Taking Exception to the Law explores how a range of early modern
English writings responded to injustices perpetrated by legal
procedures, discourses, and institutions. From canonical poems and
plays to crime pamphlets and educational treatises, the essays
engage with the relevance and wide appeal of legal questions in
order to understand how literature operated in the early modern
period. Justice in its many forms - legal, poetic, divine, natural,
and customary - is examined through insightful and innovative
analyses of a number of texts, including The Merchant of Venice,
The Faerie Queene, and Paradise Lost. A major contribution to the
growing field of law and literature, this collection offers
cultural contexts, interpretive insights, and formal implications
for the entire field of English Renaissance culture.
