Produktbeschreibung
Russian historian and jurist Sir Paul Vinogradoff (1854-1925) maintained throughout his life a serious scholarly interest in the history of Great Britain, his adopted country. Elected to a professorship at Oxford in 1903, to the British Academy in 1905, and knighted for services to the realm in increasing Anglo-Russian understanding during the war (1917), Vinogradoff demonstrates in this book of 1892 both his interest in feudal England and his historiographic approach, which relied on detailed research using primary sources to examine individuals, communities, and social structures. Divided into two essays - 'The Peasantry of the Feudal Age' and 'The Manor and the Village Community' - the work used England's extensive feudal records to draw a general character of the period. Villainage will interest students of English or European mediaeval history and scholars of mediaeval legal history and of developments in nineteenth-century historiography.
Autorenporträt
Justly famous as a historian of roman law and as a comparative lawyer, Paul Vinogradoff [1854-1925] also wrote on public international law and English legal history. Roman Law in Medieval Europe (1909) contains his essays on roman law in France, England and Germany and the decay of roman law and the revival of jurisprudence. His Villainage in England (1892) is a classic study of peasantry in the feudal age. His other major works include Outlines in Historical Jurisprudence (1920), a complex description and analytical perspective of the growth of jurisprudence from tribal to modern law, and On the History of International Law and International Organization: Collected Papers of Sir Paul Vinogradoff (2009), which collects his most important contributions to international law and historical jurisprudence.
