Book Description
Excerpt from A Report of Some Proceedings on the Commission of Oyer and Terminer and Goal Delivery: For the Trial of the Rebels in the Year 1746 in the County of Surry, and of Other Crown Cases I now submit to Publick Censure a Report of a few Crown Cases which for the most Part have fallen within my own Observation, and in which I have taken some Share. What other Notes I have taken meerly for my own Use, are too crude and imperfect to admit of a Publication; and as I have neither Leisure nor Inclination to revise them, They will never see the Light. I have in this Report taken a larger Scope, and entered more fully into the State of many of the Cases and the Reasoning on them, than most of my Cotemporaries have done; and this hath drawn Me into a greater Length than They have allowed to themselves. Brevity I have endeavoured to consult as far as my Subject will admit of it. But the Affectation of Brevity at the Expence of Perspicuity can answer no valuable Purpose. Learned Men who have employed their Time in transmitting to Posterity with Accuracy, Precision and true Judgment an History of Cases of Weight and Difficulty falling within their own Experience, have been real Benefactors to the Publick; and their Memory is and ever will be treated with due Esteem.

Free Trade and Sailors' Rights in the War of 1812
Author: Paul A. Gilje
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1107355109
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 439
Book Description
On 2 July 1812, Captain David Porter raised a banner on the USS Essex proclaiming 'a free trade and sailors rights', thus creating a political slogan that explained the War of 1812. Free trade demanded the protection of American commerce, while sailors' rights insisted that the British end the impressment of seamen from American ships. Repeated for decades in Congress and in taverns, the slogan reminds us today that the second war with Great Britain was not a mistake. It was a contest for the ideals of the American Revolution bringing together both the high culture of the Enlightenment to establish a new political economy and the low culture of the common folk to assert the equality of humankind. Understanding the War of 1812 and the motto that came to explain it – free trade and sailors' rights – allows us to better comprehend the origins of the American nation.

Framing Disease
Author: Charles E. Rosenberg
Publisher: Rutgers University Press
ISBN: 9780813517575
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 360
Book Description
Many diseases discussed here--endstage renal disease, rheumatic fever, parasitic infectious diseases, coronary thrombosis--came to be defined, redefined, and renamed over the course of several centuries. As these essays show, the concept of disease has also been used to frame culturally resonant behaviors: suicide, homosexuality, anorexia nervosa, chronic fatigue syndrome. Disease is also framed by public policy, as the cases of industrial disability and of forensic psychiatry demonstrate. Medical institutions, as managers of people with disease, come to have vested interests in diagnoses, as the histories of facilities to treat tuberculosis or epilepsy reveal. Ultimately, the existence and conquest of disease serves to frame a society's sense of its own "healthiness" and to give direction to social reforms.
