LAW AND LITERATURE – THE CONTRIBUTION OF LORD DENNING
Main Article Content
Abstract
At the beginning of the 21st century an audience consisting mainly of lawyers will not need to be persuaded that the law has a contribution to make to literature or, at any rate, that it has a literature of its own. A hundred years ago it might have been different. The Oxford Book of English Prose, published in 1925, contained extracts from only three reported judgments. By a coincidence, it was in the Yale Review of the same year that Benjamin Cardozo’s Law and Literature first appeared, since when the opinion has been growing, certainly amongst lawyers, that there must be something in it.
