Abstract

The magna carta is a charter signed by King John in 1215, during the Middle Ages, a period organized around the system of feudalism. This text embodies an enormous advance politically speaking: it is the basis of the whole English institution. Nevertheless, to discuss the significance of such a text, we need to know which events led to its writing. But the main question of this study remains:" What is the place of the magna carta in the political history of Britain?"
This is why we will see, first of all, what the context before the charter is, from a social and a political point of view. Then, we need to study the writing and the content of the text in itself. Lastly, it is important to analyse the consequences of this fundamental law after 1215.
