Law and literature
María José Falcón y Tella invites us on a fascinating journey through the world of law and literature, travelling through the different eras and meeting eternal and as such current issues such as justice, power, resistance, vengeance, rights, and duties. This is an unending conversation, which brings us back to Sophocles and Dickens, Cervantes and Kafka, Dostoyevsky and Melville, among many others. 0There are many ways to approach the concept of ?Law and Literature?. In the classical manner, the author distinguishes three paths: the Law of Literature, involving a technical approach to the literary theme; Law as Literature, a hermeneutical and rhetorical approach to examining legal texts; and finally, Law in Literature, which is undoubtedly the most fertile and documented perspective (the fundamental part of the work, accorded more time than the others, lies in this direction). This volume offers an introduction to this enormous field of study, which was born in the United States over a century ago and is currently taking root in the European continent.

A Three-Dimensional Theory of Law
What this book intends to do is to study three-dimensionalism (the distinction values-norms-facts) not in what could be called its historical dimension, but in its substantive aspect, as a \"form\" that, when applied to different legal themes, would construct a \"material\" theory of law.
