Beskrivning
Crimes of Writings examines questions surrounding subjectivity, authenticity, and writing. First, Stewart examines cases of forgery, literary imposture, pornography and graffiti, and the development, from the early eighteenth century onward, of the laws articulating such crimes. Second, she uses `crimes of writing' to connote the ways in which such practices are in fact inversions or negations of cultural rules. Finally, she claims that crimes of writing are delineated by law because they specifically undermine the status of the Law itself.

`Susan Stewart's CRIMES OF WRITING is a valuable and original addition to a growing field of inquiry - one that is adjacent to the study of language and literature, but is more broadly concerned with psychological, social, cultural and even legal issues, than with literature alone... What is, however, highly original is her unusually versatile perceptiveness regarding a range of inscriptive phenomena that transgress and therefore delimit (but also illuminate) the regulatory elements within social systems of representation`.Peter Sacks, Johns Hopkins University.
