Soon after publication, the work became an international monument not only to English law, but to universal English concepts of justice and what Blackstone called "the immutable laws of good and evil." Most legal historians regard the 'Commentaries' as a brilliant application of Enlightenment reasoning to English legal history. 'Loving Justice' contends that Blackstone's work extends beyond making sense of English law to invoke emotions such as desire, disgust, sadness, embarrassment, terror, tenderness, and happiness. By enlisting an affective aesthetics to represent English law as just, Blackstone created an evocative poetics of justice whose influence persists across the Western world. In doing so, he encouraged readers to feel as much as reason their way to justice. Ultimately, Temple argues that the 'Commentaries' offers a complex map of our affective relationship to juridical culture, one that illuminates both individual and communal understandings of our search for justice, and is crucial for understanding both justice and injustice today. 410 0$aNYU scholarship online. 606 $aPractice of law$xPsychological aspects$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01074551 606 $aLaw$xPsychological aspects$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00993801 606 $aLaw and aesthetics$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00993891 606 $aLaw$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00993678 606 $aJustice in literature$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00985152 606 $aEmotions in literature$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00908874 606 $aLaw and aesthetics 606 $aLaw$xPsychological aspects 606 $aPractice of law$zEngland$xPsychological aspects 606 $aLaw$zEngland$xHistory 606 $aEmotions in literature 606 $aJustice in literature 607 $aEngland$2fast 608 $aHistory. 608 $aCriticism, interpretation, etc. 610 $aCommentaries on the Laws of England. 610 $aEnglish legal history. 610 $aGuantanamo Bay. 610 $aHarper Lee. 610 $aLaw and Humanities. 610 $aNathaniel Hawes. 610 $aOnslow v.
