Hudson Minnesota Supreme Court Musical Selection Lumina Memorials Presented to the Court Kathleen M. Murphy Chair, Bar Memorial Committee Presentation Accepted Court Adjourned Music by Laurie Leigh Harpist April 30, 2021 Presented by the Hennepin County Bar Association in collaboration with the Hennepin County District Court ABOUT THE BAR MEMORIAL The Hennepin County Bar Association and its Bar Memorial Committee welcome you to this Special Session of the Hennepin County District Court to honor members of our profession with ties to Hennepin County who passed away. We have traced the history of our Bar Memorial back to at least 1898, in a courthouse that is long gone, but had a beauty and charm that made it a fitting location for this gathering. We say “at least 1898,” because there is speculation that the practice of offering annual unwritten memorials began in 1857. Regardless of its date of origin, the Bar Memorial is now well into its second century, and it is a tradition that is certain to continue simply because it is right— and it is good. Buildings come and go, but the Bar Memorial has always found a suitable home, including in the chambers of the Minneapolis City Council, the boardroom of the Hennepin County Commissioners, and in Judge James Rosenbaum’s magnificent courtroom.

  • What Literature Knows: Forays Into Literary Knowledge Production
    Contributions to English 2 Contributions to English and American Literary Studies 2 and American Literary Studies 2 Antje Kley / Kai Merten (eds.) Antje Kley / Kai Merten (eds.) Kai Merten (eds.) Merten Kai / What Literature Knows This volume sheds light on the nexus between knowledge and literature. Arranged What Literature Knows historically, contributions address both popular and canonical English and Antje Kley US-American writing from the early modern period to the present. They focus on how historically specific texts engage with epistemological questions in relation to Forays into Literary Knowledge Production material and social forms as well as representation. The authors discuss literature as a culturally embedded form of knowledge production in its own right, which deploys narrative and poetic means of exploration to establish an independent and sometimes dissident archive. The worlds that imaginary texts project are shown to open up alternative perspectives to be reckoned with in the academic articulation and public discussion of issues in economics and the sciences, identity formation and wellbeing, legal rationale and political decision-making. What Literature Knows The Editors Antje Kley is professor of American Literary Studies at FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg, Germany. Her research interests focus on aesthetic forms and cultural functions of narrative, both autobiographical and fictional, in changing media environments between the eighteenth century and the present. Kai Merten is professor of British Literature at the University of Erfurt, Germany. His research focuses on contemporary poetry in English, Romantic culture in Britain as well as on questions of mediality in British literature and Postcolonial Studies. He is also the founder of the Erfurt Network on New Materialism.

  • PASSING of TOM BOYER We Are Saddened to Share the Passing Of
    October 12, 2018 Visit us online at www.wpma.com WP-10-12-18 -18 -16 PASSING OF TOM BOYER -13 -08 We are saddened to share the passing of Tom Boyer, 73, owner of Treasure Valley Coffee Company in Boise, Idaho. He passed away September 30, 2018 in a grassy Owyhee County Idaho valley with his dog, Ellie. Tom was a long-time supporter of WPMA and has exhibited at the WPMAEXPO for almost 20 years. Tom was born in Bremerton, Washington and moved to Boise with his family as a child. Tom’s life-long love affair with the Owyhee mountains began early when his father Henry took the family there for outdoor adventures; fishing, hunting and hiking. After working 15 years for Boyd’s Coffee of Portland, Oregon, Tom moved back to Boise in 1984 and started Treasure Valley Coffee with his wife, Carol and son, Greg. Tom’s love of sales, service and great coffee was a winning combination for 34 years, leaving a blueprint for success that will continue to flourish in his memory. Tom’s sanctuary was the wilderness. He loved hiking, fishing, boating, water and snow skiing, off road dirt bikes, bicycling, exploring trails in his ATV, or just driving down the road and spotting a hawk. Whether flying in the back country to camp or for a fly-in breakfast, he loved being in the air. Tom flew for many work events, which was a great time saver. He enjoyed being a part of the close-knit Idaho Aviation community. A memorial service will be held for Tom on Saturday, October 13th at 1:00 p.m.
