Descrizione UNSOUND EMPIRE 8211 CIVILIZATION AND
Through homicide cases, Catherine Evans explores insanity in the nineteenth-century British Empire and the history of criminal responsibility. British common law established that only sane, blameworthy acts deserved punishment, but emerging ideas about criminality, race, ethnology, and the mind challenged the principles of justice in the British Empire.
