Book Given Time

    Book Details:
  • Author : Jacques Derrida
  • Publisher : University of Chicago Press
  • Release : 1992-11-15
  • ISBN : 9780226143132
  • Pages : 204 pages

Download or read book Given Time written by Jacques Derrida and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1992-11-15 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is giving possible? Is it possible to give without immediately entering into a circle of exchange that turns the gift into a debt to be returned? This question leads Jacques Derrida to make out an irresolvable paradox at what seems the most fundamental level of the gift's meaning: for the gift to be received as a gift, it must not appear as such, since its mere appearance as gift puts it in the cycle of repayment and debt. Derrida reads the relation of time to gift through a number of texts: Heidegger's Time and Being, Mauss's The Gift, as well as essays by Benveniste and Levi-Strauss that assume Mauss's legacy. It is, however, a short tale by Baudelaire, "Counterfeit Money," that guides Derrida's analyses throughout. At stake in his reading of the tale, to which the second half of this book is devoted, are the conditions of gift and forgiveness as essentially bound up with the movement of dissemination, a concept that Derrida has been working out for many years. For both readers of Baudelaire and students of literary theory, this work will prove indispensable.

Book The Art of Making Money

Download or read book The Art of Making Money written by Jason Kersten and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2009-06-11 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Read Jason Kersten's posts on the Penguin Blog. The true story of a brilliant counterfeiter who "made" millions, outwitted the Secret Service, and was finally undone when he went in search of the one thing his forged money couldn't buy him: family. Art Williams spent his boyhood in a comfortable middle-class existence in 1970s Chicago, but his idyll was shattered when, in short order, his father abandoned the family, his bipolar mother lost her wits, and Williams found himself living in one of Chicago's worst housing projects. He took to crime almost immediately, starting with petty theft before graduating to robbing drug dealers. Eventually a man nicknamed "DaVinci" taught him the centuries-old art of counterfeiting. After a stint in jail, Williams emerged to discover that the Treasury Department had issued the most secure hundred-dollar bill ever created: the 1996 New Note. Williams spent months trying to defeat various security features before arriving at a bill so perfect that even law enforcement had difficulty distinguishing it from the real thing. Williams went on to print millions in counterfeit bills, selling them to criminal organizations and using them to fund cross-country spending sprees. Still unsatisfied, he went off in search of his long-lost father, setting in motion a chain of betrayals that would be his undoing. In The Art of Making Money, journalist Jason Kersten details how Williams painstakingly defeated the anti-forging features of the New Note, how Williams and his partner-in-crime wife converted fake bills into legitimate tender at shopping malls all over America, and how they stayed one step ahead of the Secret Service until trusting the wrong person brought them all down. A compulsively readable story of how having it all is never enough, The Art of Making Money is a stirring portrait of the rise and inevitable fall of a modern-day criminal mastermind. Watch a Video

Book Heath s Infallible Counterfeit Detector at Sight

Download or read book Heath s Infallible Counterfeit Detector at Sight written by Laban Heath and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2019-01-14 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Heath's Infallible Counterfeit Detector at Sight: The Only Infallible Method of Detecting Counterfeit, Spurious, and Altered Bank-Notes, and Applicable to All Banks in the United States and Canadas, as Now in Circulation, or That May Be Issued In presenting a third revised edition of the Counterfeit De tector to the public, I wish to add a few remarks enabling the reader more fully to understand its import. Having had unlimited experience in the detection of counterfeit and altered bank-notes, I felt the necessity of placing this knowledge within the reach of all; and during the regime of the old State Bank ing System I issued my first work, which met with such favor from the public, that it reached the enormous sale of twentv five thousand copies, and would have exceeded this number had not the whole currency of the country been changed to treasury notes, known as greenbacks, or legal-tenders, and national bank-bills. This change gave apparent security for a time; but hopes of safety were suddenly dispelled by the appearance in our midst of counterfeit treasury notes, so nicely executed that they were received by our leading banks as genuine notes. This, together with the numerous and dangerous counterfeits of the new national currency, induced the author to apply to the Secretary of the United States Treasury for certain cuts and dies used on the legal - tenders and other' national bills. The officers of the leading Bank Note Engraving Companies were consulted upon the subject, and after a thorough investigation permission was granted, on condition that the dies should be so mutilated as to prevent all possibility of counterfeiters mak ing any use of them in their nefarious business, and yet pre serving the symmetry of the work.
