Download or read book Some Mistakes have No Pardon written by Girdhar Joshi and published by Quills Ink Publishing. This book was released on 2014-06-04 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a story of a man who struggles to find love, peace, and happiness in relationships but ends up losing relations after relations amidst the compelling pressures of profession, passion, and maladjustment of life. Two important points highlighted in the pages of this story are: one – how a boy with a deprived childhood that blossomed and bloomed on bottle-gourd curry and pumpkin gods of grandmother and butter-milk and mint chutney of orphaned granny, could still create riches and achieve literary enlightment – the rags-to-riches story. And, two – how strains of wretched and ill managed relations could undo every achievement, cause him strive to look for shelter elsewhere, and knock down the person into the nadir of disgrace and eventually brink of extinction – the riches-to-ashes story. These two ends are the central themes in this story, which are woven in through the warp and weft of incidences.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Martha Minow is a voice of moral clarity: a lawyer arguing for forgiveness, a scholar arguing for evidence, a person arguing for compassion.” —Jill Lepore, author of These Truths In an age increasingly defined by accusation and resentment, Martha Minow makes an eloquent, deeply-researched argument in favor of strengthening the role of forgiveness in the administration of law. Through three case studies, Minow addresses such foundational issues as: Who has the right to forgive? Who should be forgiven? And under what terms? The result is as lucid as it is compassionate: A compelling study of the mechanisms of justice by one of this country’s foremost legal experts.

Download or read book Theaters of Pardoning written by Bernadette Meyler and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2019-09-15 with total page 411 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Gerald Ford's preemptive pardon of Richard Nixon and Donald Trump's claims that as president he could pardon himself to the posthumous royal pardon of Alan Turing, the power of the pardon has a powerful hold on the political and cultural imagination. In Theaters of Pardoning, Bernadette Meyler traces the roots of contemporary understandings of pardoning to tragicomic "theaters of pardoning" in the drama and politics of seventeenth-century England. Shifts in how pardoning was represented on the stage and discussed in political tracts and in Parliament reflected the transition from a more monarchical and judgment-focused form of the concept to an increasingly parliamentary and legislative vision of sovereignty. Meyler shows that on the English stage, individual pardons of revenge subtly transformed into more sweeping pardons of revolution, from Shakespeare's Measure for Measure, where a series of final pardons interrupts what might otherwise have been a cycle of revenge, to later works like John Ford's The Laws of Candy and Philip Massinger's The Bondman, in which the exercise of mercy prevents the overturn of the state itself. In the political arena, the pardon as a right of kingship evolved into a legal concept, culminating in the idea of a general amnesty, the "Act of Oblivion," for actions taken during the English Civil War. Reconceiving pardoning as law-giving effectively displaced sovereignty from king to legislature, a shift that continues to attract suspicion about the exercise of pardoning. Only by breaking the connection between pardoning and sovereignty that was cemented in seventeenth-century England, Meyler concludes, can we reinvigorate the pardon as a democratic practice.
