This volume examines the nature, function, development and epistemological assumptions of the Legal case in an interdisciplinary context. Using the question of 'reading' as a guiding principle, it opens up new ways of understanding case law and the doctrine of precedent by bringing the law into dialogue with the humanities. What happens when a Legal case is read not only by lawyers, but by literary critics, by linguists, by philosophers, or by historians? How do film makers and writers adapt and transform Legal cases in their work? How might one interpret fiction in the context of the historical development of the common law? The essays in this volume test the boundaries of the Legal case as a genre by inviting perspectives from other disciplines, and in doing so also raise more fundamental questions of what constitutes law and Legal thinking. This book will be of interest to anyone seeking a better understanding of the common law, the humanities, and the intersection between them.

From a master teacher, a results-oriented approach to powerful Legal writing that communicates, that persuades--and that wins. Of all the professions, the law has the most deserved reputation for opaque, jargon-clogged writing. Legal education, which focuses on judicial opinions, not instruments of persuasion, is partly to blame. Yet forceful writing is one of the most potent weapons of Legal advocacy. In Writing to Win, Steve Stark, a former teacher of writing at Harvard Law, who has taught thousands of aspiring and practicing lawyers, has written the only book on the market that applies the universal principles of vigorous prose to the job of making a case--and winning it. Writing to Winfocuses on the writing of lawyers, not judges, and includes dozens of examples of effective (and ineffective) real-life writing--as well as models drawn from advertising, journalism, and fiction. It deals with the problems lawyers face in writing, from organization to strengthening and editing prose; teaches ways of improving arguments; addresses litigation and technical writing in all its forms; and covers the writing attorneys must perform in their practice, from memos and letters to briefs and contracts. Each chapter opens with a succinct set of rules for easy reference. No other Legal writing book on the market is as practical, as focused on results, as well written as Writing to Win.

In the critical period when Islamic law first developed, a new breed of jurists developed a genre of Legal theory treatises to explore how the fundamental moral teachings of Islam might operate as a Legal system. Seemingly rhetorical and formulaic, these manuals have long been overlooked for the insight they offer into the early formation of Islamic conceptions of law and its role in social life.In this book, Rumee Ahmed shatters the prevailing misconceptions of the purpose and form of the Islamic Legal treatise. Ahmed describes how Muslim jurists used the genre of Legal theory to argue for individualized, highly creative narratives about the application of Islamic law while demonstrating loyalty to inherited principles and general prohibitions. These narratives are revealed through careful attention to the nuanced way in which Legal theorists defined terms and concepts particular tothe Legal theory genre, and developed pictures of multiple worlds in which Islamic law should ideally function. Ahmed takes the reader into the logic of Islamic Legal theory to uncover diverse conceptions of law and Legal application in the Islamic tradition, clarifying and making accessible thesometimes obscure Legal theories of central figures in the history of Islamic law. The book offers important insights about the ways in which Legal philosophy and theology mutually influenced premodern jurists as they formulated their respective visions of law, ethics, and theology.The volume is the first in the Oxford Islamic Legal Studies series. Satisfying the growing interest in Islam and Islamic law, the series speaks to both specialists and those interested in the study of a Legal tradition that shapes lives and societies across the globe. The series features innovative and interdisciplinary studies that explore Islamic law as it operates in shaping private decision making, binding communities, and as domestic positive law. The series also sheds new lighton the history and jurisprudence of Islamic law and provides for a richer understanding of the state of Islamic law in the contemporary Muslim world, including parts of the world where Muslims are minorities.
