Abstract:

This final chapter of Music as Creative Practice addresses a variety of contexts that shape practices of creative music-making. Topics include the prodigy phenomenon from Mozart to Michael Jackson; long-term relationships of creative intimacy, with a case study of Elgar; the teaching of creative performance, including issues of the relationship between tacit and explicit knowledge; the application of ideas of originality and innovation to music, leading to a critical analysis of copyright in music; and repetition, traditionally regarded as the opposite of creativity, but in music an illustrati

Abstract:

Of thirteen extant species of true badger, eleven have a distribution in Asia, as do the more loosely affiliated stink- and honey-badgers. Even though these badgers show superficial similarities, they exhibit very different societies, even within same species under different circumstances, and provide an informative model to advance understanding of socio-ecology. They illustrate how group-living is promoted by natal philopatry, and food security; enabled by omnivory and hibernation in cold-winter regions. Conversely predatory, carnivorous species, and those competing for food security within

Abstract:

This chapter analyzes and compares different forms of attorney compensation, namely contingent, conditional, and hourly fees. It focuses on the risk-sharing, screening, and incentive aspects these different contractual forms give rise to. It finds that each contractual form has its virtues, depending on the special circumstances of the relationship between the attorney and his client. In particular, the distribution of information turns out to be crucial. The message is, therefore, that there should be freedom of contract between the client and her lawyer: let them choose the contractual form

Abstract:

This chapter discusses the Bermuda Form occurrence definition. The occurrence definition has historically served a dual function. It describes the nature of the event or circumstance subject to coverage in general. It also determines and conclusively establishes the link between (1) the injury or damage from which the legal liability alleged against the insured arises, and (2) the specific policy and policy period that may respond and provide an indemnity to an insured in respect of its liability for that claim. In the Bermuda Forms, the occurrence definition is an amalgam or hybrid creature,

Abstract:

Judgements of well-being across different circumstances and spheres of life exhibit a staggering diversity in the standards against which well-being is evaluated. This chapter considers three ways of interpreting this diversity: first, denying the legitimacy of this diversity by circumscribing the concept of well-being within a narrow domain of the most general evaluation (Circumscription); second, treating well-being as semantically invariant but differentially realisable (Differential Realisation); and third, allowing that the very meaning of well-being expressions varies with circumstances

So it was that shifting events in late spring 2011 and early 2012 produced some different outcomes than what Marzia, Jamila, and the author had expected during their talks in the year before. For Marzia, the changes were more dramatic than her marriage. For Jamila, new cir

Abstract:

There were many ‘contact zones’ between Greek and other peoples in antiquity, and many forms of exchange between them took place here, including trade and intermarriage. The texts discussed in this book were composed in and for many different circumstances, but they are united by their presentation of culture in this way: not as bounded and protected, but as interstitial and liminal. The novel thus expresses a different way of ‘being Greek’ to that of much mainstream Greek literature.

Resilience is the human capacity to deal with stress, adversities, and threats—and somehow emerge stronger.

This chapter applies the Leadership Capital Index (LCI) to Canada, focusing on the experience of two recent prime ministers, Paul Martin and Stephen Harper. While leadership capital may initially seem less important in the Canadian system, where leaders appear all-powerful with few party or parliamentary restraints, it remains important in explaining how leaders adapt, or fail to adapt, to their circumstances. The chapter contrasts two recent prime ministers, Stephen Harper and Paul Martin, and demonstrates their very different accumulation and spending of leadership capital. Martin came into

This commentary analyses Article 11.1.9 of the UNIDROIT Principles of International Commercial Contracts (PICC) concerning the apportionment of shares among joint and several obligors. In a contractual setting, joint and several obligations arise from a common commitment of all the obligors towards the obligee or from separate commitments by each obligor acting in the knowledge of the other commitments. In general, it is not for the obligee to decide which of the obligors in the end has to bear the burden of the performance. Accordingly, all legal systems provide for an apportionment among the

It is argued that different cities are able to cope with different levels of this challenge and that in Amsterdam, the Milkshake city, all three levels are met in a process of mutual assimilation and the formation of hybrid personalities.

Pierre Bayle was a defender of toleration whose distinctive contribution was to show that the limits of religious toleration could not coherently be drawn by an appeal to religious truth. In circumstances in which the truth of the matter was at issue, any such move would lead its advocate to beg the question: an appeal to religious truth could not help adjudicate a dispute about religious truth. The wider implication of this is that the limits to toleration cannot be drawn by appeal to moral truth either—at least in circumstances in which moral truth is disputed.

These journals injected high moral purpose, historical perspective, and philosophical reflection into political debate in order to give strength to those whose millenarian hopes had not been realized.
