Textual Jurisprudence and Pedagogy
1989 - 1995
The period treats law as text and discourse rather than mere rule-following, with postmodern jurisprudence and law-and-literature research analyzing how language, style, and narrative structures shape legal meaning and interpretation. Interdisciplinary legal study integrates behavioral sciences, empirical social science, and education-centered approaches to teach argumentation and analyze case-based reasoning. Reflections on professional identity, ethics, law school culture, and public responsibility become central to the study and practice of law, alongside ongoing histories and theories of jurisprudence.
