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.

I have only to request-that you will bear in mind certain established truths, which occasmnally escape your memory when you are reading a work of fiction. Be pleased, then, to remember (first): that the actions of human beings are not invariably governed by the laws of pure reason. (secondly) that we are by no means always in the habit (especially when we happen to be women) of bestowing our love on the objects which are the most deserving of it, in the Opinions of our friends. (thirdly and Lastly): that Characters which may not have appeared, and Events which may not have taken place, Within the limits of our own individual experience, may nevertheless be perfectly natural Characters and perfectly probable Events, for all that. Having said these few words, I have said'all that seems to be necessary at the present time; and I bid you cordially farewell.

Download or read book Recognition in International Law written by Hersch Lauterpacht and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2012-11 with total page 505 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published by Hersch Lauterpacht in 1947, this book presents a detailed study of recognition in international law, examining its crucial significance in relation to statehood, governments and belligerency. The author develops a strong argument for positioning recognition within the context of international law, reacting against the widely accepted conception of it as an area of international politics. Numerous examples of the use of law and conscious adherence to legal principle in the practice of states are used to give weight to this perspective. This paperback re-issue in 2012 includes a newly commissioned Foreword by James Crawford, Whewell Professor of International Law at the University of Cambridge and a Fellow of Jesus College, Cambridge.

Download or read book The Law and Lawyers of Honor De Balzac written by John Marshall Gest and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 44 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 civilization, 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.

When Preston, the great con veyancer, gravely stated to the Court of the King's Bench the platitude that an estate in fee simple was the highest estate known to the law of England, the Chief Justice said, with politest irony, Stay, stay, Mr. Preston, let me take that down. An estate (the judge writing as he spoke) - ih fee simple - is the highest estate - known to the law of England.' Thank you, Mr. Preston; the Court, sir, is much indebted to you for the information.

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: Our Old-Man-of-the-Sea The author of the following pages criticizes in forcible and incisive terms the legal systems of England, India, and America. These systems are closely connected together - the Indian being directly founded on the English, and its defects being merely those of the English system, though in an exaggerated and distorted form; while the administration of criminal justice in some parts of America, which follows at least the forms of English law, affords a melancholy illustration of what may happen in this country if legal reforms are not speedily introduced.
