Abstract

ABSTRACT Emerita Professor Margaret Thornton's edited collection, Romancing the Tomes: Popular Culture, Law and Feminism was published in 2002, and grew out of the workshop Margaret organised under the auspices of the Humanities Research Centre at the Australian National University in 2000. In 2021 as part of the Institute of International Law and the Humanities (‘IILAH') Festival of Conversations Margaret spoke to Johanna Commins about the original workshop, the edited collection, and Margaret's reading of High Court Justice Ian Callinan’s first published novel, The Lawyer and the Libertine. The following edited conversation was held at Melbourne Law School in May 2023 and opened the workshop Romancing the Tomes 2.0: Feminism, Law and Popular Culture. It continued via email in early 2024.
