"Is Shakespeare Any Good? is refreshingly honest and controversial, a lucid and sometimes startling assessment of what makes literature, as well as a much-needed breath of fresh air within the locked room of literary study. This volume constitutes a vital contribution to the ongoing debate on literary aesthetics and proposes an entirely new methodology for the study of literature as well as a convincing apology for English as a subject. Bradford has a gift for making complex ideas simple and shining light into dark corners." --Madelena Gonzalez, University of Avignon --"Richard Bradford has produced a pugnacious and carefully constructed critique of modern attitudes to the vexed question of how we should set about evaluating literary texts. Its insistence on the desirability of that much maligned abstract `taste' is thoroughly to be applauded." --D.J. Taylor, Author of Orwell: The Life, winner of the Whitbread Biography Prize --After reading a few pages of a book, you might find yourself gripped, moved, bored, or -- in the case of far too many literary "classics" -- somewhat astonished that it ever got into print at all. While initial impressions are often influenced by personal literary tastes, one may also be reacting to writing that is very good -- or genuinely bad. But who decides what constitutes "good" literature? If you wish to know the reasons why a book is considered good or bad, you'd be hard-pressed to find the answers in a university literature course. Exploring issues that academics have studiously avoided for years, Is Shakespeare Any Good? reveals why certain literary works and authors are treated as superior to others, and boldly questions the literary establishment's criteria for creating an imperium of "great" writers. --Author Richard Bradford shows us how to articulate our own informed opinions on the qualities or deficiencies of a literary work -- whether the author in question is James Joyce, Jeffrey Archer, or the Bard of Avon himself. Also covered are: self-appointed arbiters of taste in the literary world; academia's wretched influence in shaping literary merit (or to be more accurate its failure to say anything relevant); whether popular literature's bad rap is warranted; does reading and studying literature do us any good?; the dreadful legacy of modernism; and more. It also asks this frank question of one of literature's greatest sacred cows -- who says we can't dislike Shakespeare? Lively and provocative, Is Shakespeare Any Good? is certain to raise a few eyebrows while elevating the level of debate about the true nature of literary merit. --Book Jacket"

"Abstract:Experts from a range of disciplines identify the key barriers to a definition of moral respect that includes nonhuman animals"

"By the eighteenth century, the term 'sublime' was used to communicate a sense of unfathomable and awe-inspiring greatness, whether in nature or thought. The relationship of sublimity to classical definitions of beauty was much debated, but the first philosopher to portray them as opposing forces was Edmund Burke (1729–97). Originally published in 1757 and reissued here in the revised second edition of 1759, this influential treatise explores the psychological origins of both ideas. Presented as distinct consequences of very separate emotional lineages, beauty and sublimity are traced back through a web of human feelings, from self-preservation instincts to lust. Burke's doctrine of the sublime was to have far-reaching effects. In Britain, it informed perceptions of landscape in art and literature for years to come. Meanwhile, on the continent, Kant regarded Burke as 'the foremost author' in 'the empirical exposition of aesthetic judgments'."

"Penelitian dilakukan untuk mendapatkan gambaran lebih lanjut mengenai perikatan yang terjadi dalam proses perpindahan pemain dalam olahraga sepakbola. Penelitian dilakukan dengan metode yuridis normatif, yaitu dengan memperhatikan perjanjian yang dibuat oleh para pihak serta peraturan-peraturan yang berlaku di dalam dunia olahraga sepakbola, peraturan FIFA, PSSI, dan peraturan Liga. Disamping itu juga analisis tidak lupa dilakukan terhadap peraturan perundang-undangan Indonesia yang berlaku terkait bidang olahraga yaitu Undang-undang Nomor 3 tentang Sistem Keolahragaan dan Peraturan Pemerintah No. 16 tahun 2007. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa perikatan yang terbentuk dari proses perpindahan pemain merupakan suatu perjanjian campuran, yaitu percampuran antara perjanjian jual beli serta perjanjian persetujuan baru yang mana pengaturannya tidak terdapat dalam Kitab-Undang-Undang Hukum Perdata.

The study was conducted to obtain further description of the engagement that occurs in the moving process of football players. The study was conducted with normative juridical method, namely taking into account the agreement made by the parties and the regulations in world football, FIFA rules, PSSI, and League rules. This study also analyzed Indonesian laws and regulations about sports namely the Law No. 3 of 2005 about The Sports System and the Government Regulation No. 16 of 2007.
