Dick the Butcher, a character in Shakespeare’s Henry VI, part 2, urges his fellow conspirators in the Jack Cade rebellion to “kill all the lawyers.” But does that statement reflect Shakespeare’s view toward lawyers? This question must be addressed by examining Dick’s statement in the context of the rebellion as it is presented in the play.
This talk was presented on October 18, 2019, at the SOF Annual Conference at the Mark Twain House and Museum, Hartford, Connecticut.
The late Tom Regnier was an attorney in southern Florida who earned his J.D. summa cum laude at University of Miami School of Law, where he taught for many years as an adjunct professor, and his LL.M. at Columbia Law School, where he was a Harlan F.
