Through metalanguage, we propose a link between literature and the academic writing style in the scope of scientific research in Law. We start from the hypothesis that literature can teach us to constitute a more authorial writing, through the mobilization of multiple functions of language, guaranteeing style effects that highlight the narrative and argumentative aspects of the research in Law. We understand that the craft of words, present in literary writing, can lend to juridical writings a sense of posterity, reaffirming them against the ruins of oblivion. Finally, we resorted to the slow pace of literary creation to question the excessive haste of law researchers, driven by the speed of the digital age and the demands of productivism. In response to the excesses of production, we propose the aesthetic of creation.
