William Stubbs (1825 1901), one of the leading historians of his
generation, pursued his academic research alongside his work as a
clergyman. He was elected Regius Professor of Modern History at
Oxford in 1866 and appointed a bishop in 1884. Stubbs was a major
figure in medieval English historiography, with special interests
in legal and constitutional history. This work was first published
in 1870. It begins with an outline of English constitutional
history, which he urged should be part of the curriculum, and then
presents documents from Roman times up to the thirteenth century.
Eight editions followed in Stubbs' lifetime, and it became a core
textbook. The ninth edition of 1913, revised by H. W. C. Davis
(1874 1928), is reissued here, and contains better editions and
translations of Anglo-Saxon and French texts than were available in
Stubbs' lifetime, as well as some then newly discovered material
and an updated glossary.
