Representing Justice: Stories of Law and LiteratureRepresenting Justice: Stories of Law and Literature

This 24-lecture course offers a wide-ranging analysis of the relationship between law and literature by examining representative moments in the long history of these two interwoven ways of ordering the world, both representations of culture through language, image, symbol systems, and action.
Great literature can be the means of understanding as well as creating our world—by teaching and reinforcing societys laws, articulating its values, and enforcing the social contracts that unite us as a culture.

Space and the ‘March of Mind’ - Literature and the Physical Sciences in Britain, 1815–1850Space and the ‘March of Mind’ - Literature and the Physical Sciences in Britain, 1815–1850

This book is about the idea of space in the first half of the nineteenth century. It uses contemporary poetry, essays, and fiction as well as scientific papers, textbooks, and journalism to give a new account of nineteenth-century literature's relationship with science. In particular it brings the physical sciences--physics and chemistry--more accessibly and fully into the arena of literary criticism than has been the case until now.
