摘要
这篇论文探讨了首席大法官科克的性格以及他对英国法律发展的贡献。更具体地说,重点在于他对普通法的深刻理解以及随之而来的对人类自由的强调。科克对普通法的强调是他与国王詹姆斯一世(King James 1)以及后来的国王查尔斯一世(King Charles 1)之间冲突不断的原因。在这个时代,他们忠实于王室的做法,坚决支持王室专制主义,认为它源于神圣的起源。詹姆斯一世得到了弗朗西斯-培根爵士的支持。他与科克之间也存在着激烈的个人竞争。面对詹姆斯一世和培根对他观点的不断攻击,科克只能求助于普通法。
In this contribution Chief Justice Coke's character and contribution to the development of the English law are considered. More specifically the focus falls on his profound knowledge of the Common Law and the concomitant emphasizing of human freedom. Coke's emphasizing of the Common Law was the cause of continuous conflict between himself and King James 1 and later also King Charles 1. True to the Royal approach in this era they strongly endorsed Royal absolutism, believing it stemmed from a divine origin. James 1 enjoyed the support of Sir Francis Bacon. Also between him and Coke intense rivalry, also of a personal nature, existed. Against James 1 and Bacon's continuing attacks on his views, Coke could only turn to the common law.
期刊介绍:
PELJ/PER publishes contributions relevant to development in the South African constitutional state. This means that most contributions will concern some aspect of constitutionalism or legal development. The fact that the South African constitutional state is the focus, does not limit the content of PELJ/PER to the South African legal system, since development law and constitutionalism are excellent themes for comparative work. Contributions on any aspect or discipline of the law from any part of the world are thus welcomed.
