It is precisely from this crudity that the film itself gains a credibility of “ realism .” In an interview with Michael Bliss, De Palma notes “ Black, Baby was rehearsed for almost three weeks ...

Bliss ’ s system was explained in his work Semantography ( 1949, 2nd ed.

In his work Semantography Bliss had not provided a systematic set of definitions for his symbols ( there was a provisional vocabulary index instead ( 1965, pp. 827 – 67 )), so McNaughton ’ s team might often interpret a certain symbol in a way that Bliss would later criticize as a “ misinterpretation ”.

For example, they might interpret a tomato as a vegetable — according to the English definition of tomato — even though the ideal Blissymbol of vegetable was restricted by Bliss to just vegetables growing underground.

Nevertheless, in 1977 Bliss claimed that this agreement was violated so that he was deprived of effective control of his symbol system.

According to Okrent ( 2009, p. 190 ), there was a final period of conflict, as Bliss would make continuous criticisms to McNaughton often followed by apologies.

Bliss stated that his own work was an attempt to take up the thread of Leibniz ’ s project.

The Bliss bibliographic classification ( BC ) is a library classification system that was created by Henry E. Bliss ( 1870 – 1955 ), published in four volumes between 1940 and 1953.

Bliss had a lifelong interest in the organization, structure and philosophy of knowledge and was very critical of the library classification systems that were available to him.

The system was not without its flaws ( the result of being largely a one-person project ), and the layout of Bliss ’ s text was difficult to read.

Part of the reason for its success was that libraries in teachers ’ colleges liked the way Bliss had organized the subject areas on teaching and education.

In 1967 the Bliss Classification Association was formed.

Its first publication was the Abridged Bliss Classification ( ABC ), intended for school libraries.

Printed by Elam Bliss of New York, it was labeled as " Second Edition " and included a page saying, " To the U. S. Corps of Cadets this volume is respectfully dedicated.
