  • Petr Osolsobě Sir Thomas More
    PETR OSOLSOBĚ SIR THOMAS MORE: LESS COLLABORATIVE, MORE SHAKESPEAREAN Is Sir Thomas More, in all its fortuitous dramatic unity, the subtle symmetries of its characters, and its network of cross-references a collaborative work? As far as modern editors are concerned, there is a measure of agreement that the original play was the work of Anthony Munday and Henry Chettle, and was completed around 1592-94. Its manuscript contains a number of rewritten and additional passages, attributed to Chettle, Heywood, Dekker and Shakespeare. Gabrieli and Melchiori, in their admirable 1990 Revels edition of Sir Thomas More, support the assumption: playwriting at the time, at least for the public stage, was a collaborative practice between men of letters and actors and the men of the theatre, frequently on the basis of a ‘plot’ devised by a single author[. Besides,] all the extant or lost plays connected with Munday’s name [...] are written in collaboration. (Gabrieli and Melchiori 1990: 13) Munday’s claim to authorship is, furthermore, supported by his access to Harpsfield’s Life of More as well as to other rare recusant literature used in the play; Munday was the right-hand man of Richard Topcliffe, a notorious priest-catcher under Queen Elizabeth, and his close ‘collaborator’ in arresting and executing Roman Catholic priests Edmund Campion, Ralph Sherwin and Alexander Briant in 1581 (Gabrieli and Melchiori 1990: 8). Moreover, Munday was familiar with Latin tags and quotations which are abundant in the original text, always correct in spelling, grammar and syntax, owing to his daily usage of Latin during the months he spent as a spy in the Catholic English College in Rome from February to May 1579.

    “Let America Be America Again.” O, let America be America again— The land that never has been yet— And yet must be—the land where every man is free. The land that’s mine—the poor man’s, Indian’s, Negro’s, ME— Who made America, Whose sweat and blood, whose faith and pain, Whose hand at the foundry, whose plow in the rain, Must bring back our mighty dream again. …… O, yes, I say it plain, America never was America to me, 2016 And yet I swear this oath— ANNUAL America will be! REPORT …… Langston Hughes 1902 - 1967 2016: Watchdog at the intersection of rights and liberties Dear Members and Supporters, A key to ACLU of Maryland’s impact is the intersection between civil liberties and civil rights that characterizes our work. Again and again, we see that when an individual’s rights are violated, a larger community is affected. And when we take up cases or campaigns that address more than one threat we are able to create a greater, more long-lasting change. The First Amendment was under threat when activist Kwame Rose was wrongfully arrested during a protest following the announce- ment of a mistrial in the case that charged Baltimore Police Officer William Porter in the death of Freddie Gray. But Rose was initially targeted for arrest because he had been organizing support for greater accountability in cases of police misconduct. Throughout the history of the nation, and recent history in Maryland, when the state police spy on the activities of peaceful protestors, ACLU has been a watchdog at the intersection of police abuse of power and the freedoms of speech and association promised in the First Amend- ment.
