'A surprising and savory smörgåsbord of sensory stipulations. Synesthestic Legalities brings a brilliant and diverse array of scholarly attentions to the frequently misunderstood embodiments of law. The corpus iuris here becomes real, and the process of apprehending its foods, its tastes, its music, its flatness and protrusions, hauntings and the other odours of order, take in properly theatrical fashion to the jurisprudential stage.' Professor Peter Goodrich, Cardozo School of Law, USA 'The book flies us to Hawaï, its volcano's and metaphors. Legal semiotics tells us there, that law involves all our senses and experiences. A feeling of revolt awakens, if that approach is fragmented. Only the peace of rational and sensual wholeness will be felt as meaningful. Law without senses is senseless -- can you hear me?' Professor Jan M.
Broekman, University of Leuven, Belgium and Penn State, USA 'Synesthetic Legalitiesbuilds on the connection between law and the senses, which is vigorously re-explored in the literature, fortified by law's material and corporeal turns. But it takes it a step further: it brings in synesthetic, namely the sensorial overlapping where the cause does not determine the effect in a mechanistic manner, but allows for the emergence of a plethora of creative possibilities. Synesthetic Legalitiesis nothing less than a kaleidoscope of sensorial inputs, ranging from taste to the kinaesthetic, via such varied embodiments as dance, sketching, and ethics of care, all wrapped in the intense sensuality of volcanic ethics. The taste of law will never sound the same after reading this book.' Professor Andreas Philippopoulos-Mihalopoulos, University of Westminster, UK p;lt;EM> Professor Jan M.
