Book Synopsis Law and Literature by : Lenora Ledwon
Download or read book Law and Literature written by Lenora Ledwon and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-06-03 with total page 518 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1996. The first anthology of its kind in this dynamic new field of study, this volume offers students the best of both worlds-theory and literature. Organized around specific themes to facilitate use of the text in a variety of courses, the material is highly accessible to undergraduates and is suitable as well for graduate students and law students. The anthology includes important articles by key figures in the law and literature debate, and presents seven thematically arranged sections that: Survey the various theoretical perspectives that inform the relationship of law and literature Examine the interplay of ethics, law, and justice * Highlight the great scope and variety of the law's contributions to the creation of a world view * Illustrate various legal approaches to punishment * Detail and analyze the law's inherent capacity for the oppression of individuals and groups * Demonstrate that law is grounded in language and storytelling * Show that despite its solemnity, the law has a comic side Each section includes excerpts from poetry, drama, fiction, and nonfiction. The excerpts include writings addressing the law's impact on the "outsider" (women, Native Americans, Hispanics, African Americans, and homosexuals), as well as writings by lawyers, judges, and law professors, giving the reader an "insider's" view of the legal system. The selections range from Plato to John Barth and Wallace Stevens. At this time of increased interest in the quality of legal writing, this course material illustrates the importance of language, word choice, metaphor, and narrative. It demonstrates the practical application of literary effects, techniques, and devices, and provides valuable insights into law as a vital component of the social fabric. SPECIAL FEATURES All law schools that do not already have one in place are required to institute a course in Law and Literature. This new anthology is the first of its kind, and has been specifically designed to meet the requirements of a Law and Literature course * Selections from judges, lawyers, and professors of law give students an insider's view of the legal system * Chronological coverage-from Plato to such 20th-century writers as John Barth and Wallace Stevens-offers students a broad range of selections that examine the relationship between law, justice, ethics, and literature * Multicultural writings address the law's capacity for the oppression of individuals and groups, including women, Native Americans, African Americans, Hispanics, and homosexuals * Law and punishment-several selections examine this area from various points of view. Suitable for courses in: Law and literature courses in law schools and undergraduate divisions as well as interdisciplinary courses in English literature.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Law and Letters: Essays and Addresses Sir William Blackstone on entering strenuously upon the law bade farewell to the muses in verses of peculiar sadness and melancholy, and never afterwards uttered a note of song. Longfellow, on leaving college, commenced the study of law in his father's office, being already a poet soaring in the high reason of his fancies, with his garland and singing robes about him. Happi ly for his genius, and for American literature, he accepted a professorship within one year from the commencement of his legal studies. Richard H.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Law and Letters: Essays and Addresses The profession of the law has been considered inconsistent with and unfavorable to the culture of polite literature. In the general opinion, no place is so abhorrent to the muses. Sir William Blackstone on entering strenuously upon the law bade farewell to the muses in verses of peculiar sadness and melancholy, and never afterwards uttered a note of song. Longfellow, on leaving college, commenced the study of law in his father's office, being already "a poet soaring in the high reason of his fancies, with his garland and singing robes about him." Happily for his genius, and for American literature, he accepted a professorship within one year from the commencement of his legal studies. Richard H. Dana, son and grandson and father of very eminent lawyers, became disgusted with the law before admission, and gave the rest of his life to letters. Bryant, after writing Thanatopsis, studied law, was admitted, and endeavored to practice it for several years; but his poetic genius and love of letters led him to abandon the profession altogether.

Book Synopsis History of Law and Other Humanities.Views of the legal world across the time by : Valerio Massimo Minale
Download or read book History of Law and Other Humanities.Views of the legal world across the time written by Valerio Massimo Minale and published by Dykinson S.L.. This book was released on 2019-07-09 with total page 596 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The collection of essays presented here examines the links forged through the ages between the realm of law and the expressions of the humanistic culture.We collected thirty-five essays by international scholars and organized them into sections of ten chapters based around ten different themes. Two main perspectives emerged: in some articles the topic relates to the conventional approach of law and/in humanities (iconography, literature, architecture, cinema, music), other articles are about more traditional connections between fields of knowledge (in particular, philosophy, political experiences, didactics).We decided not to confine authors to one particular methodological framework, preferring instead to promote historiographical openness. Our intention was to create a patchwork of different approaches, with each article drawing on a different area of culture to provide a new angle to the history being told. The variety of authorial nationalities gives the collection a multicultural character and the breadth of the chronological period it deals with from antiquity to the contemporary age adds further depth of insight.As the element that unites the collection is historiographical interpretation, we wanted to bring to the fore its historical depth. Thus for every chapter we organized the articles in chronological order according to the historical context covered.Looking at the final outcome, it was interesting to learn that more often than not the connection between law and humanities is not simply a relation between a specific branch of the law and a single field of the humanities, but rather a relation that could be developed in many directions at once, involving different fields of knowledge, and of arts and popular culture.We are grateful to Luigi Lacchè for his contribution to this collection. His essay outlines the coordinates of the law and humanities world, laying out the instruments necessary for an understanding of the origins of a complex methodology and the different approaches that exist within it.This project is the result of discussions that took place during the XXIII Forum of the Association of Young Legal Historians held in Naples in the spring of 2017. The book was made possible thanks to the advice and support of Cristina Vano.The Editors

Book Synopsis Law, Interpretation and Reality by : P.J. Nerhot

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PATRICKNERHOT Since the two operations overlap each other so much, speaking about fact and interpretation in legal science separately would undoubtedly be highly artificial. To speak about fact in law already brings in the operation we call interpretation. EquaHy, to speak about interpretation is to deal with the method of identifying reality and therefore, in large part, to enter the area of the question of fact. By way of example, Bemard Jackson's text, which we have placed in section 11 of the first part of this volume, could no doubt just as weH have found a horne in section I. This work is aimed at analyzing this interpretation of the operation of identifying fact on the one hand and identifying the meaning of a text on the other. All philosophies of law recognize themselves in the analysis they propose for this interpretation, and we too shall seek in this volume to fumish a few elements of use for this analysis. We wish however to make it clear that our endeavour is addressed not only to legal philosophers: the nature of the interpretive act in legal science is a matter of interest to the legal practitioner too. He will find in these pages, we believe, elements that will serve hirn in rcflcction on his daily work.

Book Synopsis A Critical Introduction to Law and Literature by : Kieran Dolin
Download or read book A Critical Introduction to Law and Literature written by Kieran Dolin and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2007-03-15 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite their apparent separation, law and literature have been closely linked fields throughout history. Linguistic creativity is central to the law, with literary modes such as narrative and metaphor infiltrating legal texts. Equally, legal norms of good and bad conduct, of identity and human responsibility, are reflected or subverted in literature's engagement with questions of law and justice. Law seeks to regulate creative expression, while literary texts critique and sometimes openly resist the law. Kieran Dolin introduces this interdisciplinary field, focusing on the many ways that law and literature have addressed and engaged with each other. He charts the history of the shifting relations between the two disciplines, from the open affiliation between literature and law in the sixteenth-century Inns of Court to the less visible links of contemporary culture. Originally published in 2007, this book provides an accessible guide to one of the most exciting areas of interdisciplinary scholarship.
Book Synopsis Gunslinging justice by : Justin A. Joyce
Download or read book Gunslinging justice written by Justin A. Joyce and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2018-08-20 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a cultural history of the interplay between the Western genre and American gun rights and legal paradigms. From muskets in the hands of landed gentry opposing tyrannical government to hidden pistols kept to ward off potential attackers, the historical development of entwined legal and cultural discourses has sanctified the use of gun violence by private citizens and specified the conditions under which such violence may be legally justified. Gunslinging justice explores how the Western genre has imagined new justifications for gun violence which American law seems ever-eager to adopt.
