IVR conference 2013

Description

Since its dawn Law and Literature studies have offered a comprehension of Law through the analysis of Law in Literature as well as the analysis of Law as Literature. In many countries, such as Brazil, Italy, Nederland, United States and Belgium, these studies have reached a so developed stage that graduation Law schools have offered disciplines and seminaries which deal with this kind of subject. A specific research on Law as Literature can be found on Narratology and investigates the relation between memory and oblivion in novels, as well as in Law. To which extent do the rules and judicial decisions represent the memory of a nation? And to which extent can the establishing power of Law break with the Past and relegate it to oblivion? Can Law be understood as a narrative of one nation history? This special Workshop, now with the support of the ISLL, and in its second edition, intends to deal with this kind of subjects.
