Rhetoric And Somatics: Training The Body To Do The Work Of Law, Peter Goodrich Jan 2001

Rhetoric And Somatics: Training The Body To Do The Work Of Law, Peter Goodrich

Articles

The article explores the intersection of law, rhetoric, and corporeality, arguing that law is deeply embedded in the human body and its emotional and sensory experiences. It posits that legal dogmatics, while often seen as abstract, is shaped by the body's characteristics and movements, which serve as a substrate for legal logic. The analysis centers on Abraham Fraunce and his contemporaries, who critique the strict legality by emphasizing rhetoric, decorum, and the form of life that rhetoric implies. This critique challenges the notion of law as a detached, abstract system by highlighting its corporeal and emotional dimensions.
