Uczeni zajmujący się prawem w epoce średniowiecza na ogół nie porównują polskich i angielskich systemów prawnych, choć w XIII wieku cechowała je zaskakująca liczba podobieństw. Jest to szczególnie wyraźne, jeśli weźmie się pod uwagę zbieżność ewolucji instytucji prawnych będącą odpowiedzią na problemy społeczno-historyczne epoki. Bezpośrednio ilustruje to historyczna i tekstowa analiza Magna Carta i Księgi Elbląskiej, dwóch kluczowych tekstów dla rodzimych systemów prawnych. W artykule omówiono możliwości płynące z tej nowej perspektywy porównawczej, wraz ze wskazaniem kierunków dalszych badań.

Medieval legal scholars generally do not compare the Polish and English legal systems, though in the 13th century they share a surprising number of similarities. This is especially clear if one considers the convergent of evolution of legal institutions in response to socio-historical problems. This is concretely traced through historical and textual analysis of Magna Carta and Księga Elbląska, two foundational texts in their respective legal systems. Ramifications of this new comparative perspective are discussed, with avenues of further research outlined.

This article’s main aim is to summarise the crucial period of the reign of King John of England during so-called first barons’ war of 1215–1217 and through the examination of contemporary sources show possible attitudes to the invasion of Prince Louis of France in 1216, when he was invited by English barons to become their new king, which eventually turned to the usurpation when King John died and his son Henry became the King of England with support of those who had been adherents of Louis before. In June 1215, English barons persuaded King John to agree with terms of Magna Carta, limiting royal power in various branches of law. When Magna Carta was proclaimed null and unlawful by Pope Innocent III allowing John not to be bound by its terms, it meant open war with English rebels. They negotiated an invasion of Prince Louis, the eldest son of Philip II, the King of France, and they promised him a crown of England. In October 1216, King John suddenly died in the middle of war and he was succeeded by his son Henry. Henry III was in relatively short time accepted by most of rebellious barons leaving Louis in very precarious situation and it eventually led to Louis’ defeat in 1217. The treaty of Lambeth (September 1217) ended this war with Plantagenets still on English throne.
