Law & Literature

(ISSN 1541-2601)

Law and Literature, published triennially and edited by the faculty of the Cardozo School of Law of Yeshiva University and a board of international scholars, is one of only two journals in the country entirely focused on the interdisciplinary movement known as Law and Literature. The movement, which explores law-related literature and the literary value of legal documents, provides a unique perspective on how law and literature are mutually enlightening. Issues in private law and public law, restrictions on creative expression, gender and racial bias, hermeneutics (interpretative methodologies), and legal themes in works of literature are among the journal's regular topics.

Law and Literature was previously published as Cardozo Studies in Law and Literature by the Cardozo School of Law from 1989-2001. Beginning in 2002, the journal appears as Law and Literature and is published by University of California Press.
