This essay reviews the theoretical-methodological contributions of Carlos Ramos Núñez, university professor and constitutional magistrate, in the field of interdisciplinary studies of law and literature.

This particular vision reflects his training as a legal historian and his affinities in favor of a cultural analysis of the legal phenomenon.

Starting from the justice classes, the author made a reading in iuspoetic key of four poems by César Vallejo, analyzed in his essay "Justice in Vallejo's poetry". Namely: "Our bread", poem XXIII by Trilce, "Black stone on a white stone" and "Hymn to the volunteers of the Republic".
