Contributors approach the topic from a variety of cultural and theoretical perspectives, covering plays from across Shakespeare's career and from each of the genres in which he wrote. Anchoring the volume are two critical contentions: first, that attending to Shakespeare's treatment of judgment leads to fresh insights about the imaginative relationship between law, theater, and aesthetics in early modern England; and second, that it offers new ways of putting the plays' historical and philosophical contexts into conversation. Taken together, the essays in \u003cem\u003eShakespeare and Judgment\u003c\/em\u003e offer a genuinely new account of the historical and intellectual coordinates of Shakespeare's plays. Building on current work in legal studies, religious studies, theater history, and critical theory, the volume will be of interest to a wide range of scholars working on Shakespeare and early modern drama. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eProvides the first account of the place of judgment in Shakespearean drama\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eOffers a fresh perspective on the imaginative relationship between law, religion, and aesthetics in Shakespeare's plays\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eModels new ways of putting the plays' historical and philosophical contexts into conversation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kevin Curran\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1474413153\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781474413152\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Edinburgh University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/16\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.40h x 6.20w x 0.90d","brand":"Kevin Curran","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43935510429951,"sku":"9781474413152","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_1b7e2249-6b34-4ebb-b0f6-8e7515d5affa.jpg?v=1681420215","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/shakespeare-and-judgment-kevin-curran-9781474413152","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
