With the rise of mass media, such offenders also began sending verbal communications to journalists and the authorities. Unsurprisingly, the 21st century has seen alienated killers promote their violent actions and homicidal identities through online communications: from VLOGs to manifestos, even videos depicting murder and corpse mutilation.

  • Laura Crysel Being
    Stetson University Summer Grant Progress Report – Laura Crysel Being the “Catcher in the Rye”: What is the Harm in Challenged Books? To what extent does a controversial book affect the individual who reads it? Research has failed to address the causal effects of reading banned or challenged literature. There have been some changes to the project since my initial proposal. For example, I have spent the summer reviewing previous literature and collecting materials for my project, some of which are slightly different from those I originally planned to use. I tried to select materials that would reduce the burden on participants (fewer items) and would be as close to what I actually wanted to test as possible, rather than simply replicating previous research. I have also changed the project to reflect the current funding available, hoping to seek out more participants through connections with the ALA and local high schools. Moreover, I reduced the amount of money offered for participation in order to ensure the study will be sufficiently powered. Possibly due to the sensitive nature of the project, I have had difficulty getting the study approved by the IRB, but will begin collecting data once I have approval. I have attached materials below for a more comprehensive review of my progress. Literature Review Mark David Chapman associated J.D. Salinger’s “The Catcher in the Rye” with his assassination of John Lennon (CNN, 2013). This, along with the content of the book itself, made the book extremely controversial. The American Library Association (ALA) reports attempts to censor such controversial literature every year (http://www.ala.org/bbooks/frequentlychallengedbooks/top10).

Franczyk Deputy for Legal Education Assigned Counsel Program May 10th, 2021 INTRODUCTION How well a lawyer and client relate to each other in the context of legal representation depends on many factors including the complexities of the case, the chemistry between them, the client’s ability to communicate and the lawyer’s ability to listen to the client and accurately discern his/her objectives before developing and articulating a strategy for helping him/her achieve them. (See NY Rules of Professional Conduct [RPC] 1.2 [ALLOCATION OF AUTHORITY BETWEEN CLIENT AND LAWYER], and RPC 1.4 [COMMUNICATION]). As stated in RPC 1.2(a), “... a lawyer shall abide by the client’s decision concerning the objectives of the representation,” and, as required by Rule 1.4, “shall consult with the client as to the means by which they are to be pursed.

  • Coming of Age in the Global Village
    Oral Tradition, 2/1 (1987): 357-70 Coming of Age in the Global Village James M. Curtis I wish to analyze in this paper three acts of violence directed against public fi gures: Arthur Bremer’s attempt to assassinate George Wallace in 1972; John Hinckley, Jr.’s attempt to assassinate President Reagan in 1982; and Mark David Chapman’s unfortunately successful attempt to kill John Lennon in 1981. Each of these three acts was inextricably bound up with popular culture, and the sensibilities of the psychotic young men who committed them were formed by popular culture. Yet as of now we have no way of discussing or analyzing this relationship—much less of understanding or ameliorating it. To explain this situation, I turned to my favorite of Walter Ong’s books, The Presence of the Word (1967), where Father Ong reminds us that “The word moves toward peace because the word mediates between person and person. No matter how much it gets caught up in currents of hostility, the word can never be turned into a totally warlike instrument. So long as two persons keep talking, despite themselves they are not totally hostile” (192). It would seem, then, that if we could fi nd a way to analyze popular culture—and not simply praise or condemn it—we might be able to change its effects. Indeed, there is some evidence that this is the case. One psychological study (Leyens et al. 1976) showed that subjects who were taught to perceive violent movies aesthetically—in terms of composition and focus, for example—showed little if any change in their behavior after watching such movies.

  • Murder by the Book
    If books could kill: The brutal history behind using popular entertainment as a scapegoat for heinous acts Is there any definitive agreement today about the effects of violence in entertainment media? By David Hayes, The National Post, May 19, 2019 We’re all familiar with popular entertainment being blamed for crimes, especially those perpetrated by young people. Violent video games, especially “first- person shooters,” are popular targets today. For example, an addiction to Doom was blamed for why Columbine High School students Dylan Klebold and Eric Harris killed 12 of their classmates in April 1999, and an obsession with the Call of Duty franchise was thought to be the reason Adam Lanza killed 27 at Sandy Hook Elementary School in December 2012. TV predated video games. One infamous incident was an Edmonton-based aspiring filmmaker. Mark Twitchell, who, in 2011, lured a man to his home and dismembered him. Twitchell said he had been inspired by fictional forensic analyst Dexter Morgan, who led a double life as a serial killer in the series Dexter. In 1977, a 15-year-old who murdered his elderly next-door-neighbour, argued that his daily six to eight hours of TV viewing meant he couldn’t tell right from wrong, and investigators noted that the crime resembled one on gritty series Kojack, the boy’s favourite show. Movies have supposedly been the source of many crimes, like that of the Beltway snipers: 17-year-old Lee Boyd Malvo and 41-year-old John Allen Muhammad. In 2002, Malvo and Muhammad executed a series of coordinated attacks over eight months in 10 states that killed 17 people and wounded 10 more.

  • Mark Silverberg
    Mark Silverberg A Bouquet of Empty Brackets: Author-Function and The Search for J. D. Salinger At the beginning of "Seymour: An Introduction," in J. D. Salinger's last published book, writer/narrator Buddy Glass offers his hypothetical "general reader" a gift: . please accept from me this unpretentious bouquet of very early blooming parentheses: (((())}). I suppose, most unftorally, I truly mean them to be taken, first off, as bow legged-buckle-legged-omens of my state of mind and' body at this writing. (114) This bouquet of empty brackets is a telling gift from a writer who would soon disappear completely from the literary scene, leaving millions of bewildered readers with more questions than four empty brackets suggest. The search for J. D. Salinger, the New Hampshire recluse and native exile whom Harvey Swados once called "the Greta Garbo of American letters" (119), became something of a minor national obsession in the early 1960s. From 1961 to 1962 Time, Life, Newsweek, and The New York Post Magazine all conducted major "investigative" searches into the author's personal and public life. A reading public who had avidly consumed Salinger's three published books were extremely eager to "find" the author, and Salinger's refusal to give interviews, in fact to speak at all "outside the casino proper," as he called it, "of my fiction," 1 only helped to stir this curiosity. Ever since, Salinger has continued to live in seclusion behind a high fence, refusing to publish, to answer mail, or to respond in any way to his numerous admirers. SEARCHING FOR J.

  • The Double Fantasy Death of Lennon, Part 2
    #420 Ending the USSR to Build the Second Babel – The Double Fantasy Death of Lennon, part 2 This continues the story of the Lennon-Ono album Double Fantasy being a part of the history surrounding the December 8, 1980, murder of Lennon. • Mark David Chapman waited several more hours after John Lennon had signed his copy of Double Fantasy and departed for the recording studio after 5 p.m. At 10:50 p.m., the Lennon’s rented limousine pulled up in front of the Dakota. Yoko got out first, with John clutching a tape from their recording session in his hand. [Most sources mention one tape.] He was trailing a few steps behind. As he passed under the ornate archway leading to the building’s interior courtyard, a voice called out from behind: “Mr. Lennon.” John Lennon turned to see Mark David Chapman crouched in a combat stance less than twenty feet away. Five times his .38 fired at point- blank range, pumping four bullets into Lennon’s back and shoulder. Lennon staggered up the five steps to the entrance office and fell flat on his face, gurgling and bringing up blood. Yoko screamed, “John’s been shot! John’s been shot!” Jay Hastings, the front desk clerk, grabbed the phone for the police. Chapman made no effort to run or to escape. He threw down his gun, took off his overcoat and folded it up at his feet – and calmly began to read his paperback. The police soon arrived. Chapman was asked if the clothing on the ground was his.
