Explores the relationship of law and literature, focusing in particular on the portrayal of law, lawyers, and legal proceedings in selected essays, plays, short stories and novels. How and why is the understanding of justice different in literature than it is in the conventional legal discourse? This information has been collected for the Post-Discipline Online Syllabus Database. The database explores the use of literature by schools of professional education in North America. It forms part of a larger project titled Post-Discipline: Literature, Professionalism, and the Crisis of the Humanities, led by Dr Merve Emre with the assistance of Dr Hayley G. Toth. You can find more information about the project at https://postdiscipline.english.ox.ac.uk/. Data was collected and accurate in 2021/22.
