Women, Crime, and Character: From Moll Flanders to Tess of the D'Urbervilles - Clarendon Law Lectures
Lacey FBA, Nicola (, Professor of Criminal Law and Legal Theory, London School of Economics and Political Science)
This book draws on law, literature, philosophy and social history to explore fundamental changes in ideas of selfhood, gender and social order in 18th and 19th Century England. Lacey argues that these changes underpinned a radical shift in mechanisms of responsibility-attribution, with decisive implications for the criminalisation of women.
