Also available as:

The modern prison is commonly thought to be the fruit of an Enlightenment penology that stressed man's ability to reform his soul. This book challenges this view by tracing the institution's emergence to a much earlier period beginning in the late thirteenth century, and provides a view of medieval prison life.
