Legal knowledge through the prism of a new metho-dological horizon

Abstract

In this article, the author highlights the importance of legal methodology in the research process, because the writings about law must comprise almost all theoretical concerns, centered on the exegesis of positive law, of jurisprudence, especially in the area of interpretation, of legal hermeneutics. This work is also significant from the standpoint of transdisciplinarity, as the necessity for legal knowledge to contribute to the contemplation of law, constituted in other domains such as philosophical, theological, or artistic, has become increasingly apparent. In this sense, we consider the defining quality of law as a cultural product, as a creation of the integral human spirit. The research of the legal phenomenon must necessarily take into account the investigations carried out equally in other fields of universal science. Thus, the scientific approach of the present research aims at the ignored or blurred existence of some important legal meanings in the cultural, historical, artistic, literary, religious creation and which are extremely beneficial for the theory and practice of law. The research methodology involves traditional methods such as the historical, logical, comparative, systemic method, but also current methods such as the informational - communicational ones, as well as the integrative strategy, without affecting the specificity of the legal phenomenon.
