Abstract:
In his bookThe Dignity of Legislation,Jeremy Waldron bemoans the lack of attention legal philosophers have paid to legislatures and legislation. This oversight, Waldron suggests, has impoverished our understanding of legislatures as legal institutions, and has led jurisprudes to see only the “indignity of legislation.” Legal historians have hardly been more attentive, preferring to leave legislatures to political historians and political scientists. So although we have myriad studies of roll call votes, for example, we lack a genuine understanding of the legal history of legislatures or legislation. Our failure to appreciate the role of legislatures and legislation is especially characteristic of studies of the pre-Civil War period, a period in which the state has been famously described as a “state of courts and parties,” and characterized by the legislature's “decline of authority.” Even those who have uncovered a rich governmental theory and practice in the nineteenth century have focused more on courts and statutory interpretation. Willard Hurst criticized this inattention to the legal history of legislatures years ago, noting the “tendency to identify legal history with the history of courts and court-made doctrine.” Our court-centered approach has left us with only a partial understanding of the role of law in American history. “In order to see law in its relations to the society as a whole,” Hurst continued, “one must appraise all formal and informal aspects of political organized power— observe the functions of all agencies (legislative, executive, administrative, or judicial) and take account of the interplay of such agencies with voters and nonvoters, lobbyists and interest groups, politicians and political parties. This definition overruns traditional boundaries dividing the study of law from study of political history, political science, and sociology.”

Abstract:
Like many people, I knew John Hope Franklin long before we ever met. During an age when the disjuncture between public personal and private persona is usually jarring, part of the honor of being in his presence was the seamlessness between the man he presented himself to be and the man he was. Erudite and exacting yet gracious and generous in his writings and public appearances, Franklin brought those same virtues to the private gatherings I was privileged to witness and share with him.

Abstract:
You’ll Apologize If You Have To (2015), a short story by Ben Fowlkes, portrays the struggle of an American in pursuing his dreams. The primary data of this research is the narration and dialogues uttered by the characters: Wallace, Kim, Molly, the Old Lady, and the Green-Jacket Man. Those data are classified based on the American dreams (Adams, Franklin, Jefferson, Livingston, & Sherman, 2014; Cullen, 2003; Mailer, Thompson, & Wolfe, 2009), specifically those related to material wealth. The result of this research reveals that in their daily life, the characters have their perspectives on seeing America as the land of dreams. Generally, they dream of a better life and happiness. However, this short story also portrays American dreams as a paradox because not all Americans have the privilege to achieve those dreams.

Abstract:
Informed consent in research among people with intellectual and developmental disabilities presents challenges for inclusive research—some particular to the IDD community, and some shared with other vulnerable populations. This essay uses my experiences with qualitative research among the IDD community to raise questions about our understanding of consent and about the principle of justice (given the deep-seated inequalities of power and privilege that may exist between a researcher and someone with IDD). I draw on Franklin Miller and Alan Wertheimer’s fair transaction model of informed consent (a response to Ruth Faden and Tom Beauchamp’s autonomous authorization model) to reflect on how structural issues of injustice affect the possibility of fairness in consent transactions with people with IDD. The work of inclusive research requires identifying structural and organizational avenues that can improve fairness in informed consent and assent, as well as improve justice for the IDD community more broadly.

Full text
Abstract:
Hrabanus Maurus's Commentary on Matthew provides a lens through which to view the centrality of biblical studies to Carolingian reform initiatives. The commentary sits amid a burst of interest in Matthew's Gospel in the first quarter of the ninth century. It also occupies a central place in Hrabanus's program for clerical education and renewal. Hrabanus imagined the work as a user-friendly reference guide or introductory text and structured the commentary with highly sophisticated and complementary indexing, organizing, and searching features to privilege ease of use. Hrabanus's design allows for quick appreciation and simple interpretation of the Gospel's overall narrative structure, its principal episodes, and its individual verses. Moreover, Hrabanus took painstaking effort to document the numerous patristic sources upon which he drew in building the commentary, as well as to acknowledge when he contributed thoughts of his own. The manuscript record, epistolary remarks, sermon texts, and literary references — including in the vernacular — testify to broad dissemination and use of the commentary by Hrabanus's network of patrons, peers, and students across Frankish Europe. Attention to the structure, content, and influence of the commentary expands scholarly appreciation of Hrabanus's genius beyond his achievements as an abbot and bishop or as a prolific biblical exegete, to include resourcefulness and practicality in teaching. Moreover, the study illumines the close association Carolingian leaders saw between biblical studies and broader cultural renewal along with the networks connecting leaders across the Frankish world as they reflected upon and promoted reform.

Abstract:
Abstract Focusing on two speeches by Ukrainian President Zelensky (as well as related activities) this article examines the recent diplomatic “use” in the on-going Russo-Ukraine War of World War II memory. It suggests that the Ukrainian government has skilfully—and very deliberately—deployed historical memory in diplomacy focused on both the United States and United Kingdom, and it suggests that part of the success of such endeavours lies in two connected factors. The first concerns the privileged position of World War II in Anglo-American culture; and the second is centred on the personalities of the current US and UK leaders, one of whom (Boris Johnson) has a well-known affection for Churchill, and the other of whom (Joe Biden) has been keen to assume the mantle of Franklin Roosevelt. With this audience, President Zelensky’s decision to invoke World War II memory is both savvy and clearly effective.

Abstract:
This essay addresses and critiques attempts by politicians to legislate the language used to describe and therefore define women’s experience of sexual assault. What is written from the body changes the body and vice versa; what is performed turns back on itself changing word and body. Rep. Bobby Franklin (R-Marietta) wants to label me “accuser,” thereby erasing my assaulted body unless and until “there’s a conviction in the matter.” There was never a conviction in the matter of my case. So where does that leave me? He doesn’t want me to claim victimage, as if being a victim is somehow a privilege, a legal labeling granted on “proof” of the attack. The assaulted body is changed by the legal replacement of “victim” for “accuser.” The word tries to displace or erase the action from the agent and replace it with a burden of proof. So following a most heinous experience, as “accuser,” the woman must now carry the burden of proving herself, accounting not only for her own experience, but also, that it actually happened. Performative autoethnography offers a method of intervening upon legislated language assaults by speaking from the body with agency and ethical representation. The possibilities of deconstructing “accuser” and reconstructing research that offers a multiplicity of being in the body of assault offers argument to oppressive gender notions of violence. Performative autoethnography offers hope and efficacy in the doing.

Abstract:
“The Missionary: An Indian Tale” by Sydney Owenson (1811) a remarkable novel written in the backdrop of Spanish-Portuguese conflict in India, a haunting tale of cultural encounter and trans-racial romance set in early colonial India, deals with the theme of binary opposition between arrogance and patience. The Missionary focuses on the binary opposite relationship between Hilarion, a Portuguese missionary to India and Luxima, an Indian prophetess. Hilarion in the novel is presented as a colonizer who seems to be proud on his religion and intends to transform Luxima into Christian from Hindu whereas Luxima’s patience is privileged. Both are aristocratic, devoted to their religions, and biased against other cultures. The primary objective of this study is to analyze how the state of binary opposition between Hilarion’s arrogance and Luxima’s patience exists. The focus of this study is what made Hilarion to be converted in front of Luxima who was supposed to convert her. Owenson is saying that it is the subjectivity of Luxima that gets transferred to Hilarion but not vice versa. By valorizing Luxima’s subjectivity over Hilarion, the writer foregrounds the hidden value of the Hindu culture that gives emphasis not only upon the reason rather puts equal space for emotion. For this purpose the concepts of John Whale and Michael J. Franklin in used as a basic tool of textual analysis to prove its hypothesis. Journal of NELTA Surkhet Vol.4 2014: 98-104

Abstract Among the tradesmen of post-revolutionary Boston in the early days of the new charter was Duncan Campbell, a bookseller recently come from Glasgow. In 1693 he became Boston postmaster. A fellow Scots emigre, Governor Andrew Hamilton of New Jersey, headed the newly reorganized colonial postal system, which may have helped. As postmaster for the largest and most important seaport in British America, Campbell could make his office a center for more than the routine taking in and dispatching of other people’s mail. He had both the franking privilege and frequent contact with the masters of incoming ships who came to Boston with news in the form of hearsay reports and the London prints.

Abstract:
This chapter charts the earliest examples of African American involvement with golf, ranging from the eighteenth century to World War I. It argues that black people shaped the American game from its very beginning as caddies, players, and course designers in the South (like Joseph Bartholomew in New Orleans). It also explores how middle-class black players became some of the first golf enthusiasts of any race in northern cities, like George Franklin Grant (Boston) and Walter Speedy (Chicago). It concludes by introducing some of the first black professional players, including John Shippen, and analyzing their relationship with the early United States Golf Association (USGA) and Professional Golfers’ Association (PGA).

Abstract:
This chapter is based on the paradox that whereas the Carolingians used an imagined Frankish identity upon which to build their empire, the very expedient of highlighting this ethnic identity catalyzed the fragmentation of the empire as a whole. As the core was strengthened, more peripheral communities used those same mechanisms to find a voice of their own. During the rise of the Carolingian Empire, the new ruling dynasty dealt with the reality of Frankish and other identities within their realm by reinforcing a legal pluralism that had grown out of the Roman Empire and that had been further developed under their Merovingian predecessors. In this process, acts of legislation came to be much less legitimated by central authority or office. They were agreements between rulers and groups through which authority was acknowledged in exchange for the confirmation or grants of rights and privileges. The resulting interdependence of claims to ethnic identity and legal status, however, intensified in the context of the Carolingian rise to power. But the increasing politicization of ethnic traditions and communities, their legal rights and claims, also worked against the political integration of Carolingian rule. Regional elites emphasized their own customs and rights vis-à-vis the new Frankish kings. The imperial framework allowed for accommodation of all these different claims along with the variety of Frankish ones in a Christian-imperial framework.

Abstract:
This chapter explores the role of habeas corpus during World War II in the US and Great Britain. On the American side, the chapter details how suspension ruled in the Hawaiian Territory but the mass incarceration of Japanese Americans on the mainland followed in the absence of a suspension under Executive Order 9066. As the chapter details, this happened even though lawyers counselled President Franklin D. Roosevelt that doing so would violate the Suspension Clause. The chapter continues by contrasting the experience in Britain, where Prime Minister Winston Churchill led the push to retreat from its citizen detention program under Regulation 18B and restore a robust habeas privilege. The chapter also compares habeas decisions rendered by the high courts in both countries while asking larger questions about what can be learned from these events.

Abstract:
Innovation prizes were regularly sponsored by the Franklin Institute and other mechanics’ institutes throughout the United States. The analysis shows that administered innovation systems in the United States demonstrated the same endemic characteristics as their European counterparts. Unlike the more democratic nature of patent markets, the judges, participants, and winners belonged to wealthier and more privileged classes. Prize systems failed to induce the desired outcomes, and the allocation of awards was typically idiosyncratic and unrelated to characteristics of the invention. Their administration was rife with poor governance, and the administrative costs often exceeded the amounts being disbursed to inventors. Rather than providing effective inducements for novel inventive activity, prizes primarily served as marketing and publicity mechanisms for firms that wished to commercialize already existing innovations.

Abstract:
This chapter describes Barber’s close relationship with Italian conductor Arturo Toscanini. Barber would frequently visit the conductor in his home, most days ending with music. This friendship resulted in Toscanini requesting that Barber write a work for the newly formed NBC Symphony Orchestra. This was a rare privilege, as Toscanini in the past had ignored American composers. His broadcasts were received with much enthusiasm from audiences. Toscanini further advanced Barber’s career by bringing his music to Latin America, with Barber being the first American composer whose work reached those shores. For Toscanini, Barber composed Essay for Orchestra and arranged the second movement of his earlier string quartet as the Adagio for Strings, which brought him international fame and became, as it were, the national funeral music of the United States, associated with the deaths of such famous names as Albert Einstein, Franklin Roosevelt, and Grace Kelly and with the tragedy of September 11, 2001. The chapter also covers Barber’s unaccompanied choral works.

Abstract This chapter examines how President Franklin D. Roosevelt and Secretary of State Cordell Hull dealt with the fallout over protectionism prompted by the infamous Hawley-SmootTariff of 1930 and asserted the capitalist peace through a new trade law in 1934, called the Reciprocal Trade Agreements Act. The Great Depression necessitated the freeing of trade, but the United States had jacked up tariffs, and Great Britain, a key trade partner, had followed by creating a discriminatory network of imperial tariffs that privileged the British Empire and Commonwealth over outsiders like America. The decline in global trade undermined political willpower, particularly to halt the rise of fascism and militarism in Europe and Asia. The Reciprocal Trade Agreements Act was a cautious remedy to liberalizing, and expanding, world trade while not provoking the protectionists at home—though that effort had mixed results.

Abstract:
This chapter shows how the contradictions and frustrations surrounding veterans came to a head with the onset of the “Indian New Deal” initiated by Franklin D. Roosevelt's Indian commissioner, John Collier. As Collier pushed his agenda of reform and return to communal landholding on Indian reservations, patriotism became the privileged weapon of an active minority of veterans spearheading resistance to the New Deal. Moreover, World War II proved a very favorable moment to realize a rhetorical and organizational connection that linked patriotism, the conservative defense of Indians' civic rights, and the rising tide of termination. At the end of the 1940s, the World War I generation reached the peak of its influence in Indian country and demonstrated the complexity of Indian patriotism. A new generation of Indian soldiers was soon to take their place. They would turn ceremonies popularized with World War I into a new, modern Indian tradition.

Abstract:
Chapter 1 examines the sixth-century foundation of female monastic authority in Poitiers and its model created through artifacts of Radegund’s life written by Gregory of Tours, Venantius Fortunatus, and Baudonivia. Radegund’s biographies articulated her sanctity and established Radegund’s two strategies for protecting her monastery: first, she relied on networks of allies, primarily bishops and kings, to support her; and second, she created a set of cultural ideas, symbols, and materials that later nuns used to attach new allies to the Abbey. Radegund left two holy objects that became key elements in the abbess’s efforts to assert her authority: the True Cross relic and her own physical relics. Radegund sought to free Sainte-Croix’s abbesses from their local bishop and connect them, instead, to the bishop of Tours, Frankish kings, the Byzantine emperor, and the papacy, believing that this would strengthen Sainte-Croix. Documents Radegund secured began an archive of privileges crucial to the authority of future abbesses.

Abstract Hence do the men come whom we see distinguished in our times, in ministries, legislatures, presidencies, professorships, and the press? From the mass of humanity. Where will their children find them selves in times hereafter? Among the broad mass of the people. Here is where to find the first and last page in the life of each of our contemporaries. Those ancient, privileged castes that traversed centuries counting the number of their ancestors, that immortal name called Osuna, Joinville, or Orleans, has now fortunately disappeared.1 How the human multitude has had to purify itself in order to bring forth candidates who are named Pitt, Washington, Arago, Franklin, Lamartine, Dumas, and who are noblemen of their country and even kings of the world, without their elevation having cost a single sigh of pain!2 The old colonial families have disappeared in the Argentine Republic; in Chile, they still cling to the land and resist at the level of oblivion, which waits to swallow them up.
