Magna Carta and the Beginnings of English Constitution
Aleksandar Maršavelski
Sažetak
The author starts his article with a review of basic historical facts in the development of the English constitution. In this historical review the author shows some of the acts that were brought before Magna Carta: Charter of Liberties 1100., Surrenduring England
to the pope 1213., Unknown Charter of Liberties, Articles of the barons; and others that were brought afterwords – among others he points to the bulla Etsi Carissimus, which derogated Magna Carta. The author, in his commentary, concludes that Magna Carta
is an agreement between the king and his baron, and than analyzes its content – where he specially comments on the articles of constitutional importance. What is essential in this work is the comparison between The Great Charter and The Golden Bull, where the author discovered a great resemblance.
