Household-Level Predictors Of The Presence Of Servants In Northern Orkney, Scotland, 1851–1901, Julia Jennings, James W. Wood, Patricia L. Johnson Jan 2012

Household-Level Predictors Of The Presence Of Servants In Northern Orkney, Scotland, 1851–1901, Julia Jennings, James W. Wood, Patricia L. Johnson

Anthropology Faculty Scholarship

Servants were an important part of the northwestern European household economy in the preindustrial past. This study examines household-level characteristics that are predictive of the presence of rural servants using data from Orkney, Scotland. The number of servants present in a household is related to household composition, landholding size, and the marital status of the household head. In addition, the sex of the particular servant hired reveals that the labor of male and female servants is not fungible. The sex of the servant hired is related to the ratio of male and female household members of working age, the occupation …

Overinterpreting Law, Robert F. Blomquist Jan 2012

Overinterpreting Law, Robert F. Blomquist

Law Faculty Publications

Overinterpretation has attracted considerable attention in other fields, such as literary studies, science, and rhetoric, but it is undertheorized in law. This Article attempts to initiate a theory of legal overinterpretation by examining the rhetorical nature of excess, the sociological dimensions of roles in team performances, and citation to legal and non-legal sources that have discussed overinterpretation. The Article concludes by positing illustrative categories of potential legal overinterpretation, and providing an examination of ways to minimize legal overinterpretation through a judicious, pragmatic balance between abstract considerations and concrete considerations in law.

Weighing In: Coping With Stigmatization Through The Fat Acceptance Movement And Weight Loss Surgery, Jaelyn L. Forthun
