Résumé

La novela El Weir de Hermiston del autor escocés Robert Louis Stevenson es una valiosa fuente para el análisis del campo del Derecho y Literatura (Law and Literature). En la obra del autor escocés se retratan personajes basados en importantes juristas de la historia de Escocia y se plasma una cultura jurídica con fuertes influencias de la Escuela de la Ilustración Escocesa, proyectando sobre la novela un sentido de la justicia particular, ambiguo y sutil característicos tanto de Escocia como del genial escritor y moralista.

Stevenson shows characters based on important jurists in the Scottish history and a legal culture rooted in the Scottish enlightenment tradition, projecting on the novel a particular, ambiguous and subtle sense of justice, characteristic of Scotland and the great writer and moralist.
