Why Is There No Russian Atticus Finch? Or Even A Russian Rumpole?, Michael Newcity

Texas Wesleyan Law Review

The purpose of this Article is to examine how the pre- and postreform nineteenth-century Russian legal institutions were reflected in literature of that time and to analyze why the literary theme that has been so common and strong in Anglophonic literature-the lawyer, judge, and jury as hero-never appeared in Russia.

Taking Ian Watt To Court, Or How Do Jurors Read Stories?, Marco Wan

Texas Wesleyan Law Review

In his seminal work, The Rise of the Novel, Ian Watt posits an analogy between the readers of a novel and the members of a jury.This comparison has formed the foundation for much subsequent work on law-and-literature. Alexander Welsh, for example, begins his analysis of Tom Jones with Watt's analogy, which he finds "fully warranted." Given its centrality in our field, it is necessary to examine Watt's claim more closely. In this paper, I will test his analogy between reader and juror by bringing it into dialogue with a mid-Victorian novel, William Thackeray's Vanity Fair. I will then argue against …

Harry Potter And The Law, Jeffrey E. Thomas, James Charles Smith, Danaya Wright, Benjamin H. Barton, Aaron Schwabach

Texas Wesleyan Law Review

This collection of essays about the law and Harry Potter explores the intersections between law, culture, and the Harry Potter stories. The collection begins with a group of essays, consistent with some of the previous legal literature, about the limitations of law and legal institutions as depicted in the Harry Potter narratives. The essays by James Charles Smith and Danaya Wright begin by considering the depiction of families in the narratives, and show the limited role of law for family relationships. The essay by Benjamin H. Barton considers a more legalistic institution, the Ministry of Magic, an institution depicted with …

The Rose Man Of Sing Sing: A True Tale Of Life, Murder, And Redemption In The Age Of Yellow Journalism, James M. Morris

History

Today, seventy-three years after his death, journalists still tell tales of Charles E. Chapin. As city editor of Pulitzer’s New York Evening World , Chapin was the model of the take-no-prisoners newsroom tyrant: he drove reporters relentlessly—and kept his paper in the center ring of the circus of big-city journalism. From the Harry K. Thaw trial to the sinking of the Titanic , Chapin set the pace for the evening press, the CNN of the pre-electronic world of journalism.

In 1918, at the pinnacle of fame, Chapin’s world collapsed. Facing financial ruin, sunk in depression, he decided to kill himself …

Analysis Of Gaits For A Rotating Tripedal Robot, Damian M. Lyons, Kiran Pamnany

Faculty Publications

A goal of robotics has been to develop mechanisms that have the efficiency and speed of wheeled robots with the terrain flexibility of legged robots. In previous work, we have proposed a unique three-legged mechanism, the rotopod, designed to integrate these two useful approaches to locomotion. In this paper, we present an analysis of the variety of gaits that can be exhibited by the rotopod. We present examples of many of these gaits and discuss their potential use. A trajectory generation algorithm is presented that can be used to generate point to point trajectories using one of three different styles …

Input Aggregation In Models Of Data Envelopment Analysis: A Statistical Test With An Application To Indian Manufacturing, Subhash C. Ray

Economics Working Papers

A problem frequently encountered in Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is that the total number of inputs and outputs included tend to be too many relative to the sample size. One way to counter this problem is to combine several inputs (or outputs) into (meaningful) aggregate variables reducing thereby the dimension of the input (or output) vector. A direct effect of input aggregation is to reduce the number of constraints. This, in its turn, alters the optimal value of the objective function. In this paper, we show how a statistical test proposed by Banker (1993) may be applied to test the …

Economics Working Papers

The Entrepreneurial Theory Of The Firm And The Theory Of The Entrepreneurial Firm, Richard N. Langlois

Economics Working Papers

The entrepreneurial theory of the firm argues that entrepreneurship, properly understood, is a crucial but neglected element in explaining the nature and boundaries of the firm. By contrast, the theory of the entrepreneurial firm presumably seeks not to understand the nature and boundaries of "the firm" in general but rather to understand a particular type of firm: one that is entrepreneurial. This paper is an attempt to reconcile the two. After briefly delving for the concept of entrepreneurship in the work of Schumpeter, Kirzner, and (especially) Knight, the paper makes the case for the entrepreneurial theory of the firm. In …
