Ventriloquism Days: In Conversation with David Mathew
No full textDavid Mathew is the author of three novels – O My Days, Creature Feature, and most recently Ventriloquists – and a volume of short stories entitled Paranoid Landscapes. His wide areas of interest include psychoanalysis, linguistics, distance learning, prisons and online anxiety. With approximately 600 published pieces to his name, including a novel based on his time working in the education department of a maximum security prison (O My Days), he has published widely in academic, journalistic and fiction outlets. In addition to his writing, he co-edits The Journal of Pedagogic Development (at the University of Bedfordshire, UK), teaches academic writing, and he particularly enjoys lecturing in foreign countries and learning about wine. He is a member of the Tavistock Society of Psychotherapists and Allied Professionals, Evidence Informed Policy and Practice in Education in Europe (EIPPEE), and the European Association for the Teaching of Academic Writing. He was also a member of The Health Technology Assessment programme (www.hta.ac.uk), as part of the NIHR Evaluation, Trials and Studies Coordinating Centre at the University of Southampton (2009-2013). We met at his home in the south-east of England in November 2014 to discuss his approaches to writing and his new novel, Ventriloquists
Fifty Forensic Fables
No full textThis book does for the legal profession in England what George Ade's fables do more broadly. These are enjoyable tales with pleasing caricatures. All the actors are humans. A funny appendix follows The Story of an Ancient Line through twelve generations. The book shows what fable meant earlier in this century.This is a hardbound book (hard cover)This book has a dust jacket (book cover)O (Theo Mathew
The Psalter in the Description of Jesus’ Passion from the Gospel of St. Mathew
No full textThe author focuses on the quotations from the psalms that we find in the description of Jesus’ Passion in the Gospel of St. Mathew. It turns out that almost all the quotations from the psalms (with the exception of 26, 64: Ps 109, 1 LXX) stress the human nature of Jesus, i.e. they are anthropologically oriented. The author discusses each of the seven quotations in the context of the psalm, and then in the context of Jesus’ Passion. Following partly the Gos¬pel of St. Mark, St. Mathew enhances in the reader a belief that Jesus in His Passion is the Suffering Just and the suffering poor Jehovah
Further Forensic Fables
No full textI had earlier found Fifty Forensic Fables, though in a republication by the original publisher in 1949. See my comments there. Again, these stories had all appeared in the Law Journal. Before the thirty fables, this volume, like the first, offers a table of cases cited and a table of statutes. Again, each story has an enjoyable newspaper-like caricature. One can get a good sense of these stories, I believe, by trying the second and third of them. In The Industrious Youth and the Stout Stranger (5), a con man looking like W.C. Fields hires the industrious youth and then borrows a sum of money from him. Of course the industrious youth never sees him again. In Mr. Whitewig and the Rash Question (9), the young Mr. Whitewig has established a very strong case when he asks one question too many of the Police Inspector, i.e., why he arrested the defendant. That question produces the records of nine previous convictions. There are twenty-six pages given to an index starting on 107. The covers are heavy boards with titles pasted on.This is a hardbound book (hard cover)By O (Theo Mathew
