The Bavli on “Truth”
Authors: Kraemer David 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
As noted in chapter 5, the form of the Bavli has certain specific implications regarding the ideologies of its authors. These include a recognition that truth is indeterminable and that alternative views can encompass different aspects of the whole truth. Since, for this reason, final answers may be unavailable, the process by which answers are sought assumes far greater interest and acts of study and interpretation become, on their own terms, expressions of piety.
Romantic Medicine and John Keats
Authors: Almeida Hermione De 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
John Keats was a licensed apothecary and general practitioner of medicine. This book addresses the four fundamental intellectual issues of Romantic medicine—the physician’s task, the meaning of life, the constituents of health and prescriptions of disease, and evolution of matter and mind—as they find focus and expression in poetry and aesthetic theory. The book traces the genesis of these issues and shows the reason for their immediate relevance to the Romantic period as a whole. It identifies them as the primary philosophical counters of the artistic and scientific debates of the revolutionary period and discusses them and their ideologies in the context of the era’s belief in the art of healing as the foremost humanistic discipline.
The London Medical Circle
Authors: Almeida Hermione De 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Contrary to the Victorian fantasy of Keats as a sensitive juvenile artist forcibly apprenticed to a craft of medicine, the poet was not only a willing and able student of Romantic medicine but a committed and enduring one. His decision to study medicine, made in 1810 in the months following his mother’s death and within the context of his recent experience nursing her through the last stages of consumption, formalized what had already become a compelling concern for the suffering and distress of those around him.
Reading the Faces of Pain
Authors: Almeida Hermione De 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Faces, expressions bearing the full ranges from joy to sorrow, from innocence to knowledge, of human, natural, and mythic forms, dot the landscape of Keats’s poetry. Early lyrics invoke the “open face of heaven” and “the half -veil’d face of heaven” (“To one who has been long in city pent,” 3, “To Hope,” 45); Spenser is invoked as a “clear sun-rise” because his brows “are arched, open, kind,” and George Felton Mathew’s goodness mirrors “The placid features of a human face” (“Specimen,” 49, “To George F.
The Pharmakon
Authors: Almeida Hermione De 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Apollo’s arrows, or snakes, or mists warrant further pursuit. When Apollo discharged his arrows into the Greek host besieging Troy, pestilence followed. But this pestilence, we are told by Homer, was occasioned by Agamemnon’s crime. The source of the pestilence remains uncertain. We are left to speculate whether Apollo’s arrows are poisoned, and come as an affliction to punish Agamemnon’s men for his sin; or whether the god’s arrows are dangerous simply because they are his, expressions of divine power that automatically reveal the internal corruption of the mortal Greeks (or their leader).
Specific Pharmaka
Authors: Almeida Hermione De 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Friar Lawrence tells us of the great and powerful grace that lies in herbs, plants, and stones; Keats, especially in Endymion and the early poetry, shows himself to be poet and “sage of mickle lore” because he is a priest of the “world’s herbal” (Otho, III, ii, 123) who combines both a priestly knowledge of mythological pharmaceuticals with a nineteenth-century homeopathic belief in specific medicines; one who prescribes not only the mythical dittamy, grains of paradise, and cassia but also calomel, antimony and the “droop-headed flowers” of ipecacuanha.
The Freaks of Imagination
Authors: Almeida Hermione De 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
The creative perceptions of an immortal imagination, according to the Natur-philosophen, engender the mortal realizations of beauty in nature. Vision of these natural beauties by a creative mind. according to the Keats of 1818, will engender an evolution of imagination and comprehensive advance in parallel stages of perceptual intensity. The would-be poet’s projected tour of the North of England will be “a sort of Prologue to the Life I intend to pursue:” “I will clamber through the Clouds and exist.
Saturn’s Query of Force
Authors: Almeida Hermione De 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
“Who had power To make me desolate whence came the strength How was it nurtur’d to such bursting forth .” Saturn asks (Hyp., I, 102-4). He speaks as leader of the fallen Titans and first among the newly extinct creatures, and his question bears all the incomprehension of his physical and perceptual circumstance. Saturn cannot conceive how even as almighty “Fate seem’d strangled in lhisl nervous grasp” (105), power, elsewhere and seemingly nurtured in secret, rendered him and his tribe desolate.
The Imagination of Life
Authors: Almeida Hermione De 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
When Novalis described poetry as generation and resolved to call a collection of his thoughts on art Bliitenstaub1 or “pollen,” he expressed a belief common among Romantic poets and artists: that the creative consciousness is life generating and reflects the patterns of organic creation in its imagination of life and life forms. The Romantic concept of the generative power of poetry nevertheless holds a particularly poignant place in any understanding of Keats’s conception of art and, especially, his own art. Intense art for Keats, whether that of the immortal Apollo in Hyperion and the early poems or that of the mortal poet of The Fall of Hyperion and the later poetry, debilitates and exhausts itself in its creations.2 It is unable to cast a “cold eye” on life and death, in W. B. Yeats’s phrase, and, bound by its passionate identifications with life in all its fresh perfections and deathly dissolutions, necessarily shares in the finitude of the life force as first conceived by the Romantic evolutionists.
Reading Life
Authors: Almeida Hermione De 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Keats’s last and perhaps most perfect ode, “To Autumn,” provides the pattern and the sign to the poet’s final, diagnostic reading of life.Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness, Close bosom-friend of the maturing sun;Conspiring with him how to load and bless With fruit the vines that round the thatch-eves run; To bend with apples the moss’d cottage-trees, And fill all fruit with ripeness to the core; To swell the gourd, and plump the hazel shells With a sweet kernel; to set budding more, And still more, later flowers for the bees, Until they think warm days will never cease,For summer has o’er brimm’d their clammy cells.
Morbid Fevers
Authors: Almeida Hermione De 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
In the still and moony hour Of that calm entwining sleep, From the utmost tombs of earth The vision-land of death and birth, Came a black, malignant power, A spectre of the desert deep: And it is Plague, the spotted fiend, the drunkard of the tomb; Upon her mildewed temples the thunderbolts of doom, And blight-buds of hell’s red fire, like gory wounds in bloom, Are twisted for a wreath; And there’s a chalice in her hand, whence bloody flashes gleam, While struggling snakes with arrowy tongues twist o’er it for a stream, And its liquor is of Phlegethon, and Aetna’s wrathful stream, And icy dews of death.
Television and the Formation of Public Opinion
Authors: Mickiewicz Ellen 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Virtually from the beginning of the Gorbachev leadership, the Soviet public and the outside world perceived an elevation of the role of public opinion and a conscious and more knowledge able utilization of the mechanisms by which public opinion is formed in the modern world. This change is, in my view, to a great extent, a response to the dramatic spread of television in the Soviet Union and the enormous public it has attracted. Under Gorbachev, television has been accorded status as a powerful vehicle for the shaping of public opinion. If the Soviet system is to manage public opinion it must be able to gauge its dimensions, and this, in turn, would require a more rigorous and scientifically grounded understanding of the theory of how messages are assimilated and opinion formed.

Television has become the pre-eminent medium of mass communication in the Soviet Union. It is the medium that has created the first mass public in Soviet history. No other medium has ever transmitted messages to such an enormous number of people. It is a public that embraces the barely literate and the academician, the hero mothers of Central Asia and the engineers of Sverdlovsk. It is a medium whose messages reach over nine tenths of the entire population of the country. The extension of the new

Abstract
In January 1969, a press conference was held at the St. Regis Hotel in New York. Leaders of the newly formed National Citizens Committee for Broadcasting (NCCB) announced a plan to combat “airwave pollution.” The group called for a “stop to the broadcast-government liaison that in the name of free enterprise has exploited audiences-our nation’s people-and enriched a handful of their peers.” Proclaiming itself “a voice for the people, who have had no voice in how the public airwaves have been used,” NCCB threatened to challenge the licenses of stations around the country “at random.”

Abstract
Ira Davidson was shocked to hear the news. A veteran TV writer with a long, successful career in ‘the business, he had never experienced anything like this before. A TV movie he had written was under attack for causing the death of a twelve year-old boy. Web of Fire was about a deranged architect who set fire to his own building. It seems a young boy in Seattle had watched the movie and, in “copycat” fashion, had gone to his school, set it on fire, and died of smoke inhalation. Davidson, a responsible writer with a family of his own, was so disturbed to hear of the boy’s death that he decided to fly to Seattle and find out for himself what really happened.
The Hollywood Lobbyists

Abstract
The guests had finished their catered buffet dinner of “nouvelle Chinese” cuisine, and had found their seats in the large, comfortable living room of this Spanish-style home in the exclusive Hancock Park district of Los Angeles. The atmosphere was friendly and informal, and most of the guests already knew each other. This “gathering” of about forty prominent Hollywood producers, writers, and directors was sponsored by a nonprofit organization called Microsecond. Microsecond’s director, Norman Fleishman, a soft-spoken man in his late forties, introduced the evening’s guest speaker, Michael Pertschuk, public interest advocate and former chairman of the Federal Trade Commission.
Negotiating “Realism” and Responsibility in Lawyer-Client Interactions
Authors: Sarat Austin , Felstiner William L F 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
In the world of no-fault divorce, the legal process formally has limied functions—dividing assets and future income, fixing custody and visitation, and, occasionally, protecting physical safety and property (Jacob, 1988: 5, 7–8; Weitzman, 1985: chap. 2). Nonetheless, if they are to provide effective representation on each of these issues, lawyers must understand their client’s goals, expectations, and objectives (McEwen et al., 1994: 169). But interpreting clients’ interests is a known quagmire (Kressel et al., 1978). Clients often do not appear to know what they want, or may not want what they “ought” to want. They seem to change their minds in unpredictable ways, or they may not change their minds when it is, from their lawyer’s point of view, strategically wise to do so. Moreover, they may find it difficult to distinguish betwee lawyers who are trying to impose their own vision and those who are trying to develop a shared set of goals, expectations, and objectives (Simon, 1984).
Introduction

Abstract
The mainstream churches in America today face a serious crisis. For over two decades now mainline communions-such as the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.), the United Methodist Church, the Episcopal Church, and the United Church of Christ-have faced staggering membership declines that threaten the continued vitality of these bodies. The Press bittering Church (U.S.A.), for example, Jost over 1.2 million members from 1966 to 1987, and the membership of the United Methodist Church declined from over 10.6 million in 1970 to under 9.2 million in 1986. Though the reasons for this haemorrhage in membership are many and complex, one contributor to the decline noted by analysts is the nebulous doctrinal identity of the churches. In a quest for inclusiveness and relevance to the increasingly secular American culture, the maim ream churches have adopted a policy of doctrinal pluralism, thereby blurring their theological identities. Thus Wade Clark Roof and William Mc Kinney recently argued: “A crucial challenge for liberal Protestantism is to recapture some sense of particularity as a community of memory and not merely as a custodian of generalized cultural values. This will
The Close of the Controversy The Entanglement of Religion and Culture
Authors: Longfield Bradley J 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
The 1934 General Assembly declared the Independent Board for Presbyterian Foreign Missions unconstitutional. This decision was based largely on a lengthy study of the Constitution of the Presbyterian Church, prepared for the assembly, which asserted that church members were obligated to “promote the officially authorized missionary program” of the church and that the operation of any missionary board independent of the General Assembly within the church was illegal. The assembly thus ordered the independent board to cease its solicitation of funds within the church and directed all Presbyterian clergy and laity to sever their connections with the board or face disciplinary action
Introduction

Published: November 2023

Abstract
Courts offer various rationales for their decisions on constitutional issues. They sometimes formulate or follow general doctrines and they often employ particular structural, prudential, or ethical arguments in the course of balancing competing interests. Such approaches may be used in an effort to achieve justice or to secure the public welfare, but they may lack a clear connection to the original intent of the Constitution. Indeed, legal scholars have questioned the extent to which the initial meaning can be known or should be followed. “The Founding Fathers—and their intentions—are clothed in mystery,” Arthur S. Miller has written, adding that the history of the period is incomplete, that courts abuse it at will, and that it settles little that is worth arguing about. “Questions of constitutional law involve matters of public policy which should not be decided merely because of the original meanings of words in the Constitution,” Leonard W. Levy has maintained. “They must be read as revelations of the general purposes which were to be achieved, or as expressions of imperishable principles that are expansive and comprehensive in character.”
Sovereignty and Seditious Libel
Authors: Smith Jeffery A 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
In 1803, Samuel Miller, a Presbyterian minister in New York, published A Brief Retrospect of the Eighteenth Century, a book sub titled, A Sketch of the Revolutions and Improvements in Science, Arts, and Literature, During that Period. Commenting on what he thought had been remarkably rapid development of American journalism, the author observed that the country’s newspapers had become “immense moral and political engines, closely connected with the welfare of the state, and deeply involving both its peace and prosperity.” He also noted that they had been “pronounced by travellers, the most profligate and scurrilous public prints in the civilized world.” On one hand, as Miller analyzed it, newspapers disseminated useful information, exposed political corruption, and promoted unity and the love of freedom. On the other, they could lacerate private character, be obscene and impious, and generate party violence.
The Colonial Journalist: Good Humour’d Unless Provok’d
Authors: Smith Jeffery A 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
In the summer of 1798, at the height of the Sedition Act frenzy, Samuel Smith, a Republican congressman from Maryland, cut out a newspaper article and mailed it to Vice President Thomas Jefferson. The article accused Jefferson of having recently been “closeted” with several people, including the editor of the Philadelphia Aurora, Benjamin Franklin Bache, who was then awaiting trial for seditious libel. Noting that his movements were watched by his political opponents, Jefferson wrote to Smith that Bache, the country’s most militant Republican journalist, was a man of ability and of principles favorable to liberty and the American form of government. “Mr. Bache has another claim on my respect,” Jefferson added, “as being the grandson of Dr. Franklin, the greatest man & ornament of the age and country in which he lived.”
The Revolutionary Journalist: The Court of the Press
Authors: Smith Jeffery A 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
As a colonial agent and American propagandist in England and later as a diplomat in France, Benjamin Franklin spent all but three years from 1757 to 1785 in Europe. During this time, he routinely used the skill in journalistic argument and satire which he first developed as a printer’s apprentice in the 1720s. Commenting in 1773 on two of his better known satires of British government in America, “Rules by Which a Great Empire May Be Reduced to a Small One” and “An Edict by the King of Prussia,” Franklin said that they were calculated to expose the mother country’s conduct “in a short, com prehensive, and striking view, and stated therefore in out-of-the-way forms, as most likely to take the general attention.”

Maria BELL diligently pursued her many avocations until she found that instead of being in a hopeless condition of isolation, she was, in fact, favoured by fortune to have such a position and such companionship. She kept house with zeal, on the old lines that she had seen followed by her mother for many years. She taught in the Sunday School, and at times visited the poor. Tlien she had to tell her father of all her doings, and have his opinion and encouragement. Her abilities were taxed, but not overtaxed, and her mind grew, sheltered, but not stifled, to a healthy development. Her father liked to entrust her with occasional matters of business or negotiation, and always listened to every particular of the tale she told afterwards. He wondered at her wit, and was amused at her simplicity, and thought that on the whole there never was so clever and so kindly a girl. He was nearer right than most parents are.

It happened when Sarah had been a year and a half at school that an accidental conversation changed the current of her thoughts and set her imagination a-going again for something to wish for. She had been content and happy with her school work, and the books that Miss Bell occasionally lent her, and with the singing to fill up the evenings and all her spare time. But only on Saturdays and on the few holidays could a real good meeting, from five to nine or thereabouts, be held at Sykes’s; and to make the best of this Sarah gave her utmost efforts. When John brought word that Sydney had got some new music and the Flocks’s were coming, Sarah went about the living-room that she had to clean like a flitting bird, and was generally at liberty to help Harriet before the afternoon was half over. Harriet, too, began making the house uncomfortable with such energy that old Sykes took himself off immediately after dinner, and Sammy was told he ought to do the same.

Abstract
As Christmas came nearer the young folks began to look forward to a merry-making of some sort, and the elders to throw cold water on all projects. There could be no such thing as merry-making even for those who had the means. People were afraid to show their comforts or to appear at their ease. Mrs. Miles had given leave for a quiet meeting at her house to sing hymns and such like. She had reduced the style of living before the end of the year. The family ate oatcake instead of wheaten bread, and spared the butter to it. For them there was no fear of want, but there was the general poverty. “I dare not be seen eating Christmas cake,” she said, and her husband agreed. He had resolved to give over trusting a month before Christmas in order that people might not find themselves pulled up too .suddenly. He laid in no stock and let his bare shelves be seen, and most of his business now was to stand behind his counter and say “No” to his customers.
