In July 2007, the School of Law at the University of Warwick hosted
an international conference on 'Shakespeare and the Law'. This was
a truly interdisciplinary event, which included contributions from
eminent speakers in the fields of English, history, theatre and
law. The intention was to provide a congenial forum for the
exploration, dissemination and discussion of Shakespeare's evident
fascination with and knowledge of law, and its manifestation in his
works. The papers included in this volume reflect the diverse
academic interests of participants at the conference. The eclectic
themes of the edited collection range from analyses of the juristic
content of specific plays, as in 'Consideration, Contract and the
End of The Comedy of Errors', 'Judging Isabella: Justice, Care and
Relationships in Measure for Measure', 'Law and its Subversion in
Romeo and Juliet', 'Inheritance in the Legal and Ideological Debate
of Shakespeare's King Lear' and 'The Law of Dramatic Properties in
The Merchant of Venice', to more general explorations of
Shakespearean jurisprudence, including 'Shakespeare and Specific
Performance', 'Shakespeare and the Marriage Contract', 'The Tragedy
of Law in Shakespearean Romance' and 'Punishment Theory in the
Renaissance: the Law and the Drama'.
