As such, they have attracted sustained attention from historians and legal scholars. This edited collection substantially enlarges the topical and disciplinary scope of this burgeoning field, exploring such varied subjects as literary analysis of Hannah Arendt’s work, the restitution case for Gustav Klimt’s Beethoven Frieze, and the ritualistic aspects of criminal trials UR - https://doi.org/10.1515/9781785336980?locatt=mode:legacy UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9781785336980 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9781785336980/original ER -
