Description

Explore the deep connections between theater, theology, and law in Shakespeare's Curse: The Aporias of Ritual Exclusion in Early Modern Royal Drama. Published by Routledge as part of the Discourses of Law series, this scholarly work examines how the curse represents a foundational, mythical violence embedded within juridical discourse. Through a detailed reading of Richard III, King John, and King Lear, Bjorn Quiring analyzes the persistence of imprecations within the discourses of modernity.
