It looks to law and works of literature across differing eras and genres focussing upon such concepts as inherited stigma, illegitimacy, orphanisation, adoption, othering, reunion, and the ‘right’ to access truths that relate to one’s original identity. Law’s role in such matters is often limited (or usurped) by custom, practice, or lingering superstitious beliefs; the importance of oral and written testimony is therefore highlighted. Characters include abandoned or orphaned figures from folk and fairy tales, Romantic and Victorian monsters and heroes, Dickensian waifs, Edwardian rescue orphans, and dystopia-set ‘rebels.‘ Their insights and experiences are mirrored in various present day scenarios that speak to familial human rights abuses, not least forced adoptions and bars on accessing original information. This cross-disciplinary book drawing on Law, Literature, Sociology, Critical Adoption Studies should be of interest to those interested in and those who have been affected in some way by adoption, orig | | 出版日期 | Book 2023 | | 關(guān)鍵詞 | Family Law; Adoption Studies; Socio-Legal Studies; Law and identity; Literature and identity; Orphans; Hum | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-46246-7 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-031-46248-1 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-031-46246-7Series ISSN 2947-9274 Series E-ISSN 2947-9282 | | issn_series | 2947-9274 | | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
