This volume approaches the play from four declared positions within literary criticism (performance study; new historicist feminism; reader response and Foucaultian). It illustrates how complex critical theories might affect critical practice in detail, and illuminates both Measure for Measure and the theories themselves. The spread of perspectives has been carefully chosen with modern cultural and critical concerns in mind.

Drama
Shakespeare's Measure for Measure centers around the fate of Claudio, who is arrested by Lord Angelo, the temporary leader of Vienna. Angelo is left in charge by the Duke, who pretends to leave town but instead dresses as a friar to observe the goings-on in his absence. Angelo is strict, moralistic, and unwavering in his decision-making; he decides that there is too much freedom in Vienna and takes it upon himself to rid the city of brothels and unlawful sexual activity. Laws against these behaviors and institutions already exist, and Angelo simply decides to enforce them more strictly. Claudio is arrested for impregnating Juliet, his lover, before they were married. Although they were engaged and their sexual intercourse was consensual, Claudio is sentenced to death in order to serve as an example to the other Viennese citizens. -- from Sparknotes.
