Lapp 1 the Victorian Pseudonym and Female Agency Research Thesis
Lapp 1 The Victorian Pseudonym and Female Agency Research Thesis Presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for graduation with research distinction in English in the undergraduate colleges of The Ohio State University by Anna Lapp The Ohio State University April 2015 Project Advisor: Professor Robyn Warhol, Department of English Lapp 2 Chapter One: The History of the Pseudonym Anonymity disguises information. For authors, disguised or changed names shrouds their circumstance and background. Pseudonyms, or pen names, have been famously used to disguise one’s identity. The word’s origin—pseudṓnymon—means “false name”. The nom de plume allows authors to conduct themselves without judgment attached to their name. Due to an author’s sex, personal livelihood, privacy, or a combination of the three, the pen name achieves agency through its protection. To consider the overall protection of the pseudonym, I will break down the components of a novel’s voice. A text is written by a flesh-and-blood, or actual, author. Second, an implied author or omnipresent figure of agency is present throughout the text. Finally, the narrator relates the story to the readers. The pseudonym offers freedom for the actual author because the author becomes two-fold—the pseudonym and the real person, the implied author and the actual author. The pseudonym can take the place of the implied author by acting as the dominant force of the text without revealing the personal information of the flesh-and-blood author. Carmela Ciuraru, author of Nom de Plume: A (Secret) History of Pseudonyms, claims, “If the authorial persona is a construct, never wholly authentic (now matter how autobiographical the material), then the pseudonymous writer takes this notion to yet another level, inventing a construct of a construct” (xiii-xiv).

Issues in the Linguistics of Onomastics
Journal of Lexicography and Terminology, Volume 1, Issue 2 Issues in the Linguistics of Onomastics By Vincent M. Chanda School of Humanities and Social Science University of Zambia Email: mchanda@@gmail.com Abstract Names, also called proper names or proper nouns, are very important to mankind that there is no human language without names and, for some types of names, there are written or unwritten naming conventions. The social importance of names is also the reason why onomastics, the study of names, is a multidisciplinary field. After briefly discussing the multidisciplinary nature of onomastics, the article proves the following view stated and proved by many a scholar: proper names have a grammar that includes some grammatical features of common nouns. In so doing, the article shows that, like common nouns, proper names show cross linguistic differences. To prove that names do have a grammar which in some aspects differs from the grammar of common nouns, the article often compares proper names and common nouns. Furthermore, the article uses data from several languages in addition to English. After a bief discussion of orthographic differences between proper names and common nouns, the article focuses on the morphology, both inflectional and lexical, and the syntax of proper names. Key words: Name, common noun, onomastics, multidisciplinary, naming convention, typology of names, anthroponym, inflectional morphology, lexical morphology, derivation, compounding, syntac. 67 Journal of Lexicography and Terminology, Volume 1, Issue 2 1. Introduction Onomastics or onomatology, is the study of proper names. Proper names are terms used as a means of identification of particular unique beings.

COPYRIGHT in PSEUDONYMOUS and ANONYMOUS WORKS Ronan Deazley and Kerry Patterson
COPYRIGHT IN PSEUDONYMOUS AND ANONYMOUS WORKS Ronan Deazley and Kerry Patterson 1. Introduction The use of pseudonyms has a long-standing tradition in newspaper and magazine publishing. The Economist, for example, operates a well-established practice of editorial anonymity in that all of their columnists publish under pseudonyms such as Bagehot, Lexington and Schumpeter.1 This Guidance explains what is stated in the law about the authorship of works made under a pseudonym, and about the ownership of copyright in works created both anonymously and under a pseudonym, and considers the implications these presumptions have for rights clearance projects. 2. In Practice If the name of the publisher appears How is the work credited? on the work, the publisher is It is anonymous presumed to be the owner of the copyright until there is evidence to the contrary. A pseudonym is used No The author is presumed to be the owner of the copyright – ownership Is the author commonly of copyright depends on relationship Yes known by this pseudonym? between author and publisher Ask the publisher for information on Don’t Know the author, but if they cannot provide this information, the publisher is presumed to be the copyright owner. Within the pages of the Edwin Morgan Scrapbooks examined as part of this research project, there is one letter, cut from a newspaper letters page, which has been published under a pseudonym: Navigator. In it, the writer relates the experience of seeing a mysterious ‘aircraft’/UFO over Glasgow. So, what do the legal presumptions

Authors Pseudonyms in the Seventeenth Century: the Case of Gaspar Scioppio
AUTHORS PSEUDONYMS IN THE SEVENTEENTH CENTURY: THE CASE OF GASPAR SCIOPPIO Eustaquio Sánchez Salor The use of pseudonyms has a long history, but the seventeenth century is its quintessential century. This article will not go into the history of the literary pseudonym through this century, but I must, however, point out that among the reasons that have been given to explain the general use of the pseudonym, the fundamental one during the seventeenth century is to hide the real name, which may be considered praiseworthy, unlike the work headed by the pseudonym. That is, the pseudonym is used when the author writes something that either the author or his readers consider unworthy of his abilities. The author writes what his conscience encour- ages him to write, but that in his opinion does not enhance the fame of the real name. Such is the case with many clergymen and other good people of the seventeenth century who write reviews and satires that are unworthy of their social position and name. To avoid the clash between the work and the name of the author, they resort to the use of a pseudonym. A sig- nificant case is that of Jean-Baptiste Poquelin; as the son of a Parisian furniture merchant and the king’s upholsterer (“valet de chambre”), he was part of the Parisian bourgeoisie. In 1642 he graduated from the Uni- versity of Orleans as a lawyer, a profession that he never practised but which was useful for him to draw upon the plots of some of his works. In 1643, when he was twenty-one years old, he abandoned his middle-class past and decided to devote his life to the theater.

Judgments for Children
LAW RESEARCH BRIEFING #18 SEPTEMBER 2020 Judgments for Children Professor Kathryn Hollingsworth† Professor Helen Stalford* † Newcastle Law School, Newcastle University, UK * Liverpool Law School, University of Liverpool, UK This briefing is based on research reported in Stalford, H and Hollingsworth, K ‘“This case is about you and your future”: Towards Judgments for Children’ (2020) 83(5) Modern Law Review 1030-1058. This work developed from the Children’s Rights Judgments Project: www.CRJudgment.uk A handful of ‘child-friendly’ judgments have emerged in the UK in recent years. This briefing examines why the form and presentation of judicial decisions is an important aspect of children’s access to justice, and why judges have a duty to enhance children’s status and capacities as legal citizens through judgment writing. We identify four potential functions of judgments written for children (communicative, developmental, instructive and legally transformative), and call for greater attention to be paid to how judgments are constructed and conveyed with a view to promoting children’s access to justice. Introduction 1. It is now well recognised that adaptations need to be made to legal proceedings that involve children, so that their distinct needs and vulnerabilities can be accommodated. This notion is commonly referred to as ‘Child Friendly Justice’.1 However, in most justice proceedings, efforts to render the process ‘child friendly’ almost entirely focus on the procedures for the treatment of children pre-decision, particularly in the context of hearing evidence and enabling children to ‘feel’ part of the proceedings. But there is less focus, and much less clarity and certainty, on how the outcomes of legal proceedings – and in particular, legal judgments – are and should be communicated to the child.
