JUDICIARY
Scholars of English legal and constitutional history are generally in agreement that King
Henry II (1133–1189) was the principal facilitator in the development of English common
law and the judicial machinery used to administer it. When Henry became king in 1154,
he wanted to strengthen both his political and economic positions. To assist in achieving
these ends, he synthesized both old and new ideas with regard to centralizing the
administration of justice.
Prior to Henry’s reign, the administration of justice was essentially carried out at the
grassroots level. While there were a number of local courts with varying degrees of
jurisdiction, the shire or county courts were the most significant before the Norman
invasion of 1066. The principal officers of the shire courts were wealthy landowners, the
bishop, and the reeve of the shire (who later would be referred to as the sheriff). Social
rank, rather than knowledge of law, was the criterion used to determine who judged
cases.
Feudalism was firmly established after the Norman invasion. As noted earlier, feudalism
provided social and economic security for people who worked the land for a lord of the
manor. One of the responsibilities of a lord was to administer justice; this was carried out
in the manor court. Lords of the manor were a powerful political force for the king to
consider. It was from this group that Henry II enhanced his political power by wrestling
from them the authority to administer justice. He accomplished this by utilizing several
different strategies.
First, some people had become dissatisfied with the administration of justice at the
manorial level. They wanted the king, who in theory was the source of justice, to decide
their cases. Kings of England had for years relied upon their Curia Regis, or Great Council,
for advice. The Curia Regis counseled the king on domestic, foreign, and military affairs,
and served as a court to settle disputes among powerful lords of the kingdom. It was from
the Curia Regis that Henry created and permanently established three courts at the city of
Westminster. The Court of Exchequer decided questions between the Crown and the
taxpayer. The Court of Common Pleas had original jurisdiction in both civil and criminal
cases between subjects of the king. The Court of King’s Bench had original jurisdiction in
cases between the lords of the realm, as well as appellate jurisdiction for certain cases from
Common Pleas and other local courts.
Second, if subjects could not come to the courts that permanently ...

In my last lecture, we discussed the connection between the Agricultural Revolution, the rise in
population, the development of manors, and the growth of cities between the 10th and 12th
centuries. Alongside this, we saw the dramatic rise of the popes, whose power grew to amazing
heights due to their use of tools like excommunication and crusades. But the power of the
medieval popes would not remain uncontested. In the 12th and 13th centuries, the kings of Europe
found ways to increase their own power, sometimes at the expense of the popes and other times
at the expense of their own people. It was also during this time that a new renaissance took place.
This was the aptly named Twelfth Century Renaissance, and it would lead to the creation of
institutions and ideas that we still use and enjoy today.
[SLIDE] Let’s start with our questions: Our first question is: how did kings gain power in the
12th and 13th centuries? Second, we’re going to consider how the Twelfth Century Renaissance
affected society.
[SLIDE] If you remember back to my last lecture, I explained that due to the invasions of
Vikings and other new barbarian groups in the 9th and 10th centuries, kings lost power. They
weren’t able to protect their people from attack, and so people turned instead to lords who had
the armies and castles needed to defend them. Fearing that these increasingly powerful lords
would try to unseat them from their thrones, the kings developed the concept of divine right. By
portraying themselves as chosen by God to rule, kings discouraged lords from trying to rise up
and overthrow the current kings. The concept of divine right was generally pretty successful, but
that was the only tool that kings had, and they remained pretty weak. This changed in the 12th
and 13th centuries. At this time, the kings of Europe took steps to expand their power and enforce
their authority, and of all of these kingdoms, the kings of England and France became the most
powerful. What’s interesting, though, is that the kings of England and France attaine.

Taxation in Europe
Domain states and tax states
Starting around 1500 there was a large increase in tax revenues and the size of armies in Spain, France, Austrian Empire, England
Kings consolidated territories (easier for defense)
Kings hired mercenaries from at home and other countries
Contrast with China, which went directly to conscription of mass armies by 200 BCE
Revenues used mainly for military (90%)
France
French state was built up from a base around Paris that was the property of the royal family; these provinces were ruled directly by the king; other provinces were added over time but were allowed to retain their own inherited rules; let’s call these the core provinces and the peripheral provinces
In general the provinces had Estates, composed of the three orders: clergy, nobility, and commoners, or the first, second, and third estates
The provincial Estates gained privileges for themselves, with different rules for different provinces, especially in the more recently acquired peripheral provinces
France
There was also an Estates General, representing the whole country; it failed to restrain the king in the 1440s as France was driving England out of France; the Estates General was last called together in 1614 and again failed; not called again until 1789
After 1500 French kings continued to bargain with provincial estates (now called parlements); elites at provincial and local levels bargained for tax exemptions; these elites came to include wealthy businessmen as well as aristocrats and clergy; the tax burden fell on non-elites
French kings’ desire for revenue exceeded tax revenues; they resorted to borrowing from financial centers in Italy, Switzerland, Germany
France
Lenders borrowed on the promise of future tax receipts; kings at times failed to pay, and renegotiated the loans
Kings turned to the sale of offices; office holder was entitled to receive part or all of the revenue from a particular tax in a particular location
In early 1600s king offered to make some offices hereditary in return for a fee (the paulette); this venal office holding spread; system of office holding and taxation became very complex, with special privileges for individuals, some of whom were aristocrats, others merely wealthy
France
Kings’ credibility was low among foreign lenders; kings resorted to demanding loans from office holders, who after all had a stake in the system; this is called “inside finance”
Administrative centralization; kings appointed officials to go into the provinces and supervise the collection of taxes; they served at the pleasure of the king’s finance minister and were independent of local elites and venal office holders; these royal officials were called intendants; typically a recently ennobled man, with an assistant who was a commoner

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Henry vii's government - ways of control
1. Henry VII - Government
Elliot Mackness
Once downloaded, you can click on
the different coloured text for links
to contextual resources.
2. Government Overview
Henry VII had to control his government, and
increase the stability of his administration through
these channels of governmental power – these
included; Central Government; Regional
Government, and Local Government. Henry VII
sought to increase his control in these fields, and
ensure the loyalty of the subjects that he placed
into these positions.
3. Central Government
Henry VII would need to increase his grasp on
power within his own central government, if he
wished to secure the survival of the Tudor dynasty.
During this era, a ‘kings council’ sat to advise the
king on what to do, this was a very large council,
however, Henry relied on a smaller committee from
within the council. Henry used this method, and set
up a series of new councils and courts from within
the kings council.
4. Central Government
The court of requests – the
general population could make
requests and suggestions.
The Court of general surveyors –
this court oversaw the surveying
of revenue from crownlands, and
those where the king was feudal
overlord.
The Council Learned – the most
notorious of the new courts, this
court oversaw criminal justice,
and saw the implementation of
bonds and recognisances, leading
to much hatred.
5. Regional Government
Henry VII would need to increase his grasp over the
outlying regions of the country, Henry did this in his
use of ‘regional councils’ – what we would know as
‘autonomous regions’.
Northern England – Henry had appointed the Duke of Northumberland as
head of the council in the north, but following his death in the Yorkshire
rising, Henry appointed the Earl of Surrey to act as his deputy in the north.
The council had administrative powers, and was able to enforce crown laws
quickly and efficiently – however, all members of the council were appointed
by Henry, not by Surrey – so he was able to increase their loyalty to the
crown.
6. Regional Government
Council of wales and the Marches – In Wales, the Marcher lords had gained
considerable wealth and influence in the Welsh region, if Henry was to
control this particularly unruly area, he would need to decrease the power
of the Marcher lords and bring the council under his control.
In 1493 Henry placed his son, Arthur (died in 1502) as nominal head of the
council; and with the death of many marcher lords, Henry was able to
increase his control in the region.
7. Regional Government
Ireland – Ireland posed a particular problem for Henry, direct English control
over Ireland was limited to an area called ‘the pale’ but passed this, the
crown had little control, it was the major Irish families that held sway here.
The Earl of Kildare was particularly problematic, as he consistently helped
rebels, like Perkin Warbeck. However, after Ponying's failure to bring Ulster
under greater control, Kildare was placed back as deputy for Ireland.
8. Local Government
Henry VII developed the Justices of the peace position, although this was not
a new concept (later becoming magistrates), Henry increased the power of
these unpaid officials massively. Their new set of roles included:
. Implementing Social and economic statutes
. Dispensing justice and trying criminal offences
. Upholding public order
. Acting in cases of non-capital offences without jury
. Arresting poachers
. Empowered to grant bail.
Although this sounds good, these officials were still dependent on other
officials bringing the criminals to them, so Henry was still dependent on
goodwill to ensure that justice was implemented.
