Why
is this old piece of parchment considered to be such a powerful symbol of our
rights and freedoms? Narrated by Monty Python’s Terry Jones, this animation
takes you back to medieval times, when England under the reign of Bad King
John. It asks why Magna Carta was originally created and what it meant to those
living in the 13th century.
Grateful
thanks to THE BRITISH LIBRARY and YouTube.
