Lorna Hutson argues that changes in the English justice system in the sixteenth century towards greater participation (by JPs and jurors) had a decisive impact on English Renaissance drama. Her nuanced and closely researched book sheds new light on much of what we take for granted about character and plot in Shakespearean drama.
