"This book delves into the archives of London's Bridewell to show how humanist reformers provided the ideas, justifications, and administration for England's houses of correction, early workhouses, and so-called "Literary worke-houses," even as repeated scandals and outcry made it increasingly clear that these coercive institutions would forever be at odds with the ideals and norms of humanist culture"--Publisher's description.
