Littleton’s Tenures in English (1903) is a book written by Thomas Littleton, an English jurist and judge who lived in the 15th century. The book is a legal treatise that explains the laws and customs of medieval England regarding land tenure, property rights, and inheritance. It is considered one of the most important works of English legal literature and has been studied by lawyers and scholars for centuries.The book is divided into ten chapters, each of which deals with a different aspect of land tenure. The first chapter explains the basic principles of feudalism, which was the dominant social and economic system in medieval England. The subsequent chapters discuss the different types of land tenure, such as freehold, copyhold, and leasehold, and the rights and obligations that come with each.Littleton’s Tenures also covers topics such as the transfer of property, the rights of widows and heirs, and the laws governing the sale and purchase of land. The book is written in Middle English, which may be challenging for modern readers, but it has been translated into modern English and is still considered a valuable resource for those studying English legal history.Overall, Littleton’s Tenures in English (1903) is a comprehensive and authoritative guide to the laws and customs of medieval England regarding land tenure and property rights. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of English law and the development of property rights in the Western world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world’s literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
