The English were punished in many different ways in the five
centuries after 1500. This collection stretches from whipping to
the gallows, and from the first houses of correction to
penitentiaries. Punishment provides a striking way to examine the
development of culture and society through time. These studies of
penal practice explore violence, cruelty and shame, while offering
challenging new perspectives on the timing of the decline of public
punishment, the rise of imprisonment and reforms of the capital
code.
