Summary
Peter Goodrich evaluates Schreber's jurisprudence by analysing the Memoirs and its varied interpretations in detail, and sets his work in the context of both the neo-Kantian pure science of law of fin-de-siècle German jurisprudence and twenty-first-century legal theory. This radically novel analysis reveals how Schreber's work not only challenges the legal thought of his era but also opens up a potentially vital approach to jurisprudence.
