All societies are constructed based on specific rules norms and laws. Hence all ethics and morality are predicated on perceived right or wrong behavior and much of human culture proves to be the result of a larger discourse on vices and virtues transgression and ideals right and wrong. The topics covered in this volume addressing fundamental concerns of the premodern world deal with allegedly criminal or simply wrong behavior which demanded punishment. Sometimes this affected whole groups of people such as the innocently persecuted Jews sometimes individuals such as violent and evil princes. The issue at stake here embraces all of society since it can only survive if a general framework is observed that is based in some way on justice and peace. But literature and the visual arts provide many examples of open and public protests against wrongdoings ill-conceived ideas and concepts and stark crimes such as theft rape and murder. In fact poetic statements or paintings could carry significant potentials against those who deliberately transgressed moral and ethical norms or who even targeted themselves.
