Penal Practice and Culture, 1500-1900: Punishing the English
Paul Griffiths
The English were punished in many different ways in the five centuries after 1500. These studies of penal practice explore violence, cruelty and shame, while offering challenging new perspectives on the timing of the decline of public punishment, the rise of imprisonment and reforms of the capital code.
