Abstract
This article considers various fraud-related misdemeanours in English criminal law. Based on extensive archival research, it discusses a set of prosecutions by the Attorneys-General in seventeenth-century England in Star Chamber and King’s Bench in order to understand the use and meaning of the concepts of fraud and dishonesty in the early modern period.
