Magna Carta, a unique document that is one of England's many great gifts to the world. Magna Carta is, or is a marker for, one of the greatest innovations in world history. It, like Modus Tennedi Parliamentum, rests upon a common delusion. It's great success was based on failure. Is this a Doctor Who episode or is it history?
Magna Carta provided a constitutional peace that lasted 400 years. The aphorism "few read it, everyone quoted it" is examined and exalted. And the shameful little episode where the future Louis the 8th of France is proclaimed king of England and Pope Innocent III becomes the lord of the King of England is taken out and considered.
Conversation with Camie goes into the notion of an Interdict and its consequences, but from a more modern perspective unfortunately (hey, it's live and immediate feedback).
A Valkyrie Episode.
