LAW-6422 LAW AND LITERATURE SEMINAR
We know lawyers spend a great deal of time conveying ideas to others orally and in writing. Studying how good storytellers tell stories and how good writers write can help students improve their writing and general language skills. In addition, some may become interested in intellectual property and may become directly involved with authors, actors, literature, drama, movies, television, or other artistic nexus. Beginning to connect law and literature today may ease their transition to practice. It is a premise of this class that reading and discussing literature improves skills that demand an understanding of human motivation, character, performance, and language; all skills lawyers need to hone.
