Why did Bronte and Gaskell find gossip such a useful source of information when lawyers excluded it as hearsay? How did Trollope's work as an editor influence his preoccupation throughout his novels with libel?

It analyses their literary constructions of character in relation to specific legal cases and doctrines, including the right to silence, libel and privacy.…
