Law and literature

The outer archives are busy

by Karen-Margrethe Simonsen, Ditlev Tamm

About this book

How do we read the law and what images of law do we find in literary texts? What happens when literary and legal scholars respectively read and interpret the law in literary texts? And what role does narration play in the cultural understanding of law? In this book lawyers and literary scholars are brought together in a common discussion of texts by Shakespeare, Camus and Katherine Ann Porter and of narrations about human rights. The essays are written by a number of literary and legal scholars. All are pioneers within the law and literature movement respectively in USA. The Netherlands, Denmark, Sweden and Norway. -- P. [4] of cover.
