Other works...

Second, how do those self-authorizing gestures impact upon the construction of gender, class, and ethnic...

On December 19, 1601, John Croke, then Speaker of the House of Commons, addressed his colleagues: "If a question should be asked, 'What is the first and chief thing in a Commonwealth to be regarded?'
