Course Description

In the first half of the course, we read literature through texts drawn from two areas of substantive law: torts and immigration. In the second half of the course, we move away from these legal frameworks, and read cases and texts selected with recourse to a set of concepts that originate in literature and literary criticism. We will consider how legal storytelling sometimes subverts narrative forms and patterns to innovative ends.
