Full text
Abstract:
This commentary focuses on Article 2.1.17 of the UNIDROIT Principles of International Commercial Contracts (PICC) concerning the merger clauses of a contract. The parties to international commercial transactions often insert a merger clause (‘entire agreement’, ‘integration’, or ‘four corner clause’) in their contracts. For Art 2.1.17 to apply, the contract and the merger clause must be in writing. A contract in writing which contains a clause indicating that the writing completely embodies the terms on which the parties have agreed cannot be contradicted or supplemented by evidence of prior statements or agreements. However, such statements or agreements may be used to interpret the writing. By codifying a rule on their validity and legal effects, the PICC broke fresh ground and served as a model for later projects for the harmonization of contract law.

Full text
Abstract:
Chapter 36 considers issues that result from the incompleteness of a contract. In economic theory a complete contract is a contract that specifies the parties’ rights, duties, and remedies under every possible state of the world. Under this conception every contract is incomplete, because it would be prohibitively expensive to delineate the effect of all possible future states and the consequences of each state. In contract law the term incomplete contract means a contract that is gappy or indefinite in important respects. The law on incomplete contracts concerns when a contract has too many gaps or is too indefinite to enforce, when and how a court should fill gaps in a contract, what is the effect of a provision in an agreement that contemplates the later execution of a final contract, and when is there a duty to negotiate in good faith to make an incomplete contract sufficiently complete or to reach a contemplated final contract.

Thomas, Emily. Later British Reactions to Absolutism: 1690–1704. Oxford University Press, 2018. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780198807933.003.0009.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter considers British reactions to absolutism between the 1690 publication of Locke’s Essay and the 1704 delivery of Clarke’s Boyle lectures. These reactions tended to focus on absolutism about space rather than time, and they were extremely mixed. Thinkers such as William King, Joseph Raphson, Richard Bentley, and John Keill adopt absolutism about time, duration, or space. Their absolutisms draw on various sources, including Gassendi, Henry More, and Newton. Of these absolutisms, the Newtonian strain would prove the most influential. In contrast to these early advocates, thinkers such as Richard Burthogge, John Sergeant, and John Toland reject absolutism, advancing a variety of metaphysical and theological worries.

Full text
Abstract:
Herder uses the image of the spherical shape of the earth as a matrix to evaluate the contrast between plurality and universality: it illustrates the tension between the individuality of diverse peoples and cultures, on the one hand, and the universal identity of the human species, on the other. While Herder’s “globe ontology” implies a rejection of hierarchically structured—and thus normatively laden—theories of history and culture, it does rely on an idea of humanity as a telos embedded in western thinking. Thus at the end of the Ideen Herder praises the glory of Europe, while at the same time acknowledging the value of each individual people. This essay demonstrates that while Herder might think in oppositions, it is precisely this feature of his philosophy that enables him to advance a nuanced and innovative position that goes beyond many historiographical and cultural-theoretical conceptions of the eighteenth century.

Full text
Abstract:
Research programs regularly compete to achieve the same goal, such as the discovery of the structure of DNA or the construction of a TEA laser. The more the competing programs share information, the faster the goal is likely to be reached, to society’s benefit. But the “priority rule”—the scientific norm according to which the first program to reach the goal in question must receive all the credit for the achievement—provides a powerful disincentive for programs to share information. How, then, is the clash between social and individual interest resolved in scientific practice? This chapter investigates what Robert Merton called science’s “communist” norm, which mandates universal sharing of knowledge, and uses mathematical models of discovery to argue that a communist regime may be on the whole advantageous and fair to all parties, and so might be implemented by a social contract that all scientists would be willing to sign.

Abstract:
Assume that A and B make a contract. Call this the first contract or the parol agreement. Later, A and B make a second contract, in writing, which does not contradict, but relates to the same subject matter, as the first contract. Later still, A sues B for breach of the first contract and B defends on the ground that the second written agreement superseded or discharged the first contract, although it did not explicitly so provide. Under the parol evidence rule B will prevail unless an exception to the rule applies. Chapter 38 examines that rule.

Abstract:
Both oral history and what has come to be known as “reminiscence work” acquired a public profile around the same time, during the 1970s and early 1980s, in Europe and North America. This article focuses on the importance of remembrance in later life. For oral history, remembering is seen as a means to an end. By contrast, reminiscence work fixes on the process, the social interactions and changes brought about by engaging in remembering. Reminiscence work continues to be discovered and applied by practitioners and researchers without much awareness of its history and origins. A case study from the United Kingdom serves as an example. Remembrance helps in generating individual and social change which comes along gradually. The search for an evidence base for interventions has costs attached. All of this has tended to take over the nature of evaluations and outcomes of reminiscence and life review.

Abstract:
Identifications of animal remains from southern African Stone Age sites are complicated by the abundancy of taxa, skeletal differences, a wide variety of habitats, and the fragmented condition of most of the bone samples. Studies in osteomorphology and osteometry are essential. There are regional variations in species sizes combined with changes in bone sizes within and between taxa. Seasonality and animal migrations are demonstrated in the highlands of Lesotho and the semi-arid Karoo. Faunal studies of Sibudu and Bushman Rock Shelter show the contrast between two rock shelters that are geographically separated but overlap in occupation periods.

Abstract:
This book examines the proprietary protection of the key forms of proprietary interests arising in commercial transactions. The focus is on the so-called lesser proprietary interests, interests which are less than absolute interests and are created in favour of suppliers of goods under a contract of sale with title-based interests and consensual security interests. The book considers tracing, the process of identifying an asset later in time in relation to an asset earlier in time. Chapters discuss the legal structure of proprietary interests, the ways in which those proprietary interests are lost, how new assets can derive from other assets, the default rules governing proprietary interests in derived assets outside contract and outside misapplication of assets, and the issues with contracts that provide for proprietary interests in derived assets. The book also analyses issues that arise from proprietary claims to derived assets where the originally held asset was misapplied.

Abstract:
Color assimilation, also known as the Von Bezold spreading effect, is the phenomenon in which the perceived color of a region shifts toward that of its neighbor. This chapter describes the traditional form of color assimilation as well as three “special cases” where the effects are particularly dramatic: the chromatic White’s Effect, Monnier and Shevell’s ring patterns, and neon-color spreading. Three potential causes of color assimilation are discussed: neural blurring, contrast normalization, and perceptual layer decomposition. All three of these could contribute to White’s Effect, and their relation to the other two cases are also discussed. Discussion on assimilation versus contrast and the effect of simulation contrast is included, and several figures are provided that illustrate the concepts.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter discusses the arable field systems of the later medieval period and the demographic and social changes that lay behind their expansion, contraction, and enclosure. Field systems across the country are contrasted, the north of England and Scotland being less well understood. This was not a period of stasis, as has sometimes been implied. Instead, there was regional variation and change over time. The period before the Black Death contrasts provides evidence for the expansion and intensification of farming in the form of assarting, the sub-division of holdings, agricultural improvement, and the creation of new fields, including the reclamation of wetland landscapes for which there is significant evidence from landscape archaeology. After the Black Death agriculture contracted, arable was put down to grass, and direct demesne farming reduced. By the close of the period, a complex variety of field systems and land tenures existed across Britain.

Abstract:
This chapter develops the contrast between Musonius Rufus and Dio of Prusa in their mode of self-representation. The later Stoics Seneca, Musonius Rufus, and Epictetus embrace a low-authority profile and recommend discretion for the philosopher (recommendations which Marcus Aurelius adopts in his own manner). In doing so they consciously resist the traditional status markers without giving up altogether on the notion of socio-political responsibility. Dio, on the other hand, in his role as public speaker makes full use of these status markers in the hope of increasing his effectiveness (as does Plutarch to some extent in his works on practical philosophy). Hence the contrast represents a cultural dilemma.

Abstract:
This article appears in theOxford Handbook of New Audiovisual Aestheticsedited by John Richardson, Claudia Gorbman, and Carol Vernallis. The most successful superheroes of modern cinema are Superman and Batman. This chapter considers the changes wrought by digital technology in their cinematic construction and the impact on their music. The relationship between action, heroic theme, and the iconography of the superhero demonstrates a significant shift in how thematic music is employed in the more recentBatmanandSupermanfilms. This chapter contrasts musical and visual construction of the title characters inSuperman(Richard Donner, 1978) andBatman(Tim Burton, 1989) with the treatment of the same characters inBatman Begins(Christopher Nolan, 2005) andSuperman Returns(Bryan Singer, 2006). The problem of superheroic action and the musical solutions that analog films employed to address the limitations on representing the superheroes’ abilities is then contrasted with the subsequent decoupling of heroic action and musical theme in the later films, in which digital technology allows more convincing presentation of superheroic powers.

Gray, Benjamin. A Later Hellenistic Debate about the Value of Classical Athenian Civic Ideals? Oxford University Press, 2018. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780198748472.003.0008.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter argues that the later Hellenistic period (c.150 BCE–1 BCE) was a period of intense disagreement about Classical Athenian civic ideals, which can be partly reconstructed through comparison of epigraphic, historiographical, and philosophical sources. Some later Hellenistic Greeks championed the more community-centred and utopian aspects of Classical Athenian political culture, both democratic and philosophical, as a way of insisting on equality and solidarity in contemporary politics. In an opposing camp, Polybius and certain Stoics explicitly reacted against those same community-centred Classical Athenian ideals, arguing instead for ideals which gave more scope to competition and self-interest, within the bounds of firm contracts, rules, and property-rights. The chapter suggests that the debate it identifies came to a head in Athens in 88 BCE, when a Peripatetic tyrant seized power in Athens, and in subsequent responses to those events, especially Posidonius’ account of them.
