| 520 | _a"The Saxons in England, Volume 1 (of 2)" by John Mitchell Kemble is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. The work explores the political and social principles that characterized the early English Commonwealth, particularly tracing its developments leading up to the Norman Conquest. Kemble aims to reveal the foundational laws and customs of the Anglo-Saxon forefathers, emphasizing their significance for contemporary society. The opening of the book sets the stage for a detailed exploration of Saxon history, detailing the traditions of the Saxons and their interactions with the native Britons. It discusses the initial settlement of the Anglo-Saxon tribes around the middle of the fifth century, highlighting key figures such as Hengest and the varied narratives surrounding these early invasions. Kemble critiques the historical accounts of the time, suggesting that many are steeped in myth rather than fact, and highlights the need for a critical examination of the traditions versus concrete historical evidence. He emphasizes the importance of this early history in understanding the development of English law and society that continues to influence contemporary governance.
