F. W. Maitland: faithful dissenter
No full textSuch is the worth and unity of Maitland’s works that anyone who endeavours to tell a piece of it must feel that his first sentence tears a seamless web. Variably hailed as a ‘patron saint’ and ‘the master’, with revisions to his views regarded as ‘heresies’, it is clear that Maitland was and is a classic: he is one of those rare figures who ‘still speak to us in a voice which is held to be relevant’ and with whom ‘a continuing dialogue is carried on’. As Milsom has eulogised, Maitland’s work remains ‘a still living authority’ providing ‘the foundation of all we know about the history of common law’: Maitland’s work ‘established both the subject and the assumptions on which historians have worked ever since’ so much so that those interested in the history of English law still invariably begin with Maitland: ‘Their questions still take the form: was Maitland right?’ This chapter will contend that this is as true in relation to the history of ecclesiastical law as it is for the history of the common law. It will argue that Maitland’s picture of the historical development of the relations between Church and State, as found mainly in his essays collected in Roman Canon Law in the Church of England, continue to provide the starting point for studies today
HISTORY, LAW AND FREEDOM: F. W. MAITLAND IN CONTEXT
No full textThis article considers the intellectual development of the historian and jurist F. W. Maitland (1850–1906). Its focus is the development of his ideas about the importance of intermediate groups between the individual and the state. Maitland expounded these ideas in a dazzling series of late essays which became the wellspring of the tradition known as “political pluralism.” Yet, as this article shows, the same ideas also played a crucial role in Maitland's great works of legal and historical scholarship, includingThe History of English Law. If this is appreciated, then the liberal, Germanist and constitutionalist basis of Maitland's thought becomes clear. So too does Maitland's position as a “new” liberal thinker, committed to freedom and constitutionalism, but critical of individualism and parliamentary sovereignty. In short, it is only if Maitland's political essays are read alongside his works of history and law that either can really be understood.</jats:p
