- Abstract
Two points of this research are of great value for the jurisprudence. On the one hand, the study proposes a new research methodology, based on the interdisciplinary scientific approach. On the other hand, results of the application of the new methodology are considered on the example of the analysis of the novel “Don Quixote”. The science of the history of state and law proposes to use the methods inherent in other humanities, whose object of study includes the same phenomena. For example, the state is more or less studied within different sciences; therefore, a more complete image will surely be formed, if we put together different elements of a mosaic. This approach supposes the application of unconventional sources, which were not used in the jurisprudence being informally prohibited and considering irrelevant. As a source of this type the text of fiction is used there. The study shows that the text of a novel is capable of reconstructing a number of historical and legal events. By the other hand – and it is more important – it is possible to reconstruct peculiarities of legal consciousness of the epoch by means of the text of the literature of fiction
