Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Lawyer in Literature Who, that has already made acquaintance with these characters of the law in Dickens and the rest, will not take pleasure in comparing notes upon them with Judge Gest? Who, that has his favorites and his aversions among them, will not be interested in the author's new points of view, his fuller survey, his keen judgment, his trenchant wit, his generous sympathies, his illuminat ing comments? And yet a main use of the book ought to be to send those readers to the originals who have never been there. Can a lawyer I mean one of self-respect, of aspiration, of devotion to his art and science, - can he afford to ignore his profession as it is glassed in the literature of life? Why should a lawyer, as a lawyer, be familiar with literature, particularly the literature of the novelists? Well, in the first place, there are episodes of fact and types of character in professional life whose descriptions by famous novelists have become classical in literature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Curiosities of Law and Lawyers ON lately retiring, after half a century's prac tice of the Law, my companions, in Grand Divan assembled, bound me over to complete for their use a Repertory of Good Things relating to our common profession, which I had long been preparing, and of which they had read and heard snatches. These presents contain this fond memorial of departed joys. There are many favourite sayings, standard illustrations, golden sentences, exploits of legal heroes, jests, ex planations of curious and memorable doctrines and incidents, which make up the natural history of the Lawyer Tribe. I have with great care selected and assorted these, and trust they will be found to amuse, if not edify, Lawyers, as well as their numerous Clients.

Download or read book The Law of Agency Classic Reprint written by Gleason Leonard Archer and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-04 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Law of Agency It has long been the custom of law writers, follow ing perhaps the example of the early pioneers of the craft, to write text books for the enlightenment of practicing la/wyers. Within the past quarter century or so law writers have included in their hoped-for audience law students as well as lawyers. The result has not been as happy as might be desired, for law yers nowadays have little use for elementary text books of law - the great digests, encyclopedias, and many-volumed texts having almost completely sup planted the less ambitious work. The real situation is that the great majority of readers of such works are law students. But a book designed primarily for lawyers, and only as an afterthought for students, is not a successful students' book. A book for beginners should, we believe, be written with the needs of the beginner constantly in mind. It must be simple and concise - as happy in the choice of what to eliminate as what to retain. It must pre sent the fundamental principles clearly and vividly to the reader. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Lawyer's Reference Manual of Law Books and Citations The preparation of this work was begun when the idea first suggested itself, but the occupations of a busy life have delayed its completion. In 1876 my father, Richard Soule (author of A Dictionary of English Synonymes and other books of reference), came to my assistance, and had nearly prepared the manuscript for the printer when his death occurred in 1877. His aid was so valuable that the book would have been published in his name if he had lived to carry it through the press.

Download or read book The Law and Lawyers of Honor De Balzac written by John Marshall Gest and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-11 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Law and Lawyers of Honore De Balzac: A Paper The connection between Literature and Law, while not always apparent to him who reads the first without some knowledge of the second, is nevertheless frequent and close. The history of law is the history of civiliza tion, and law itself is only the blessed tie that binds human society together. The novel is the picture of society, and must either implicitly or explicitly be conditioned by the law of its time, just as it must reflect social conventions and customs. A great many great authors have studied law, though comparatively few of them have known how to use their knowledge. The novels of Dickens and Scott owe much of their humor and interest to their authors' skilful use of their information, but neither Dickens nor Scott surpassed Balzac in either information or skill. Brilliant writers, like cut diamonds, are many sided. Balzac's characters, as portrayed in his novels, included men and women of every walk of life, of every profession and occupation, of every grade of education, of every variation of virtue and vice. He played upon a harp of a thousand strings, though not all the spirits of just men made perfect, and in so doing he, more than any other novelist, has disclosed in his writings his own views upon every phase of the social organism.

Download or read book The Law and Lawyers of Sir Walter Scott written by John Marshall Gest and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-02 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Law and Lawyers of Sir Walter Scott: An Address Delivered to the Law Associatior of Philadelphia on March 6, 1906 Walter Scott occupies a unique position in literature. His fame rests on his poems and novels, but he was also an historian, an antiquarian, a lawyer, a judge and a clerk of the highest Court in Scotland. No less a man than Emerson said that Scott, in the number and variety of his characters, approached Shakespeare, and Scott's flatterers were fond of making a closer comparison, but Scott, himself, with the natural modesty of a Scotchman, and the true self appreciation of a genius, said he was not fit to tie Shakespeare's brogues. He surely could not have written Hamlet, nor indeed could he have written Rabbi ben Ezra, nor yet, In Memoriam; but the Lady of the Lake, Marmion and the Lay of the Last Minstrel, with their smooth verse and charming ballads, have never been equalled. His novels are wonderful. No writer has produced so much that is so uniformly good. He hits the gold every time. Stevenson, no mean critic, called him, "out and away the king of the Romantics" and "the best of novelties," but maintains that Scott was wrong in his history, and picks the Lady of the Lake and Guy Mannering to tatters, for their "bad English, bad style, and abominably bad narrative." Macaulay, on the other hand, was amazed by Scott's skilful use of history in his novels. "Scott has used," says Macaulay, "those fragments of truth which historians have scornfully thrown behind them, in a manner which may well excite their envy.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Lawyer: As He Was as He Is as He Can Be It is assumed that what the people of the United States really think or want, as citizens, is expressed through the ballot box. In the interim of these official utterances, public thought is reflected, and more or less created, by the four great organs of public opinion, - the Pulpit, the Press, the Bar, and the Stage. I shall not undertake to estimate the relative value of each of these organs, as creative forces, in shaping the course and destiny of the nation, but it is impossible to discuss one without keeping them all in view. They are parts of a whole. They bear the same close relationship to each other that the nose, the ears, the eyes, and the throat, do to the head.
