Description

Law and literature (and why it matters) In Mark Sanders's illuminating analysis of testimony provided before the South African Truth and Reconciliation Commission, he reflects that "[l]aw's relation to literature ... is not one of opposition but of interdependence. In order to be law, law engages, and engages with, cultural explanation, linguistic idiom, and even literary form" (2007: 9). Law is a genre of literature, a discursive regime, mediated through textuality. And literature is law-bound, governed by laws, as Jacques Derrida reminds us: "the legal personality of the text, its identity, its unicity, its rights, and so on" are "guaranteed by law, by a set of legal acts" (1992: 185).
