Mill advances the audacious argument that “the sole end for which mankind are warranted … in interfering with the liberty of action of any of their number, is self-protection.” Thus, he demands “liberty of … conscience … in the most comprehensive sense,” of which freedom of expression and the press are “practically inseparable” parts. Of all the works written in defense of free speech, and of liberalism more broadly, few have been as celebrated as John Stuart Mill’s On Liberty, which is widely regarded as the definitive source for free speech advocacy. Mill defines it, to be regarded as so precious? The condition of human life is such that we must of necessity be restrained and compelled by circumstances in nearly every action of our lives.

Can human character change fundamentally, or is it, in the words of one protagonist, “like those sticks of rock: bite it all the way down, you’ll still read Brighton”? What are the limits of “the. The book’s central mysteries, however, are moral and metaphysical, not plot-based. Uncertainty hovers over whether justice will, indeed, prevail, and also how many more murders might be needed to remove witnesses of the first. Greene achieves narrative suspense by innovative means: tantalising concealment from the reader - and even from Fred’s killers - of exactly how he dies. Thanks to a clock on Brighton Pier, we even know the precise time of Fred’s death. From the outset, we know exactly who murdered Fred and why. The death of the former crime reporter Fred Hale at the hands of mobsters early in its pages is no normal “whodunnit”. The novel offers a richly textured sketch of gang wars in Brighton in the 1930s, and yet defies the conventions of detective fiction. Greene’s conflicted evaluation reflects something of the novel itself: a mood of twisting ambivalence runs through Brighton Rock from first to last. yet perhaps it is the best I ever wrote.” So opined Graham Greene, looking back in 1970 on his work of 1938. “ BRIGHTON ROCK began as a detective story and continued, I am sometimes tempted to think, as an error of judgement. The admission, in the final minutes of the show, that MF had missed the importance of “Rule of Law” blew my mind. But it would have been helpful to have a more critical (little c) look at his work and how it would address current challenges. I know you knew MF and that he’s been taking a bit of a public discourse beating and he’s not around to defend himself which, as you highlighted, he would do well. This episode disappointed me because I found it overly fawning. Nonetheless, I have maintained a libertarian (small l) streak in me since. It offered a logical system that would allow stronger bottom-up processes to address human needs that was simultaneously anti-heriarchical, anti-racist, and pro-human development. The Free to Choose TV series came out when I was 16 and I loved it. I’ve been loving EconTalk but I must say I was disappointed by this episode. And a brief turn at New York City’s School of Visual Arts and a Manhattan workshop, staffed by the Marvel artists he adored as a child, only confirmed for Sale his love of the West Coast. His only formal education was a two-year stint at the University of Washington. The passions he’s accumulated inform his conversation - littered with references to the Beatles and vintage film noir - as well as his work. Be it through luck, fate, elbow grease or sly calculation, Sale’s managed to create a successful career out of illustrating the cape-and-cowl crowd exactly the way he wants to, in a style distilling a century’s worth of influences, in all manner of popular media.īorn in Ithaca, New York, Sale grew up in Seattle (evident, to the ears of this East Coast city dweller, in his calm, thoughtful speech patterns), and on a steady diet of comics and pop culture. That’s one of the unique things about comic-book artist Tim Sale. Today’s mainstream superhero comics aren’t exactly known for nourishing the careers of artists who are quick to ignore the latest fashion.

What is it about this 16th-century play that has had such a lasting impression on readers and audiences? Read on to find out more about William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet. While George Cukor’s 1936 film, Franco Zeffirelli’s 1968 movie, and Baz Luhrmann’s modern (for 1996) adaptation are some of the best known big-screen interpretations of the rivalry between the Montagues and the Capulets, West Side Story is yet another take on the tale. There have been musical versions, opera renditions, and more than 100 film and TV versions of the play. William Shakespeare's tragic story of two star-crossed lovers has been adapted hundreds-if not thousands-of times over the years, and not always exactly in the Bard’s own words. It’s safe to say that there are few people on Earth who don’t know the story of Romeo and Juliet.

However it kept me fully absorbed throughout, aided by the narration of the wonderful Harriet Walter. Slowly the looming tragedy unfolds, and now, as an adult looking back, Faith realises the meaning of things her younger self had not understood, so that she comes to comprehend why Vera did what she did… From that point, she gradually leads us through her own coming of age, and we see how her perceptions of her aunts change as she matures. Faith takes the reader back to when she was a young girl and sent to live with Vera and her sister to escape the bombing of London. Faith Severn has grown up with the dark cloud of murder looming. Many years later her niece, Faith, is approached by a journalist who is planning to write a book about Vera’s crime and punishment, and wants Faith to tell him what she remembers of the events, and of the people who were involved.
