The Making of Felony Procedure in Middle English Literature

The Making of Felony Procedure in Middle English Literature

Contenu

This book is about felony prosecution in late medieval England, which it argues was shaped by literary and legal ideas. Medieval lawmen found felony distasteful, leaving its definition and prosecution to ordinary people. Wang argues they turned to literary dramatic, and religious sources for their ideas of evidence, proof, and guilt.
