Who was Anton Wilhelm Amo? Remapping the Jungle vs. Vom faulen Holze lebend?!

Meer over het boek

The book critically examines the portrayal of prominent figures in German legal science, such as Karl Larenz and Immanuel Kant, questioning their almost reverential status in academic circles. It highlights concerns raised by scholars like Wimmer, Firla, and Hentges about the lack of scrutiny regarding these 'semi-divine' thinkers and their contributions. The discussion extends to the implications of Holocaust-related themes, urging a reevaluation of how these influential figures are presented in legal education and scholarship, advocating for a more critical and nuanced perspective.
