Law school is so relentlessly
uncreative and pedantic at times and courses that expand the bounds of
traditional law curriculum are precious few. Where I attend school,
the course "Law and Literature" fills up with the first 15 students who
can access the registration line (and it's not because the class is a "slide"--it's
taught by a very intelligent constitutional/ethics scholar who requires
each student to write several lengthy papers and direct a meeting of the
seminar). It's impressive that an administration would allow such
a foray as yours, however tenuously linked it is to the study of law.
Lancelot is a must, especially
in a law school setting (most relevant novel topically).
I hope your students enjoy
this breath of fresh air.

Thisbook has been widely acknowledged as a guide
as to how the profession is andhow it may become. Personally. after 30
years in law, I believe the arguments and the extensively
footnoted references in this text are a must for any aspiring person entering
law and for those now within the profession. This is why i am on this list
serve.

As a law
student, hearing this makes me want to transfer to SUNY for the remainder
of my third year. Percy in law school? Creative curriculum
at its very best!
