Описание: Common Law, Civil Law, and Colonial Law builds upon the legal historian F.W. Maitland's famous observation that history involves comparison, and that those who ignore every system but their own 'hardly came in sight of the idea of legal history'. The extensive introduction addresses the intellectual challenges posed by comparative approaches to legal history. This is followed by twelve essays derived from papers delivered at the 24th British Legal History Conference. These essays explore patterns in legal norms, processes, and practice across an exceptionally broad chronological and geographical range. Carefully selected to provide a network of inter-connections, they contribute to our better understanding of legal history by combining depth of analysis with historical contextualization. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

Описание: Preston Catholic College grammar school opened its doors to its first 11 pupils in 1865; it provided an education to young boys from the city and surrounding areas for more than a century afterwards.
Thousands of students spent their formative years at the institution, until the last cohort entered in the autumn of 1977. For the duration of their secondary school life, these pupils remained the youngest year group in attendance, making their time at the college a highly unusual experience.
In this book, we get to meet those boys almost 50 years later and hear their reminiscences and memories of life as the 'last intake'. The stories in its pages reveal plenty of common preoccupations and shared highs and lows from the time. But they also provide fascinatingly different perspectives on the teaching the college offered, as well as an illustration of the varied futures its alumni went on to follow when they went their separate ways.
Together, these recollections add up to a wonderful social history of a very particular place, at a very particular time.
