Infos

The Elgar Concise Encyclopedia of Law and Literature surveys the intersection between two important fields of study. Interdisciplinary in scope, the volume showcases the many ways in which literary and legal methods and insights both converge and remain distinct.Written by an international collective of expert contributors, the Encyclopedia brings together a wide variety of perspectives on the diverse legal and literary traditions. Entries balance history, theory, criticism, and traditional legal categories such as defamation, equity, evidence, and trials. Topics covered include recognised areas of law such as blackmail, felonies, wills, and literature such as gothic fiction, satire, and tragedy. Recent and emerging topics include environmental personhood, Undocu Literature, and Black Lives Matter poetry.This Encyclopedia is an invaluable resource for law students, researchers and scholars working in law or literature as separate disciplines, and in the increasingly important interdisciplinary space of law and literature.Over 130 wide-ranging entriesWritten in an engaging and accessible styleIndividual bibliographies for further readingEntries by both established and emerging scholars
