    Dress, law and naked truth : a cultural study of fashion and form

    No full text
    Why are civil authorities in so-called liberal democracies affronted by public nudity and the Islamic full-face 'veil'? Why is law and civil order so closely associated with robes, gowns, suits, wigs and uniforms? Why is law so concerned with the 'evident' and the need for justice to be 'seen' to be done? Why do we dress and obey dress codes at all? In this, the first ever study devoted to the many deep cultural connections between dress and law, the author addresses these questions and more. His responses flow from the radical thesis that 'law is dress and dress is law'. Engaging with sources from The Epic of Gilgamesh to Shakespeare, Carlyle, Dickens and Damien Hirst, Professor Watt draws a revealing history of dress and civil order and offers challenging conclusions about the nature of truth and the potential for individuals to fit within the forms of civil life

    On the geometry of regular hyperbolic fibrations

    No full text
    Hyperbolic fibrations of View the MathML source were introduced by Baker, Dover, Ebert and Wantz in [R.D. Baker, J.M. Dover, G.L. Ebert, K.L. Wantz, Hyperbolic fibrations of View the MathML source, European J. Combin. 20 (1999) 1–16]. Since then, many examples were found, all of which are regular and agree on a line. It is known, via algebraic methods, that a regular hyperbolic fibration of View the MathML source that agrees on a line gives rise to a flock of a quadratic cone in View the MathML source, and conversely. In this paper this correspondence will be explained geometrically in a unified way for all q. Moreover, it is shown that all hyperbolic fibrations are regular if q is even, and (for all q) every hyperbolic fibration of View the MathML source which agrees on a line is regular.Matthew R. Brown, Gary L. Ebert, and Deirdre Luyck
