Jeanne Gaakeer's expertise in legal theory, and her judicial practice in criminal law in a Court of Appeal, are combined to offer a new perspective on law as part of the humanities that will inspire legal professionals, scholars and advanced students of law alike. Judging from Experience develops a humanities-inspired methodology for both the academic interdisciplinary study of law and literature and for legal practice. It proposes that the combination of academic legal theory with judicial practice is central to humanistic jurisprudence and as a training in the conduct of public life. The book addresses judgment and interpretation as a central concern within the field of law, literature and humanities and reflects on interdisciplinary in legal studies against the background of the dispute between the natural sciences and the humanities.
