Abstract

[Literature (and humanities) as places of legal emotions. Educational perspectives from the «space» Summer School in Law and Humanities in Cannes 2023] The link between law, humanities and emotions is related to legal pedagogy. The legal-humanistic pedagogy will therefore be investigated, reflecting on its potential to impact legal interpretation and contribute to community-building. The reflection will start from the experience of a concrete educational space (that of the Summer School in Law and Humanities developed in Cannes 2023) and its three theoretical-affective «spaces»: Lon Fuller's cave, Plato's cave and the cave of the metaverse. A literary analysis of these spaces will be carried out, providing some suggestions for a legal theory of emotions.
