CFP: Justice, Law, and Literature in the Middle Ages

Justice, Law, and Literature in the Middle Ages

How are questions of law and justice treated in philosophical,
theological, legal, historical, and literary texts, as well as in the
arts? Questions such as these lend themselves to an interdisciplinary
approach that examines how competing and/or complementary texts, genres,
and values contriubted to the formation of basic concepts of law and
justice, such as fairness, legitimacy, criminality, and individual and
social welfare.

Proposals for 20-minute presentations, accompanied by the Congress
participant information form (see attachment), may be submitted to
Toy-Fung Tung (ttung@jjay.cuny.edu) or Alison Ganze
(alison.ganze@wku.edu) no later than September 15.
