WILLIAM (1850-1906) , See also:English jurist and historian, son of See also:John Gorham Maitland, was See also:born on the 28th of May r85o, and educated at See also:Eton and Trinity, See also:Cambridge, being bracketed at the See also:head of the moral sciencestripos of 1872, and winning a See also:Whewell scholarship for inter-See also:national See also:law. He was called to the See also:bar (See also:Lincoln's See also:Inn) in 1876, and made himself a thoroughly competent See also:equity lawyer and conveyancer, but finally devoted himself to See also:comparative See also:jurisprudence and especially the See also:history of English law. In 1884 he was appointed reader in English law at Cambridge, and in 1888 became See also:Downing See also:professor of the See also:laws of See also:England. Though handicapped in his later years by delicate See also:health, his intellectual grasp and wide knowledge and See also:research gradually made him famous as a jurist and historian. He edited numerous volumes for the See also:Selden Society, including Select Pleas for the See also:Crown, 1200-1225, Select Pleas in Manorial Courts and The See also:Court See also:Baron; and among his See also:principal See also:works were See also:Gloucester Pleas (1884), See also:Justice and See also:Police (1885), See also:Bracton's See also:Note-See also:Book (1887), History of English Law (with See also:Sir F. See also:Pollock, 1895; new ed. 1898; see also his See also:article ENGLISH LAW in this See also:encyclopaedia), Domesday Book and Beyond (1897), Township and See also:- BOROUGH (A.S. nominative burh, dative byrig, which produces some of the place-names ending in bury, a sheltered or fortified place, the camp of refuge of a tribe, the stronghold of a chieftain; cf. Ger. Burg, Fr. bor, bore, bourg)

Borough (1898), See also:Canon Law in England (1898), English Law and the See also:Renaissance (1901), the See also:Life of See also:Leslie See also:Stephen (1906), besides important contributions to the Cambridge See also:Modern History, the English See also:Historical See also:Review, the Law Quarterly Review, Harvard Law Review and other publications. His writings are marked by vigour and vitality of See also:style, as well as by the highest qualities of the historian who recreates the past from the See also:original See also:sources; he had no sympathy with either legal or historical pedantry; and his See also:death at See also:Grand See also:Canary on the 19th of See also:December 1906 deprived English law and letters of one of their most scholarly and most inspiring representatives, notable alike for sweetness of See also:character, acuteness in See also:criticism, and See also:wisdom in counsel.
