One of the great intellectuals of his era Bacon held the posts of Solicitor General Attorney General and Lord Chancellor during the reign of James I. The Elements of the Common Laws of England is the general title for a work that is comprised of two different treatises: A Collection of Some Principall Rules and Maximes of the Common Lawes of England and The Use of the Law Provided for the Preservation of Our Persons Goods and Good Names. The first contains a set of twenty-five maxims or regulae one of the earliest if not the first collections of maxims on English law. This collection was intended to be the first part of De Regulis Juris a codification of English law that Bacon never completed. The second treatise is a review of the history and practical application of criminal law estate law personal property law and the law of slander. As noted by the ESTC The Use of the Law is probably not by Bacon; it was first printed anonymously as Part II of The Lawyers Light 1629 by Sir John Doddridge. Constantine. unknown
