Full Description
This interdisciplinary book looks at art and especially literature in juxtaposition with law and speculates how the two disciplines approach, in their separate but inter-related ways, the notions of good and evil. Full of detail, it examines how the two disciplines deal with these notions, why the evil-doer is often aggrandized in literature but is debased in real life and how good and evil change with time.
