Positive Representation of Inns of Court Lawyers in Jacobean City Comedy Positive representation of Inns of Court lawyers in Jacobean city comedy A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by David Westlake English, School of Arts, Brunel University November 2009 i Abstract _____________________________________________________________________ This thesis examines representations of lawyers and law in examples of Jacobean city comedy, taking into account certain contemporary developments in the legal profession and the law in England. The period covered is 1598-1616. The thesis questions the conventional interpretation of city comedy as hostile to the legal profession. It suggests the topic is more complex than has been assumed, arguing that city comedy makes direct and indirect positive representation of Inns of Court lawyers, who are to be distinguished from attorneys (newly segregated in the Inns of Chancery), amateur quasi-lawyers, and university-educated civil lawyers. It is proposed that city comedy represents Inns of Court lawyers positively in two ways. Firstly, by means of legal content: representations of developments in the profession and the law demonstrate a wish to connect with the young lawyers and students of the Inns of Court, and reflect a contemporary drive by them for increased organization and regulation. Secondly, by means of literary form: ostensibly pejorative representations need not be taken at face value; instead, they may be found to be ironic. The main proposed contributions to knowledge are: that Inns of Court lawyers were a favoured part of the target audience of the private playhouses, making it questionable that they would be represented negatively in city comedy; that lawyers as represented in city comedy are not a single or a simple category; that representation of lawyers is inflected by the various forms and impulses of city comedy; and that city comedy incorporates some reflection of the increasing professionalization of legal practice in the period. ii Contents _____________________________________________________________________ Abstract i Contents ii Acknowledgements v Abbreviations vi 1.

I regard the material duration of the genre as being from 1598 to 1616.1 This compact lifespan coincides with some notable developments in English law, and comes at the height of a period of profession-defining change in London’s Inns of Court. I examine five plays: Jonson’s Poetaster (1601), Middleton’s The Phoenix (1603-4) and Michaelmas Term (1606), John Day’s Law Tricks (1604), and Lording Barry’s Ram Alley (1607-8). My central argument is that the attitude taken in the plays to lawyers and law is more complex than has previously been assumed. It is, I contend, often deceptively positive. Positive representation of lawyers in city comedy is an idea contrary to prevailing opinion, which says in general terms that the genre is hostile to the legal profession and the law.2 I propose that the plays take a positive attitude to lawyers and law essentially on account of three points. 1 1598 for the first performance of the original version of Every Man in His Humour; Brian Gibbons deems The Devil is an Ass (1616) the terminal point in the genre in Jacobean City Comedy: A Study of Satiric Plays by Jonson, Marston and Middleton, 2nd ed. (London: Methuen, 1980), 152. Dates relate usually to first performance rather than time of original composition or publication. Unless otherwise indicated, the source for dates is Andrew Gurr, The Shakespearean Stage 1574-1642, 4th ed. (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2009), 286-98. 2 Gibbons says that city comedy features “dishonest and ruthless” lawyers, and displays “increasing ambivalence of attitude towards [lawyers’] methods and appetites”: Jacobean City Comedy, 118-19. 2 The first point is commercial consideration. These plays were written for performance before an audience including Inns of Court men, so it is questionable that the plays should unambiguously undermine this desired section of their audience. The second point is legal content. I argue that the plays incorporate reflections of contemporary legal developments in a way that would appeal to Inns of Court lawyers. Barry’s Ram Alley provides possibly the most straightforward example of how what appears to be a broadly negative representation of lawyers becomes positive in relation specifically to Inns of Court lawyers. The play contains allusions to the newly enforced division between the Inns of Court and the Inns of Chancery. The lawyer-figure, Throte, is an Inns of Chancery man, and Barry has the character declare to the audience that he only seems a lawyer, implying that it is the Inns of Court which produce superior, so-to-speak real lawyers – a sentiment that could be Tom Cain affirms the conventional view of anti-lawyer sentiment in his edition of Poetaster (Manchester: Manchester University Press, 1995), 45. Gail Kern Paster perpetuates the standard view of Michaelmas Term’s Induction as a “sharp satire against the law as a mercenary system run for its own benefit” in her edition of Middleton’s play (Manchester: Manchester University Press, 2000), 57. See also Alan Brissenden, “Middletonian Families,” in Plotting Early Modern London: New Essays on Jacobean City Comedy, ed. Dieter Mehl, Angela Stock, and Anne-Julia Zwierlein (Aldershot: Ashgate, 2004), 29; C. W. Brooks, Pettyfoggers and Vipers of the Commonwealth (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1986), 134; Daniel B. Dodson, “Thomas Middleton’s City Comedies” (Ph.D. dissertation, Columbia University, 1954), 95; G. Blakemore Evans, Elizabethan-Jacobean Drama (London: A. & C.

The increased determination of the members of the Inns of Courts to stand apart (and to be seen to stand apart) from the Inns of Chancery is only one example of divisions within the legal profession. The word “lawyer” had anything but a univocal, vocationally unified meaning, and lawyers in the plays are not a single or a simple category. To speak against one type on the stage would have been to find favour with another. The third point is literary form. I propose that representation of lawyers in the plays is inescapably the product of various devices and attitudes which are conventional in city comedy. For example, I show how some ostensibly pejorative representations may be taken to be ironic. The self-consciously sophisticated and ambitious writers of the plays would not have been content merely to perpetuate a predictable literary tradition without adding some twist.

  • Student Days at the Inns of Court
    STUDENT DAYS AT THE INNS OF COURT.* Fortescue tells us that when King John fixed the Court of Common Pleas at Westminster, the professors of the municipal law who heretofore had been scattered about the kingdom formed themselves into an aggregate body "wholly addicted to the study of the law." This body, having been excluded from Oxford and Cambridge where the civil and canon laws alone were taught, found it necessary to establish a university of its own. This it did by purchasing at various times certain houses between the City of Westminster, where the King's courts were held, and the City of London, where they could obtain their provisions. The nearest of these institutions to the City of London was the Temple. Passing through Ludgate, one came to the bridge over the Fleet Brook and continued down Fleet Street a short distance to Temple Bar where were the Middle, Inner and Outer Temples. The grounds of the Temples reached to the bank of the Thames and the barges of royalty were not infrequently seen drawn up to the landing, when kings and queens would honor the Inns with their presence at some of the elaborate revels. For at Westminster was also the Royal Palace and the Abbey, and the Thames was an easy highway from the market houses and busi- ness offices of London to the royal city of Westminster. Passage on land was a far different matter and at first only the clergy dared risk living beyond the gates, and then only in strongly-walled dwellings. St.

To those who early in the war had seen the destruction of these walls and the shattering of the screen and the disappearance of the Minstrels' Gallery; and to those who saw the timbers of the roof ablaze upon a certain -midnight in March 1944, the restoration of Domus must seem something of a miracle. All these things naturally link our thought with the work and the memory of Edmund Plowden who, in the reign of an earlier Queen Elizabeth, devoted his years as Treasurer and as Master of the House to the building of this noble Hall.

Pierre Bourdieu's concepts of cultural production are widened beyond his own French academic context so that the Inns may be located as institutions central to the formation of literary and, in particular, dramatic culture in early modern London. A significant part of Bourdieu's research has concerned the establishment of a foundation for a sociological analysis of literary works. The literary field, Bourdieu argues, is but one of many possible fields of cultural production—social networks of struggle over valued economic, cultural, scientific, or religious resources.

  • Temple Church, Inner Temple Lane, London
    case study 10 Temple Church, Inner Temple Lane, London Norman in origin Church of Inner and Middle Temple, Inns of Court Architect of refurbishment: Christopher Wren (1632–1723) See St Peter Cornhill (CS9) for information on Sir Christopher Wren Historical note The Temple consists of two societies established for the study and practice of law: the Inner Temple and the Middle Temple. Although both communities function separately and have their own buildings on the site, they both use the same church, known as Temple Church, a reference to its Templar origin. The church was “repaired, adorned and beautified at the joynt expense of the two honourable societies” as praised by John Standish in his sermon after the reopening in 1683. The round church is exemplar for the Templars and is Norman in architec- ture, while the choir is early English. The church underwent subsequent re- pairs and escaped destruction in several fires in 1666, 1677, 1678.1 In 1682 the church was beautified according to “The New View of London” following the reconstruction of many city churches after the Great Fire. A negative descrip- tion of the seventeenth-century alterations is given by Thornbury in 1878. In the reign of Charles II the body of the church was filled with formal pews, which concealed the bases of the columns, while the walls were encumbered, to the height of eight feet from the ground, with oak wain- scoting, which was carried entirely around the church, so as to hide the elegant marble piscine, the interesting almeries over the high altar and the sacrarium on the eastern side of the edifice.
