Akunin’s Winter Queen is a novel written at the very end of the twentieth century but it is about the nineteenth century. Please compare it with the “true” nineteenth-century crime fiction works (in particular Crime and Punishment) we read in terms of how he handles the work of the detectives, the nature of crimes in the nineteenth century, and the role women play.
The large purpose of Sheinin’s Diary of a Criminologist is to evoke trust that you, as readers, should feel when he, a prosecutor, tells you what’s right and what’s wrong in terms of the law and one’s social behavior. Is he successful in establishing this trust with you?

3) A man is remanded in custody charged with the unlawful killing of his girlfriend’s 18-month-old daughter. The chairman of the magistrates says: “we are making an order under section 39 of the children and young persons act that nothing should be published that would identify the child. We do so to preserve the anonymity of other children in the household even though they have no connection with the circumstances of the alleged offences” Is such an order valid? What view has been expressed by High Court Judges? What action would you take if you were sitting on the press bench when this order was made?
