Modus Tenendi Parliamentum
The ''Modus Tenendi Parliamentum'' ((英語:Method of Holding Parliaments)) is a 14th-century document that outlined an idealised version of English parliamentary procedure. Part of its significance lies in its very title: parliament was now "seen as both institutionally well defined and a proper subject for description and conscious reflection".〔Maddicott 2010, p. 277〕 However, it also includes elements of fantasy, both in relation to the way it sets out the history of parliaments, and its aspirations for the roles of different groups in parliament.〔Maddicott 2010, p. 365〕
==Provenance==
An ancient document which has exercised much debate over its antiquity and authorship, the ''Modus'' is no longer seen as a later forgery, despite the doubts of earlier antiquaries, such as John Selden (1584–1654) and William Prynne (1600–1669). Thomas Duffus Hardy (1804–78) was a prominent historian and archivist, whose final position was senior assistant keeper of the Public Record Office. He edited the most complete version of the volume in 1846, and believed it was probably written "some time between the years 1294 and 1327", at or shortly after Edward I's Model Parliament of 1295.〔Hardy 1846, p.xvii〕 Writing in 1934, William A Morris reviewed the conflicting views on the date of the ''Modus'' that were first offered in the seventeenth century and concluded that it must have been written during the reign of Edward II (1307-27), probably 1321. V. M. Clarke says the book "was written in 1322 in order to expound and define the parliamentary theory and practice upheld by moderate men of that time".〔; quoted in Galbraith 1953, p. 84〕 That view on the date is also supported by Weber. References within the ''Modus'' suggest that the writer had experience of parliament, as well as an understanding of the royal administration. V. H. Galbraith believed that someone who had such experience was the Yorkshireman, William Ayermin (also Airmyn, or Ayreminne) (died 1336).〔Galbraith 1953, p.90〕 Ayermin held a number of offices in the church and royal administration, including being Keeper of the Rolls of Chancery from 1316–24 and almost certainly also clerk of the parliament.〔 and Galbraith 1953〕
