This book draws upon three overlapping bodies of work to generate fresh approaches to the study of crime and criminal justice in Britain and Ireland between 1660 and 1850: the conceptual lens of the 'public sphere', 'performativity' and speech act theory, and the history of the emotions. It opens new perspectives on the theatre of justice.
