1990réf. 804251990. Wiener Martin J. Reconstructing the Criminal: Culture Law and Policy in England 1830-1914. Cambridge England; New York: Cambridge University Press 1990. ix 381 pp. illustrations. Publisher's black cloth with stamped spine very good. In a fine dust jacket. $25. This ambitious and imaginative work interprets criminal justice history by relating it to intellectual and cultural history. Starting from the assumption that policies and statutes originate in a society's values and norms the author skillfully and persuasively demonstrates how changes in criminal law and penal practice were related to the changing values of early mid and late Victorian and Edwardian society. Wiener traces changes in the criminal justice system by examining the treatment of offenders. During the Victorian period the system became more punitive and then reformed to be more welfarist. This work offers insight into the contemporary Anglo-American penal system. In addition Wiener's wide-ranging discussion of issues most notably of free will versus determinism sheds light on a broad range of Victorian history beyond crime and punishment.

Copy belonging to actor Peter Haskell with his manuscript annotations throughout and his shooting schedule laid in. Mary Ellen Bute's final film and the first cinematic adaptation of James Joyce's masterfully complex work of fiction. Shot over a two year period Bute was tasked with transforming Joyce's impenetrable prose without losing any of the work's surreal lyrical essence. The subsequent film maintains the original novel's oneiric style. Bute and her husband Ted Nemeth were longtime collaborators and Nemeth worked as both cinematographer and producer of the film. In 1965 it was honored at the Cannes Film Festival as Best Debut and remains Bute's sole feature length film. Shot on location in New York City and Dublin. Brown untitled wrappers.

Two light scratches on rear board otherwise an excellent copy. xiv 2 239 pp. Extensive notes bibliography and index follow text. Charts the resettlement of the Ukrainian capital after Nazi occupation and the returning Soviet rulers' efforts to retain political legitimacy. Kyiv as Regime City charts the resettlement of the Ukrainian capital after Nazi occupation focusing on the efforts of returning Soviet rulers to regain legitimacy within a Moscow-centered regime still attending to the warfront. Beginning with the Ukrainian Communists' inability to both purge their capital city of "socially dangerous" people and prevent the arrival of "unorganized" evacuees from the rear this book chronicles how a socially and ethnically diverse milieu of Kyivans reassembled after many years of violence and terror. While the Ukrainian Communists successfully guarded entry into their privileged elite ranks and monitored the masses' mood toward their superiors in Moscow the party failed to conscript a labor force and rebuild housing leading the Stalin regime to adopt new tactics to legitimize itself among the large Ukrainian and Jewish populations who once again called the city home. Drawing on sources from the once-closed central regional and local archives of the former Soviet Union this study is essential reading for those seeking to understand how the Kremlin reestablished its power in Kyiv consolidating its regime as the Cold War with the United States began.
