"Beginning with the growth of criminal justice in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries - the courts, the judges, their procedures - Dean then turns to issues of judicial corruption which accompanied that growth, and the late-medieval crime waves that followed in the wake of the plague. Subsequent chapters deal with women as both perpetrators and victims of crime, with the persistence of revenge, and with punishment." "Drawing on the real-life stories of ordinary men and women who often found themselves at the sharp end of the law, Crime in Medieval Europe provides a fascinating insight into the history of victims, criminals and their punishment."--Jacket.
