1. William Shakespeare, Measure for Measure act 1, sc. 1, 1, 17-20 (G. Blakemore Evans ed., Houghton Mifflin Co. 1974) (1604). Deputation figures prominently in this play: The Duke announces his sabbatical, ostensibly departing the dissolute city but actually lingering incognito to see how his subjects are behaving. He entrusts all his power to a deputy, Angelo, who, it is hoped, will carry out the program of penal reform the Duke is unwilling to enforce himself. So I must also thank William Shakespeare, because it was while sitting through a very long and boring production of his play that I conceived the theory presented in this piece.
