The Death of Law and Literature
Paul J. Heald University of Georgia Law School May 20, 2009 UGA Legal Studies Research Paper No. 09-006 Abstract: Thirty years after the publication of James B. White's iconic THE LEGAL IMAGINATION, Law & Literature scholarship has gained no traction in the practice of law. This essay, prompted by a session of teaching Ariel Dorfman's DEATH AND THE MAIDEN to federal judges, explains why our scholarship has no impact, but fiction itself is very influential.
