Convention Parliament (1660) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Convention Parliament (England) A Convention Parliament is a parliament in English history which, owing to an abeyance of the Crown, assembled without formal summons by the Sovereign. Sir William Blackstone applied the term to only two English Parliaments those of 1660 and 1689, but some sources have also applied the name to the parliament of 1399. ==Features of the convention parliaments==
Blackstone points out that the 1689 parliament had to assemble without a royal writ, because the throne was vacant, and no legally summoned parliament could ever be assembled again unless a Convention Parliament met to settle the issue of government. Between 1660 and 1689 the meaning of the word Convention underwent a revision. In 1660 the word was seen as pejorative with overtones of irregularity, but after the convening of the 1689 parliament some started to see this as a virtue, "a voice of liberty".
