Ren Pepitone is Assistant Professor of History at New York University, with particular research interests in the history of gender and sexuality and modern Britain and its empire.
'A brilliant guide to the ribald, matey, precedent-obsessed world of British barristers. This is the history of how white male privilege gets perpetuated, and why the status quo is never an accident. Pepitone forensically unpacks the Inns of Court across the Victorian to mid-twentieth century era, and sheds light on the very heart of the British imperial establishment.' Lucy Delap, Murray Edwards College, University of Cambridge 'With careful research, an impressive grounding in existing scholarship, and great clarity, Ren Pepitone beautifully illustrates the ways in which the Inns of Court not only cultivated a certain brand of professional gentlemanliness but simultaneously balanced a reverence for history with a sometimes-ambivalent embrace of modernity in a changing Britain.' Paul Deslandes, The University of Vermont
