Literary Trials : Exceptio Artis and Theories of Literature in Court
From the 19th century onwards, famous literary trials have caught the attention of readers, academics and the public at large.

In the more than two centuries since then, Brock’s likeness has been lost in a confusing array of portraits—most of which are misidentified or conceptual. The 1824 monument constructed to honou…
