Shakespeares Legal Ecologies
Shakespeare's Legal Ecologies offers the first sustained examination of the relationship between law and selfhood in Shakespeare's work. In the course of these discussions, Curran reveals Shakespeare's distinctly communitarian vision of personal and political experience, the way he regarded living, thinking, and acting in the world as materially and socially embedded practices.At the center of the book is Shakespeare's fascination with questions that are fundamental to both law and philosophy: What are the sources of agency?
