Abstract

In the rather delicate matter of giving a title to this essay on titles, I take my cue from the novel under Paul Auster's name, Leviathan: this paper is named after a monster. The tityrus is a mythical beast, a cross between a sheep and a goat (OED), a creature epitomising the tendency of titles to mark the crossing of borderlines in the law and in literature.
