| How Legal Rhetoric Shapes the Law II - Keynote | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| Description: | Keynote address by Peter Brooks (Yale and Princeton). Professor Brooks is a scholar of narrative theory, co-edited "Law Stories" with Paul Gewirtz a few years ago, and recently has written two provocative pieces: "Narrative Transactions—Does the Law Need a Narratology?" (18 Yale Journal of Law & the Humanities 1) and an opinion piece in the Chronicle of Higher Education entitled "The Ethics of Reading" (Feb. 8, 2008), in which he took on the analysis in the infamous "torture memo." He will speak on "The Ethics of Reading" to kick off a day of discussing how language can be used, interpreted, manipulated to justify violence, and, perhaps, also to combat it. | ||
