“…The earliest examples are not rooted merely in suspicion, but in the openly-expressed desire to exercise authority over the hearts and minds of others, and many modern examples of suspicion-based criticism retain more than a trace of that original impulse. But if we can learn to hear their voices once again, the poems considered here have more than enough power to fight back against such entrenched ways of reading-not merely through the brilliance of their surfaces, 112 but through the passionate depths of their engagements with the love that was once called fin'amor. Such loveoften forbidden by those who would be obeyed-is presented by the poets as a temptation, a seduction, a siren's call to the too-easily missed die Deutsche Nation, ed.…”

“…Every other student in the group condemned that idea, and the discussion was quickly dropped. 112 Though Stephen Best and Sharon Marcus claim that "[i]n the last decade or so, we have been drawn to modes of reading that attend to the surfaces of texts rather than plumb their depths" ("Surface Reading: An Introduction". Representations, 108: 1 [Fall 2009], 1-2), the trends of the last decade and a half seem ephemeral when compared to a style of reading and interpretation that has held sway for over two millennia.…”

This book emerges from multiple experiences and perspectives: teaching students at California State University and the University of California; leaving a religious tradition, and leaving a country and an entire way of life; extensive written and verbal conversations with people from all over the world-from the Middle East, Africa, Sri Lanka, Western Europe, the former Soviet Union, and the Asian Pacific Rim; and finally, an attempt to understand what has happened to the study of poetry, especially love poetry, in modern literary education. Our thanks go out to Alessandra Tosi, Lucy Barnes and Francesca Giovannetti at Open Book Publishers, who worked tirelessly with us on the manuscript to make this book possible. Thanks are due especially to Nazanin Keynejad, who read and commented upon the first draft of this book, and to Modje Taavon, who provided valuable insight into the similarities between the early modern European and contemporary Middle Eastern cultures. Special thanks are also due to

“…Within such a context, in the Pfunders case, the Commission stated that, 'the obligations undertaken by the High Contracting Parties in the Convention are essentially of an objective character.' 70 In addition to the objective character of the obligations, the effectiveness principle functions to provide the provisions of the treaty their fullest weight and effect, consistent with the language used and with the rest of the text. 71 Moreover, '[t]he consistency has already been brought about by the Convention itself, insofar as the rule "lex posterior derogat legi priori" is not applied in their mutual relations.…”

The focus of this discussion centres on the derogation clause of the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) 1 , i.e. Article 15. This is a complex legal provision that is comprised of various aspects. These aspects are discussed in detail and critically analysed throughout the course of this work. The first aspect of Article 15 to be analysed is the important issue of when a national authority can derogate from its obligations under the Convention. The essay then proceeds to consider the importance of the principles of proportionality and necessity with regard to the measures taken by national authorities during states of emergency. The discretion left to States regarding derogation as a result of the vague wording of the clause along with the principle of the margin of appreciation is then discussed. Next, the issues of consistency of derogations with international obligations and of non-derogable rights are critically analysed. This study concludes with a discussion of the principle of notification and how this principle can be used to safeguard against the use of the derogation clause.Comprehensive understanding of Article 15 requires the detailed examination of a multitude of issues. The article is divided into five sections. The first section addresses the question of when a State can derogate from its obligations under the ECHR in time of war or other such public emergencies as threaten the life of a nation. The concept of 'time of war' is discussed in detail here, as are those elements which constitute a public emergency threatening the life of the nation. The next section discusses that second important criterion which validates derogations under the ECHR; namely, the fact that the measures taken during states of emergency by the national authorities be 'strictly required by the exigencies of the situation'. The importance of the principles of proportionality and necessity as regards this criterion is fully analyzed. The following section focuses upon the element of discretion vis-à-vis derogation left to States by the vague language of the ECHR. It offers further critical analysis of the principle of 'margin of appreciation' as it has been employed in cases of derogation. The next section centres upon the consistency of the derogation with other international legal obligations. It is noteworthy that this

“…The high-tech microsurgical instruments have fine tips with better apposition, are lightweight with better grip. 4 The development of fine intraocular instruments such as forceps and scissors have further refined pediatric cataract surgery and allow procedures to be performed in closed chamber. Improved instrumentation has allowed improved manipulation in even the smallest pediatric eyes.…”
