Charles Stuart Parnell’s push for Home Rule and his subsequent fall from grace and the failed revolutions of the past still lingered in its collective conscience.

Stephen is uncomfortable with the closeness and does not seem to want to be understood, which explains why he sings the "Jew's Daughter" ballad. His acceptance or rejection of Bloom's hospitality is moot in my reading, since Bloom and Stephen have already been reunited as much as one can be in the fallen world (as reunited as a lapsarian Odysseus can be with Telemachos in a lapsarian Odyssey).

  • Top Quark Physics in the Large Hadron Collider Era
    Top Quark Physics in the Large Hadron Collider era Michael Russell Particle Physics Theory Group, School of Physics & Astronomy, University of Glasgow September 2017 arXiv:1709.10508v2 [hep-ph] 31 Jan 2018 A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Abstract We explore various aspects of top quark phenomenology at the Large Hadron Collider and proposed future machines. After summarising the role of the top quark in the Standard Model (and some of its well-known extensions), we discuss the formulation of the Standard Model as a low energy effective theory. We isolate the sector of this effective theory that pertains to the top quark and that can be probed with top observables at hadron colliders, and present a global fit of this sector to currently available data from the LHC and Tevatron. Various directions for future improvement are sketched, including analysing the potential of boosted observables and future colliders, and we highlight the importance of using complementary information from different colliders. Interpretational issues related to the validity of the effective field theory formulation are elucidated throughout. Finally, we present an application of artificial neural network algorithms to identifying highly- boosted top quark events at the LHC, and comment on further refinements of our analysis that can be made. 2 Acknowledgements First and foremost I must thank my supervisors, Chris White and Christoph Englert, for their endless support, inspiration and encouragement throughout my PhD. They always gave me enough freedom to mature as a researcher, whilst providing the occasional neces- sary nudge to keep me on the right track.

  • The Transformative Energy of Children's Literature
    Notes 1 Breaking Bounds: The Transformative Energy of Children’s Literature 1. I do not recognise Karin Lesnik-Oberstein’s insistence that the majority of academics who write about children’s literature are primarily concerned with finding the right book for the right child (Children’s Literature: New Approaches, 2004: 1–24). 2. Although publishing for children includes many innovative and important non- fictional works, my concern is specifically with narrative fictions for children. 3. See Rumer Godden’s entertaining ‘An Imaginary Correspondence’ featuring invented letters between Mr V. Andal, an American publisher working for the De Base Publishing Company, and Beatrix Potter for an entertaining insight into this process. The piece appeared in Horn Book Magazine 38 (August 1963), 197–206. 4. Peter Hunt raises questions about the regard accorded to Hughes’s writing for children suggesting that it derives more from the insecurity of children’s literature critics than the quality of the work: ‘It is almost as if, with no faith in their own judgements, such critics are glad to accept the acceptance of an accepted poet’ (2001: 79–81). 5. See Reynolds and Tucker, 1998; Trites, 2000 and Lunden, 2004. 6. Although writing in advance of Higonnet, Rose would have been familiar with many of the examples on which Pictures of Innocence is based. 7. By the time she reaches her conclusion, Rose has modified her position to empha- sise that ‘children’s literature is just one of the areas in which this fantasy is played out’ (138), undermining her claims that the child-audience is key to the work of children’s literature in culture.
