Focusing on two key thirteenth-century English statutes, the Provisions of Westminster and the Statute of Marlborough, this study delves into their political and legal contexts. It explores the drafting process and analyzes a diverse array of manuscript sources to reveal how these laws were applied and interpreted until 1307. This comprehensive examination marks the first significant work addressing these statutes during a transformative era of legislative development.
