Annotation: Shakespeare's legal references and allusions constitute a complete catalogue of the substantive, social, institutional, and "professional" concerns of early modern English law. This encyclopaedia-style dictionary explores a wide range of formal, technical, historical, rhetorical and artistic issues, while maintaining regard for the fact that matters of social history cannot be ignored in discussions of either theater or law. New perspectives and questions are revealed concerning Shakespearean drama, early modern social life, legal thought, and their interactions.
