07/03/2016 – Carla Faralli, Jeanne Gaakeer, Marcelo Campos Galuppo, M. Paola Mittica and Ana Carolina de Faria Silvestre Rodrigues (Eds.)The Harmonies and Conflicts of Law, Reason, and Emotion: A Literary-Legal Approach. Proceedings of the Special Workshop on ‘Law and Literature’ held at 27th IVR World Conference, Washington, D.C. 27 July-1 August 2015, pp. 144. 
The topic ‘Law and Emotion’ has prompted a collection of papers previously presented in the Special Workshop that the editors co-convened in 2015 in Washington, D.C., on the occasion of the XXVII World Congress of the International Association for the Philosophy of Law and Social Philosophy. Presented as articles in this volume, they explore (at least one of) the topics suggested above and they do so from a variety of theoretical and cultural-disciplinary backgrounds. They find a common ground in the task of reflection on the relationship between law and emotion through the privileged lens of literature. This Special Workshop has made possible a permanent relationship among the European Network for Law and Literature, here represented by Jeanne Gaakeer; the Italian Society for Law and Literature, coordinated by Carla Faralli and M. Paola Mittica; and the research group rooted in Brazil under the guidance of Marcelo Galuppo.

On May 27 and 28, 2009, the Bologna University School of Law hosted the first national convention of the Italian Society for Law and Literature (ISLL), under the title Law and Literature: Research Perspectives. The convention brought together a number of different voices in a milieu of legal scholars (devoted to the philosophy, sociology, and history of law and to comparative law), scholars of letters (Germanists and Italianists), and others whose expertise lies in closely relates areas, such as political philosophy and the study concerned with the way legal themes are represented through channels for the production of popular culture, with a focus on television in particular. So, as much as the event did not represent the full spectrum of interests and perspectives revolving around ISLL, it did give us a definite feel for the rainbow of colors that makes up our multidisciplinary environment. The essays in the proceedings are organized into three parts: Law between Truth and FictionLaw in Literature, and The Antecedents in European Culture.
