Writing in the Legal Academy: A Dangerous Supplement?

Abstract

This Article argues that an ancient hierarchy that favors speech over writing has insinuated itself into the law school curriculum. It describes how law faculty, law students, and teachers of writing have become trapped in the hierarchy, to the overall detriment of the legal academy. The Article refers to the deconstructionist notion of the "dangerous supplement" in order to criticize the speech/writing hierarchy and to analyze the relation of speech, writing, and the law.
