SJS4- "Magna Carta Third Edition"

Source- Holt, J.C.. "Magna Carta", edition 3, Cambridge U P

Author Credentials- This author, J.C. Holt is experienced with scholarly journals, for he is published by the Cambridge University Press in 2015. Holt is a professor at Cambridge University and the people that assisted him in the introduction went to Oxford University and the University of Saint Andrews.

Summary- "Magna Carta" was about the historiographical assessment of the original Magna Carta. It states that the Magna Carta is not as influential as perceived by the people England. King John of England was not popular because of his unsuccessful military campaigns, high taxes, and conflicting foreign affairs. The assessment is said that the writing is a perfect example of jurisdiction abstraction in characteristics.

Analysis- I believe that the analysis of the Magna Carta is accurate becuase of the facts of the negative connotations of the King and the comparisons between the "Magna Carta" and the "Ius Cummune." According to "Magnus Carta" assessment of The original Magna Carta, it is a negative thought of certain people. I agree with the fact hat King John was not a very good leader, for he did not do well and slot money and land with foreign affairs, JC Holt is also has good credentials so I know he has educated reasonings.
