The Magna Carta (1215)

- One of the most famous of all medieval texts.
Magna Carta Libertatum (Medieval Latin for "the Great Charter of the Liberties"), commonly called Magna Carta, is a charter of rights agreed to by King John of England on 15 June 1215 after intense civil unrest within the kingdom.
First drafted by the Archbishop of Canterbury to make peace between the unpopular King and a group of rebel barons, it promised the protection of church rights, protection for the barons from illegal imprisonment, access to swift justice, and limitations on feudal payments to the Crown, to be implemented through a council of 25 barons.
Ultimately neither side stood behind their commitments, and the charter was annulled by Pope Innocent III, leading to the First Barons' War. After John's death, the regency government of his young son, Henry III, reissued the document in 1216, stripped of some of its more radical content, in an unsuccessful bid to build political support for their cause. At the end of the war in 1217, it formed part of the peace treaty agreed at Lambeth, where the document acquired the name Magna Carta, to distinguish it from the smaller Charter of the Forest which was issued at the same time. Short of funds, Henry reissued the charter again in 1225 in exchange for a grant of new taxes. His son, Edward I, repeated the exercise in 1297, this time confirming it as part of England's statute law.

Can you do the magna Carter 2020 please 🙏
The barons met at Bury St Edmunds in 1214, perhaps on 15 October. Overlooked by modern scholars, but important to the barons, the abbey grounds held the burial site of Alan Rufus, who founded Parliament in 1089.
Alan led the royal household knights but was also an eminent lawyer who often took kings William I and II to task for infringing the law. Several of the pro-charter barons such as John fitz Hugh were blood-relatives of Alan’s, or trained by them as William Marshal was.

Oh it’s 1215?
I thought it was 1251.
Some chicanery this is!
One year after the Magna Carta. As if I could ever make such a mistake!
It was added to and changed (slightly) four times. 1215 - 1251. Then the USA used the base of it for their Bill of Rights, India, Canada and Australia also used the Charter for the basic Common Law, that Western countries use. The law of precedence.
@@ManicBard woosh
1216!!!! One after Magna Carta!!!!
The moment when 1261 became 1216
As if I could ever make such a mistake
In 2022, mentioning the Magna Carta in support of an argument will quickly get shrugged away as if it never existed.
Welcome to socialism in the UK , and EU , they can still pretend they're some free market capitalist nation... but we all know the whole system is early stage socialist/fascism
That depends, if it's in relation to a clause that was only in the 1215 Magna Carta annulled by the Pope after a few weeks and was omitted from all subsequent reissues since 1216 then it's pointless to bring it up seeing it never made it into statute law
@@ericadams3428it’s about the influence it had
@@ericadams3428And who gave the pope that power when he played no part in the customary law documents? King John was bound by his coronation oath to God and the people 🧐 no Devin rights of king's existed.
You know I've heard of the Magna Carta many times, but I never knew what was on paper that was actually very fascinating
paper? you mean the skin….
parchment is far from paper my friend.
@Brian no, it's made from starchy processed parchment, a type of freasepaper, basically hydrophobic (waterproof). It's better than paper
@@EzraMerr it’s animal skin.
Sheep, goat, or calf.
Calf was generally known as vellum.
Parchment paper is coated with silicone so it doesn’t stick, and it can take a fair amount of heat.
It’s not for writing.
"I, King John, who am an idiot. I managed to lose most of my father's landholdings in France. I also spat on the Magna Carta a few years after signing it, as I have the spine of a jellyfish. I with this give all the rich and titled people some juicy concessions to keep them from killing me, the merchants a tiny break, and will continue to screw the normal people and squeeze them like oranges. You may subjugate yourself in front of me now for your thankfulness."

Nice completely true
Spenser, have you read Magna Carta? b There are multiple reference to free men.
@@johnhurst2774 generally that referred to the landed gentry, no?
This is absolute gold- thank you so much.
@@User_Not_Found_ErRrOr13 you realise this is for the UK yes we dont have civil wars that often
Great video!
Love the subtle hint of disdain in the reading! Forcing John to essentially force unwilling citizens to join the Barons in punishing him if he didn't follow the terms is one hell of a flex.
Citizen is not a soveriegn being.
everyone's saying how good this is but this information is genuinely going into one of my ears and out the other wtf
Ha ha! I'm so glad this dribble is not helping me understand much....
You need to understand your history better. Without that context, this will be quite alien. Like someone 800 years from now trying to understand our stuff with no prior knowledge.
The King was a spineless coward who inherited England after the death of his older brother King Richard in battle…. He was abusive to his lords and barons of the kingdom and France was coming in to invade. The Pope, Pope Innocent III was excommunicating people who would not pay the expensive fees and give up their foods and expensive tithes as well as John when he saw the weakling King exerting power called “divine right” stating God placed him as king so he can do whatever the heck he desires to his loyal subjects. After King John being terrified of losing his kingdom to King Philip of France during the impending attack (that Pope Innocent was requesting to get John out) so he cowardly pledged his entire kingdom and all current and futures heirs to the Pope and all future popes. So all the “liberties” that are stated and were converted in Roman Civil Law are moot. Know why? Because it was stated AFTER the initial statement met pledging it all to the Church PERPETUALLY! Roman Civil Law stemming from the Magna Carta is the basis of all law in Europe and America. It’s all pledged to the Church first and foremost, our children and all futures bodies as well. I’d watch the Russell Crowe Robin Hood movie so you can see what led to this document… good movie.
Read between the lines look up any word that might sound “Alien” in blacks law dictionary.
Lol

John may have been terrible but atleast his son Henry III was- oh wait nevermind. Well atleast his grandson Edward Longshanks is well known for his prowess.
FREEEDOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMM
As his friend Archbishop Hubert Walter predicted, William Marshal’s support of John as king after Richard was his most regrettable error.
Arthur of Brittany should have been king, and his sister Eleanor Queen after him. They were popular with the people in both France and England.
Instead we got bully kings.
Impeccable reading of the Great Charter of the Liberties.

Bad King John! He was truly bad.

Amazing, still relevant.
Still loving your work and look forward to each new video. And still asking for more obscure material - things that aren’t normally included in every popular history book and course that provides bits of primary sources. What about some interesting choices from the cuneiform libraries? Or Dura-Europas? Vindolanda? I know a lot of that sort of thing is boring reading, but I have come across some things that are amazing - letters from wives to their businessman husband on a long trading trip ... Roman soldiers from the south serving in Britain and begging for someone to send them extra socks! There are all the discharge metal plaques the Roman legionaries got with the service record.
Your choices are fine, just nothing new a history nerd hasn’t read many times before.
Sometimes the most borring thing is just fascinating multiple times for particular individual for whatever is worth.
king john was an ancestor of mine and great that all lords supported these laws
Good story bro. King John was my great uncle...ie: my grandfather's brother.
OMFG that means Richard the Lionhearted is my uncle too!...and maybe we're cousins...twice removed....or I could be your nephew.
I trace my lineage back to Adam, where the trail inexplicabley ends.
Mine too
@@waynebrinker8095 😂😂😂😂😂
John is everyone’s ancestor now. As is King Harold!
Edward IV has plenty of descendants through one son who lived to a ripe old age and wrote a lot of Tudor history, though we are not told this by people obsessed with the two sons who disappeared in the Tower.

I always like to find good copies of this information to share to people. you seem to have covered it well. thank you.
That time in history when people got tired of being subject to the random whims of any sovereign who might happen to be born into that position.
Can't even imagine what that world must have felt like.
Wonderful reading
Crazy how they don't teach this or the constitution in k-12, I remember learning about the holocaust every year though. Really makes me think.
4chan is the other way sir
These rules sounds smart it's a good thing they kept them
Awesome video😍 can you give us the name of the song in the beginning please?
Amazing to listen to the laws that were the basis of American law. Anyone know why 12 jurors, how that number was decided on? Thank you.
13 was unlucky.
From the Bible the twelve apostles
12 apostles
Its due to several things:
1 is that 12 people is a good indication of what general masses would say regarding a case in particular. Proof: Politcal debates with taking samples from a specific crowd have the group between 10 and 20 people as an general estimate
10:04 fines for trivial offenses must be reasonable and not deprive people of their livelihood. Makes sense. Are you listening British Government?
21:15 All fines issued unfairly shall be remitted. Good idea!
Very cool. Thx
Great stuff guys , is this how it was written ? Or has it been translated for the modern tongue ?
davidboi277 modern tung dude - the English language went through the great vowel shift after this
This is a modern translation from Latin. The King and Barons of England in the 13th century spoke French and most documents were in Latin. Middle English of the time was also a lot more Germanic than it is today.
The beginning is basically John listing his patreon subscribers
There's a really good ale here in the UK named after him, Bad King John.
Once you have it taste like shit well bad king John was a real piece of shit
Between the house of Staines and the house of Windsor on the Runnymede.....a mason wrote down a list of complaints against "Prince John Landless"

The Magna Carta said fuck Gerard and all his friends. (18:57)

Great video!

Is it time, with Brexit scheduled, for the UK to have a written constitution and delineation of rights?
No. For Nehemiah's 12 are doing well Isaiah's 52:3, that I would not be angry with ' You' nor rebuke 'you'.
Steve P No, of course not. That would be extremely Un-English.
There's a subtle difference between English Common Law based on precedent in case law, ie sets out what is unlawful, the rest allowed according to respect, good behaviour; and a Constitution setting out a citizen's 'rights' if not included in the 'rights' it's not allowed. Know which I prefer.
❤ Magna Carta ❤
As far as I know it's not "The Magna Carta" it's just called Magna Carta.
As far as I know you're not "The Pedant", you're just pedantic.
The City of London is in fact a unique location, a country of its own. Scary shit!
That's not scary dig deeper then you'll find scary
Something we all adore
excellent!
When people ask me if I'm conservative I say "I'm still trying to reissue The Magna Carta, what do you think?"
So if I burn this document it won’t be in effect anymore.
What is the source you’re reading from?

If you would like me to abide by the magna carte, you are welcome to ask me to in person. Until I am asked to, I claim the crown for myself, and I order the magna carte legally void.

Treaty of Alfred and Guthrum
What is the song at the beginning
25 barons = first MPs ? House 🏡 of lords?
The first "parliament" was the Witanagamot or "Witan". consequent to the Monastic Movement 597 Thanet, Vatican formed the Witan. As "lord" means "Ba'al" it would stand t'reason the Lords are ecclesiasts while the House of Commons represents We the PERSONS aka brain dead voters. Read the Dooms of Alfred the Great!
The Magna Carta says that monarchs are no longer above the law. They can only rally to make laws if they want! Most dukes would agree with them if they paid them enough! But a King or Queen is not above the law!
Let me give a quick shout out to...
Terms & Conditions I tell thee, Terms & Conditions. And to wit, as such as it is, 'twas also, afore times. And so I tell thee; sovereign was the decree; unto he, whom a royalties share was sworn. For, and to, the promise of subjection over, and to have ownership of, the entirety of his allotted portion.
And so before time, the Decree had made good those who were minded to it, with all due yields, and with a surplus gain to the fattening of the partakers households; With benefits reaped 'till the length of the generations, counted within the inheritance. 👑
What is all this talk about the Magma Carla????? Who is she?

The legal one yeah.
They cannot touch the 1215 Magna Carta as they wasn't involved init it's customary law
So basically it's still all about the money
When has politics not been economic centered?
The funny thing is, this was translated from English TO English.
And I had to translate it from Latin to English
You know why youre here. 1216

We need another great contract.
Or a more complete return to the heart of the original.
It sounds reasonable even for todays standards...lol
Thats why its still in effect
Wouldn't be reasonable for you if you were alive then (you would have been a peasant therefore not a 'free man') but it's also why it wasn't really followed for long. lol
@Chumleyok
Oh but it *_is_* (by its very definition) reason-able.
Peasantry was a state of affairs IMPOSED upon the majority of the population, by those with the relevant circumstances afforded them at the time.
Had a peasant the circumstantially available _resources_ to become a freeman, I'm sure any unimpeded human being inevitably would.
Factors such as withholding of education, food, fair exchange, opportunity (deliberately - by an "entitled" minority) - ALL contributed toward the social inequality - and by extension - the optimal quality of life, that we should ALL be entitled to have.
The minority [fought] to keep the majority oppressed, so - by fair means or foul - the majority had to "fight" back, to reclaim the God given rights, to which they are unquestioningly entitled.
As continues today (in its own context).
Today, alot of it is to do with the presentation of a facade, to which you are "supposed" to believe is the true state of affairs.
It isn't.
"Law" isn't law.
"Money" isn't money.
Etc.
Today, with people being too busy to have the time to be able to make sense of the whole deception, the "pseudo-system" retains the oblivious majority in ignorance.
Perhaps 2021's social climate, may galvanize a great many of us, to investigate this quite critical component of social cohesion and operation?

Possibly the most overstated document in history by those who wish to oppress other under the a guise of honesty.

FREE MEN: EMPHASIS ON
I'm so glad to be hearing this, as I've only read excerpts. Is anyone who hasn't read it all, surprised at how many times the term "free man" turns up?
Being an African American, that terminology turns up in early American history often also, since for 2.5 centuries we did have slaves (largely from West Africa) and there were concrete laws distinguishing free men from slaves here too. See? History really does repeat itself (no matter how much we study it).
So true, if only we could learn from this terrible cycle we keep finding ourselves in and move forward. If only...
Slavery has been a thing since the first civilizations. It's still practiced around the world.

No the Norman Dutchy was a vassal of West Francia(France as of 987) in 1,066. This is why in the coming centuries France considered England a vassal and England considered itself independent, and they always claimed each others thrones.

First here? Bravo guys.
One of England’s worst kings.
Horrible Storry.
I had no idea that this celebrated document was so tyrannical.
The Pope and the whole church makes the calls before the King.
That's what I got out of this.
Please pay closer attention. The barons heeded neither king nor pope. They demanded the rule of law. They were following the example of Alan Rufus who founded Parliament in 1089.
Alan was the only foreign-born magnate to support the English against the Normans. So much so that in 1091 he launched an English invasion of Normandy that was very popular with the locals and conquered most of the Duchy before a deeply worried King Philip I of France sent Pope Urban II to negotiate.
I do not support the magna carte. I do not endorse the magna carte. I stand in direct and explicit opposition to it.
If the lords have a problem with that, they can speak their grievances to the people that march with me.
If the lords have any grievances, they can speak their grievances to me with a rifle in their mouth.
If the lords are upset that I command food, electricity, housing, land ownership, and internet as unalienable rights, they can speak their grievances to me in person.
It should be noted that I have a legitimate claim to the throne by genetics, birth right, and violence, as the true rightful heir to any and all claims entitled to princess Diana, and the sheer number of guns that stand behind me and pointed at you.
You have a legal and ethical right to claim ownership of your domicile. You have a legal and ethical right to own the place you sleep. You have a legal and ethical right to land ownership (I think 10 acres works quite well with the amount of land vs amount of people)
I say this with the full weight of the crown that is legally mine, following your failed assassination of princess Diana.
