Book Description
Longarm’s got his eyes on justice, and his hands on the Defense! As a US Deputy Marshal, Custis Long has gone after more than his fare share of trouble. But when trouble runs right into him—wearing a blood-stained night gown no less—he knows he’ll be in for quite a ride. It seems the wealthy silver mine owner Jericho Malone has just been stabbed to death in his own home, and his blood is on the night gown of his young, attractive second wife Estelle. Malone’s daughter always suspected that Estelle would sink to any level to get at their father’s money, and there’s an eye witness who swears he found her lying on the body, clutching the impaled knife in her hands. So when her defense lawyer up and collapses on the court room floor, it looks like then end of the line for Mrs. Malone. But with Longarm’s particular talent for persuading the fairer sex, Mrs. Malone has another lawyer in no time—a real fine darling of defense—and Longarm is there to make sure justice is served.

No Medium
Author: Craig Dworkin
Publisher: MIT Press
ISBN: 0262527553
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 228
Book Description
Close readings of ostensibly “blank” works—from unprinted pages to silent music—that point to a new understanding of media. In No Medium, Craig Dworkin looks at works that are blank, erased, clear, or silent, writing critically and substantively about works for which there would seem to be not only nothing to see but nothing to say. Examined closely, these ostensibly contentless works of art, literature, and music point to a new understanding of media and the limits of the artistic object. Dworkin considers works predicated on blank sheets of paper, from a fictional collection of poems in Jean Cocteau's Orphée to the actual publication of a ream of typing paper as a book of poetry; he compares Robert Rauschenberg's Erased De Kooning Drawing to the artist Nick Thurston's erased copy of Maurice Blanchot's The Space of Literature (in which only Thurston's marginalia were visible); and he scrutinizes the sexual politics of photographic representation and the implications of obscured or obliterated subjects of photographs. Reexamining the famous case of John Cage's 4'33”, Dworkin links Cage's composition to Rauschenberg's White Paintings, Ken Friedman's Zen for Record (and Nam June Paik's Zen for Film), and other works, offering also a “guide to further listening” that surveys more than 100 scores and recordings of “silent” music. Dworkin argues that we should understand media not as blank, base things but as social events, and that there is no medium, understood in isolation, but only and always a plurality of media: interpretive activities taking place in socially inscribed space.

Cultural Heritage and International Law
Author: Evelyne Lagrange
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319787896
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 289
Book Description
This book explores the objects, means and ends of international cultural heritage protection. It starts from a broad conception of cultural heritage that encompasses both tangible property, such as museum objects or buildings, and intangible heritage, such as languages and traditions. Cultural heritage thus defined is protected by various legal regimes, including the law of armed conflicts, UNESCO Conventions and international criminal law. With a view to strengthening international protection, the authors analyze existing regimes and elaborate innovative concepts, such as blue helmets of culture and safe havens for endangered cultural heritage. Finally, the ends of international protection come to the fore, and the authors address possible conflicts between protecting cultural diversity and wishes to strengthen cultural identity.
