Ethical Considerations Concerning Contacts By Counsel Or Investigators With Present And Former Employees Of An Opposing Party The Sixth Annual Symposium On Legal Malpractice And Professional Responsibility., James L. Burt, Jeremy J. Cook

St. Mary's Law Journal

Present and former employees of an opposing party are often the best source of information concerning that party’s activities. Contact with these employees or their representatives may be considered ethical or unethical depending on the circumstances. Unfortunately, the rules governing such contacts are neither clear nor consistent. The first issue lawyers must resolve is whether the present and former employees are considered “represented” under Rule 4.2 of the Model Rules of Professional Conduct. If they are “unrepresented” for purposes of Rule 4.2, the issue then becomes whether Rule 4.3 applies. Of grave importance are the potential sanctions, which include the …

The research that does exist clearly suggests that classroom teachers might use repeated readings of poetry to help students …

Teatro: Revista de Estudios Escénicos / A Journal of Theater Studies

El presente artículo expone cómo dos estructuralismos divergentes se aproximan al hecho literario: Formalismo Ruso y Círculo Lingüístico de Praga con una orientación lingüística y Estructuralismo Genético, con una orientación marxista. El primero creando en la lengua literaria y en el paradigma de la literariedad sus bases epistémicas, y el segundo promoviendo la explicación de la obra mediante la comprensión del entorno cultural en el que nace, ligando lo que los primeros habían concebido netamente en campos separados.

"Locus Del Ser": Numeración Y Precisión Formal En Las Obras De Samuel Beckett, Robert Scanlan, Diego Santos Sánchez Jan 2007

"Locus Del Ser": Numeración Y Precisión Formal En Las Obras De Samuel Beckett, Robert Scanlan, Diego Santos Sánchez

Teatro: Revista de Estudios Escénicos / A Journal of Theater Studies

En el presente trabajo se presenta el modelo de análisis del «locus del ser»; ejemplificado a través del comentario de Rough for Theatre Il, dicho modelo establece una clara distinción entre lo que es un personaje y lo que es un locus del ser, instancia que distingue las obras de teatro de las literarias. Se propone una lectura atenta al texto que recupere todas estas conciencias desplazadas, sin las cuales la puesta en escena no alcanza la plenitud prevista por el autor.

This paper presents the «locus of being» model for dramaturgical analysis, a method that establishes a distinction …

La Guerra Como Motivo Y La Estrategia Ceremonial En Guernica, De Fernando Arrabal, Diego Santos Sánchez

Teatro: Revista de Estudios Escénicos / A Journal of Theater Studies

En el artículo se emplea la Teoría de Motivos y Estrategias, herramienta del GIAE, para realizar un análisis formal y temático de Guernica, obra de Fernando Arrabal sobre el bombardeo al que se vio sometida la ciudad homónima. Entendida como un lenguaje basado en la repetición, la ilogicidad y el carácter colectivo, la ceremonia se muestra como la estrategia adecuada para vehicular la conciencia alienada del autor respecto a la guerra .

El estudio expone los «motivos» que llevan a un autor, situado tradicionalmente dentro de la generación realista del teatro de los años sesenta, a plantearse en esta obra una «estrategia escénica» más cercana al teatro de ruptura y con un lenguaje escénico distante de los cánones

de la estética realista.

Teatro: Revista de Estudios Escénicos / A Journal of Theater Studies

Análisis de la obra Triple salto mortal con pirueta, de Jesús Campos García, en relación con la alta comedia. La confrontación de los distintos elementos de esta obra - espacio escénico, tiempo, estructura dramática, etc. - con sus correspondientes en dicho género, pone de manifiesto que estamos ante una deconstrucción del mismo. La estrategia comunicativa del autor ha consistido en utilizar los mecanismos de este género, del que tradicionalmente se ha servido un sector de la sociedad para reafirmar su visión del mundo, para .cuestionar precisamente esta visión del mundo. El resultado es una obra en la que la …


Motivos Y Estrategias: Introducción A Una Teoría De Los Lenguajes Escénicos Contemporáneos, Ángel Berenguer Jan 2007

Motivos Y Estrategias: Introducción A Una Teoría De Los Lenguajes Escénicos Contemporáneos, Ángel Berenguer

Teatro: Revista de Estudios Escénicos / A Journal of Theater Studies

En este artículo el autor se plantea la necesidad de avanzar en los estudios teatrales hacia un paradigma crítico que responda a cuestiones fundamentales partiendo de posiciones propias, aunque ligadas a las últimas posiciones de Lucien Goldmann en sus publicaciones póstumas. Para ello, se centra en el Teatro como expresión espectacular del YO (del autor, del director, del actor, etc.) en el mundo contemporáneo y lo pone en relación con las teorías socio-políticas de Karl Popper y los recientes descubrimientos de la neurociencia, especialmente de la neurobiología de Elkonon Goldberg.

Teatro: Revista de Estudios Escénicos / A Journal of Theater Studies

Su autor revisa la génesis del concepto y recorre su evolución e implementación en la sociedad occidental.

Experiences Of Assessment Using Multiple Choice Questions On A First Year Engineering Module In Electrical Engineering, Aidan O'Dwyer Jan 2007

Experiences Of Assessment Using Multiple Choice Questions On A First Year Engineering Module In Electrical Engineering, Aidan O'Dwyer

Conference papers

This contribution will report on, and evaluate, the use of multiple-choice questions, in both continuous assessment and terminal examination modes, on a first year module in electrical engineering at Dublin Institute of Technology. The author’s experiences are that multiple-choice questions tend to be student friendly (e.g. given a choice in a terminal examination, students will opt to attempt the questions with multiple choice parts). The author has used the assessment method over three academic years, and some assessment data is reported and analysed in the contribution. The pedagogical approach is explicitly pragmatic.

Reading Strategies For Struggling Readers In The Middle School, Kathleen Claeys Jan 2007

Reading Strategies For Struggling Readers In The Middle School, Kathleen Claeys

Graduate Research Papers

This literature review focuses on several strategies good readers use to understand and interpret different types of text, such as fiction, non-fiction, and expository. These strategies are ones that struggling readers are not aware of, or these readers do not have the knowledge and experience to utilize the strategies. Teachers need to provide direct instruction of these strategies, generate models of what they look like, demonstrate what the thought process is behind the strategies, and offer students practice in using them with the idea that students will add them to their repertoire of strategies and use them throughout the learning …

From Dream To Reality: A Study Of British Migration To Western Australia In The 1960s, With Special Emphasis On Those Who Travelled On The Ss Castel Felice, Hilda June Caunt

Theses

This work is a unique contribution to the history of Western Australia. Over a million people left the British Isles to migrate to Australia during the 1960s. One hundred thousand migrants, not all of whom were British, came on the Castel Felice, one of the many ships travelling between Europe and Australia in the post-war movement of peoples. My thesis addresses the question of what motivated those who left Britain to do so at that time, for in Britain there were improving housing conditions, generally full employment, an impressive national social security system and the active social experience of the …

Criticism Lighting His Fire: Perspectives On Jim Morrison From The Los Angeles Free Press, Down Beat, And The Miami Herald, Melissa Ursula Dawn Goldsmith Jan 2007

Criticism Lighting His Fire: Perspectives On Jim Morrison From The Los Angeles Free Press, Down Beat, And The Miami Herald, Melissa Ursula Dawn Goldsmith

LSU Master's Theses

Jim Morrison, lead singer of The Doors, transcended his mythical personae through the band's songs, his poems, and works about him. Morrison's cult continues today, through pilgrimages to his grave (a major tourist attraction in Paris), Oliver Stone's film The Doors (1991), videos on YouTube.com, rediscoveries of already released recordings, and new discoveries of unreleased recordings, lost films, and unpublished manuscripts of Morrison's poetry. Fans, filmmakers, photographers, the music industry, writers, and members of The Doors have cultivated him into their icon, hierophant, and God. But does myth construction about Morrison possess any goals, continuity, or direction? The music was …
