REFLECTION OF CRIMINAL LAW IN LITERATURE AND ART

Abstract

The development of the technical capabilities of the media to expand the audience, combined with an increase in the share of action-packed literature, films and TV series, raised the question of the nature of the impact of this cultural product on public consciousness. What is primary and what is secondary – the fight against crime in fiction or the same process in real life? Despite the seemingly obvious answer, there is no consensus on this issue. The attempts made by individual dissertators to achieve certainty in the above dilemma give interesting results, but such studies are isolated. Therefore, a purposeful and thorough study of action-packed works and the process of their impact on public consciousness seems relevant.
