Overview
Overview
The author calls this book a "discursive commentary" on legal interpretation. However, it could also be titled "The Theory of Interpretation Not Taught at Law School." The book has two parts. The first part contains extensive exposition of grammatical and linguistic features of the English language from the point of view of a lawyer-linguist whose primary concern is clarity of thought. The second part of Interpretation focuses on legal theories and philosophy of law, which ought to support the underlying linguistic rationale. In order to underscore the tie between our legal system, mythology and social custom, which form the corrective background to our daily actions, the book is interlaced with arrogate reproductions of classical art.
