The relationship between law and terrorism has re-emerged recently
as a pressing issue in contemporary jurisprudence. Terrorism
appears to take law to its limit, whilst the demands of
counter-terrorism hold the cause of justice in contempt. At this
point the case for engaging alternative intellectual approaches and
resources is compelling. Ian Ward argues that through a closer
appreciation of the ethical and aesthetical dimensions of terror,
as well as the historical, political and cultural, we can better
comprehend modern expressions and experiences of terrorism. For
this reason, alongside juristic responses to modern expressions of
terrorism, Law, Text, Terror examines a variety of supplementary
literary texts as well as alternative intellectual approaches; from
the drama of Euripides and Shakespeare, to the rhetoric and poetry
of Burke and Shelley, the literary feminisms of Lessing and Rame,
and the narrative existentialism of Conrad, Coetzee, Dostoevsky and
DeLillo.
