Jacob Viner’s Reminiscences from the New Deal (February 11, 1953)
No full textThis paper presents and reproduces an unpublished oral history interview given by Jacob Viner in 1953. The interview released by Viner for the Columbia Oral History Project gives us a valuable opportunity to throw light on his advisory activity during the New Deal Era. In our introduction we attempt to make a critical appraisal of Viner's reminiscences and to state the contribution they can provide to our general knowledge of the period. In addition, we also attempt to find out some biographical and interpretative elements useful to understand Viner’s own vision and his contribution to important economic policy processes during the New Deal.

Diatessaron in the Syriac Acts of John / Jacob of Serug and the Diatessaron
No full textThis volume contains two short studies, originally printed in the Journal of Theological Studies, on the Diatessaron and Syriac literature. In the first, Connolly examines the evidence on the data and order of two biblical passages in the Syriac Acts of John in comparison with some other places in Syriac literature, such as Ephrem’s commentary on the Diatessaron, the Old Syriac Gospels, and Solomon of Basra’s Book of the Bee. In the second investigation, he looks at some material from Jacob of Serug showing his use of the Diatessaron or Old Syriac Gospels over against the Peshitta. Both studies suggest some lines of alteration that had taken place in the Arabic Diatessaron. Readers who study the history of the Gospels in Syriac and their reception and use in Syriac literature will find these two studies of interest

A comparison of Richard Wagner's Der ring des Nibelungen and William Morris's Sigurd the volsung
No full textThe thesis compares the text of Wagner's Der Ring des Nibelungen with
the epic poem Sigurd the Volsung by William Morris.
Chapter I begins with an outline of the question under discussion, namely, whether Sigurd the Volsung could have been written as an anti-ring. The rest of the thesis discusses various questions of interpretation which may help towards an answer to this question. Chapter II is devoted to a discussion of the sources in mediaeval literature of the Ring and Sigurd the Volsung , while Chapters III and IV discuss the poetic diction and imagery used by Wagner and Morris in their poems, examining the differences and similarities between the poetic devices used; special attention is paid to the use of metaphor. Chapters V to IX examine in closer detail the
presentation of the chief characters in the Ring and Sigurd, while Chapter X, the final chapter, sums up what has been presented in the previous chapters and concludes
that there is considerable evidence in favour of the hypothesis that Sigurd was written as an anti-Ring
Correspondence from Jacob C. Kellem to Daniel R. Porter, 1973
No full textThe sender, Jacob C. Kellem, disagrees with the opinion expressed and provides reasoning based on Condition 2 of the loan agreement between the Ohio Historical Society and Ms. Pauline A. Young. Condition 2 stipulates that Ms. Young retains all literary rights to the papers. The letter asserts that the society failed in its duty to prevent the public, including those ordering single copies, from violating these rights. Jacob C. Kellem seeks prompt advice on compensation and prevention of future violations. The letter also mentions the potential modification of the existing agreement and Ms. Young's intent to stand firm on her rights while considering a reasonable compromise. The sender requests clarity on whether further legal action will be necessary to uphold Ms. Young's rights
