How did the english bill of rights represent a change from the existing political trends in 17th century europe?

The english bill of rights represent a change from the existing political trends in 17th century europe because : it was issued by the king of England to limit his own power
Before the establishment of the bill of rights, a King of Europe basically has unlimited power and can do everything to his citizens (even killing those who simply displease him)

hope this helps
