'Like some of the best recent new historicist studies, this book begins with historical investigation, saying a lot that is new and fascinating about the political world of Elizabethan England. Casuistry is acutely analyzed as an instrument of pastoral care, a colonizing agent (i.e., an instrument of social and political control), and an epistemological procedure focusing on the difficult boundary between culpability and innocence. The history in this study is new and compelling. The language of analysis is perceptive and rigorous, based on real learning.' David Bevington, University of Chicago
