Law is not only conveyed in codified clauses; it is often featured
as a pivotal topic in literary texts. Existing legal relationships
can determine the historical or the fictive setting of a drama or a
plot, narratives can propagate laws or demonstrate their inherent
problems. Literature can be used as an integral part of a strategy
to implement legally justified demands, it can aim at correcting or
even at denouncing legal rules. The authors of this volume examine
literary and functional texts from the bible, the Ancient Near
East, early Judaism and classical antiquity. They choose from the
fields of constitutional law, litigation, family law, property and
inheritance law, damages, punishment, privilege and maintenance.
