Wit and Humor by George W. Jacobs Pdf

Excerpt from Wit and Humor: Classified Under Appropriate Subject Headings, With, in Many Cases, a Reference to a Table of Authors Scotch fit and Humor is a fairly representative collection of the type of wit and humor which is at home north of the Tweed - and almost everywhere else - for are not Scotchmen to be found everywhere To say that wit and humor is not a native of Scotch human nature is to share the responsibility for an inaccuracy the author of which must have been as unobservant as those who repeat it. It is quite true that the humor is not always or generally on the sur face - what treasure IS - and it may be true, too, that the thrifty habits of our northern friends, combined Wlth the earnestness produced by their religious his tory, have brought to the surface the seriousness amounting sometimes almost to heaviness - which is their most apparent characteristic. But under the surface Will be found a rich vein of generosity, and a fund of humor, which soon cure a stranger - if he has eyes to see and is capable of appreciation - of the common error of supposing that Scotchmen are either stingy or stupid. True, there may be the absence of the brilliancy which characterizes much of the English wit and humor, and of the inexpressible quality which is con tained in Hibernian fun; but for point of neatness one may look far before discovering anything to sur pass the shrewdness and playfulness to be found in the Scotch race. In fact, if Scotland had no wit and humor she would have been incapable of furnishing a man who employed such methods in construction as were introduced by the engineer of the Forth Bridge.

Lowering the Bar by Marc Galanter Pdf

What do you call 600 lawyers at the bottom of the sea? Marc Galanter calls it an opportunity to investigate the meanings of a rich and time-honored genre of American humor: lawyer jokes. Lowering the Bar analyzes hundreds of jokes from Mark Twain classics to contemporary anecdotes about Dan Quayle, Johnnie Cochran, and Kenneth Starr. Drawing on representations of law and lawyers in the mass media, political discourse, and public opinion surveys, Galanter finds that the increasing reliance on law has coexisted uneasily with anxiety about the “legalization” of society. Informative and always entertaining, his book explores the tensions between Americans’ deep-seated belief in the law and their ambivalence about lawyers.

Secretly Inside by Hans Warren Pdf

In the Dutch countryside the war seems far away. For most people, at least. But not for Ed, a Jew in Nazi-occupied Holland trying to find some safe sanctuary. Compelled to go into hiding in the rural province of Zeeland, he is taken in by a seemingly benevolent family of farmers. But, as Ed comes to realize, the Van 't Westeindes are not what they seem. Camiel, the son of the house, is still in mourning for his best friend, a German soldier who committed suicide the year before. And Camiel's fiery, unstable sister Mariete begins to nurse a growing unrequited passion for their young guest, just as Ed realizes his own attraction to Camiel. As time goes by, Ed is drawn into the domestic intrigues around him, and the farmhouse that had begun as his refuge slowly becomes his prison.
