This book offers educational experiences, including reflections and
the resulting essays, from the Roberta Kevelson Seminar on Law and
Semiotics held during 2008 - 2011 at Penn State University's
Dickinson School of Law. The texts address educational aspects of
law that require attention and that also are issues in traditional
jurisprudence and legal theory. The book introduces education in
legal semiotics as it evolves in a legal curriculum. Specific
semiotic concepts, such as "sign", "symbol" or "legal language,"
demonstrate how a lawyer's professionally important tasks of
name-giving and meaning-giving are seldom completely understood by
lawyers or laypeople. These concepts require analyses of
considerable depth to understand the expressiveness of these legal
names and meanings, and to understand how lawyers can "say the
law," or urge such a saying correctly and effectively in the
context of a natural language that is understandable to all of us.
The book brings together the structure of the Seminar, its
foundational philosophical problems, the specifics of legal
history, and the semiotics of the legal system with specific themes
such as gender, family law, and business law.
