MAGNA CARTA in 1215 AD - History and Legacy

On Traveling Through History, we review the legacy and history of the MAGNA CARTA, one of the most important documents in world history, which changed the pursuit of individual freedoms and rights for all future societies.  Magna Carta (Medieval Latin for "Great Charter"), sometimes spelled Magna Charta, is a royal charter of rights agreed to by King John of England at Runnymede, near Windsor, on 15 June 1215.  First drafted by the Archbishop of Canterbury, Cardinal Stephen Langton, to make peace between the unpopular king and a group of rebel barons who demanded that the King confirm the Charter of Liberties, it promised the protection of church rights, protection for the barons from illegal imprisonment, access to swift and impartial justice, and limitations on feudal payments to the Crown, to be implemented through a council of 25 barons.  Neither side stood by their commitments, and the charter was annulled by Pope Innocent III, leading to the First Barons' War.

At the end of the 16th century, there was an upsurge in interest in Magna Carta.  Lawyers and historians at the time believed that there was an ancient English constitution, going back to the days of the Anglo-Saxons, that protected individual English freedoms.  They argued that the Norman invasion of 1066 had overthrown these rights and that Magna Carta had been a popular attempt to restore them, making the charter an essential foundation for the contemporary powers of Parliament and legal principles such as habeas corpus.  The 800th anniversary of Magna Carta in 2015 included extensive celebrations and discussions, and the four original 1215 charters were displayed together at the British Library.  None of the original 1215 Magna Carta is currently in force since it has been repealed; however, three clauses of the original charter are enshrined in the 1297 reissued Magna Carta and do still remain in force in England and Wales.  The United States Constitution utilized many concepts from the Magna Carta for its individuals rights encoded in the document.

We watch several short videos about the history of MAGNA CARTA and his significance in world history.
