This volume gathers a collection of the most seminal essays written
by leading experts in the fields of law, and cultural studies,
which address the cultural dimension of trials. Taken together,
these essays conceive of trials as sites of legal performance and
as critical public spaces in which the law both encounters and
interacts dialogically with the culture in which it is embedded.
Inquiring into the contours of that dialogic relation, these essays
trace the paths of cultural stories as they circulate in and
through trial settings, examine how trials emerge out of particular
social and historical contexts, and suggest ways in which trials
themselves, as both singular events and generic forms, circulate
and signify in culture.
