Reading the passage
The opening gives us three requirements: studying medieval cases, interpreting old Latin maxims, and confronting principles grounded in legal tradition. We need a choice that restates one of those, even if it uses different words.
Working the answers
- A
Histories of English politics aren't listed.
- BCorrect
An episode of litigation is a legal case; the Middle Ages are the medieval period. This restates “study medieval cases.”
- C
Political philosophy isn't one of the required subjects identified here.
- D
Latin maxims don't amount to histories of Roman jurisprudence. Knowing the language of a phrase doesn't establish this different subject of study.
- E
Narrative development enters through Goodrich's literary comparison. It isn't listed as something British law students must study.
