| Description | Th is paper suggests using theatre in legal education, primarily to let the students experience and accustom themselves to certain codes of conduct and model situations which they will encounter in their future careers. As a methodological foundation for such activities, the paper suggests to use the system developed by Komenský, which shows that his playful approach to teaching is certainly not outdated. |
