It seems to be a representation of tragic angst, yet a consideration of the context of the speech reveals that {\textquotedblleft}To be, or not to be{\textquotedblright} is actually a satire of philosophy and Shakespeare{\textquoteright}s representation of the theatricality of everyday life.

	abstract = {This article reviews some instances of disability in Shakespeare{\textquoteright}s works and some instances of Disability Studies in Shakespeare studies. Contrary to the claims of the\&nbsp;Disabled Shakespeares\&nbsp;project, there is no historical basis for the modern language of "disability" in Shakespeare{\textquoteright}s texts, as illustrated with a philology of the term; this does not, however, invalidate the viable uses of disability theory in Shakespeare studies. Developing a typology of these uses (historical, methodological, critical, theoretical), this article discusses the opportunities and liabilities of each approach but concludes that a better vocabulary can be found in Erving Goffman{\textquoteright}s theory of\&nbsp;stigma\&nbsp;(which inspired Disability Studies but, in many ways, is more conceptually and ethically buoyant). The main goal in this article is not to argue against a Disability Studies approach to Shakespeare but, instead, to use those readings as evidence of the imperfect even if well-intentioned ways we respond to the encounter with stigma in Shakespeare{\textquoteright}s works {\textendash} a phenomenon of literary criticism that is remarkably resonant with the similarly imperfect even if well-intentioned ways we respond to the encounter with stigma in our everyday lives.},

	abstract = {This essay looks into the past of criminology as a way to think about its future. I take a philological approach to the word\&nbsp;criminology, looking at the etymology and history of that word, to argue for a new definition of the field: Criminology is\&nbsp;the systematic study of crime, criminals, criminal law, criminal justice, and criminalization. I expand and explain this\&nbsp;definition with respect to some common and (I argue) misguided dictates of criminology as it is traditionally understood.\&nbsp;Specifically, I argue that criminology is usually\&nbsp;but not necessarily\&nbsp;academic and scientific, which means that\&nbsp;criminology can be public and/or humanistic. I arrive at these thoughts by presenting some early English instances of the\&nbsp;word\&nbsp;criminology\&nbsp;which predate the attempt to theorize a field of criminology in Italy and France in the 1880s, and I\&nbsp;offer some new readings of those Italian and French texts. These philological analyses then come into conversation with\&nbsp;some twentieth-century attempts to define the field and some twenty-first-century innovations in an effort to generate a\&nbsp;definition of criminology that is responsive to the diversity of criminology in both its original formation and its ongoing\&nbsp;transformations. Thus, the virtue of this new understanding of criminology is its inclusiveness: It normalizes unorthodox\&nbsp;criminological research, which opens up new possibilities for jobs and funding in the name of criminology, which holds\&nbsp;the promise of new perspectives on crime, new theories of criminology, and new policies for prevention and treatment.},

This paper suggests that Shakespeare{\textquoteright}s plays offer an embryonic version of criminology, and that they remain a valuable resource for the field, both a theoretical and a pedagogical resource. On the one hand, for criminology scholars, Shakespeare can open up new avenues of theoretical consideration, for the criminal events depicted in his plays reflect complex philosophical debates about crime and justice, making interpretations of those events inherently theoretical; reading a passage from Shakespeare can be the first step in building a new theory of criminology. On the other hand, for criminology students, Shakespeare can initiate and sustain an intellectual transition that is fundamental to their professionalization, namely the transition from what I call a {\textquotedblleft}simplistic{\textquotedblright} to a {\textquotedblleft}skeptical{\textquotedblright} model of criminology. For this reason, I recommend that criminologists try what the Shakespearean scholar Julia Reinhard Lupton has called {\textquotedblleft}thinking with Shakespeare.{\textquotedblright} Thinking with Shakespeare is particularly valuable for criminologists because Shakespeare coded ancient philosophical ideas about crime and justice into the words and deeds of his characters: interpreting the drama takes us into the philosophy, and the philosophy provides us with the conceptual equipment for a better criminology.
