"The whole text of the Gottesgnadentum [und widerstandsrecht im früheren mittelalter] incorporating a number of revisions ... supplied by the author himself, together with only about one eighth of the footnotes, is here edited and translated ... [Also] a translation, with some of the footnotes, of very nearly the whole of another of the author's works, his article entitled Recht und verfassung im mittelalter, which appeared in the Historische Zeitschrift in 1919."--Pref.
