Cardozo Studies in Law and Literature

Abstract

The article reflects on the creation and naming of *Cardozo Studies in Law and Literature*, emphasizing the significance of naming and design in establishing a journal’s identity and intellectual mission. The decision to include "Cardozo" in the title was strategic, balancing the need for institutional recognition with intellectual credibility, while avoiding overt advertising. The choice of "Studies" over other terms like "Essays" or "Review" underscored the journal’s interdisciplinary and humane focus. The article highlights how the journal’s name and format were deliberately crafted to differentiate it from traditional law reviews, signaling a unique blend of legal and literary scholarship.
