The affinity between Law and Per­for­mance (think the­atrical per­for­mance in any of its broad pos­si­bil­ities) opens up a series of ques­tions that need to be ana­lyzed both in history and in theory.

In this second installment of Micro­lit­er­a­tures: The Margins of the Law, Pro­fessor Patricia Dailey (English & Com­par­ative Lit­er­ature, Columbia Uni­versity) and her stu­dents join us for a common research.

Iberian Con­nec­tions vocation is to explore ways to do inno­v­ative research in our fields.

Esta serie de sesiones es en cierto modo una excepción.

During this second semester of exis­tence of Iberian Con­nec­tions, we are devoting all our interest to the central question of Public Humanities.

Closely related to the graduate seminar Micro­lit­er­a­tures: In the Margins of the Law, this series of sem­inars (issue #2 of Iberian Con­nec­tions) con­venes spe­cialists from varied fields of inquiry whose lines of ques­tioning also con­verge in Iberia.

This graduate seminar is devoted to the study of texts and images engaging with legal thinking in the margins of legal and non legal man­u­scripts and printed books from the Middle Ages and the Early Modern period. Along with primary sources including legal cod­i­fi­cation, car­tog­ra­phers, or legal com­men­taries, we are going to read theory and schol­arship, engaging with works by the fol­lowing authors: Michel Fou­cault, Judith Butler, Adriana Cavarero, Steven L.
