Modus Tenendi Parliamentum

Modus Tenendi Parliamentum is a historic treatise on the parliamentary proceedings of England, written by Thomas Duffus Hardy and first published in 1846. The book provides a detailed account of the rules and customs governing the conduct of parliamentary sessions during the medieval period, covering topics such as the summoning of parliament, the role of the monarch, the election of representatives, the order of business, and the passing of legislation. Drawing on a wide range of primary sources, including statutes, charters, and parliamentary records, Hardy offers a comprehensive overview of the parliamentary system in England from its origins in the thirteenth century up to the time of publication. The book is an important resource for scholars of British history, political science, and law, as well as for anyone interested in the evolution of parliamentary democracy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
