Writerly Hate in Eighteenth-Century Britain

Thomas Leonard-Roy explores the writings of six canonical authors--Alexander Pope, Samuel Johnson, James Boswell, Horace Walpole, Frances Burney, and Lord Byron--to illuminate the ways in which hatred became a particularly vital and animating emotion in eighteenth-century literature, partly as a result of the burgeoning print market of the period.

Revenge in Seneca's Tragedies

A comprehensive investigation of revenge in Senecan tragedy that argues that it is primarily through the revenge of female characters that Seneca interrogates the boundary between proportionate and excessive revenge and explores the problems inherent in like-for-like violence.

Law as Performance

Explores the history of legal theatricality from antiquity to the eighteenth-century. It recovers a long tradition of jurisprudential thought about law as a form of theatre, a tradition that ancient, medieval, early modern, and later theorists transmitted across centuries, continually elaborating and reworking it to suit changing conditions.
