The preponderance of juridical and normative themes, of images of rule and infraction, of obedience and error in the emblem books is critical to their purpose and interest. This book outlines the history of the emblem tradition as a juridical genre, along with the concept of, and training in, obiter depicta, in things seen along the way to judgment. It argues that these books depict norms and abuses in classically derived forms that become the visual standards of governance. Despite the plethora of vivid figures and virtual symbols that define and transmit law, contemporary lawyers are not trained in the critical apprehension of the visible. This book is the first to reconstruct the history of the emblem tradition, evidencing the extent to which a gallery of images of law already exists and structuring how the public realm is displayed, made present and viewed.Legal Emblems & the Art of LawSymbolism in lawEmblem booksLaw and artDevices (Heraldry)EmblemsSymbolism in law.Emblem books.Law and art.Devices (Heraldry)Emblems.340/.1Goodrich Peter1954-254874UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910787769603321Legal emblems and the art of law3677393UNINA
