Bench in the Garden: An Inquiry into the Scopic History of a Bench - Jako - Bog - Oro Editions - Plusbog.dk

Bench in the Garden: An Inquiry into the Scopic History of a Bench - Jako - Bog - Oro Editions - Plusbog.dk

The bench: a functional object that rarely features at the forefront of our minds, even when we are sitting on one in a garden. And yet (as this book will reveal) benches have surprising significance, regarding the specific places where they operate, and in a more general sense. The bench is more than a convenient sitting point. It is the domain where aesthetics, garden history, architecture, spatiality and subjectivity interfere. The bench acts as a powerful visual machine and regulates the reception of surrounding landscapes to its visitors. By transmitting verbal messages (through inscriptions), citing other benches and being part of a complex walk circuit, by providing rest and inviting its users to discover new aspects of the site, the bench is a highly polysemic element of a garden, which orients and disorients the visitor simultaneously.

Lotty's Bench - Gerben Post - Bog - KIT Publishers - Plusbog.dk

Lotty's Bench - Gerben Post - Bog - KIT Publishers - Plusbog.dk

In Amsterdam alone there have been more than eighty monuments created that have something to do with the Holocaust. In addition, there are still many locations that tell parts of the story of the persecution of the Jews: Buildings, squares, and streets that were once silent witnesses to the darkest page in the citys history. The stories behind the monuments and locations come together In Lotty''s Bench. In 95 vignettes, it becomes clear how inextricably linked the city of Amsterdam still is with the history of the persecution of its Jews. 26 August 1945: Lotty Veffer arrived in Amsterdam. She was the only member of her family to have survived the war. Her parents and younger sister Carla had been gassed in Sobibor. There was no heartfelt welcome for her, and eventually she was forced to spend her first night back home in Amsterdam on a park bench on the Apollolaan. In September 2017, the then 96-year-old Lotty was honored with her own monument, a bench on the exact same spot where she had spent that first night. This is only one of the many locations in the city that continues to remind us of the persecution of the Jews. Lotty passed away on Friday 27 July 2018.

Paths to the Bench - Dale Brawn - Bog - University of British Columbia Press - Plusbog.dk

Paths to the Bench - Dale Brawn - Bog - University of British Columbia Press - Plusbog.dk

A lawyer wanting to become a judge in early 20th-century Manitoba could attract the attention of his peers through his work – but it was a friendship with a powerful mentor that got him to the bench. In Paths to the Bench, Dale Brawn looks at the appointments and careers of early judges who were charged with laying the legal foundations of a province. By looking at both official records and correspondence from this era, Brawn uncovers the highly political nature of the judicial appointment process and the intricate bonds that ensured that judges acquired the values not of their society, but of their fellowship groups. A fascinating look at the careers of practical, hard-headed, and influential judges, Paths to the Bench is also an incisive study of the political nature of Canada’s judicial appointment process.

Lessons From the Bench - Gillian Hussey - Bog - Gill - Plusbog.dk

Lessons From the Bench - Gillian Hussey - Bog - Gill - Plusbog.dk

‘Long before her retirement, Judge Gillian Hussey had been conferred with the status of “legend of the bench”. This book gives a wonderful insight into the complex demands and balances that confronted her day in, day out. It’s a fascinating and informative read that will hold your attention to the very end.’ John Lonergan, author and former Governor of Mountjoy Prison When Gillian Hussey started out in Bridewell District Court in 1984, little did she realise that she would deal with some of the most notorious criminals in Ireland, including the Kinahans, the Cahills, ‘The Monk’ and John Gilligan. As one of Ireland’s first female judges, Gillian was very much a woman in a man’s world. Unafraid to look beyond the courtroom, she always sought to better understand the human – not just the criminal – who stood before her in the dock. Through her work, Gillian spent a lifetime learning about people, society and herself. This fascinating insight into the career of a trailblazing woman reveals the inner workings of Ireland’s criminal courts, explores the changes in Irish society and shares some timeless truths learned from almost 20 years on the bench.

Governing from the Bench - Emmett Macfarlane - Bog - University of British Columbia Press - Plusbog.dk

Governing from the Bench - Emmett Macfarlane - Bog - University of British Columbia Press - Plusbog.dk

Despite the Supreme Court of Canada’s crucial role in the country’s legal system, many Canadians are in the dark about the inner workings of this institution. In Governing from the Bench, Emmett Macfarlane draws on interviews with current and former justices, former law clerks, and other staff members of the court to shed light on the institution’s internal environment and decision-making processes. Challenging dominant theoretical and methodological approaches that fail to examine individual or structural forces that affect the court’s decisions, he explores the complex role of the Supreme Court as an institution; exposes the rules, conventions, and norms that shape and constrain its justices’ behaviour; and situates the court in its wider governmental and societal context. At once enlightening and engaging, Governing from the Bench is a much-needed and comprehensive exploration of an institution that touches the lives of all Canadians.

Mills was a solid player who loved the game, but he had only one shot in nearly five years at making Nebraska''s starting team. He found little time or energy left for academics after hours of drills, weight lifting, and team meetings. Now, with complete candor, Mills lays bare the true weight of emphasis in the "student-athlete" dichotomy. Free from anger or malice, Mills tells of his struggle to come to terms with a sports career of "mediocrity."

Liar's Bench - Kim Michele Richardson - Bog - Kensington Publishing - Plusbog.dk

From the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of The Book Woman of Troublesome Creek, Kim Michele Richardson''s atmospheric, beautifully written debut transports readers to a time and place where the KKK is still a power, the South is struggling to find itself, women are exploring new freedom, and teenagers are caught between old and new ways of growing up. A story of first love, raw courage, and truths that won''t be denied, set against a Southern backdrop passing uneasily from bigotry and brutality to hope in 1970''s Kentucky. In 1972, on Mudas Summers'' seventeenth birthday, her beloved Mama, Ella, is found hanging from the rafters of their home. Most people in Peckinpaw, Kentucky, assume that Ella''s no-good husband did the deed. Others think Ella grew tired of his abuse and did it herself. Muddy is determined to find out for sure either way, especially once she finds strange papers hidden amongst her mama''s possessions. But Peckinpaw keeps its secrets buried deep. Muddy''s almost-more-than-friend, Bobby Marshall, knows that better than most. Though he passes for white, one of his ancestors was Frannie Crow, a slave hanged a century ago on nearby Hark Hill Plantation. Adorning the town square is a seat built from Frannie''s gallows. A tribute, a relic—and a caution—it''s known as Liar''s Bench. Now, the answers Muddy seeks soon lead back to Hark Hill, to hatred and corruption that have echoed through the years—and lies she must be brave enough to confront at last. Kim Michele Richardson''s lush, beautifully written debut is set against a Southern backdrop passing uneasily from bigotry and brutality to hope. With its compelling mystery and complex yet relatable heroine, Liar''s Bench is a story of first love, raw courage, and truths that won''t be denied.
