Political Theories of the Middle Age

Gierke, Otto. Political Theories of the Middle Ages. Translated with an introduction by Frederick William Maitland. Cambridge: At the University Press, 1913. lxxx, 197 pp. Reprinted 2002 by The Lawbook Exchange, Ltd. LCCN 2001041398. Hardcover. New. Gierke's masterful analysis of the medieval doctrine of sovereignty or government is enhanced by Maitland's deft introductory essay on the nature of the state entity in Germany and England. That Maitland held Gierke and this work in high esteem is apparent. He proclaims in the Introduction: "The outlines are large, the strokes are firm, and medieval appears as an introduction to modern thought." Introduction p. [vii]. Marke, A Catalogue of the Law Collection at New York University (1953) 431, 938.
