Author Biography

Jeanne Gaakeer, Erasmus University Rotterdam

Jeanne Gaakeer is internationally apraised for the studies she has developed for years on the subject of Law and Literature. With a background in English Literature (1980), Dutch Law (1990) and Philosophy (1992), in 1995 her dissertation dealt with the history and evolution of Law and Literature, focusing on the work of James Boyd White. Together with Greta Olson (Giessen University / ALE), she is the founder of the European Network for Law and Literature (www.eurnll.org), whose core proposals are to encourage the study of Law and Literature and to promote European cooperation around the area. In 2013, she was awarded the J. B. White Award, given by the Association for the Study of Law, Culture and Humanities, in recognition for the originality and excellence of her contribution to Law, Culture and Humanities studies.
