This volume combines narratological analyses with an investigation of the ideological ramifications of the use of narrative strategies. The collected essays do not posit any intrinsic or stable connection between narrative techniques and world views. Rather, they demonstrate that world views are inevitably expressed through highly specific formal strategies. This insight leads the contributors to investigate why and how particular narrative techniques are employed and under what conditions.
This book explores the various connections between Law and Opera, providing a comprehensive, multinational, and multidisciplinary (with approaches from jurists, philosophers, musicologist, historians) resource on the subject. Further, it makes a valuable contribution to studies on law and the humanities. While, for example, the relationship between law and literature has been extensively researched, the relationship between Law and Opera remains largely overlooked. The book approaches the topic from three perspectives in three main sections: Law in Opera, Law on Opera, and Law around Opera.

Ce livre est une tentative d’approcher le concept de « désobéissance civile » dans une perspective juridique « scientifique ». De ce fait, son originalité est double. D’une part, il se veut principalement explicatif : son objectif n’est pas de justifier (ou non) la désobéissance civile en fonction de son essence et de son rôle en société, mais plutôt de l’analyser – en tant que concept – à partir d’une conception « postmoderne » de l’obéissance au droit dans la pensée juridique contemporaine. D’autre part, il se veut novateur en théorie du droit : il invite les juristes à recourir à une méthode littéraire afin de formuler un discours réflexif sur le droit. Ainsi mobilisée, la connaissance juridique offre une perspective différente sur des problématiques centrales à toute société démocratique, comme le devoir d’obéissance au droit, mais surtout, la possibilité d’y désobéir.
