La letteratura e la riconoscibilità dei sentimenti nelle forme giuridiche

The form of law (and especially criminal law) and literature are compared. While the latter can be no less selective than the former, literature however allows the lawyer to experience and perceiev a kind of multiplicity of forms in the human environment and thus to better understand and care about human dignity, which is based on the idea of human beings capable of assuming forms always different. Moreover literature is deemed essential to foster a skill the lawyer cannot afford not to own, namely imagination, so desperately needed to find new legal solutions for issues an ever changing world raises and which traditional legal approaches are no more able to grasp and deal fairly.
