of Law in Pre-Reformation Scotland (Scottish Historical Review
Monograph)
In 1532 James V founded a College of Justice, an event that
marked an important step in the institutional development of
the Court of Session. At the same time it was enacted that a
small number of advocates should be licensed to appear before
the College. This study casts light not only upon that key generation
of advocates but also the legal world in which they operated.
What kind of men were they? What status did they have? What
of their education and career pattern? How did they carry on
their profession and by what rules were they constrained? For
who did they act and why? This book investigates questions such
as these and describes the impact made by members of the nascent
legal profession on Scottish culture, politics and social life
in the first half of the 16th century.
