His "*"*• way led past the hardware store and he stopped to see what was new in the sporting goods display. Happening to glance into the store, he saw a lounger snatch a pocketknife from a rack and conceal it in his coat pocket. The Average Citizen was outraged; bustling into the store he called the proprietor and told him about it, pointing out the culprit who lingered by the counter. Mr. Citizen and the owner accosted the The Angler thief and held him until a policeman could be called. In jig-time the scoundrel was on his way to jail and the Average Citizen was re­ ceiving the owner's thanks for his prompt, public-spirited action. Later that morning, a friend called on the Average Citizen. Both were ardent quail hunters and the talk soon turned to the late quail *he Brook Trout 3 season. The friend passed on some information about a certain locality Heddon Fish Flashes where, he said, a mutual acquaintance had reported getting his limit easily one day. The Average Citizen laughed. ^r°ut Fishing Tactics 4 "You don't know how Jim got his limit so fast? He slipped in on By Donald S. Shiner the refuge.

  • The Pleasure of the Intertext: Towards a Cognitive Poetics of Adaptation
    !1 THE PLEASURE OF THE INTERTEXT: TOWARDS A COGNITIVE POETICS OF ADAPTATION A dissertation presented by Meg Tarquinio to The Department of English In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the field of English Northeastern University Boston, Massachusetts April, 2017 !2 THE PLEASURE OF THE INTERTEXT: TOWARDS A COGNITIVE POETICS OF ADAPTATION by Meg Tarquinio ABSTRACT OF DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English Literature in the College of Social Sciences and Humanities of Northeastern University April, 2017 !3 ABSTRACT The field of adaptation studies has been diagnosed as lacking consensus around its main tenets, especially those that would build a strong ontological foundation. This study participates in the burgeoning critical approach that places cognitive science in conversation with literary theory, looking towards the start of a cognitive turn in adaptation studies. Specifically, I offer the axiom that adaptations are analogies. In other words, I advance the original argument that adaptations are the textual expression of the cognitive function of analogy. Here, I’m using a cognitive theory of analogy as the partial mapping of knowledge (objects and relations) from a source domain to a target domain. From this vantage point, I reassess the theoretical tensions and analytical practices of adaptation studies. For instance, the idea of essence is an anathema within academic studies of adaptation, yet it continues to hold sway within popular discourse. My approach allows for a productive return to essence, not as some mystical quality inherent in an original text and then indescribably transmitted to its adaptation, but as the expression of a key sub-process of analogical reasoning – what Douglas Hofstadter refers to, conveniently, as “essence” or “gist extraction.” This line of argument demonstrates the degree to which André Bazin’s 1948 theorization of adaptation is in line with this cognitive version of essence.

  • Judicial Profile: Abby Abinanti
    ABBY ABINANTI Abinanti's goal: to help youth who come before her Dennis J. Opatrny The Recorder December 17, 2002 A 12-year-old accused of prostitution is almost swallowed up by the chair she is sitting in as San Francisco Superior Court Commissioner Abby Abinanti reads her probation report. The judge notes the child is from Alameda County, which means her case is probably going to become that county's problem. "You intend to send her back?" Abinanti asks the juvenile probation officer. "Have you found a place to send her?" The answer is, not yet. "Try to find a place," the commissioner says, ordering the child to remain in San Francisco custody while the two counties work out where to place her. Abinanti says she has just one goal: to help the kids who come before her. "Like today, we have a prostitute who's in the fifth grade," Abinanti said. "Where am I supposed to send this kid?" Abinanti is presiding over the detention calendar at the Youth Guidance Center, where she must decide what to do with youthful offenders, many of whom have nowhere to go. Her job is probably one of the most difficult for a judge, since she often deals with pre-teens whose families have turned their backs on them. She must punish the child for his or her crime, while looking into the future to decide how to keep the youngster from becoming a habitual criminal. Abinanti laments the limited resources available to her. "The most difficult part of being out here is that people really don't understand juvenile law that well," Abinanti says in an interview.

  • 'Stayin' Alive in Da Club'1: the Illegality and Hyperreality of Mashups
    Journal of the International Association for the Study of Popular Music doi:10.5429/2079-3871(2010)v1i2.8en : ‘Stayin’ Alive in Da Club’1 The Illegality and Hyperreality of Mashups Liam Maloy Institute of Popular Music, University of Liverpool [email protected] Abstract Mashups are a specific type of sample-based music where ‘new’ songs are created entirely from ‘old’ recordings. They contain no ‘original’ material and are the most overt examples of intertextuality in popular music. Vocal and instrumental parts are separated from musical backing through the process of ‘unmixing’. Many of these extracts circulate freely (and often anonymously) on the Internet awaiting recombination with other samples. Following a brief history of mashup pioneers and an overview of its key players, I utilise a range of theoretical approaches to raise questions about originality and the role of the author as it pertains to entirely-sampled music. Permeating the essay are considerations of modernism and postmodernism. I suggest that the collaging, self-referential, ahistoric, postmodernistic tendencies of mashup creation are tempered by the outward-looking, inclusive, modernistic tendencies of DJ culture. Key words: Mashups; sampling; hyperreality; intertextuality; collage. Introduction Every piece of music is composed of ideas from previous pieces of music. Mashups are just a bit more direct and honest about it. Originality is purely a matter of degree (Joel Roseman, 2007, p. xvii). For every artist, borrowing and stealing is your trade. It’s the way you regurgitate that borrowing and stealing that makes the difference (Rose from The Pipettes, quoted in Costa, 2007). Jake Shears from the Scissor Sisters is singing Take Your Mama (Universal, 2004) but the effect is decidedly unfamiliar.

  • PRESENTS out of My Hands CHRISTOPHER O'riley
    PRESENTS Out of My Hands A NEW ALBUM FROM PIANIST CHRISTOPHER O’RILEY MUSIC BY REM, RADIOHEAD, PINK FLOYD, TORI AMOS, THE SMITHS, COCTEAU TWINS, PORTISHEAD & MORE RELEASE DATE: AUGUST 18 Featuring the single Heart Shaped Box by Nirvana NOW AVAILABLE ON ITUNES “As a huge fan of O'Riley's work with the Radiohead and Nick Drake catalogs, I am very impressed and honored that he chose to interpret this song.” - Michael Stipe, R.E.M. For Immediate Release, June 30, 2009 … Critically acclaimed concert pianist Christopher O'Riley releases Out of My Hands, a new album of his trademark piano interpretations of contemporary repertoire featuring compositions by Nirvana, REM, Radiohead, Pink Floyd, Tori Amos, The Smiths, Cocteau Twins, and Portishead, among others. These are based on his own groundbreaking transcriptions of the songs in question, following on the heels of his past readings of the finest in pop repertoire from Radiohead, Elliott Smith and Nick Drake. Along with his powerful interpretations of the Classical piano repertoire, these new performances exhibit how pianist Christopher O'Riley continues to stretch and redefine the possibilities of Classical music in our time. Out of My Hands features the single “Heart Shaped Box,” now available on iTunes, originally composed by Nirvana’s Kurt Cobain. The recording techniques employed exemplify Christopher O’Riley’s unique straddling of the Classical and rock music worlds: O’Riley performed on a Hamburg Steinway Model D piano with five microphones placed inside, as well as a 360 degree surround system known as the "Death Star," comprising seven additional microphones.
