Hypotheses-Blog
The Law is difficult to understand. It needs the glossator to explain, discuss and translate it, applying methods of marginal or interlinear annotations. Images belong to the elemental core of the body of law and the production of juridical meaning in visual terms.
The Blog is concerned with the history and life of images in legal contexts and tries to grasp their normative role, as well as their opposition against prevailing normativities and normative orders.
The pictorial glossaries will give examples of the “ratio visiva” of the legal world, that reach from the representational to the sensual realm of legal normativity, drawing out a visual rationale from the conflicting rulings of legal texts, that belong also to what is called the “force” of law.
Pictorial glossaries:
- AESTHETICS OF RESISTANCE
- THE VISUALITY OF FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS
