The Law Professor As Schizophrenic, Suzanna Sherry
The Law Professor As Schizophrenic, Suzanna Sherry
Vanderbilt Law School Faculty Publications
Neal Devins says that we don't put political science into our casebooks and Gerald Rosenberg levels the same charge at our scholarship. And so it has fallen to me to defend the ranks of law professors from these scurrilous accusations. Unfortunately, I can't do it: Rosenberg, at least, is largely right. Rosenberg's delightful little polemic has accurately diagnosed the problem. Law professors as a group are too arrogant, too disdainful of empirical information in favor of grand abstractions, and appallingly willing to write in disciplines of which they are woefully ignorant. There are many exceptions, of course: with or without …

Development And Implementation Of The C-Print Speech-To-Text Support Service, Michael Stinson, Barbara Mckee, Lisa Elliot
Articles
In this chapter we provide an overview of the growth of this system from an idea to a system that hundreds of deaf and hard of hearing students depend on everyday for communication access and learning. This chapter addresses the following questions regarding the development and implementation of C-Print. Why is there a need for the system? How does C-Print work? What have been the phases in creating the current system? What is the research evidence regarding its effectiveness and limitations? How might the system change in the future as new technologies emerge?
Much To Do About Something: Destabilizing Law's Support Of Dominant Ideologies In The Context Of Lesbian Mother Custody Claims In Canada, Natasha Kim
Dalhousie Journal of Legal Studies
This article surveys a very specific legal context: the claims of mothers, who are lesbians, in custody disputes over their children, with their heterosexual ex-spouses, in Canadian courts. The author examines the developments in judgments surrounding custody involving a lesbian mother over the past two and a half decades, focusing on the line of reasoning within the judgments rather than the substantive results (that is, to whom custody is granted). The end result will be an attempt to better understand the interaction between law as a discourse and the dominant ideologies of familialism, motherhood, and heteronormativity. In Part Two, the …

Don't Get Lost In Translation: Teaching Law Students To Work With Language Interpreters, Angela Mccaffrey
Don't Get Lost In Translation: Teaching Law Students To Work With Language Interpreters, Angela Mccaffrey
Clinical Law Review
The General Practice Clinic at Hamline University School of Law was established in 1985. It was designed to provide civil legal services to low income persons, including persons who are relative newcomers to Minnesota, as a result of being refugees from their homelands. Over the years the students have assisted clients with family law matters, supplemental security insurance hearings, consumer cases, reemployment insurance hearings and immigration cases, particularly related to family reunification. As a result of client priorities and the availability of other resources in the community, the largest area of client need has been in the immigration area. Of …

Appreciating Collaborative Lawyering, Ascanio Piomelli
Clinical Law Review
In April 1988, I returned to East Palo Alto, California, to join its Community Law Project as a staff attorney. After two and a half years as a housing and employment law litigator at a legal services office in Fresno, I was glad to return to the San Francisco Bay Area. I was particularly eager to work in East Palo Alto because of its history, demographics, and a political climate that was refreshingly out of step with most of the rest of the nation in the eighth year of the Reagan Administration. Thirty miles south of San Francisco, five miles …
When Winning Isn’T Everything: The Lawyer As Problem Solver, Carrie Menkel-Meadow
When Winning Isn’T Everything: The Lawyer As Problem Solver, Carrie Menkel-Meadow
Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works
Today I want to address the question of what the modern lawyer needs to know and what the modern lawyer must know how to do to be good at what he or she does, to be helpful to clients, to lead a fulfilling life, and hopefully, to leave the world a better place than he or she first found it. I went to law school to work on that illusive jurisprudential concept - justice. On the outside walls of the Edward Bennett Williams Library where I work in Washington, DC, is a quote, which we attribute to a former Georgetown …
Are There Nothing But Texts In This Class? Interpreting The Interpretive Turns In Legal Thought, Robin West
Are There Nothing But Texts In This Class? Interpreting The Interpretive Turns In Legal Thought, Robin West
Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works
Allan Hutchinson remarks at the beginning of his interesting article that Gadamer's writings have had only a peripheral influence on legal scholarship -- only occasionally cited, and then begrudgingly so, and never given the serious attention they deserve or require. Nevertheless, Hutchinson acknowledges, Gadamerian influences can be noted -- particularly in the now widely shared understanding that adjudication is, fundamentally, an interpretive exercise. Even with this qualification, though, I think Hutchinson understates Gadamer's impact. Whatever may be true of Gadamer's influence in other disciplines, his influence in law has been unambiguously both broad and deep -- although it has come …

Montaigne And The Coherence Of Memory, Douglas Mcfarland
Montaigne And The Coherence Of Memory, Douglas Mcfarland
Quidditas
Among the many classical authorities to whom Montaigne refers either through direct reference or quotation, little attention has been paid to Lucan and to his contribution to the intellectual and rhetorical strategies of the Essais. Hugo Friedrich, for instance, in his chapter on Montaigne’s intellectual inheritance from the classical world, does not even mention Lucan’s name. Although Virgil, Lucretius, Plutarch, and several others clearly have influenced both the style and content of the Essais in seemingly more direct and overt ways, Montaigne, nevertheless, turns to Lucan consistently and with regularity. The essayist directly alludes to Lucan on three occasions …
Meter Change As A Relic Of Performance In The Middle English Romance Sir Beues, Linda Marie Zaerr
Meter Change As A Relic Of Performance In The Middle English Romance Sir Beues, Linda Marie Zaerr
Quidditas
Despite the paucity of direct evidence of performance, some form of public representation of the Middle English popular verse romances remains a possibility, and that possibility has been reached by extrapolation from a number of directions. The convergence of evidence, though indirect, has become convincing, and a new approach strengthens that likelihood even further. In an attempt to understand if and how the romances were performed, scholars have considered internal references to performance, historical documents of performance and audience, physical evidence from the manuscripts, cognitive theory, theory of orality and “mouvance,” and evidence from textual variants.

War Games: Odysseus At Troy, Corinne Ondine Pache
War Games: Odysseus At Troy, Corinne Ondine Pache
Classical Studies Faculty Research
This paper examines two aspects of Odysseus' behavior that fundamentally set him apart from the other Greek heroes in the Iliad. Odysseus at Troy superficially appears to share many traits with the other Homeric heroes: he is a prominent participant both in assemblies and in combat, and he takes part in many of the decisive episodes of the narrative. He shares in the kleos ("glory") of the other renowned warriors by association, but closer examination shows that he speaks and behaves in an idiosyncratic, often unconventional, manner, and that many of his words and deeds reflect a stance of …
Left Over Rights, Daria Roithmayr
Left Over Rights, Daria Roithmayr
Publications
This Essay focuses on Duncan Kennedy's argument for a "post-rights" position, in the wake of the earlier critical legal studies critique of rights and the ensuing response by Critical Race Theorists. I argue that, notwithstanding Kennedy's loss of faith in rights discourse, rights talk might still be pragmatically useful for communities of color to operate strategically within the accepted legal framework, or to subvert that framework in order to advance particular political commitments for particular communities of color at particular moments in history.
"I Am No Mean Player Myself": Games And Recreation In Irish Mythology, Julie Lynn Perenchio
"I Am No Mean Player Myself": Games And Recreation In Irish Mythology, Julie Lynn Perenchio
Masters Theses
Superhuman heroics in myth certainly succeed in capturing our immediate attention, but it takes a more human touch of talent and fallibility to make heroes personally appealing to readers. In Irish mythology, immortals and humans engage in a marvelous variety of recreational activities, and show universally-felt emotions and tendencies, like competitive spirits, creativity, and tenacity. Far from being idle entertainment, play makes significant impacts on the lives of Irish heroes, individually, socially, and culturally. For example, chess games, even between complete strangers, can cause the upheaval of one's lifestyle and test not only the intellectual powers of players, but also …
Delight, Subversion And Truth In The Canterbury Tales: Chaucer's Talking Birds, Terri Benson Blair
Delight, Subversion And Truth In The Canterbury Tales: Chaucer's Talking Birds, Terri Benson Blair
Masters Theses
Geoffrey Chaucer mentions birds over 240 times throughout The Canterbury Tales (Tatlock and Kennedy). This frequent allusion to birds is significant, especially since three of his twenty-four tales are actually about birds. What makes these three tales particularly fascinating is that their bird protagonists have the gift of speech. This study examines Chaucer's use of bird imagery in The Canterbury Tales, in particular, his use of talking birds in "The Squire's Tale," "The Nun's Priest's Tale" and "The Manciple's Tale." My theory is that Chaucer uses bird imagery and talking birds to question the sovereign power of the fourteenth-century …

Critical Fantasies: Structure Of Chinese Folk Tales, Saihanjula He
Masters Theses
Folk tales provide a unique source of information for cultural studies. They come from the people. Springing from the people's imagination in a social context, they carry historical truths, stir up political undercurrents, and reveal social facts that official history books will not and cannot tell. In a time when writing was a privileged form of expression, the oral folk tale popularly communicated the injustices committed by the upper class, and gave the powerless voices of their own. Common themes of folk tales all reflect, to various degrees, the people's desires to rise above environmental, cultural, social and class constraints …

On The Acquisition Of An Indefinite Determiner: Evidence For Unselective Binding, Claire Foley, Barbara Lust, David Battin, Annie Koehne, Katherine White
Faculty Research at Morehead State University
This paper investigates the contrast between quantificational and referential properties of the English indefinite determiner during the course of first language acquisition. · Various syntactic, semantic and pragmatic knowledge related to indefinites has previously been probed in the acquisition literature. (See Brown 1973, Maratsos 1976, Warden 1976, Emslie and Stevenson 1980, Zehler and Brewer 1982, Pine and Martindale 1986, Valian 1986, Gerken, Landau and Remez 1990, Philip 1995, Bohnacker 1997, and Burns and Soja 1997, among others.) However, to date, the contrast between referential-type and quantificational/variable-type interpretations of indefinites has not been extensively studied in first language acquisition. In this …

Race, Reason And Representation, Tayyab Mahmud
Faculty Articles
This is a review essay based on Uday Singh Mehta, Liberalism and Empire: A study in Nineteenth-Century British Liberal Thought (Chicago: The University of Chicago Press 1999). It evaluates the entanglement of liberalism with colonialism to highlight many fundamental contradictions inherent in projects of modernity and the way universal claims are often bound by particularistic imperatives. Liberalism could reconcile its agenda of liberty and representation with colonial subjugation only by positing race as the grounds for eligibility to rights. With the project of neo-liberal restructuring of the world underway, it is useful to recall the disjunction between the theory and …
