Following the basic presumptions of the early law-as-literature movement, past approaches have mainly focused on textuality and narrativity as the common denominators of law and literature, and have largely ignored the topic of fictionality. This volume provides a much needed analysis of this gap. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book will be of interest to scholars of legal theory, jurisprudence and legal writing, along with literature scholars and students of literature and the humanities.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45241520652439,"sku":"9781032236681","price":3949.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781032236681.webp?v=1769228982","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/fictional-discourse-and-the-law-9781032236681","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
