Tirades against legal theatrics are nearly as old as law itself, and yet so is the age-old claim that law must not merely be done: it must be "seen to be done." Law as Performance traces the history of legal performance and spectatorship through the early modern period. Viewing law as the product not merely of edicts or doctrines but of expressive action, it investigates the performances that literally created law: in civic arenas, courtrooms, judges' chambers, marketplaces, scaffolds, and streets. It examines the legal codes, learned treatises, trial reports, lawyers' manuals, execution narratives, rhetoric books, images (and more) that confronted these performances, praising their virtues or denouncing their evils. In so doing, it recovers a long, rich, and largely overlooked tradition of jurisprudential thought about law as a performance practice. This tradition not only generated an elaborate poetics and politics of legal performance. It provided western jurisprudence with a set of constitutive norms that, in working to distinguish law from theatrics, defined the very nature of law. In the crucial opposition between law and theatre, law stood for cool deliberation, by-the-book rules, and sovereign discipline. Theatre stood for deceptive artifice, entertainment, histrionics, melodrama. And yet legal performance, even at its most theatrical, also appeared fundamental to law's realization: a central mechanism for shaping legal subjects, key to persuasion, essential to deterrence, indispensable to law's power, --as it still does today.

"In considering law through the lens of performance studies, the contributors in this volume emphasize the embodied, affective, and reiterative qualities that move law off the printed page and into the thick world of lived experience. They consider the blurring of lines between performance and the enactment of law, the transformative exchanges between the law and its many and varied stagings, and the impact or resonance of performativity in situations where innocence and guilt may be determined."--

Excerpt from A Practical Treatise on the Law Relating to the Specific Performance of Contracts A long while ago the publishers of these pages entered into an engagement with a prominent member of the bar to write a treatise on the Specific Performance of Con tracts, but his subsequent call to a different field of labor compelled him to relinquish the undertaking, and the au thor then, by request, took it up. At that time this im portant subject had not been separately treated by any American writer; and, though it occupied a place in books on the general system'of Equity Jurisprudence, yet, to obtain detailed information in. Relation to it, resort was necessarily had to English works, which, of course, did not always present the law relating to the specific enforcement of contracts precisely as it is administered by the courts of this country. The reports of every State in the Union bear abundant testimony to the practical nature and fre quent recurrence between litigants of the topics herein dis cussed; and it is the object of the present volume to give the result of our legal decisions in connection with those of Great Britain in establishing rules governing such suits.

"This book considers how law is always enacted, or performed, in ways that can be analysed in relation to fiction, theatre, and other dramatic forms. Of necessity, lawyers and judges need to devise techniques to make rules respond situationally. The performance of law supplements, or it extends the reach of, the law-as-written. And, in this respect, the act of lawyering is in many ways an instantiation of acts often associated with, for example, literature and the plastic and performing arts. Combining legal theory and legal practice, this book maintains that the modes of enquiry found in, and applied to, novels, paintings, and plays can help us understand how things like legal arguments and trials work - or don't. As such, and through the examination of a wide range of both historical and fictional legal cases, the book pursues an interdisciplinary analysis of how law is performed; and, moreover, how legal performances can be accomplished ethically. This book will appeal to scholars and students in sociolegal studies, legal theory and jurisprudence, as well as those teaching and training in legal practice"--
