Abstract

The following essay is based on the talk "Law and Literature : Examining the Limited Legal Imagination in the Traditional Legal Canon," delivered at the Fourth Annual Mid-Atlantic People of Color Legal Scholarship Conference at Rutger University-Camden in February. The complete talk will be part of the conference proceedings that are forthcoming from Rutgers University Press
