Criminal Shakespeares examines a range of subjects across time, from true-crime narratives of Shakespeare's day to the lives of sex-workers in the 16th century to news reports of 19th-century train robbers, as well as the ethical implications of showcasing Shakespeare in incarcerated classrooms. By considering representations of crime across eras, this collection revisits conversations about cultural power with an eye towards genre and the destabilization in our contemporary moment.
