The English Execution Narrative, 1200–1700, Paperback / softback Book

The English Execution Narrative, 1200–1700 Paperback / softback

Part of the "The Body, Gender and Culture" series

Paperback / softback

Description

Royer examines the changing ritual of execution across five centuries and discovers a shift both in practice and in the message that was sent to the population at large.

She argues that what began as a show of retribution and revenge became a ceremonial portrayal of redemption as the political, religious and cultural landscape of England evolved.
