I’m happy to announce the subject for this semester’s meeting of our Center’s Reading Group on Law and Religion: Shakespeare’s Measure for Measure. First performed 400 years ago, the play still has the capacity to shock. The questions it poses about political corruption, sexual harassment, and the relationship between law and religion remain relevant today, and the answers are just as elusive.

Please join us on March 26 to discuss this most problematic of Shakespeare’s “problem plays.” As always, we will provide copies of the book ahead of time, so registration is essential. Details are here.
