  Fall, 2018

 

I am offering both a course and course/seminar this semester in English legal and constitutional history. Each offering is listed in both the FAS and the Law School catalogues. The requirements for the course are a bit different, depending on whether one is an undergraduate, a law student, or an FAS graduate student. For more details see the website. The course/seminar is History 2080 (formerly History 2126) (Medieval Law) and Law 2166 (Seminar: Legal History: English Legal History). This is a graduate-level reading course/seminar with short papers. It meets on Tuesdays from 5:00 p.m. – 7:00 p.m. in Wasserstein 3009 (Law School). It will cover many of the same topics as the course, although in a somewhat different order and in more depth. The course/seminar assumes a basic knowledge of the material covered in the course. If you would like to pursue the topic at this level but feel uncomfortable with your basic knowledge of English constitutional and legal history, you may attend the course/seminar but you should also attend the lectures in the course (Mon. and Wed. at 10:30 in the Yard, Sever 213). It is possible to take both offerings for credit. Let me know at the first meeting of the course/seminar if you want to do that. For more information on the course/seminar and its requirements, I have posted a joint syllabus. Since the enrollment in the course/seminar is likely to be small, please let me know if you would like to attend but cannot make the meeting time. We may be able to reschedule it. Also, the syllabus for the course/seminar is not fixed in brass. If there’s a topic that you particularly like to cover and that is not on the list, let me know by the second meeting, and I’ll see if we can fit it in.
