Abstract: | Law in Shakespeare's life and career -- General patterns -- Case study : The merchant of Venice -- Case study : Measure for measure -- Seven short readings of non-Shakespearean early-modern plays -- Shakespeare and law now "Shakespeare's Law is a reading of law and legal issues within the works of William Shakespeare. Mark Fortier argues that Shakespeare's attitudes to law are complex and not always sanguine, that there exists a deep and perhaps ultimate rejection of law, an antinomian streak, very different from what a lawyer or legal scholar might espouse. Fortier looks in detail at the legal issues most prominent across Shakespeare's work: property, inheritance, status, identity theft, contract, marriage, tort (especially slander), evidence, crime, and political authority. He also includes three detailed case studies of The Merchant of Venice, Measure for Measure, and Hamlet as well as a chapter looking at law in the work of Shakespeare's contemporaries. The book shows that the central issues of Shakespeare's time are similar to those we have today, therefore the exploration of law in Shakespeare is as germane today as in the past"-- |

Shakespeare’s Law Shakespeare’s Law is a critical overview of law and legal issues within the life, career, and works of William Shakespeare as well as those that arise from the endless array of activities that happen today in the name of Shakespeare. Mark Fortier argues that Shakespeare’s attitudes to law are complex and not always sanguine, that there exists a deep and perhaps ultimate move beyond law very different from what a lawyer or legal scholar might recognize. Fortier looks in detail at the legal issues most prominent across Shakespeare’s work: status, inheritance, fraud, property, contract, tort (especially slander), evidence, crime, political authority, trials, and the relative value of law and justice. He also includes two detailed case studies, of The Merchant of Venice and Measure for Measure, as well as a chapter looking at law in works by Shakespeare’s contemporaries. The book concludes with a chapter on the law as it relates to Shakespeare today. The book shows that the legal issues in Shakespeare are often relevant to issues we face now, and the exploration of law in Shakespeare is as germane today, though in sometimes new ways, as in the past.
