| Sumario: | This paper intends to enquire into the person and work of Friedrich Spee, a Jesuit poet who starts, by means of his criticism of the witch hunt, what we now call critical criminology. We are interested in analysing his work Cautio Criminalis, in which questions harshly the witch hunt and the use of torture. We further intend to historically analyse the evolution of Criminal Law, showing how it has become an autonomous discipline. Finally, the technification of the (not only criminal) law process is analysed as part of a process related to the way Law teaching is taught, which increasingly pulls away from disciplines such as philosophy and legal history, the legal analysis being focused on economic and technical models. In this respect, there is an alternative path, critical of the technification of the Law, which intends to recover, in the line drawn by Martha Nussbaum, the value of humanities. Following the model of people like Spee, the importance of literature, in general, and of poetry, in particular, is recovered to humanise Criminal Law, thus generating a more humane and humanised teaching (and practice) thereof. |
