of ancient Rome in order to discover to what extent the former might be traced from the latter their venerable and classical origins." v.
