"Law memorializes not just in its archival activities, but in acts that give particular meanings to our past. In every legal act there is an invitation to remember; in the testimony of the witnesses at the trial, in the instructions a judge gives to a jury, in particular interpretive theories, and in the monumental buildings that house our courts as well as our prisons, there is an insistent call to remember."
Law

January 1, 1970
