About the conference:
Literature and Law have been breathing in each other’s frame from the very beginning destined to meet as distinct entities with overlapping scope. Indeed, they speak to each other, and speak of each other, in ways that suggest a knowing commonality. The harmony between literature and
law is yet to be defined in a broader context. The exact nature of the relationship between law and literature, however, with all its social and political complexities, remains like unanswered questions inviting multiple
interpretations.
The International Conference on Literature and Law aims to open up the field of Law and Literature by bringing together writers, social scientists, musicians, artists, poets, and law researchers to explore the integrated space and study the nature, impacts and prospective future it exhibits. The
relationship between Law and Literature is an important and less explored one and the Conference seeks to inspire extensive deliberation.
This conference brings scholars of Literature and Law into an interdisciplinary setting to share their research. We invite proposals for papers and panels that address topics related to cultural, literary and legal aspects while encompassing the theme of this year’s conference,
“Literature Epitomizing Society and Justice.” While the focus is primarily on the inextricable relation between Literature and Law, the organizers would welcome comparative papers as well. We welcome papers from academicians, lawyers and literary scholars with novel and innovative research objectives.
