Martin Williams and the Armstrongian prophecy
No full textThis study examines the place of Louis Armstrong in the work of the jazz critic Martin Williams. By tallying Williams’s lasting interest in Armstrong from his teenage years to his last projects, the study shows that the critic’s focus on Armstrong’s rhythmic innovation depended on the argument that this particular aspect of Armstrong’s art was the major axis in the development of jazz history, an axis crucial to the emergence of other jazz musicians deemed most significant by Williams. The study further shows that Williams’s approach was most heavily influenced by the literary criticism of T. S. Eliot and the foundationalism of André Hodeir, and that Williams’s persistent interest in aesthetic lineage could be traced to the ambivalence he felt toward his own parentage.M.A.Includes bibliographical referencesby Michael Tom L

TOM: Why Isn’t Price Enough?
No full textIn an efficient market, differences in quality should be fully reflected in differences in price. This paper examines a highly active residential property market and verifies whether housing attributes can explain time on the market (TOM) in addition to prices. In contrast to the previous literature, only the price ratio and inflation factor are found to be critical in affecting TOM. An interpretation of the results is suggested, along with some directions for future research.TOM, price ratio, inflation factor, physical attribute, time aggregation
Hamburg's warehouse district in Martin tom Dieck's "hundert Ansichten der Speicherstadt"
No full textMost texts that deal with Martin tom Dieck’s black-and-white comic "hundert Ansichten der Speicherstadt" (Zürich: Arrache Cœur, 1997, French title: Vortex) claim that it depicts the eponymous warehouse district (Speicherstadt) in Hamburg. As this paper shows, this claim is inaccurate: although the architecture in tom Dieck’s drawings clearly refers to buildings in the warehouse district, the differences in the details are so obvious, that to speak of a straightforward depiction of the Speicherstadt is oversimplifying. After a brief comparison with Christoph Schäfer’s picture book "Die Stadt ist unsere Fabrik" (Leipzig: Spector Books, 2010), the paper concludes with a discussion of the depiction of urban environments in general and in tom Dieck's book in particular
“Part Woodcutter and Part Charlatan”:Tom Paulin’s Heidegger
No full textWhen the full extent of Martin Heidegger's commitment to Nazism emerged in the 1980s, the resulting 'Affair' provoked many poetic, dramatic and fictional treatments. In his substantial poem 'The Caravans on Lüneberg Heath' (1987), Ulster poet Tom Paulin initially responded with an impassioned critique, and he has returned to Heidegger several more times in his poetry and criticism. The result is one of the subtlest and most ambivalent treatments of the Heidegger case, which touches on some of Paulin's most urgent poetic concerns regarding hermetic language, 'dwelling without roots', and the role of the committed intellectual within an oppressive state
