The Legacy of Magna Carta in Australia

The Legacy of Magna Carta in Australia

The Magna Carta is the most famous and important document in the history of the English-speaking world. Heard of by most, but read by few, it is handwritten in medieval Latin on untanned animal skin. How it survived is a wonder, and survived it has for nearly 800 years, not simply as a historical document, but relevant in everyday life
