Small Episodes, Big Detectives
Small Episodes, Big Detectives A genealogy of Detective Fiction and its Relation to Serialization MA Thesis Written by Bernardo Palau Cabrera Student Number: 11394145 Supervised by Toni Pape Ph.D. Second reader Mark Stewart Ph.D. MA in Media Studies - Television and Cross-Media Culture Graduate School of Humanities June 29th, 2018 Acknowledgments As I have learned from writing this research, every good detective has a sidekick that helps him throughout the investigation and plays an important role in the case solving process, sometimes without even knowing how important his or her contributions are for the final result. In my case, I had two sidekicks without whom this project would have never seen the light of day. Therefore, I would like to thank my thesis supervisor Toni Pape, whose feedback and kind advice was of great help. Thank you for helping me focus on the important and being challenging and supportive at the same time. I would also like to thank my wife, Daniela Salas, who has contributed with her useful insight, continuous encouragement and infinite patience, not only in the last months but in the whole master’s program. “Small Episodes, Big Detectives” 2 Contents Introduction ...................................................................................................................... 4 1.

DRAFT Staff Report
COMMISSION FOR HISTORICAL & ARCHITECTURAL PRESERVATION Brandon M. Scott Tom Liebel, Chairman Chris Ryer Mayor Director STAFF REPORT February 9, 2021 REQUEST: Construct rear/rooftop addition with front deck/balcony ADDRESS: 223 E. Churchill Street (Federal Hill Historic District) APPLICANT: Jim Shetler, AIA, Trace Architects OWNER: Andrew Germek STAFF: Walter W. Gallas, AICP RECOMMENDATION: Approval with final details to be reviewed and approved by CHAP staff SITE/HISTORIC DISTRICT General Area: The property is located in the Federal Hill Historic District on the south side of E. Churchill Street in a block bounded by William Street on the west, Warren Avenue on the south, and Battery Street on the east. (Images 1-2). Comprising about 24 city blocks with street names retained from its original colonial settlement, Federal Hill is located just south of the Inner Harbor. At its northeast corner, Federal Hill Park rises steeply from Key Highway overlooking the downtown skyline. The neighborhood retains intact streets of largely residential properties reflecting the eras in which they were built and the economic status of their early residents. Site Conditions: The existing property is a narrow two-bay two-story masonry house with a shallow side-gabled roof. The three windows at the façade are 6/6. The first floor window and the front door with transom have jack arches. Along the east side of the house is a narrow walkway accessing the rear, and which has an easement enabling access to the rear yards of houses on Warren Avenue (Images 3-5). The house appears on the 1890 Sanborn map, looking like the smallest house on the block, with two stories and a one-story rear addition (Image 6). -
Notes for an Unwritten Biography of William Trevor

Sampson: "Bleak Splendour": Notes for an Unwritten Biography of William Tr "Bleak Splendour": Notes for an Unwritten Biography of William Trevor By DENIS SAMPSON IILITERARY BIOGRAPHERS," William Trevor has ren1arked, "often make the mistake of choosing the wrong subjects. A novelist-or any artist admired for what he produces, may not necessarily have lived anything but the most mundane of lives" (Excursions 176). His remark is a warning to any prospective biographer of Trevor himself, his way of implying that his own life has no worthwhile story. Yet the warning has its own paradoxical interest, for surely it is Trevor's particular gift to make literature out of the mundane. His refusal to dramatize the artistic self, to adopt heroic or romantic postures, somehow allows him to absorb and honor his mundane material, to find a tone that mirrors the inner lives of his unheroic characters. The consistency of that tone is his major accomplishment, according to John Banville: "his inimitable, calmly ambiguous voice can mingle in a single sentence pathos and humor, outrage and irony, mockery and love.... He is almost unique among n10dem novelists in that his own voice is never allowed to intrude into his fiction" (Paulson 166-67). -

But when he drank, he was dishonest and destructive. Her mother was a free spirit who abhorred the idea of domesticity and didn’t want the responsibility of raising a family. Angela’s Ashes Frank McCourt So begins the luminous memoir of Frank McCourt, born in Depression-era Brooklyn to recent Irish immigrants and raised in the slums of Limerick, Ireland. Frank’s mother, Angela, has no money to feed the children since Frank’s father, Malachy, rarely works, and when he does he drinks his wages. Yet Malachy — exasperating, irresponsible, and beguiling — does nurture in Frank an appetite for the one thing he can provide: a story. Frank lives for his father’s tales of Cuchulain, who saved Ireland, and of the Angel on the Seventh Step, who brings his mother babies. Buried Onions Gary Soto For Eddie there isn’t much to do in his rundown neighborhood but eat, sleep, watch out for drive-bys, and just try to get through each day. His father, two uncles, and his best friend are all dead, and it’s a struggle not to end up the same way. -

Reported in the Court of Special Appeals Of
REPORTED IN THE COURT OF SPECIAL APPEALS OF MARYLAND No. 1949 September Term, 1999 KENDRICK ORLANDO CHARITY v. STATE OF MARYLAND Moylan, Wenner, Byrnes, JJ. OPINION BY MOYLAN, J. Filed: June 8, 2000 If there is a lesson to be learned from this case, it is that when the police are permitted a very broad but persistently controversial investigative prerogative,1 they would be well advised, even when not literally required to do so, to exercise that prerogative with restraint and moderation, lest they lose it. In Whren v. United States, 571 U.S. 806, 116 S. Ct. 1769, 135 L. Ed. 2d 89 (1996), the Supreme Court extended law enforcement officers a sweeping prerogative, permitting them to exploit the investigative opportunities presented to them by observing traffic infractions even when their primary, subjective intention is to look for narcotics violations. The so-called “Whren stop” is a powerful law enforcement weapon. In utilizing it, however, officers should be careful not to attempt to “push out the envelope” too far,2 for if the perception should ever arise that ”Whren stops” are being regularly and immoderately abused, courts may be sorely tempted to withdraw the weapon from the law enforcement arsenal. Even the most ardent champions of vigorous law enforcement, therefore, would urge the police not to risk “killing the goose that lays the golden egg.” 1 See Whitehead v. State, 116 Md. App. 497, 500, 698 A.2d 1115 (1997). See also David A. Harris, Whren v. United States: Pretextual Traffic Stops and “Driving While Black,” The Champion, March 1997, at 41. -
William and Margaret Mecum House
7NPS Form 10-900-a (Rev. 8/2002) OMB No. 1024-0018 United States Department of the Interior William and Margaret MecumPut Here House National Park Service Name of Property Salem, New Jersey County and State National Register of Historic Places Patterned Brick Houses of New Jersey Continuation Sheet Name of multiple listing (if applicable) Section number 7 Page 1 Description Narrative Summary paragraph The William and Margaret Mecum House (Photo 1) consists of a two-story, three-bay, patterned brickwork house, built in 1737 and enlarged about 1770, featuring a Flemish checker brick façade and vitrified brick initials and construction date in the southwest gable peak. The house has been expanded several times, most recently in 1958 when a single-story in-law suite was added to its southwest end. The nominated property, encompassing 20.5 acres north of Lighthouse Road in Pennsville Township, Salem County, includes the area immediately surrounding the house and a long, tree-lined driveway (Photo 2) extending to the house from the road. In addition to the house, the property includes several early 20th century abandoned agricultural outbuildings none of which contribute to the architectural significance of the property and none of which is enumerated in this nomination. The property also contains the sites of eighteenth and nineteenth century farm outbuildings of which archaeological deposits can be considered likely. Property Details The house presently consists of four major sections and a rear shed-roofed porch addition (Photo 3). The core of the house is the 1737 two-story, patterned brickwork block (Plate 4). A second brick block, two bays wide and matching in height, lacking patterning is attached to the northeast end of the original block. -
