Abstract
"Last year Mr. Polak made a lively contribution to the season's literature with his Legal Fictions drawn from the stories of classical mythology. In this companion volume the cases are culled from the plays of Shakespeare, whose familiar characters make their appearance in the modern courts. In the judgements the author neatly parodies the modern judicial idiom and reproduces the features which made the original work such a success." - Cover
