Reproductie Portret van een jonge jongen in zeemanskostuum - James Jebusa Shannon – Boeiende introductie In de fascinerende wereld van de kunst slagen sommige werken erin de essentie van onschuld en kinderlijke nieuwsgierigheid vast te leggen. De kunstdruk Portret van een jonge jongen in zeemanskostuum - James Jebusa Shannon is een perfect voorbeeld hiervan. Dit schilderij, doordrenkt met verfijning en charme, voert ons mee naar een wereld waar de tijd lijkt stil te staan. De jonge jongen, gekleed in zijn zeemanskostuum, roept zowel de frisheid van de kindertijd als het mysterie van verre kusten op. Door dit portret slaagt Shannon erin een intieme band te creëren tussen de toeschouwer en het onderwerp, en nodigt iedereen uit om de gedachten en dromen te verkennen die schuilgaan achter deze kinderachtige blik. Stijl en uniekheid van het werk De stijl van James Jebusa Shannon onderscheidt zich door zijn vermogen om realisme en impressionisme te combineren. In dit portret getuigen de minutieuze details van de zeemanskostuum van de jonge jongen van een indrukwekkende technische beheersing. De plooien van de stof, de textuur van de huid en de helderheid van de ogen worden weergegeven met een precisie die bijna doet vergeten dat het een schilderij betreft. Wat het werk echt uniek maakt, is echter de sfeer die ervan uitgaat. De zachte kleuren en delicate nuances creëren een visuele harmonie die de zachtheid van de kindertijd oproept. Shannon speelt vakkundig met het licht, waardoor een bijna tastbare dimensie aan het doek wordt toegevoegd. Zo kan de toeschouwer niet anders dan een emotionele connectie voelen met de jonge jongen, wiens uitdrukking lijkt een verhaal te vertellen dat veel groter is dan wat men op het eerste gezicht kan waarnemen. De kunstenaar en zijn invloed James Jebusa Shannon, geboren in 1862, was een Anglo-Amerikaanse schilder wiens werk sterk werd beïnvloed door de artistieke bewegingen van zijn tijd. Opgeleid aan de École des Beaux-Arts in Parijs, wist hij de lessen van het realisme te integreren terwijl hij de elementen van het impressionisme eigen maakte. Zijn unieke benadering van portretschilderkunst maakte hem tot een gewaardeerde kunstenaar, in staat niet alleen de fysieke verschijning vast te leggen, maar ook de ziel van zijn onderwerpen. Door zijn werken heeft Shannon bijgedragen aan het herdefiniëren van het moderne portret.Shipping Notes

Great Read
Great book, I enjoyed reading it. I am non-lawyer so I spent time having to read and re-read sentences and paragraphs but darn good book. Highly recommend it. Sometimes a person can be in discussion with an official, doctor, lawyer, cop ..whatever--it helps to remember arguments made in this book. Most folks just try to explain a situation, heaven forbid standing in front of a court or judge in a legal matter. But, this type of reading builds confidence, a strong vocabulary and so forth. It matters most trying to persuade a person or an institution..just winning, making your point in a clear coherent and cognizant way. This book can teach you these things.

You don't have to like Justice Scalia to like his book.
Perhaps an appellate brief that you wrote would have been perfect if only the judge had read it. The lesson you learned, hopefully, was that there is no guarantee that a judge will read your brief. The lesson you can learn from "Making Your Case" is how to write so that the judges will read what you wrote - preferably before your oral argument. Writing in a quite candid, lucid and entertaining style, Scalia and Garner serve up tips that even the most experienced lawyers can learn from. If you find yourself approaching the court's word limit, for example, you may be minimizing the chances of having your brief read, as judges really do favor brevity. How do you write for a court that is notoriously dismissive of higher court precedents? How do you best respond to a judge who asks whether you would be content with a remand? These and other critical questions are addressed simply yet insightfully. If your legal education stressed the IRAC approach (Issue, Rule, Application, Conclusion), Scalia and Garner take you a step further by stressing a syllogistic approach. Even if you have already been exposed to all the best ideas about persuading appellate judges, you are still likely to gain much rom reading "Making Your Case" because the authors organize all those ideas in a way that makes them much easier to remember and keep them in mind as you prepare your written and oral arguments. Justice Scalia calls his approach to legal reasoning and argument "textualism," which I understand to mean that his decisions are driven by the language of the law and of the case. My impression from reading many of his decisions is that he is often driven by ideology, so I can't quite square his book with his decisions. I also question the book's fundamental statement that the overriding objective of a brief is to make the court's job easier, as I prefer to write primarily for the purpose of winning the case. My criticisms of "Making Your Case" are miniscule compared to those thrown at it by Richard Posner. But although I find Judge Posner's decisions generally more fair than those of Justice Scalia, I prefer the clarity of Justice Scalia's writing - especially when he teams up with Bryan Garmer. Judge Posner notwithstanding, Scalia and Garner have put together a gem that is likely to prove invaluable for law students as well as for trial and appellate lawyers who are still interested in improving their game. If you fall into either category, buy this book, read it two or three times, and then keep it handy as a reference. It should help you make your case.

Elegant, useful
Simply the best book on legal persuasive writing ever written.
Interesting, useful, fun, full of great anecdotes. Terrific discussion of statutory interpretation. Great references to scholarly classical treatises on rhetoric. This book is wonderful both for its analysis of oral argument and for its discussion of written forms of persuasion, like briefs. I wish I had had it earlier.
My only complaint is the same one I have with virtually all modern style manuals: they advocate a simplistic prose style, characterized by short, conversational sentences, avoiding unusual words, eschewing Latin phrases. But I personally often find prose that breaks these rules a refreshing change. I enjoy reading a word or phrase I rarely see but that is perfectly chosen. And I enjoy learning new words or phrases. This book would condemn two of the greatest legal prose stylists out there: John Marshall and Learned Hand, both of whose opinions often contained sentences that would not work so well conversationally, that were full of long, convoluted sentences and classical allusions. My sense is that in this joint work Justice Scalia, who can write rich and interesting prose, pushed back against some of the simplifying strictures of his co-author.
Furthermore, I think that often too much emphasis on simple words and sentences serves to make more complex ideas too difficult to express or to understand. Thus, the book (like most books) argues against "jargon," but jargon, once learned, is often a much clearer way of expressing something than a rephrasing.
And the Roe v. Wade anecdote is great! It explains a lot...
In any case, I am hardly qualified to criticize Justice Scalia, whose writing is far beyond my own. Anyway, this is a great book.
